The group (now known as the Glowing Carrots, thanks to Miri V’s cousin Marta) was heading to Ascanor Lodge so we could use their library for research. A giant spider attacked us, which was going fine at first, but then Miri V and Arlyxannah used science to create an even bigger spider. It did kill the original spider for us, but then it turned on me. I must admit I am leery of science when it tries to kill me. Correction: when it DOES kill me. At least, I’m told I died. I don’t remember much. But apparently, after the spider attacked me, Isinwen grew scales and all her hair fell out. (Maybe the lodge will have a wig. Must look into this.)
When we finally got to the lodge, they wouldn’t let us in because we aren’t nobles. Just as they were considering letting us in anyway, this guy named Duscatan rode by and yelled at us to be in his werewolf hunting party. We complied, because we’re always looking for adventure and this seemed like a great opportunity. We investigated the death of a stag for him, but it looked like it was only caused by giant boars. Not the most fascinating of enemies, if I do say so myself. Someone had the bright idea of setting them on fire, though, which smelled delicious and was quite a beautiful sight.
When we told Duscatan we were adventurers, he was enamoured of us. This was probably a good thing, as it let us dissuade him from this crazy scheme he had to catch werewolves, which would’ve killed his whole party. We suggested a less death-filled way to go about it, and thankfully he listened. After the ensuing werewolf debacle (in which he only lost one guard, thanks to us), we headed back to the lodge.
