Having barricaded yourselves into the circular study of the former owner, nualia, who still lies in her own pool of blood at the door, you all settled down to patch wounds and plan the next step. The room is comfortable, with luxurious chairs to sit in, it is very easy to nod off and fall asleep, especially with the quiet gurgle from the fountain.
Everyone has settled in to take care of things, hursk to dool out some healing potions to everyone, turlsk to drink the healing potions, bayot to test out the new bow, lamanic is reading the spells from the scrolls and figuring out what they are, and antrix is off in a corner writing a sheet.
a few hours pass, and antrix has completed his job. he stands up, stretches, and casually hands the scroll to lamanic, informing him that it is a key to ease with translation.
Lamanic, with great enthusiasm, grasps the scroll and moves over to the book, and starts to line up letters and words. Soon enough, he can be heard muttering to himself in a strange language, one that no one has ever heard of before.
Suddenly, Lamanic cries out I HAVE DONE IT!! I HAVE TRANSLATED THIS BOOK. Eat your heart out master
The commotion awakens most of the room, but lamanic is quickly back into the zone of total study and concentration. only hursk is the one who continues to snore.
The rest of the "night" continues on unremarkable. a couple hours before "dawn", Lamanic slams the book down in exasperation.
this book makes no sense. this strange sense of time keeping? these weird names of important people? Who is this raistlin? and where are these locations? and what sort of magical properties do these "vallenwood trees" posess?
Tired of waiting for everyone, Dabard decieds to try his hand at fishing. He packs his gear and heads to the docks. Asking around for a boat that is it for a general (free)he then boards and awaits the days adventure.
After a well deserved rest, Tulkus asks the group to help him make alist of the places yet to be explored and the hidden passageways that they have yet to figure out. "We have the stone door in the room where the mage and the bugbear were, the golden spiral thing out of this room, the caverns where we believe the demon was living, and the chapel were the devil dogs are located. I think we should take some time to search everything again, so that we can make sure we didn't miss anything. Anyone think of another area we may have missed?"
Now that the book is translated, Antrix will see if he is able to talk about it.
Takes Hursk into the woods for his badger and for my wolf. Will then patrol just to make sure the goblin threat is gone.
and we are back!!!
