"Cuth, just how resistance are we talking? I'd prefer my bastard sword if at all possible."
Very resistant, Cuthberwyn says helpfully. They don't really fear physical damage that isn't from a blunt source.
To the smack-talking slaver, he is less circumspect. For someone whose very lives hang in the balance, you've a lot of sass in you, he says matter-of-factly. You're still breathing through our good graces at this point. I'd recommend that you remember that, and that your companions here remind you in the event it, uh, slips your mind.
Cabaguil ties the men up, or helps others more skilled than he to do so (not sure the mechanic). ”Now you wait here, and wait quietly, and we’ll see about taking you to town, alive and whole, when all this is over.”
As he prepares to leave and press on he glances over his shoulder, ”Who knows? Perhaps we will be beaten, and you’ll be freed by your so-called allies here.” He chuckles, not really believing it. I mean sure, he might go down, but not Raspar. Not the dwarves. No way. They were much too tough for such things to happen.
Still smiling, he readies to head down the hall to see what he can find.
Raspar feels the urge to go west.
"We should go west. I bet there are more slavers to kill that way," he says triumphantly, and also resisting the urge to make the bunk beds. It's hard for him to not start tidying up the place.
"We should get moving."
"West is a good plan." Cabaguil agrees and lines up to proceed.
"West is where I go." Dak quotes, but leaves the source unsaid.

Six nooks have been carved out of the walls of this natural rock chamber. Each is heaped with furs and animal pelts to make a large bed. A tunnel leads out to the east, overlooking the quarry pit. A large fire burns in a pit near this opening.
In this rom dwell four stone giants, stooped over their bunks. The stone giants who live here keep their faces painted with ash and soot to resemble skulls. One of the giant's looks up as you enter. "You here to bring us more food?"

The stone giants stand up one by one grabbing their clubs, "Looks like them slavers are getting brave. Kill them and Jaggaki will let us serve as his dead."

"Wait! Slavers are our enemy! Hold, there's no need for a trip to the Boneyard!"
Cuthberwyn can see that Dak's comment is precisely the wrong thing to say here, and immediately moves forward, launching into an extended storytelling of the fall of the Cypress Dream and its former slaver crew.
He gives a flourish to try and let the tale linger...
...and then tries to think of what he may have read about stone giants before.
Whatever he remembers he will share.

Cuthberwyn knows a fair bit about stone giants. They are able to hurl rocks at great distances and their greatclub strikes can have the potential of hurling its victims far away, damaging them further.
A typical stone giant stands 12 feet in height and weighs about 1,500 pounds.
Raspar runs up to protect Cuthberwyn with his shield. "Well, it is good for you then that we seek death. Jaggaki will allow us to rise once more and be of service."
The stone giants grab their greatclubs, backing further down the room. They reach their fingers into the stone all nearby and rip a chunk out the size of a dwarf and prepare to toss them .

Cabaguil inspires the others to move forward as he splits himself apart in case any of those rocks get close. Dakapos suddenly charges in towards the giant, not a care if the club gets close. The stone giant immediately gets defensive as the elven blade cuts deep into his rocky side.
Dori protectives raises his shield to help protect Dakapos while Raspar's starknife gets caught on one of the beds.

Cuthberwyn moves up behind Dori, reasoning a good place to be is behind the dwarven-halfling wall of champions.

Reaction: Opportune Backstab
Kelvin rushes to catch up with Dak, launching a quick stab at the giant while the elf has it distracted.

Kelvin runs in beside Dakapos and stabs the stone giant through the thigh.
Cuthberwyn tries to give a bit of misfortune to the stone giants but it seems that this sect being so close to death have little left to fear. Two of the giants drop the rocks and grip their greatclubs like a bat. Their thick hands creak across the wood making it gran beneath the pressure.
The second giant comes around and swats Dakapos. The club catches him right in the side of the ribs as it launches the elf 10 feet across the room where he slams into the side of the wall.
Dori blocs a small bit of the blow but the giant's strike was oerall too high for the dwarf to stop it fully. The rear most stone giants begin to heave rocks across the room at the group.
Rapspar blocks some of the rock headed Kelvin's way but manages to catch one of his own in the process as it knocks his shoulder out of its joint.

Cabaguil moves into the room (•>) and sees a few injuries in his allies, and a few in the enemy. A slow start. He’ll continue to Inspire Courage . Not having any other good options, he’ll try and identify the giants further (•>) - just for his own edification (I presume he learns nothing new).

Cabagui recalls nothing new of the Stone Giants as Dakapos fights to free himself from being backed into a corner. His blade slicing across the giants arm. This opens an opportunity for Kelvin to get in a backstab. His spear strikes hard and fast, splitting the stone as one of the giants collapses cringes in pain. One more spear strike drops the giant as Kelvin turns to the second one on the forefront.
Raspar heaves his starknife high into the air as it arcs off of the giant's face and into its shoulder.

Dori brings down the ae as he chops small crevices into the stone. A bright light forms in Cuthberwyn's hands as nine missiles break apart and streak across the room into the stone giants chest.
The wounded stone giant pulls back for a big swing as he hurtles the club at Kelvin.
+ thrown 10 feet
The small dwarf is catapulted into the air as Dori and Raspar cushion most of the blow with their shields.
Dori tries to slam his shield into the giants foot but misses as the club backswings down to break his arm.
The two northern giants grip their clubs as well as they move in for the batting practice. While Kelvin lays dazed in Dakapos arms the northern giant moves down and puts him further to the south.
+ thrown 10 feet
This time he doesn't have Dori or Raspar's protection as he is tossed about the room.
The third moves in and punts Dori into the corner of a bed.
Dori rolls to the side avoiding the blow.

Cabaguil tosses a ball of fire into the stone giants face. It sticks like glue into the crevices where it continues to burn like the bowels of hell.
Dakapos seizes the opportunity and shatters the giant's wounded leg as it digs the fire out of it's eyes. Raspar's starknife sinks in deep into the softened stone as he kills the westernmost giant.

With the effect of his tale ready to fade, Cuthberwyn picks it up again, highlighting the fall of three quarters of a foolish band of stone giants who didn't realize they were already defeated.
The gnome then weaves a bit of misfortune magic and flings it at the remaining giant.

Cuthberwyn's magic has little effect as it bounces off of the stone. The giant steps in an punts Dori across the room.
Raspar catches Dori as the dwarf sails past him.

Cabaguil does more of the same, seeing as it seems to be working so well! He continues Inspire Courage . Then he’ll follow it up with an attack of his own, casting Produce Flame .

Cabaguil's flames barely miss the giant as it ignites ne of the nearby bed straw mattresses. Dakapos fairs much better as his sword arc's across the stone body carving deep gouges within it. Meanwhile Raspar's starknife bounces harmlessly off of the thick stone body.

Cuthberwyn continues his tale -- three down, one to go, he mentions, to be sure the giant knows their doom is next -- as he moves to the other side of the melee, hoping to see anyone else come to check on the ruckus.

Dori's axe chips away at the giant's shin while Cuthberwyn avoids the giant's immense reach. kelvin hops onto the giants back and immediately begins to drive his spear down into the wedge until it falls face first into the bed.
The giants each carry a large +1 Striking Greatclub

Cabaguil will get to work on their injuries, but it shouldn't take him any longer than 20 minutes. "Well done. We seem to be getting better at not taking so much damage." he grins.
When he's done, he suggests, "To the left? Right feels like it leads back into the main chamber."
