THorn looks at the healing being done as he reloads his rifle.
With Buzz scouting and Grimmylow's load getting lighter as he nibbles off the juiciest bits of cartilage from the boar carcass, the rest of the journey is uneventful.
After about an hour of travel, the thick forest begins to thin before the trail opens onto a long stretch of a coarse gravel beach, the shining blue waves of the Inner Sea rolling beyond to the south.
See Slide 2 for an overview. I will put a tactical map on Slide 1 when we enter Initiative Mode.
A cliff rises along the beach’s northern edge. The largest building is a wooden house built on weathered stilts with a porch wrapping around the south and east and doors along the west, east, and south walls. A raised outbuilding to the east shares the main building’s porch, while three smaller outbuildings stand to the west. A drying rack and drying table stand near these western structures. Near the porch sits an old rowboat and weathered oar, pulled high to avoid the tide, and a pile of dirty fishing nets.
I've labeled these things on the map according to the descriptions for clarity. Rather than move individual icons on this map, you can move the concentric red circles to indicate where the party as a whole is moving.
It's mid-afternoon when you arrive at the camp. What would you like to do? Where would you like to explore first? What are your exploration activities?

Grimmylow frowns and cocks his head to the side when he sees the ocean. "OH! THAT kind of fishing! Fancy!" he says when he realizes the scope of this fishing lodge.
"I thought we were just going to be next to a lake or river."
He may be an adventurer and favored by Sarenrae, but Grimmylow is still a goblin and space is less important to him than survivability.
"Why don't we start with the big, freestanding outbuilding? If we need to rest or hide we can barricade ourselves in while exploring the rest of the buildings."

Thron looks around, taking few steps to each side to look from the sides "Sounds good, I expect to find plenty of dust and rotten wood."

Beggar So reaches into a pocket of his clothing and withdraws something small. Still holding his staff in one hand, he positions himself by the opposite shoulder of Grimmylow.
Basically to position himself so that throwing a ranged weapon won't interfere with Grimmy.
"You lead, my little friend. I'm right behind you. Just duck when I tell you to."
"Let me do a loop around in the sky and see if there are any threats lurking about outside." Buzz climbs atop his vulture and does a few laps overhead, looking out for anything out of the ordinary.
After a few moments he lands and is ready to enter the small shack with the others, relaying what he found.
This large shed was built for smoking large batches of the fish camp’s daily hauls. It has no windows, and if the door is closed, it’s completely dark inside.
The door creaks open on battered hinges, releasing a putrid stench. Racks for smoking fish fill most of the dark space within, some still holding scraps of scale and bone. A faint sloshing sound comes from a vile-smelling puddle in the center of the floor.
Whoever was assigned to empty out this shed either forgot or shirked that particular responsibility, and the last batch of fish set in here to smoke has long since rotted into a sludge so foul that it has come alive. As soon as the door is opened, the two puddles of slude surge up and toward the light, fresh air, and sustenance.
Kzem is unable to find anything in his esoterica pouch that would matter to the oozes. Instead, he chooses a small stick of incense, Red seems to dislike. Failure on EL. He walks up and smashes it with his shield, which actually does some damage. AC <= 10
So throws a shuriken, which hits, but not in any vital organ, because it has none. Mechanically, your Strike hit AC+10, but it's immune to crits. AC <= 8 (!)
Grimmylow, recognizing that this smokehouse has no smoke, tries to burn the oozes.

