In which the party...
- Heads back out to Goalshire in the mountains to deal with the black dragon harming the sheep economy for old man slathery.
- Travels for 5 days through the mountains, given the rough terrain and need to ration food.
- On day 1, encounters an obelisk overlooking a cliff, with jagged runes scrawled over it. Another obelisk rests at the base of the floor, in similar runes.
- Avoid the obelisks given they are unsure of the exact function of these structures.
- Hide from a lumbering fire giant during the first night.
- Get lost on day 2, and climb up a mountain adding a day to their trip, allowing a better view for navigation.
- Continue to travel before getting attacked by a hell hound on day 3, which corners the party in a dead end canyon.
- Fights off the hellhound, which eventually loses morale and flees not used to such stern competition.
- Manages to find their way by day 4 - only to be attacked by a starving Wyvern in the mountains.
- Kill the starving wyvern and manage to harvest its flesh, which has a fishy taste to it.
- Discover four magma mephits, which they circumvent and leave alone as the burble and melt back into the floor.
- Finally arrive at Goalshire at 5 days, and learn from Old Man Slatherly that the dragon has in fact been kept at bay, or at least distracted, by a wyvern...which the party realizes was the one they killed.
- Learns that 1000g will be paid - a sum gathered from the whole town - to any that can stay the black dragon.
- Learn the Lap, Thorfinn, and Murder has improved their opinion of Thumb following his direct and smart decisions.
- Sees the hatching of the drake egg, revealing a small red dragon which is named Flametongue and beings a companion to Thumb on the continuing journey.
- Will plan to head to the black dragons lair, despite some of the party's misgivings, to fulfil Old Man Slatherly's request.
Current levels: Thumb 4, Thorfinn 3, Murder 1/1, Lap 1
