With Zavier holding it down, Kohl tries to finish it.
sword PA: 1d20 + 12 - 2 ⇒ (20) + 12 - 2 = 30 dam: 2d6 + 13 ⇒ (3, 3) + 13 = 19
crit?: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (6) + 12 = 18 dam: 2d6 + 13 ⇒ (3, 6) + 13 = 22
damn. well, maybe with it being pinned, it'll confirm...
With Zavier and Kohl's blow the flytrap is no more.
One of the branches on the floor is a sapling rod
15 AC:14 T:13 F:11 | HP 172/172 | CMD:18 | F:+10 R:+8 W:+13 | Init:+6 | Perc: +19, Dark
"This rod is amazing! It will be very helpful in the future. There is a lot to cover in this valley."
Perception to search the area for anything else useful : 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (12) + 14 = 26
Once the area is fully searched:
Sid will cast rope trick and keep watch so everyone can rest in another dimension while remaining awake, placing the rope against a tree as he did before.
The only thing of interest is the building that the flytrap was lurking in.
You rest overnight and nothing disturbs you.
15 AC:14 T:13 F:11 | HP 172/172 | CMD:18 | F:+10 R:+8 W:+13 | Init:+6 | Perc: +19, Dark
I think n, o, p next. The the forks with Z. Then we will have to see if there is a was to cut over to F,H,J,I

Shouldn't we go into the building and see what's in there first?
Per: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (14) + 11 = 25
If there's nothing in the building then the rest sounds good
Zavier you spot a secret door in one wall.
15 AC:14 T:13 F:11 | HP 172/172 | CMD:18 | F:+10 R:+8 W:+13 | Init:+6 | Perc: +19, Dark
Sid will check for traps and locks.
Perception: 10 + 14 = 24
If it is clear and unlocked Sid will check it out.
M Half-Elf Warsighted(Oracle)-8 | HP 40/64 | AC20 T11 FF19 CMD22 | F+4 R+4 W+7 (+2 vs enchant)| Init+2 Percept+4 low-light vision | Current effects:-2CON
whoa, that rod IS cool
Kohl follows behind Sid, ready to disarm any traps he might see.
You do not find any traps and you are able to open the secret door. This narrow corridor curves around to the north end of the chapel, and is covered with dust that has apparently lain here undisturbed for centuries.
Loot: Bag of holding type 5
3 fire geodes.
Goliath Druid 17 | AC 29 w/Barkskin (32 v. Giants w/Barkskin)/14/24 | HP 212/212 | CMD 28 (32 v. Bull rush or trip) | F+18, R+10, W+19, (+2 v. Spells, SLAs, and poison) (+4 to saves v. SLA and SU abilities of giant)| Perc25, Init+4 | Darkvision 60’
Dolgrym reaches into the bag to see if there is other loot contained therein.
Inside the bag is the following:
a +1 short sword

Hah, nothing is hidden from eyes of Zavier!
Good to go with Sid's plan
Can I assume we use up any daily healing spells when resting overnight?
Heading on to N
A small river runs through the centre of this valley. The precipitous slopes of the rocky canyon walls are dotted with a few dozen dark cave entrances. In the distance you can see the glow of a campfire.
15 AC:14 T:13 F:11 | HP 172/172 | CMD:18 | F:+10 R:+8 W:+13 | Init:+6 | Perc: +19, Dark
"Let approach with caution. We can use invisibility when we get close enough."

yeah Zavier, I gotcha covered for healing
Kohl nods to Sid. Not being particularly sneaky, he'll hang back.
You head forward slowly, you can make out near the campfire which you realise is in the entrance to one of the caves. You see three cave giants around it.
Brawler (Beast Wrestler)/17 | HP 193/193| AC 22 T 16 FF 19 | F 17 R 16 W 13 | Per +21 | Init +8 | MaFe 11/11| KO 3/3 DC 26 | Combat Stamina 20/20

Zavier has many questions, puny Giant! Zavier says stretching as he sits on a very large shoulder. What is in Cave. Also what is in rest of Valley?
"The caves are put of the old mine workings, they've been abandoned for years, ever since the ore run out. Me and my mates (indicating the dead giants) used to live there.
In terms of other areas:
Area O: We call this area the Forbidden Rift- we don't go there because of the undead.
Area P: Jogrothir's Rest, the tomb of one of our heroes, there is a spire drake that lives there.
Area Q: The Rocky Gorge Pass: There's usually a couple of stone giants on patrol there.
Area R: An old burial bog that we dump dead bodies in.
Area S: The Shrine of Fandarra, it is guarded by benaiohs.
Area T: Patrol area, there's usually some ogres and a slag giant there.
Area U: The hunting ground, usually there's a couple of us that hunt manticores down there.
Area V: The Valley Gates: There's usually 4 giants on guard.
Area W: The main marshalling ground- lots of ginats there.
Area X: The Fighting Pits
Area Y: New recruit area.
Area Z: Cathedral of Minderhal - Look for Eltena, she is friendly towards your kind, watch out for the dragon though.
15 AC:14 T:13 F:11 | HP 172/172 | CMD:18 | F:+10 R:+8 W:+13 | Init:+6 | Perc: +19, Dark
"It seems like this valley is a source of recruiting. I think it is clearer than ever that we should dismantle the groups in the valley cutting of recruits to the Cathedral of Minderhal before we attack that. I think we should clear up to the hunting ground then head over the ridge to the paths we missed."
