The party spends the next 2 days at the inn. They do some shopping and get some much needed R&R. They do not...feel...like heroes, though...at the Mayors request the whole mission was done in secrecy, or as much secrecy as could be given to it. The general population still only thinks that the team is a group of strangers. Their motivations unclear which makes distrust hang in the air around the group.

After a couple of days Father Ildris finds the group at the inn and tells them that Gellion has been healed and that they can make their way to the temple whenever the want to speak with him, if they wish. He says that Gellion will be there for an indeterminate amount of time so, the group make take their time, if they wish.

Soon after Ildris leaves, Mayor Trinelli approaches the group and requests that they meet her at her office soon. There is not much urgency in her voice but you can detect a bit of concern. She confirms this by telling you that you have a few days to get your affairs in order before seeing her, if need be.

Okay. It is up to you guys. Stuff with Gellion will basically be just tying a few loose ends up in the story. Otherwise you can go talk to the mayor now...I do not know...might lead to the next chapter...or something...

Within the supply crates the in warehouse Debra and Ogar are able to find 550GP worth of Alchemical ingredients, of which you can sell to Pricknettle for full value.

I am going to Retcon that you serached Gellion...because I am a nice dude like that...and also..I did not really give you a chance to do so.

Gellion ha=d in his possession:

2 Potions of CLW
1 Vial of Acid
2 Alchemist Fire
1 Smokesitck
1 Thunderstone
1 Chainshirt
1 MWK Heavy Mace
1 Light Crossbow w/ 25 bolts
1 Anti-Toxin

The party, after thoroughly searching the warehouse, heads back to the Inn where this whole thing started. Only this time...they are hailed as heroes. Drinks for free!! The innkeeper also decides to give you your rooms free for 1 week.

Father Ildris wordlessly works on the apprentices and soon they are all awake and recovering from their harrowing experience.

The Mayor listens to Greg's story with genuine interest, something Greg does not always get form people who usually think him a simpleton. When he finishes, and nearly passes out, Trinelli nods at him and address the rest of the group.

You have all done very well. Father Ildris will take Gellion back with him and start working on getting him back to normal. I will send town guards off to tell the apprentices family and mentors about what has happened here and that their loved ones are safe and sound. On behalf of all of Saringallows I thank you for everything you have done. She reaches into her robes and pulls out 4 leather sacks.

The payment, as promised. 50 GP for completing the task and an additional 100 GP for each Apprentice you have saved. Thank you again for everything. Now, please, go get some much needed rest. I will have someone come and fetch you once Gellion is back to his normal self. with that, she says one more thank you, gestures to one of the guards to take Gellion with them, and then leaves the warehouse.

Alright! What would you all like to do next? Kill all the apprentices now that you have your payment?

Nolaria shutters and has to hold back the tears that are welling up in her eyes. She takes a bit of time to steal herself and then responds to Ogar.

"He tricked us all into coming with him...or at least...her tricked me. I assume he did the same to the others. Him and I fought in the graveyard. He bested me and then drug me here. I know not what his intentions are. He just kept babbling on about some Worms...or something...I did not understand anything he said." She finally finds the strength to stand up. You can see that her wits are slowing coming back to you and she stands with more confidence than you would have thought a few moments ago. Nolaria continues speaking I cannot tell you why he was doing this but...I think we were part of some experiment that he was doing with the purple stuff. The bit's and pieces I could get from him over the time I've been held captive..I think he believes the purple stuff... she looks around to gesture at it but then realizes that it is gone ...that...was here...needed to feed on us. I suppose we are lucky he was wrong about that. she gives a nervous laugh "All I ever saw it do was grow more and more with passing time and make big creatures out of little ones."

After about 15 or 20 minutes, Greg returns with a pretty decent entourage. The mayor, Ildris, and a couple of Guards follow him in to the warehouse.

Ildris begins working on the apprentices without even saying anything to anyone else.

The guards stand idle and survey the scene for any danger.

