Romon dismounts and jams the butt of his glaive into the center of the door. "Orcs are coming! Get up and come into Southwatch!"
Pip takes a quick ride around to make sure everyone has made it so far.
A loud yawn comes from inside the house after hearing the pounding. Daggin and his daugter are a little behind the horses and the lantern light looks like it is getting closer and still following.
"Franklyn! You've got to come with us now, or face the orcs here alone."
We will have half the farms here soon, but they don't move fast. Do you think they can hold up here while we wrangle the others?
"They are going to have to. But if they all get here before we're back with the last two families, maybe they should start to Southwatch without us."
Another loud yawn and soem footsteps come from inside the house.
I agree. Lets not wait for sleepy head. His friends are close, and the night won't wait for us.
Pip turns to the door and calls inside, We must get to the other farms in the area. Get armed and armored. Head to Southwatch without us, we won't be far behind.
"All right then." Maoldrurra turns from the gnome to the farmer. "Daggin, get Franklyn ready up and ready to travel. Once Xander and Eliane's family show up, get moving toward Southwatch. We'll fetch Moe and Kendal and follow as soon as we can."
And assuming Daggin agrees, the three of us are off to Moe's.
Daggin says "I will". The party sets out and finds a muddy trail to find to the house and comes near a marshy spring area behind a hill with a lot of small muddier areas. Some small bushes come across the road.
Pip glares at the covered trail suspiciously. She rides relatively close under the cover of the undergrowth, then dismounts to check if the way is clear.
Pip returns and says, I didn't see anything ahead, but this underbrush is giving me the creeps.
"Let's go ahead, then," Maoldrurra waits for Pip to ride point, then kicks his horse forward.
Pip trots to the head, staying on the path through the brush
Pip walks forward into a plant and near a plant that does not seem painful but walks then bump into the plant and it seems to burn like and acid and hit her hard and attacks pip when the party noticies it is not a plant but a blob nearby the size of a normal dog.
pip takes three damage.

ooze

Pip yelps and reflexively charges her hand with lightning. She reaches out to slap the monster before backing Nimbus up a step.
The ooze misses Pip attack mises it seems rather fast moving for an ooze. It follows the pip forward a step and attacks pip.
Anna moves up behind pip and casts CLW on Pip
"What do I do with this? Can I even hurt it?" Maol will delay until he gets an answer. He's got no idea how to hurt this.
Got any salt? Pip calls. Nikbus steps back and she dismounts. Nimbus retreats. She then steps back up in the face of the blob of goo and attempts to deliver the charge in her hand.
Pip hits the ooze with her hand and it seems to do some damage but it is still held together.
After pip hits the ooze a nasty smell starts to come out of it and pip give me a fort save.
Still waiting for Maol to act. or someone else to say sometihng.
"Sorry, but I don't have any on me."
Seeing Pip in trouble, Maoldrurra spurs forward and offers the gnome his hand. "Come with me."
Pip takes Maol's hand and is hoisted into the saddle. As they ride off, she gives a shrill whistle. Seconds later Nimbus is keeping pace beside them.
Pip gets onto Maol's horse but can't quite get away with Pip before the it takes on move up to MAols horse and treis to attack Maols horse Maols horse gets minorly hit and needs pip and moal need to get on it beofre to make sure don't fall off.
Anna ray hits the ooze dealing even more damage.map
The horse rears as the ooze strikes its legs. Maol works to settle the animal and turn its head away.
Maol and pip both managed to stay on the horse after it is hit in combat.
Back the way we came.
Maol moves back away safely retreating without any problem but Anna does not move far enough back. Anna's horse is then attacked by the ooze. Nimbus also moves back away from the ooze. Anna's horse takes 8 points of damage and Anna needs a ride check.
Maol settles his horse and draws his bow.
Pip draws her crossbow and loads.
she move 10ft back and frosts it
The ooze tries to attack anna horse again but misses anna horse and the ray hits dealing more damage to the ooze but is not quite done.
Pip fires
But the bolt goes wide. She mutters to herself and reloads.
Maoldrurra draws an arrow back and looses at the oozes.
MW (+3 Str) Composite Shortbow
Both Maols and pips shots miss the ooze but then it seems that it treis to attack anna in what seems like supring jump ot try to slam against her leg but leaving itself open. which misses anna.
