Session 13 Recap

After surviving the ambush by a pack of Gnolls you continued escorting Renart Black's shipment of timber from Eyjara to Skalavik with Domu the Driver. Before you could set off, Kildrin managed to catch up with you carrying Lyastina on her back. She found two wooden rings in Lyastina's pocket, and put them both on.Continuing along the road you cautiously approached the wreckage of "Hilreon's Wonderful and Extraordinary Circus Show" which was blocking the path ahead. It was clear that they were the victim of an orc raid. You investigated Hilreon's personal carriage where you managed to break into his personal lock box, disguised as a type writer. Pelios also found some delightfully garish clothing. You then moved to inspect what you figured out to be Ragash the Beast Master's Trailer. All of the cages were open, seemingly unlocked and Fluff and Stuff managed to track the animals into the forest, where they were communing with Ragash. You carefully approached and asked Ragash and the animals to assist in searching the rest of the wreckage. They were very cautious, but agreed. On returning to the wreckage you moved from the forest into an open space littered with corpses, with Madame Voxhor's corpse impaled upon a spike with her eyes, and tongue ripped out, her ears chopped off, and her hands and feet chopped off. Before entering the square, the animals and Ragash bolted due to the hideous scene before them. You searched Madame Voxhor's carriage and Pelios found a book with a hideous orcish face on the cover written in some form of crude orcish. You then approached the impaled Madame Voxhor and saw a sign beneath her that read "STEAL OUR WAYZ, FEEL OUR BLADEZ, GRUUMSH HAS YOU NOW! YOUR NEXT!" and you were ambushed by a particularly brutish orc that appeared to have been left behind by the raiding party. After dispatching the Orc you returned to Domu and his men started clearing the way during the night. You all had a good sleep and the next day you awoke to a downpour of rain. You set off and walked all morning until you reached a T junction. One road led to Skalavik, the other to Rangan. You continued along the road to Skalavik and noticed you had entered swampland. You managed to spot a light hovering in the distance and followed a rough track until you reached a body of water with an island in the centre. The light was floating in the centre of the island. On trying to cross to the island, you were attacked by two Giant Crocodiles. Shenanigans ensued, with the difference between Thunder and Lightning being key to your victory. After defeating the crocodiles, you returned to the road to plan your next move.