Mayor Trinelli looks around with a look of shock on her face What in the world happened here? she asks to noone in Particular.

Ogar looks at all the apprentices and notices that Nolaria is probably the one closest to being conscious. He and Debra work together to get waken her and heal her well enough for her to be alert.

Nolaria snaps awake and looks at everyone in utter horror, "NO! Gellion! Stop! Your hurting...us...don..t...do..." she trails off after a moment when she realizes that she is not in danger anymore.

Nelaria gathers her self for a moment and then, in a still shaken tone of voice say's, "Who...who are you? What happened" She then looks around and see's her friends unconscious on the ground "Oh. Oh no...did he...did he kill them?" and then in slightly more panicked voice "Are my friends dead!?" she tries to stand but is still a bit too weak to do so. She looks back at Ogar with a worried look, "Please! You must do something! Help them!!" she screams at Ogar.

Gellion does not even seem to notice anyone talking to him. He just continues on his ramblings.

"Demon worms will come home. Mother says so... he stares of into nothingness and continues with So hungry...hungry... this continues on with other ramblings about experiments with the demons bile but non of it really makes any sense.

Morvinarr and Pavolus are still unconscious but thanks to Ogar's actions they seem to be stabilized and will likely make a full recovery with some proper healing. The other apprentices seems to be waking up a little but are still in very bad shape.

Debra attempts to identify the potions that they found in Gellions house but is still unable to figure out what they are.

The long hallway leading up to the rubble is clear. There are doorways to the left and to the right.

Treacher begins sniffing around and almost immediately picks up a scent to both the east and west. He pauses in wait to see what Kara wants him to do next.

Combat Over (Obviously)

The party looks once more around the room to make sure there are no more threats. They use the Cold Iron Scimitar on any remaining Demons Bile, only trace amounts remain...nothing that could have spawned anything...but it would have grown exponentially if left alone.

Gellion remains tied up on the floor, he is conscious now, and is rambling on about "Demon Worms" and bringing them "home"

All of the apprentices managed to survive. They are weak, Morvinarr and Pavolus look the worst off and will require medical attention soon if they are to live.

What...do you do...

The swarm ignites in flame 6 damage from last turn rolled in Discord the fire killing off most of the nasty ass bugs. Debra throws a flash of acid at the creatures and it coats the rest of the remaining swarm. There is not left but ash and pool of sizzling acid on the ground YAY! You killed the swarm!

The Hookfly continues to keep Ogar in it's grasp and drains another 1 point of Con damage. Its belly swells more and looks as if it is about to burst open.

I HIGHLY SUGGEST you guys kill this thing this turn...

The party hurries off to the Catacombs, declining the offer to receive healing from the towns cleric.

The reach the Catacombs, wincing every so often when they see a Arwyll Steader cut down but knowing that their more important mission lies ahead of them.

The catacombs were excavated in the early years of Arwyll Stead, when the town was little more than Arwyll Estate and the land around it, and they’ve been expanded upon several times throughout the town’s history. It’s a sacred area for most of the residents of
Arwyll Stead.

Arwyll Stead’s catacombs are broad and impressive, with 15-foot-tall ceilings throughout. Empty sconces line the walls every 20 feet providing enough light to see normally with.

A pile of boulders, broken rock, and rubble blocks the main
passageway through the catacombs where the ceiling collapsed. On either side of the hallway, five-foot-wide passages lead into other areas.

The hallway here collapsed several years ago during a particularly devastating orc siege, and the damage was so great that the Steaders haven’t yet cleaned up the rubble and rebuilt the passage. Digging through the rubble would take a day or more of solid work for a few skilled laborers—since there were more pressing repairs to make following the siege, these were eventually forgotten.

As the party makes their way out of the tavern, stopping by the inn keeper to inform her that they have cleared out her cellar and thank her for the loot they received, they peek into the other rooms to make sure nothing remains and make sure that the patrons that were unlucky enough to be caught in the middle of this. All is well inside the Blissful Badger.

