Summary

  • Mine with Zirris' Tomb
    • Outside the mine
      • Cass and Magfeel play cards with the kobolds
      • Cards match Amim's cards' description and have lewd Dwarf ladies on them.
      • Magfeel tries to up the ante to win the card deck.
      • They are not doing well.
      • Cass offers money for them, but fails negotiating, driving the price up.
      • Cass steals them via Mage Hand with Magfeel providing a distraction.
    • Inside the mine
      • Zix wants something for Star Metal.
      • Based on Usunaar's observations, Elzaren advises offering a lower than fair amount, but in copper pieces so the offer seems better.
      • Agrees to 600 CP per pound of Star Metal.
      • There are some insults from the Kobolds that Umud barely tolerates after Elzaren's intervention.
      • Umud demands additional money for lost equipment and miners.
        • Usunaar recommends paying it off through labor instead of existing assets. Umud agrees.
      • A miner becomes angry because a friend was killed by kobolds.
      • Usunaar, Elzaren, and Church are eventually able to cool everyone off.
      • Negotiations conclude, but two kobolds come running out, indicating some sort of crazy lights from the tomb. The whole party gathers inside there.
      • Points of light coalesce into a winged form, like a living constellation.
      • A dragon face of Zirris gazes at the party and congratulates us on returning his skull and bringing peace to enemies.
      • Zirris mentions the Storm Giant Bylaster fell the city that stood there, which he laments.
      • He says the Elven Ghosts will no longer trouble Camp Theod.
      • Within his chest, five points of light form a Charm of Nightguard for each of us.
      • We assure Zirris that Kobolds will not defile his tomb.
      • The party tells Umud that the Elven Ghosts will no longer be a problem.
      • Usunaar explains to Zix that there will be consequences if they disturb the tomb. He suggests that they worship Eranil, but to no avail.

    • Preparing to go to the Gloommire.
      • Coach is not viable in the swamp.
      • Might need antitoxin.
      • The party discusses scouting out the Tower of Dramorn.
    • Going to see Father Cyne about antitoxin.
      • He is digging up a coffin, but it is just filled with rocks.
      • It was a placeholder for a dead miner, which was created to obfuscate that miners were going missing, not just dying in accidents.
      • He has antitoxin, but we do not buy because Usunaar has healing powers.
      • His tent has a symbol of a sun rising over a road, the symbol of Lathander.
      • Church buys different color powder to put into vials, but the party does not know why.
    • Elzaren embelishes his tale for drinking miners. Cass comes with.
      • The story is met with mixed results.
      • Made 16 SP busking.

    • Usunaar talks to Sir Aaron Colesmith about the camp defenses.
      • Tells him the party is leaving tomorrow for the Gloommire.
      • Scouts have not returned in expected time.
      • Sir Aaron Colesmith wants to patch up holes in the wall and erect a tower on the north side of camp. He needs more lumber, though, but the Inkwoods are too dangerous.
    • Magfeel goes for a walk outside of camp.
      • Two red glowing eyes are watching him from high in the canopy.
      • A raspy woman's voice asks him to join them.
      • He asks it to come out, but it receeds into the woods.
      • He checks in at the gate, but goes back to the woods.
      • He is able to track its path, determining it is a large, bipedal creature: likely an Ogre.
    • Church goes to the tent to wait out the day.
