Logan disappears from sight within the thicket.
The troll reaches Kurnos, and lifting his club high is about to smash the minotaur, when the furtive shape of Alek appears from the side, helping the minotaur up with impressive strength. The troll is disoriented and surprised, and the pair capitalizes on it, quickly fleeing among the undergrowth. Despite Alek’s heroic rescue, the troll doesn’t lose peace, and keeps advancing after the heroes, drving them astray in several directions, as it seems to change its mind on which adventurer could prove more delicious. Zaroch makes himself a tasty option, crawling among the trees. Never had the wizard run so fast, troll in tail.
Meanwhile, Ilse is completely lost, wandering alone in the forest, as is Boris, who mutters to himself, trying to find a way back.
After hours of exhausting chase, the sun starts to rise in the sky. As if it were a dire foe, the troll shields its eyes from the light, and quickly makes his way towards his cave, giving impressive jumps, that make the earth tremble. The exhausted heroes wander why the creature wouldn’t use such a feat in the chase. Either way they were happy it didn’t or they would have been all troll dinner.
Skill encounter lost! The troll didn't manage to catch you, but separated the group and tired them all! You all lose 2 HS, and can't rest now.
And finally, daylight. But the heroes are scattered, Alek and Kurnos are still together, but the others are alone in the woods. They would quickly realize the importance and safety of numbers.
As Boris went by, slashing vines and branches with little concern for environmental laws, he accidentally slashes a nest. The nest promptly falls to the ground and shatters. It was made of some sort of clay. The puzzled warrior takes a closer look, when he notices a stirge crawling out of it, and then two, and three, and a thousand! Putting his feet to good use, the warrior flees again, with the swarm of critters behind him. Eventually he thinks he has lost the bloodsuckers, but then feels something nudge on his armor. There were two of the things attached to his back! With a quick shake and dance and shake he manages to take them off, and ready to slice them!
Kurnos and Alek have a different dilemma. None of them is a tracker, and they don’t know which direction the others took, as they fled the irate troll. As they search for clues to find their companions, they unknowingly get near the nest of a pair of spiretop drakes! The creatures scream and jump into the air, flying menacingly towards them!
Zaroch is much more careful. His taciturn and silent frame moves through the woods like a shadow. He jumps over a fallen tree, ducks beneath a low branch, and steps on a purple stone that starts to move. Wait, move? The wizard quickly steps down from the stone, as a sting fly by his face. Just in time! What seemed like a stone was a sleeping giant scorpion!
Ilse walks, daydreaming as always. She moves gracefully among the vegetation. This forest somehow reminds her of her master, of the days when he took her to the woods to commune with the spirits of the wild. She remembers the glowing red lamp hanging from a willow tree; the only thing she could make out in the darkness of the night. Just like that red glowing thing hanging from that willow tree… Wait a moment, that thing has legs!
Logan is an expert tracker and a dweller of the wilderness. He expertly navigates the forest, following the tracks of Kurnos. He is quite concentrated, and doesn’t notice the predatory eyes staring at him from the shadows. An animal like this would have never attacked the full party, but Logan was alone, and the feline had to eat someday… A cougar (not to be confused with a promiscuous woman) jumps out of the bushes!
