"That is not good, not good at all!"
Feel free to have your summoned creatures attack, they should put this thing down this round.
Grung steps forward again and swings at the incorporeal creature, determined to destroy it

"I see them as sad mistakes ...almost pity them. True abominations
...they lie in wait in the Void."
"Well, that could have gone better. Worse, for sure, but definitely could have gone better."
Karnog sits down and basks in the warm celestial glow of the archonsand
"So, who's ready to settle in? I will have the spells ready to fix us up tomorrow, but I'm fairly well spent for th additional adventuring this day."
Aye, let's get some well needed rest.
I take it you are barricading yourself in the tunnel. what are your watches?
I'll watch first
The group's nerves are a bit frayed as the settle down for the evening. Rest is needed. They realize that they have barely scratched the surface. Eyes shift to each other...death...is it near?
Grung spend his time sharping Croaker. His watch goes by uneventful.
Likewise, the last two watches go by without roaming curiosity.
After an uneventful third watch Feli starts to make breakfast for all. After yesterdays undead horrors she feels some bacon and eggs should lift the party spirits considerably. Using a little moment for herself to stretch she asks Aurora to wake the others.
Using a cup with water Aurora slowly flies over each and everyone sleeping and drips a few drops on them combined with a little rise and shine to get everyone ready for the next day.
"Ahh...now that's the sweet smell of a richly deserved breakfast. Thanks, lass!"
Karnog awakens, then spends significant time in prayer before casting restoration on himself (get rid of that Con drain and Str damage).
"Okay, I have two of the minor restoration spells prepared, as well as one which will illuminate our way clear as day. I also have a spell which will help alleviate fear, for two of us, at least."
Malcolm, having taken the morning watch, spent most of his time meditating silently with Abadar. After breaking his fast, he addresses Karnog's comments.
Abadar has seen to it that all of my abilities have been restored for use as we progress. I am ready.
Using a bit of chalk Felicitas makes some marks so that if the party has to retreat they know exactly wich way to run.
Detect Magic and walking around a bit. Then do I see it right, there are only 1 exit without water and 2 river exits? We could use a swanboat to follow the river downstream?
The two water exits are there and navigable. There is the entrance/exit tunnel that you came in. There is a cliff in the southeast. The whole room sparkles from the mineral deposits.
Yes Aurora feels brave and checks the other side of the river.
Grung is busy focusing on bacon, but will now follow aurora anywhere.
The group now refueled after a night's sleep and a hearty breakfast slips into the cavern to scout it out proper. Once crossing into the glittery area they remember the feeling of despair.
Continious Fear Effect: DC 12
Malcolm is immune and anyone within 10 feet of him gets a +4 on save
Desmond shakes his head even when Malcolm approaches him.
At the narrowest portion of the river it's 9 feet across.
Aurora - The cliff in the southwest corner of the room drops down 40 ft. at a 70-degree angle . At the bottom of the cliff are large chunks of rock that are solid gold.
Grung strips off his armor and runs and leaps, he just barely makes the other side and immediately begins putting on his armor again

It's the most gold that you've ever seen in your life.
"AURUM, look what I found here! AURUM"
Look at all the gold. I have never seen so much! Lets get it! Come on!
The little fairydragon flips around as excited as the dwarf.
"Perhaps a more orderly approach is called for? Give me a minute, please."
Karnog spends a minute casting minor creation, forming a solid black ironwood ladder 16' long, 3' wide, with 1" diameter rungs.
craft (woodworking) check
Karnog creates the ladder, while Grung picks chunks of gold from the massive deposit. the debris dust provides and wonderful pile for Aurora, who meanwhile, is rubbing his little body all over the chucks of gold rubble clearly in ecstasy.
Once complete, Karnog uses his new ladder to move across the river.
"And now we have a sturdy ladder for the next seven hours"
The group is able to use the ladder to safely cross the river. You join grung an the happy fairydragon picking out chucks of gold. for the cliff.
Dancing round in circles the little dragon hoots happily. "I will take my share and get me 4 little stars"
Interesting deposits. This should fair a fetching price.
Everyone is at the base of the 40 ft cliff.
What is the group going to do now?
"Up, then? After we obtain sufficient gold, of course."
"Surely we need not be weighed down by the gold now? "
Well we should take the gold and carry it to the town! Well, a few more wands wouldn´t hurt!
How long are you spending gathering gold? Is anyone using the later to climb up t the top of the cliff?
As Aurora is not strong enough to gather gold he will circle above to check for dangers. "Let us hope this is not just a way to lure greedy persons to some danger. Please check for traps!"
The gold dust from Aurora's frolic glitters on the tiny dragon as he circles overhead. He sees that the gold extends up the cliff.
Malcolm is on the cavern floor, looking up the ladder at the daunting climb.
Malcolm sighs at the thought of the climb such a steep angle and one heck of a potential fall. He doesn't see anything unusual - except the large gold deposit - and the daunting climb.
Felicitas will help the others to haul the gold. Not being a strong powerhouse, she will offer sacks, bind them and drag them to the ladder.