The same, however, cannot be said for the rest of Arwyl Stead.

As the party steps out of the tavern...the full pandemonium that has struck Arwyll Stead can now be seen.

Packs of Gaav's can be seen assailing city guards. Fires can be seen all across the city. The party puts on their battle faces and prepares to help defend the city. As they are about to go to the first closet group of attackers, Mayor Proum rushes up to greet them.

Oh! Thank the gods I found you and that you are well. As you can see, we have been lain siege! The city guard is doing a well enough job of keeping things under control for the time being. As much as we would love your help up here...we have another task to ask of you instead. He pauses for a moment to make sure that everyone is paying attention. When he satisfied he continues on The guards have seen, who we assume to be, the leader of this raid party heading towards the catacombs. We know from out experience with these raiding parties that if you kill their leader, the rest will be demoralized and run as soon as they can. We ask that you please head to the catacombs and see what you can do down there. If healing is required, you may head to the temple and receive healing from Orvir, but we do ask that you make it quick. Our guards can only hold these creatures off for so long.

Vegazi turns to the group finally speaks. She has been hyper focused on the task at hand and has not said much recently. She is not much of talker to begin with anyway. You will help? Vegazi will go...no matter what...but help would be nice. She shows no emotion outwardly but you can tell she is as close to begging as she has ever been.

The Hookfly swarm, after finally taking some damage, flys down 20 feet and attacks Peter dealing 6 damage.

The hookfly lets go of Morrinvar and turns his attention to Ogar. He lashes out with a bite that makes it pass Ogars armor dealing 1 damage. It then latches on with it's stinger and being draining blood from Ogar. He takes another 1 Con damage.

Kara is easily able to identify all of the items that were found.

The Buckler is a +1 Buckler of Complete Normalness
The scroll is a Score of Daze Monster
The oils are both Oils of Align Weapon (Good)

Aldwineas and Kara begin searching the Cellar. Almost at the same time, they both walk over a tile and they both feel and hear a difference in their footsteps...it sounded hollow.

They take a step back and then forward and then back again in unison to confirm their suspicions. They both kneel down, looking at each other with amusement that they are moving in sync, and start prying at the loose stone.

With very little effort, they are able to lift up the stone. Underneath is a bag and inside the bag...is..STUFF!!!

BAG STUFF!

- 2 Sponges of Water Purification
- 1 Masterwork Heavy Crossbow and 20 bolts
- 1 buckler
- 2 Oils
- 1 Scroll

Larry the Lemure had not chance to make any kind of attack on his surprise foes. Treacher and Aldwineas saw to that.

Steve, despite hitting hard across the body with a glaive from Arkhan, has a chance to at least get a couple of swings in. He takes a 5 foot step forward to be in melee range. He takes a swing and actually find purchase...but only deals 1 point of damage. The other claw misses completely.

ROUND 1 Summary

-Tymor makes everyone chuckle when he attacks with a sling
-Kara cant hit shit...but Treacher makes up for it by taking a pound of disgusting (and probably sweaty) flesh of the creature...like...literally...a pound...at LEAST.
-Vergazi's arrow finds purchase but it only serves to tickle the Lemure a little
-Aldwineas does what Aldwineas does and kills another creature
-Arkhan rushes up and hits the Lemure with a good blow...but it does not do quite as much as he was expecting.

The Alchemist Fire from Killiss seems to kill some of the swarm...but it's numbers are still writhing. It moves 20 feet to land on Killiss's square. It deals 4 points of damage. Killss begins to bleed from the several bites the swarm inflicts. Killiss will take 1 point of bleed damage until healed

The remaining hook fly, after being hit hard by Ogar, is knocked back against the crates behind it, thus releasing its grasp on Morrinvar. It, however, was enjoying its meal and knows that Morrinvar is the easier target. It latches itself back onto him and begins feeding again.

