Yeah, I'm having the same issue right now... especially my own game I'm supposed to be GM-ing which I'm still excited about but am just too tired by the end of the day full of work, school, homework, helping take care of the boy especially now that he's potty training, and looking for a new job, to muster the energy to do anything. That said, after four years of looking I finally got a job offer!!! So maybe it's time to head on over and help my PCs out at long last....
I suspect Tybek would be satisfied with gold with which to purchase Dwarven liquor! :D Maegge wouldn't know what to do with that much gold: he is a bit of a hay-hair, after all... and a druid to boot.
Maegge and Gimpy will go to see the elders with Braden and possibly Tybek.
Braden has put the unholy mace in his pouch. He is quickly aware that it is valuable and will help rectify the inequities in treasure. I LOL'ed.
"So, uh... now what?" Maegge asked as they entered Hommlet. "Should we try and sell most of the items right away so Tybek can finally afford to get properly dward-drunk tonight?"
I should have some time tomorrow during the day to scan through the posts and compile a list. That said, I don't recall there being very much until that last room, "the master's chambers". Uh, yeah. Nine days later... Anyway. Searching was difficult, and the loot list I compiled is from the big bugbears fight, and the final fight against the drow. The tallied list is:
Blue-ish potion (CL3) 750 Falcons
1 Morningstar +1 8+300+2000=2308 Falcons
15 Falcons
Total determined value of loot retreived: 17,098 Falcons, 91 Sails, 32 Caps

"C'mon, Ty - surely you can manage another couple of dressers if it will fund the Party Drinking Fund!" pipes up the scampy young halfling.
"Yes, to Dworkin - as brave and loyal a companion as one could ever hope for!" toasts the slaughtered dog, and drinks of his beer.
"So... they fell down a well into a land of magic mushrooms and fought a half-man, half-bear, half-pig creature? That's ridiculous, Ranim!" said Maegge, momentarily distracted from his sorrow at Dworkin's murder to giggle at the absurdity of Ranim's tall-tale.
"Ooooh..." Maegge says in awe of the sumptuous appointments in the "master's" chamber.
"Sure, Braden," says Maegge quietly, sad for his elder friend and Dworkin's cold-blooded murder. He then tosses the blood-stained travel packs across Gimpy's back. Not knowing what else to do while Arindale interrogates their sole captive, he approaches Braden once more. "Braden... I'm sorry about Dworkin; he was the best dog anyone could've ever wished for... umm, do you think, uhh, you want a hug?"
"That would be the smart thing to do, Arin...," Maegge opines from the midst of battle. "Try to knock him out before he can run away!"
"Braden, we're coming through!" the youngster warns his elder as, running out of options, Maegge moves to cover Braden and simultaneously attack the nearest enemy with his own weapon - and Gimpy's formidable antlers.

Round 12
"Raaagh!" Both Maegge and Gimpy cry out as the evil energy burn their souls. When the same 'wave' brings Dworkin low - and the enemy butcher his remains, Maegge shouts out in wordless anger and flings his final magic stone at the villain.

