I don't think you are adding +1/+1 to attack and dmg from my moral bonus. I may be wrong.

Thank you Griff. You healing is greatly appreciated!

Easy Luccinus. I was only teasing Fung. I would not want to be hit with that sword after seeing the way it destroyed the frog thingy.

Fung visualizes where Harper's head should be and smacks him in the back of it, missing wildly. Little punk! he laughs out loud...

Vermin makes a final search of the room and prepares to move on.


You can now search area 9 and 10. Area 9 I already gave you the treasure, but when you go to area 10:

Three rounded alcoves in this chamber contain the rotting remains of scroll shelves, honeycombing from floor to ceiling. Scattered amid the compromised shelving are damaged scrolls, and a number of still-sealed scroll tubes. A glimmering trickle of water seeps down the northwest corner of the room.

Amid all these scrolls, about a dozen are Kelish trade agreements that look like what you are looking for.

Kelish:
They detail pacts that Satrap Taliq Asad made with pirates, mercenary groups, petty lords, and even a few nations scattered about the Inner Sea region. One arrangement contains a personal note addressed to the Satrap, congratulating him on gaining the Li family's katana.

Fung feels around for the nearest person, and puts his hand on that person's shoulder. (Probably Harper) If you'll help a poor old blind man... ^_^

EDIT: When on the move, Fung will find someone and just follow with hand on shoulder. When exploring a room, he will lean against one wall and listen to the goings on...

Since I do not think the past few rooms have taken 10 minutes of time, I read the agreements to the group. (See the above spoilers) I also take notes in common so I know which scrolls are which.

Can someone use their skills in healing to see how long the blindness lasts? I would be fine waiting it out so our friends can see.

I grab Fung's hand and place it on my shoulder.

I am assuming that since I am blind, I cannot use my Heal skill, correct? I figure it requires looking for eye damage, and what not...


We will say Griff takes 10 on a heal check and lets you know that it should wear off in an hour. You all can just sit in this room for a bit until it wears off.

Harper suggests that the group should rest until the blindness wears off. Unless anyone disagrees, we do this and then prepare to move on.

Brave Luccinus...Are you prepared to lead us on?

I guess we have the hallway to the east left (towards the second well).

Whew, I think, rest it is then...

While resting, Fung uses the time to find out more about his new friends. Where are you guys from? What made you all become pathfinders?

Everyone is free to read Fung's backstory on my profile. ^_^ Fung freely shares the story listed there, without a second thought...

Griff will listen rather intently to Fung's stories, not commenting but surely paying attention. When everyone can see again, he is ready to move along.

So, where to next?


Looks like we are moving on towards the back well... New map up!

This long, narrow room is choked with webbing. Within the webs are a number of what appear to be small, dead humanoids with dark, scaled skin, each wrapped in a cocoon of sticky webbing.

The shaded squares in the room are full of webbing and will requite a STR check to walk through

Yuck! I hate spiders! Vermin...I hope you can work your magic if we encounter one.

Harper puts his flag in his bag and pulls out an alchemist fire flask.


You can actually walk without too much trouble through the center of the room.

However, slowly crawling from the web at the far side of the room, is a big, giant nasty spider.

Vermin is in the back. I do not think he can get to the creature. So he will move 30' into the room and ready to attack if the spider comes within range.


You are exactly 30' from it if you want to do something else, actually. New map up (forgot to earlier)

I think the mechanics require a roll of a natural 20 or better, but I will try, offering food. Maybe the creature is currently indifferent and not hostile.

Vermin moves up, offering the spider something tasty.