ROUND 7 Summary

-Greg makes everyone laugh (even the swarm laughs a little) with his inability to accurately throw a flask.
-Debra prepars to miss throwing another flask.
-Ogar bashes the f+&! out of the hookfly, but it is a hungry son of a b&*@& (demonic summoning will do that to you) and latches back onto its prey and begins sucking some blood again. (did it just say, "MMmmmm, tastes like chicken?")
-Killis is finally able to hit the Swarm with an Alchemist Fire...
-The swarm did not like the firey explosion and flies over to Killiss to get its Revenge.
-The hookfly is enjoying a tasty treat...and also bleeding profusely

Vergazi Attack: 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 5 + 1 = 14
Vergazi Damage: 1d8 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 + 1 = 3

Vergazi moves down of the stairs and takes up position behind one of the barrels. She takes a shot at Larry the Lemure. It hits the thing, the arrows sink in a few inches...but seems to do no real damage to the creature.

The party, seeing that the lemures are too distracted to see them come down the stairs, gets into position to make their attack.

The Lemures slowly turn to look at the party...

The party makes their way down the stairs. Upon reaching the bottom they see a Cellar the goes on for about 55 feet. It is only about 15 feet wide.[/ooc]
2 of those disgusting looking Lemure things that you fought upstairs are currently occupied with eating the foodstuff that is down here. The gross slobbery sounds of their chomping are sickening to the stomach. Their globular forms are just as disgusting as the ones upstairs. However, seeing them eat vomit-inducing.

They do not see the party.

ROUND 1

SURPRISE ROUND

Tymor
Kara
Treacher
Vergazi
Aldwineas
Arkhan

Kara and Aldwineas quickly get to work by throwing as much salt as they can find onto the fire. The fire flickers in anger but eventually, and stubbornly, winks out. Aldwineas begins to think that his cooking classes in college were not such waste after all.

Arkhan returns, somewhat out of breath, with an arm full of blankets only to see that the fire has been taken care of already.

The innkeeper claps her hands together in joy, "Thank you, m'lord and lady! That could have gotten out of hand quickly! Here, take these as a token of my appreciation." She hands Aldwineas 3 potions of cure light wounds.

The innkeeper then takes a shy step back and lowers her head, "I...ummmmm...I know ye just helped me with the fire in here...but...but...but I was hoping you could do one more favor for old Isald...I saw some strang...monstrosities...almost like big globs of fat...head down the cellar over there" she points to a staircase in the corner of the room "I am worried that they are going to destroy everything down there! My food stores would be depleted...what good is an Inn without any food? I have some relics hidden down there under a loose stone tile and you are welcome to whatever you want from that stash for your troubles."

Greg watches as Killiss's arrow narrowly misses it's target and then begins wildly swing at the damn thing.

Greg Attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21
Greg Damage: 2d6 + 7 ⇒ (3, 6) + 7 = 16

Greg's massive sword slices through the flying creature cutting it in half and making a big mess while doing so. He gives out a celebratory cry and then moves 30 feet south to meet up with Debra, knowing that there is nothing he can do against the swarm.

Just as Greg begins moving south the Demons Bile begins to...move...and make bubbling sounds. A form underneath the bile begins to take shape. It grows larger and larger as the bile stretches around it until it is just a thin layer of film cover the form. The bile the rips open a spews forth a flying creature that is almost an exact copy of the one that Greg just killed.

The creature looks around and then immediately attaches itself to the closest person (one of the apprentices that are stuck in the bile). Its stinger digs deep into the apprentice's skin and begins to feed on his blood.

The swarm, seeing its pray run away from it, attacks Greg and deals 1 damage. Greg is now bleeding for 1 damage per round

ROUND 5 SUMMARY

-Killiss takes another shot at the creature believing that he has his target dialed in now, but the thing moved just a fraction of a inch out of the way and the arrow barley misses it's target.
-Peter decides he does not like the gross insects biting him and gets the hell out of there.
-Greg does what greg does best...kills bugs...and splits the Hookfly in half making a big mess everywhere. Now he has to wash his clothes and we all know how hard it is to get blood out of a white wedding dress.
-Debra gets all bossy toward Killiss.
-Ogar ties up Gellion and then moves to check on the first apprentie that was an unwilling participant in the birth of a gross swarm of Hookflys. She is okay...but she is in VERY rough shape.
-ANOTHER Hookfly emerges from the Demons Bile. UH-OH!
-The Swarm does not give Peter chase but instead moves onto it's next closest target. They bit Greg and now he is bleeding.

