Audyn hits with his rapier, but again, the weapon doesn't seem to do as much damage as he would expect. Parker also hits with his acid, but the creatures body seems exceptionally resistant to it.

The small creature tries to keep its balance, and using its tail to good effect, manages to do exactly that.
Velinov fires off another ray, but again the creature avoids it.
Mylitta draws her bow, and while it doesn't look like she can hurt it, she figures she may be able to distract it.
Iron feathers charges up, and strikes past Audyn with his long horsechopper.
He can't quite seem to land the blow though.
The little red demon-thing advances again on Audyn, trying to stab him with its tail.
But misses.
<- to avoid slipping in the grease.
--skipping to next round.
Mylitta again tries to distract the imp
And Iron Feathers steps back and delivers another big chop with his horsecopper.
Knocking it to the ground where is starts to slowly dissipate.
Combat over!

Parker - 1 damage;
Audyn - also gets an extra AOO as the creature moves into his space.

Exploring further within you come upon another shrine (C5)
A large statue of a monkey-faced man sits on a pedestal at the north end of this small shrine. The statue’s arms and legs are missing, and deep scratches have been gouged into its face. Pieces of broken stone, rotting plant matter, and other assorted rubbish lie in heaps on the floor of this room. The smell of rot is particularly strong here.
|
"Well, ain't that just a rosie smell!", mutters Parker, walking slowly towards the shrine. "Any o' ya know who that guy or god is? I ain't really all 'bout that religion.", he says, stopping after a while. "Maybe got somethin' to do with them monkeys that helped us earlier? In which case, I am damn thankful. Think we should fix the shrine?" The stream of questions keeps flowing.

Parker checks the room for what is making the smell.. He guesses it was something excreted by those horrible demon creatures (Asura actually). Idly checking the room for magic, he notes the statue is wearing a magical belt.
Audyn looks closely at the statue and notes a small cabinet in the base, within that is a richly illuminated copy of the Vigrahin Patiraka (a holy text), and a journal belonging to a priest who accompanied Khiben-Sald on his travels around the Inner Sea.
(and I'm guessing you take them)
You join back up with the baron and make your way back through the swamp without picking up any nasty diseases. The rest of the hunting expedition passes without major event.
The baron is grateful for your assistance, as his his son-in-law.
Even Ragdya, the monkey god is pleased with you. Who knows how that will work out in days to come.
You eventually get back to Absalom without difficulty. Ambrus is excited to inspect the book, and almost ecstatic when you pull out the journal.