"Hooo-ey! Didja see that, Braden?! Right between the eyes, hahaha!" Grinning, he whipped off another magical stone.
"D'oh!"
Maegge fires off one of his magically enhanced pebbles at the nearest enemy.
Round 9 With a burst of pebbles and stones, Maegge's earth elemental's summoning energy dissipates.
Feeling the enemy's magic spell wash over him, Maegge resists its foul influence. He then casts Magic Stone on a handful of his sling bullets.
Round 8 "C'mon Gimpy, we need to help!" Maegge exclaimed when he saw one of their enemies was a magician. Moving foward from his current position but still nowhere near the swordfighting, he drew his sling and fired a bullet at the magician in the hope that it could disrupt his spell.
Meanwhile, in the pitfight, the earth elemental mindlessly attempted to pulverize a cultist.
Huh. We had pancakes for dinner tonight, and I haven't been able to check my games since last week!
Maegge's Earth-friend attacks the nearest enemy possible,
Meanwhile, Maegge himself casts Guidance on Tybek, figuring the Dwarf needs all the help he can get! Small Earth Elemental hp 17, AC 17, 1 round remaining
Round 6 Maegge's call brought forth a small, living collection of rock, pebble, and dust right in the midst of combat. With a pummeling fist, it strikes at the bandit/cultist between itself and Arindale.
Maegge backs up his stonefriend by casting Flare on the same enemy.
As a victim of the same, we all understand and will be here when you're ready!
Round 5 "Oh my, Gimpy: this is even worse than I thought! We need some help," said the diminutive halfling. Calling upon the natural elements for aid, the pebbles on the ground near him begin quivering in place....
Round 4 Maegge smacks Gimpy's shoulder and says, "C'mon, Gimpy, Berashel will need our help!" He then guides the elk forward to take position behind Berashel, weapon ready in case an enemy jumped out of the darkness!
Maegge casts Flare again, on the cultist shooting from behind the barrels .
Maegge moves up only as far as necessary to cast Flare on the next conscious cultist. Clearly, having Gimpy with him increased his risk aversion substantially!
"Gimpy, be careful!" orders Maegge, even as the pair move forward far enough to see down the corridor. "Close your eyes, now," he warns his stalwart companion. Move to (56,AX) and cast Flare on the nearest visible cultist.
"Hey, look! I found another door!" Maegge preens.
"Gimpy!" cries out Maegge in happy surprise to find his friend unharmed - and with a way for them to be together in the deep, dark dungeon. Hopping up on Gimpy's back with a grin, he guides the stag back down into the depths, making for the southeast passage. Looking for more secret doors in the passage like it was some kind of game, Maegge waits patiently for Tybek to report on any traps.
"Well, such a massive gate wouldn't be there for no reason; there's got to be another secret door like what Tybek just found!"
"Ty, did you see anything up the passageway?" asks Maegge. Taking a look for himself,
Maegge sleeps like a log, curled up against the laying-down elk.
"Of course I'll make sure he goes outside," Maegge scoffs before continuing in a more teasing tone. "Why? Afraid it might be better than sweaty Dwarf?" Maegge grinned to show he wasn't being serious.
"Speaking for myself, of course you can use it Arindale. I mean, what would I do with that massive club - it's almost as big as I am!" "Braden's right, though, that we should find someplace safe to rest down here. We've been in a running battle since we first got here, and this deep underground I just don't feel at home," Maegge says, trying to explain how he just couldn't seem to find his center to be in harmony with the natural world.
Round 6 Maegge moves to get a more-clear lane of fire at the shaman and lets fly his second magically-enhanced bullet.
"Watch out, Arin!"
Round 5 With the bugbear was out of his way, Maegge moved into the room - dropping his sickle to draw his sling and magical bullets. Now with a clear lane of fire, he whirled his sling and let loose at the shaman.
Round 4 Maegge draws his sickle and attacks the bugbear in front of him. "Take that!"
Round 4 Finding himself boxed into melee, Maegge puts aside his newly-magically-enhanced bullets and attempts to distract the nearest bugbear. Cast Flare. Status hp 25, AC 16, Inspire Courage
Round 3 Having done his best to help Tybek, Maegge steps away from the thick of the combat and grabs some of his sling bullets to cast a spell that makes them more damaging.
Status hp 25, AC 16, Inspire Courage
Maegge 'tags' Tybek as the Dwarf falls back to re-group.
...
Round 2 "Hey, where're you going? I was going to cast a spell on you!" Maegge asked in consternation when Berashel scurried off to fight the monsters. Grumbling, he took off after him and released the contained magical energy into the elfesque warrior. Satisfied in his help of Berashel, he turned to dealing with the gouts of blood from an eviscerated Dwarf. "Tybek, you're hurt! Get back here and I can help!" shouted Maegge over the din of battle, casting a spell to have ready for when he could touch Tybek with the magical, healing energy.
Round 1 "We're under attack!" cried out Maegge, likely completely unnecessary. Gathering his wits, he scurried over to Berashel and began casting a spell. Move 20' to (50,H) and cast Barkskin on Berashel. "Go get the big one!" he advises - also a statement likely to be completely unnecessary. Status hp 25, AC 16
Maegge grinned sheepishly at such public praise from his most-respected elder. "Maybe, but I don't think I'll be able to find another frog like that down here," he said glumly. "Wherever 'here' is, specifically." Taking a look around for anything 'interesting' or 'out of the ordinary',