The swarm of grossness moves over to Peters square and starts biting at him. Peter takes 4 points of damage and is now bleeding for 1 point until healed.

Mommy Grossface tries to bite Greg but she is dumb and misses.

ROUND 4 SUMMARY

-Ogar moves over and helps Gellion heal his wounds
-Greg double moves and stops next to the gross thing that just gave birth to tiny gross things.
-Debra gets the f*!& out of dodge and takes 1 point of bleed damage.
-Killiss and Peter tell the GM to f$~# off and finally decide to not suck. Killis hits the thing with a good shot and Peter absolutely mauls the thing. It is still alive but it is in very bad shape.

The group starts running around trying to find something to use to put the fire out. Arkhan grabs a blanket from the nearest room, next to where the Lemures were, Kara and Aldwineas start searching the kitchen for something to use, and Tymor waits to watch the fire and make sure it does get out of control.

Aldwineas and Kara find an abundance of salt in the kitchen. With his prior cooking knowledge, he is able to discern that they should be able to use a large amount of salt to put the fire out. While all of this happens, the fire begins to spread.

Updated Roll20.

Astrid, bleeding and still not feeling all herslef, gathers as much energy and willpower as she can throws another flurry of attacks at the remaining creature.

Unarmed Strike: 1d20 + 7 - 2 ⇒ (10) + 7 - 2 = 15
Unarmed Strike: 1d20 + 7 - 2 ⇒ (15) + 7 - 2 = 20
Unarmed Strike: 1d20 + 7 - 2 ⇒ (1) + 7 - 2 = 6
Unarmed Strike DMG: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6
Unarmed Strike DMG: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10
Unarmed Strike DMG: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

Ki Points 5/8

Fumble Confirmation: 1d20 + 7 - 2 ⇒ (19) + 7 - 2 = 24

Kara helps tend to the wounded. Luckily, no one was grievously injured, but there were enough worrisome injuries that Kara feels that her help was definitely needed.

When she has finished the party heads for the last area of the tavern that they have not checked.

Countertops and a fireplace with a large cauldron in it are the only furnishings in this kitchen. Exits include a swinging door to the east, a door to the south, and a stone spiral staircase to the northwest.

Aldwineas, I assume he would be going first steps through the door and is immediately attacked by a dwarf wielding a rolling pin. A scream of anger rips through the air as the makeshift club swings at and totally miss, Aldwineas's head.

She fumbles forward past Aldwineas a bit, recollects herself, and then goes in for another attack...but then stops suddenly. She gives a start as she slowly realizes that she attacked patrons of her establishment.

"Oh my! Ooooh My!! I do so apologize to you, sir. I thought you were more orcs come to try and kill me! She wipes some sweat off her brow You came just in time! I could use ye' help with a bit of a mess that those ugly green bastards left behind. She motions to a grease spill in the corner of the kitchen. You are surprised at how calm she about it considering it is a massive spill and is currently starting to spread...oh...and it is on fire.

Any help you could provide would be most appreciated.

Okay. [u]Now[/u] there is a fire

The blow from Greg knocks Gellion out cold. Gellions body goes limp as he falls to the floor. His arms flail ALMOST releasing the bottle of Alchemist Fire he holds in his hand, but the force of hitting the ground is cushioned enough by Gellions body that the glass does not break.

