Incredibly the distraught troll misses all its attacks. All it manages to do is put a few dents in Ka'kara's armor.
Mahaffy tries to hamstring the troll but .... Att 14 Damage 8
Sandros lunges and sinks his blade deep as the troll turns toward Ka'kara.
Incredibly the distraught troll misses all its attacks. All it manages to do is put a few dents in Ka'kara's armor.
Foregoing her usual brutal brute force attack Ka'kara hesitates a moment to allow the trolls momentum from it's lunge to take it by her. Bringing her sword around she attempts to thrust the entirety of the great blade through the back of its skull.
Under your combined assault the troll goes down, and Chris is quick to cauterize their wounds, making them permanent.
Sadly Sandros finds that he has pressing business to attend to and bids you goodbye.
What now?
Wiping the green troll ichor from her blade with a cloth, "Now those were worthy enemies! I'll have to see if I can make some green ink for a tattoo representing this battle." Looking off toward where Sandros distant form was disappearing on the horizon, "It saddens me to see such a skilled blade brother go. Hopefully, we'll meet again....well, on to the caves then!"
Hum , can't we stop at the inn to recover ?

"We have an ally at the caves that will likely give us a welcome reception."

Roylenna stands, jaw hanging, as Sandros suddenly departs. "But, but..."
She walks over to the giantess and leans against her . After a while, she goes to the troll's tollpot, dividing it into equal piles. "I believe you asked if we shared the results. There's no reason not to." She looks down the road for a moment before passing 53 gp worth of coin to each of the others.
"Yes, our friend is probably missing us. I'll have to bring up a tale of truly trollish terror," with that she winks at Ka'kara.

Is there anyone other hurt than Ka'kara and my wolf?
I got some scrolls.
No need to use scroll , let's just go to the inn . It'll cost less

Sounds good. Hope they let Robin stay at the inn.

You go back to the caves to recuperate. The ogre frowns a bit at the sight of Mahaffy but nothing a little halfling girl sweet talking can't fix.
Ka'kara is feeling quite energetic this morning and does some exercises to loosen up for their days exploration. She especially enjoyed demonstrating the battle with the trolls to the ogre as Lenna described it last night. "Lets continue around the lake from the ledge where the skeletal bear was. What do you think?"
"How are we all feeling?" Proteus asks the group. "Are my services needed?"

Well Robin is hurt quite bad.
Sandros reappears at the cave the following morning, his "business" concluded (though he seems oddly cagey about what it might have been). He agrees with Ka'kara that they should continue their search of the lake area before moving on any further.
"How are we all feeling?" Proteus asks the group. "Are my services needed?"Well Robin is hurt quite bad.
"I can aid Robin, Chris, should he need it. But you'll have to let me know -- I tend to watch these two," and she gestures toward Sandros, whom she favors with a smile, and Ka'kara, with whom she's discussing the finer points of designing her new green tattoo.
Seeing concern in Roylenna over whether Sandros' should have received a share of the troll gold or not, Ka'kara hands over her share to him , "I am sure you will put it to better use than I will." She leaves the gold in his hands and moves on before he can protest taking a few practice swings with her new blade.
There is no more exit on the far side of the lake, except the stream, which looks possible to wade (if someone will carry Roylenna). There are also a couple of openings in the cave wall on the other side. If you're afraid to wade, you could always go around.
Ka'kara feeling confident with her ability to swim picks up the halfling if she doesn't protest and wades across the stream, "Let's see where these tunnels go." She looks back curious to see the dwarves reaction to water.
Roylenna has no concerns with being carried by the warrior-woman. Can she see anything up the stream with her Dancing Lights?
Yes, actually the cave widens and there are some sort of shelves on both sides of the stream. You can even make out some kind of door to the left, although there is a slight mist hovering over the water.

"Ooh, Ka'kara, there's something in there! Are we going to look?"
Mahaffy sighs
" And to think being away from my mother should mean I don't have to take so many baths "
He thens enter the stream
"When do we ever not go to look?" Sandros asks rhetorically, squinting up the stream to see what Roylenna is pointing at.
Something about the mist momentarily tugs at the edges of Ka'kara's memory but is quickly lost, "Yes, lets take a look." She changes her course and heads down the steam toward the door with Lenna directing.
Chris wade and Robin swims.
As you wade down the stream, suddenly a sickly green ray shoots out of the mist, and only Ka'kara's barbarian reflexes allows her to avoid it.
Searching for the point of origin, you see a small vague clawed shape emerge from the mist floating on the water. Time to roll for initiative.
"What the...?" shouts Sandros in surprise.
"MIST DEMON!", Having lost her stable footing Ka'kara takes a few moments struggling against the streams current but that's all it takes for the mist demon to strike again...

"Mist demon? Who was it that talked about a mist demon? Hey, don't do that Ka'kara!"
