Use LOH to remove sickened.
Does Ang know why he is exhausted?
Ang thinks that it was a result of his continued sickened state; clearly some negative effect of interacting with the stone. After resolving the sickened state his exhaustion slowly fades into fatigue (about and hour) and after another few hours he returns to normal.

Your previous 3 perception rolls were for your travel in a SE direction; you weren't searching. You are a day out from Umok, roughly on the border of the Chitterwood and the short plain that is at its edge before the foothills of the Aspodell mountains take over. The only way to get ongoing bearings of where a stone may be is to commune with the one you possess. Otherwise you are just walking around trying to avoid Citadel patrols.
Anglachel Gurthang |
Commune with the stone!
Eye of the Heavens |
You are due to post in the other campaign.
Once again you open your mind to the power of the stone and as its oily malevolence slides over your mind you feel its unholy powers push against your spirit. You sense you are closer to the nearest stone, and the resonant energy seems to continue to emanate from somewhere SE. From your current vantage point it would appear to be either in the Aspodells or on the far side of the current series of peaks that jut out a little towards the Chitterwood.
You can continue along the border of the forest, skirting the mountains, or try and pass through the peaks directly. You know the Citadel lies in that general direction as well.

Ang can't think of anything he would have done to provoke the wasps who clearly have a nest somewhere nearby in the Chitterwood and strenuously crushes on of his insectoid antagonists.
The wasps swarm and sting as they flit about on buzzing wings:

No penalties to hit an invisible opponent for wasps?
Can wizard target an invisible opponent? Wouldn't he need to somehow perceive the target of the magic missile spell? Pathfinder magic missile rules don't specifically specify this but if you look at D&D 5e the spell does say you have to see the target. I would argue a perception check would be necessary and someone could be targeted by sight/sound. But maybe the wizard can see invisible?

DC 25 FORT save or gain the sickened condition.
Ang ignores the angry buzzing of the nearby wasps as well as the threatening sound of the main hive in the distance and once again opens his mind to the power of the stone. As before, you feel the subtle consciousness of the stone slide over your thoughts. Faint echoes still ring to the NE of your location and you also sense another stone closer to the SE. Reaching out to where you believe the mage to be you sense no returning energy but you feel a sudden surge of hunger and lust as whatever foul essence inhabiting the stone feels the mage's evil power.
Make a DC 27 Will save or....

You resist the physical weakness that seems to come from communing with the stone and for several moments you feel your mind being ripped from your body and an image of a green crystal prison fills your thoughts. However, your will is strong and you are able to defy whatever evil force wrestles with you and your focus returns.
Clearly the mage possesses no stone, but the stone desires to possess him! The wasps continue to buzz angrily nearby and although you have a better sense of the direction the mage lies you still do not see him.

A group of over a dozen walking corpses, clothed in soiled rags, and flesh rotting off their bones quickly stumble towards you; stopping about 15 feet short of you camp. Behind them stalks another skeletal form, a thick tangle of discolored entrails clinging to its lurching torso and winds upward to loll from its jaw like a clawed tongue. It drags beside it a trio of humans bound in heavy rope: a man; a woman; and a child.
From the darkness the mage's voice calls out-You make my life quite challenging paladin, costing me much, although my eventual reward should make it all worth it. Direct force seems to be ineffective, so I now I will offer you a bargain of conscience: Give your stones to one of the filthy creatures in front of you and I will bother you no more. In addition, I will have my hungry friend here spare the lives of these three innocents and release them to your stewardship.
What say you warrior? Three stones for three lives that only you can save? The mage's voice sounds tired and much less vibrant than your previous encounters.
The large undead creature pulling the bound humans along appears quite ravenous and leers threateningly at the bound captives.

The undead are all quite evil, you don't sense any evil at all from the three bound humans; they seem quite subdued. The front ranks of undead appear to be zombies, although they appear much more nimble than any zombies you have previously faced. The creature in the back you identify as a Mohrg; their tongues can cause paralysis.
Mage-Be that as it may, you don't deny that you have SOME stones. My offer still stands-the lives of these innocents for whatever stones you have.

Ang bullies his way through the first group of zombies, smashing one down in the process, but the crush of foes is too much for him to get through. They swarm and claw at him as the Mohrg rips the skull from the neck of the man gulping it down with relish.
