Your experiences with the younger generation are inspiring, rather impressive to me as...

We were all a bit younger, by 10 years, and I ran "Horror on the Hill", a classic in my book. All went smoothly until they routed a small camp of goblins and hobgoblins. That went well actually with the exception of a survivor... the one that got away.  So the somewhat banged up group decides that they should leave the area, and head up a nearby hill.And gather a large bonfire's worth of wood.And light it... I'm sad to say I did mention that the night air was a bit chill.The idea of the bonfire appealed to them on some youthful-pyromania level I suppose... so much so that the increasingly blatant warnings by INT and WIS rolls, and finally a gift from the DM - 'that's a big fire up here on the hill.'It's all met with bad rolls, worse interpretation of warnings and finally a complete ignoring of that idiotic Dad of theirs, of course it's a big fire, that's the point!So the goblish army crept up the hill, and . . . well lets just say that if you ask any of them about camp-fires they will quickly either change the subject or demand that you not do so on a hill. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> [/sblock]Looking forward to the conclusion, Merry Christmas!</blockquote>