Buzz - are you still riding your vulture? Your choice.
OMG ... my bad ... they're not immune to poison. Sorry.
Buzz puts three stingers into the ooze, and it writhes with pain.
Long tendrils extend from Red's body, lashing out at 1d3 ⇒ 3 So. But first, its body swells, and with a large belch, releases a large wave of filth that covers everyone except for the flying Buzz. DC 17 Reflex save for everyone vs Acid:1d4 ⇒ 3 plus -10' Speed

Buzz and Loudmouth are on the ground since we are entering a small building.
Buzz Reflex DC 17:1d20 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10 Loudmouth Reflex DC 17:1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16 +1 vs Disease
Both Buzz and Loudmouth are covered in filth from the belch. While Loudmouth may be more used to that disgusting aspect, uzz certainly was not and it made him start gagging as well. "That's gross." He slings off a small handfull and chucks it to the ground, flinging more tiny poisonous darts at the ooze.
Avoiding the worst of the blows, Kzem is unable to avoid the acidic vapor from the creatures. Taking stock of the situation, he drives his shield into the ooze.
Kzem smashes the ooze with his shield, squishing it past the point of no return. Heh, that second Strike would have been the first miss ... the thing had an AC of 8.

Let me know how you want to heal up, and depending on how long that takes, whether you want to rest or not.
Beggar So grimaces in pain at the acid on his skin. He heads to the nearest patch of dirt and rolls around in it in an attempt to neutralize it, much to the shock of his companions.
Grimmylow's only down 2 so he won't treat himself and I missed the mark on Buzz but I can do Battlemedicine on him, if needed.
After everyone is healed up, Grimmylow steps out into the sunlight, holds his holy symbol up so that the sun forms a halo around it and prays to Sarenrae.
Refocusing to get Burning hands, back. It all takes 50 minutes. So I think we should keep moving. Especially since, if we just adventure for 10 minutes I can start Treating Wounds on everyone again.

"Thanks Grimmy" says Thorn looking through the items in the shack

"The Doc strikes again. I don't remember there being so much mud the last time... but what do I know about healing anyways. I appreciate the patch up!"
As long as I don't get tetanus... the thoughts he leaves unsaid.

"Yes, let us try the two small buildings. Stay alert!"
The heroes throw open the doors, expecting more surprises, but these simple sheds merely hold fishing rods, boxes of tackle, and various tools for cleaning and preserving fish.
All together, the gear in these two sheds make up 10 sets of fishing tackle. Each set can be sold for 4 sp.
I'll assume you pause after that for another round of Treat Wounds. After that, it's pushing dinnertime, so you can explore some more or find a place to rest for the night. I'll need a destination for either.

If we have capacity, we could push our explorations one or two doors further. Afterall, we only spend about 10 minutes of today actually exploring- the rest has been the Blessing of Sarenrae tending to our wounds. "
I am ok with resting too. I don't love the idea of sleeping here if we have other options though

"We could take a peek inside, there could be beds, couches in there. Maybe even a keg of beer!"
"I usually sleep in a bush or tree, but any place with a bed sounds better. Usually a hawk or swallow tries to gobble me up." Buzz shivers at the though of being swallowed whole or fed to some birds babies.

It seems that I have pushed us into exploring further, sorry about that. If casters want to rest, let's rest
Loudmouth flies to the top of a nearby shed, while So leans against the main building with Buzz in his hair. Adjusting Slide 1 to reflect these changes. The remainder of the crew spread out on the ground, and everyone takes turns taking a watch at night, in alphabetical order, as watches are always arranged.
1d5 ⇒ 3
Grimmylow is pacing around, counting the number of goblin shapes he sees in the stars when a quiet ripple draws his attention to the water. Through the darkness, he sees two crocodiles trying to sneak up on the his sleeping companions. Buzz also happens to hear, and wake up independently. Rolling Perception for Initiative.
Grimmylow sounds the alarm, and everyone wakes up with a jolt.
The group has a bonus round to prepare (lol carryover from PF1). Grimmylow is awake and wearing "armor" (I don't believe he wears armor, but if he did, he would be wearing it). Buzz is awake, and will have 3 actions. Everyone else will begin prone [1 action to stand], and will not be wearing any armor.
The moon lights everything with dim light. Those with darkvision and low-light vision are fine. Those with normal vision will need to make a DC 5 low light flat check.