The flying creature deftly dodges the shot that Debra took at it and then, in much horror, Debra sees the things stomach star quivering. Slowly at first but it quickens with each passing moment. Debra notices just then that it is not quivering from the outside...but something is...moving...from the inside. Before she has a chance to react the creatures abdomen bursts open and a swarm of creatures of the same type as the large on spew out. Blood and go flies everywhere.

Debra looks on in terror as the swarm of creatures comes flying at her. They sting and bite her as they swarm around her.

Debra take 1 point of damage and is now bleeding for 1 point of damage until healed.[/dice]

Whats worse...the parent creature...is still alive. It flies right next to Debra.

Vegazi ON FIRE!

ROUND 1 Summary

As the things fly in Arkhan is able to a good swipe at one of the creatures. He knows it hit the thing...but is not nearly as hurt as he expected it to be.

No worries though, Aldwineas is here to help! He swoops in and electrocutes the F#$! out of the thing...but even this seemed to be less effective than Aldwineas thought it would be.

Tymor being creepy-chanting

Kara and Treacher do Kara and Treacher like things and beat up on the other creature a bit as Arkhan takes a swing at it. Everything hits...and it looks hurt...badly...but you think it should be dead by now...It is not.

ROUND 2

Red Creature As I am now labeling him to correspond with Roll20 Stabs at Kara with his spear. Kara moves out of the way but just a tad bit too slow as the spear slices across an open part of her armor on her side. Blue Creature see above labeling system for creatures going forward jams his speak directly into the shoulder of Arkhan and finds just enough space int he gaps of armor to do a considerable amount of damage to him.

Kara takes 1 damage. Arkhan takes 4

Gellion Enough being secretive. You all know who he is! Moves 20 feet east and 5 feet north to stand next to a stack of boxes. He retrieves something from his belt loop. You can still hear him mumbling about those worms.

The flying creature, after being hit by Debra's crossbow, releases its grasp on the body it was grappling. The body falls limply into the demons bile. The hook fly then flys north and stops next to Debra.

ROUND 3 Smmary

Greg takes a swing at Gellion and attempts to knock him out but he puts a bit to much force behind the swing making it veer off course enough that Gellion only had to move a little for it to miss his face.

Debra takes a shot at the flying creature and it hits, which apparently seems to piss it off a bit, as it lets go of its prey and flies directly towards her.

Gellion decides that he has gotten himself into quite the pickle and moves away from Greg and Ogar. He retrieves something from his belt.

Ogar and Greg you may roll AoO attacks in your next post. Just make sure you label it as such

As Greg moves past the stack of boxes in the middle of the room, he sees a creature that he did not spot when they first entered the room. A gross flying thing has attached itself to one of the human-shaped bodies in the corner of the room. Its belly looks like it is swelling...

The party makes their way down to the end of the bar and turn the corner to see that Vegazi was indeed correct in assuming that the tavern was not yet empty.

This large, open barroom sports several tables and a large corner stage for performers to ply their trade. The ceiling of the room is twenty feet high. Patrons of the tavern are cowering in fear under the tables in the room and huddled together in other spots as 2 flying creatures, much like the ones the party fought outside the town, poke at them with and chuckle demonically.

As the party turns the corner the chuckling stops as the demons see the new arrivals.

Arkhan Fort Save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11

Arkhan instantly begins wretching and dry heaving as the fumes cover his face. Arkahn is sickened for 2 rounds. Aldwineas...you are alright.

The sounds of a crossbow being reloaded can be heard from behind the pillar. A few seconds later a bolt flies past Greg's head and slams into the wall a few feet away from Debra. The mumbles of frustration and something about "bringing the great worm demons home" can be heard from behind the pillar.

Vegazi looks at Arkhan and with a bit of anger in her voice, This big tavern. There could be more. Help look more...please. The slight bit of anger dissipates as she attempts compassion in her orcish voice.

Kara casts detect magic and the figurine begins to glow

Kara sees the object light up after casting detect magic on it.

Vegazi shrugs to Arkhan's question. "It is very...pretty?" she says...seemingly unsure if pretty is the correct word to use for expressing that she likes something.

