Fernus almost works something out, but is distrcted by the perfect verse to describe the battle the just had.
I look down to the short woman who is holding my hand, and gentle hold it with both hands, "Don't worry, we'll get her back safely. Just have ta prepare first, what can ya tell us of the Glassworks defenses?"
Defenses? It is just the glasswork factory. I suppose there might be a few people standing guard at night...but surely they would let you pass.
you certainly can. I posted the other so the game could continue
We should be careful going in. This makes me nervous. In fact I would say we should be wary the father may come after us also.
"Yeah, I've heard around town that he has quite the temper."
"Father, we have terrible news to report from the crypt. It wasn't a goblin, but we found that Father Tobyn's remains are missing and someone had animated four of the bodies interred in the crypt as skeletons. Mercifully, we were able to lay them all to rest again, but I'm sure they will need a proper bural and your prayers. Aéron has a hunch that the entire goblin attack might have been a setup to steal Father Tobyn's remains."
I must commune with Desna about this. Let us keep this quiet for now, until we know what is going on. Is there anything else I can do for you?
"We have no idea, but we agree this abomination must be righted. Our only clue was that we saw the tracks of goblins and either humans or an elf. Do you know if Father Tobyn had any enemies or was buried with any special relics of the church? Perhaps Desna will be able to provide more guidance."
"Was she buried in the crypt as well?"
"How terrible. What was her name? Is there a monument to her memory somewhere?"
ok all make any prep you like when i get up tomorrow i will advance to the glassworks
Fernus is ready to go and follows Zara and the others in this chaos.
"Well at least it's always an exciting day here."
Everyone arrives outside the Glassworks the door is locked
"Locked? Well, let's knock and see if we can get their attention."
unalaq bangs on the door. Roll perceptions
there is no answer
Unalaq waits for a moment and listens. "That halfling said the note said something about knocking didn't she?"
I have the feeling we might be better off knocking the door down.
Tarinhil says, "That seems severe -- I can probably open the lock without destroying anything and with less risk of being arrested-- or we can go around back -- surely a glassworks has more than one door -- probably some large enough to bring in a wagon."
"Mmm, now that you mention it, did that note say something about which entrance?"
you think you hear some breaking glass from inside
Tarinhil's ears perk up at the sound of something within. "We have to hurry! Something's inside!", he exclaims.
He throwing back his mutagen and reaches for his tools even as his limbs begin to stretch out.
"Do you have it Tarinhill? If not, step aside and Aeron and I will bash it down!"
Click. The door opens easily, under Tarin's deft touch.
Unalaq rushes in and tries the double doors just inside.
i moved everyone forward a bit
This is obviously the glass working room. A furnace burns along the
southeast wall of this room. Marble tables sit in the
chamber, used to work raw glass into usable shapes, with
nearby wooden tables cluttered with various tools ofthe
trade. Around the room are dismembered and burned in molten glass bodies of 8 workers in the Glassworks, as well as in the center of the room, in a chair and covered in glass, is the body of Ameiko's father, his face frozen in pain and fear.
In the room are 12 Goblins, scattered and playing. Most have both dogslicers and tongs dripping with molton glass.

Because you did not break the door Heroes have the surprise but NOT initiative. Make surprise round actions please
Fernus will move to the door opening as the bigger and badder of his allies move in, else he postions himself closer to the opened door.
"What's all the ruckus, what is inside the room?"
Follows the rest in and positions himself to support Fernus.
Aeron and Tarin move up, Aeron into the room with Breaker ready to play
On Aeron
The goblins swarm towards Aeron, picking their way through the glass, giggling maniacally. Three attack him
Tongues vs Touch for Fire
Dogslicer for

On Unalaq
Flying glass a goblin tries to throw it past Aeron at Unalaq
The three goblins at the end dance and shout. Go tell Longshanks to come and play!
As the fight begins Draken slips into his backpack spot, poking his nose and eyes out.
"We've got this Aéron! I can only pray that some of these poor souls are still alive or if not that they passed quickly. Let's work side-by-side down this row." Feeling a piece of glass stab through his boot and nearly puncture his arch, Unalaq swings wildly and nearly removes Aéron's ear.
I glance at Unalaq and nod, "Gotch'a." I too swing "Crusher" and hope that it connects with one of the Goblins. I don't move until Unalaq moves, making sure we have created a meat wall between us and the squichies.
As I swing I manage to narrowly avoid being hit by Unalaq and due to that I don't put as much strength behind the attack as I usually do. I look at him and frown before turning my attention back on the Goblins.
"Sorry Aéron! This glass is all over. Watch yourself, I nearly put a piece through my foot."
Aeron crushes the ribs of the goblin who falls to the ground breathing shallowly
Fernus casts a Grease spell on the group of goblins close to Aéron and Unalaq, hoping they fall into the glass shards.
The goblin towards the back of the falls to the ground and squeals as the glass cuts him. The other goblins laugh
and yes aeron it is your turn now :) "#9%")-'(

Moves up beside Fernus and casts acid splash on the nearest goblin.