The party quickly leave the rooms behind and heads for the bar to investigate.

A long bar counter covered in platters of half-eaten food stands opposite two broad wooden doors that lead out of the tavern. Numerous bottles of alcohol rest on shelves behind the bar.

Vegazi eyes up the creature, aim her bow carefully, and takes another shot at it.

Composite Longbow: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15
CMPST LNGBW DMG: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8

The arrow flies true and hits the creature in the eye with enough force that it falls back into the wall. The arrow, sticking out of the back of the things head, embeds itself into the wall.

Vegazi gives a satisfied nod at the dead creature and then turns to the group. She quickly goes down the hallway to the left and opens all the doors. They are all empty and no enemies are present.

She returns to the group. "Bar." she says and then starts walking towards the bar.

Combat Summary

They came. They saw. They conquered.

Aldwineas, Kara, and Treacher deal a lot of damage to the creature but they have a feeling that not everything went through. However, Arkhan was able to finish it off with a stab directly through it's back. The point of the weapon pokes out the things "chest" It...falls...dead...but really it is more of a melting motion than it is falling...

The remaining creature takes attacks Treacher with 2 claws.

As Greg charges into the room, he starts frantically looking around for whatever it was that nearly hit him. Almost immediately he notices a foot sticking out from behind a pillar 35 feet southwest of him.

Debra surveys the room but does not find anything but decrepit old boxes of warehouse supplies.

She checks the door and does not believe it is trapped and gives Greg the signal to open the door. He throws it open.

Torches in each corner of this large room shed dim flickering light between high columns of barrels and crates. Four large pillars support the ceiling. Purplish-black slime covers the eastern wall and much of the room’s southeast corner, stretching between the walls, pillars, and crates with long filaments. Countless shapes, varying greatly in size, crowd the sludge. Several of these shapes, pinned to the walls and
crates or lying on the floor, appear human-sized.

As soon as Greg opens the doors he is spotted by a strange flying creature. It begins moving back towards the corner where all the demons bile is.

Not a moment after that a crossbow bolt flies right paste Greg's face and sticks into the doorframe next to him. Greg knows that it came from somewhere in the middle of the room behind one of the pillars.

Vergazi thanks you all for helping.

The party gears up and quickly make their way downstairs...a couple of them using alternative methods to do so...

Kara rushes around the building with Aldwineas in tow. They rush past the front of the inn, around the western corner, up the side of the inn past empty windows, and then turn again to be on the northern side, they make their way past sets of windows making sure that they peer through them for anything suspicious. The first 2 windows are clear...but as they pass the 3rd window, something catches Aldwineas's attention...he stops an looks through the window as 2 medium sized, grotesque, and almost liquid-like masses of human flesh are tearing the room apart.

The sparks from Aldwineas give away any chance for him to be stealthy as one of the creatures looks directly at.

Ogar does as he is asked. He barely has to even touch the egg for it to shatter. Partially formed Centipede guts start flowing out if it.

Ogar then clears away the demons bile with his cold iron morningstar.

Debra carefully surveys the egg embedded in the demons bile. It only takes a moment before she is positive that the thing is about to hatch. She also knows that it will not take much force at all to destroy it.

Vergazi nods to Aldwineas, "Imps do no attack by self. Always with more. She then sets off to her room and grabs all of her gear.

She returns and waits for the party to ready themselves. Visibly impatient while doing so.

Combat Summary

The GM looks through the thread once more and realizes that he is a f!@!ing dumbass and missed Treacher's extra attacks after Kara hit. The second one falls dead...it just...like...took a while to realize it...or something. Everyone is now in the room with Kara and Arkhan looking at the dead corpses of 2 tiny creatures with red skin, wings, and nasty looking horns coming out from the top of their heads. You may proceed as you wish. The combat is over.

Vergazi looks at the party and then at the creatures and then back at the party. "I feel this was not all of them. We must go...fast...and help. You come with Vergazi and help human town?"
