Look for a ride to Bogrest/Dunwich

As it happens a cog moors and a crew rolls into the Bad Apple.

Verg and folks go to the coast to talk with the boat folks and
find out the captain is probably at the bad apple.

Verg buys them a round

Vigulfr takes a shine to Verg.

Verg and Vigulfr agree to 400gp for the trip to th emouth of the river aedbh
and the part will protect Frostbiter.

In the morning after breakfast an very large fin is seen approaching the
ship.

It turns out to be a great white shark.

It attacks and bites the cog but the ship doesn't sink.

Torcan shoots the laser rifle while Verg misses with his electric pistol.
Conan shoots at hits with the laser rifle as does Kalli.
Emmett misses with the laser rifle and Arsalian casts lightning bolt and kills the shark.

  The group are dropped off at the mouth of the river.

  There are a couple of barges on the beach.

  A small group of Kelts are gathered around a man. He appears to be
  trying to sell a piece of paper.

  Vergs wanders over and gets the idea it is a treasure map that shows its secret
    under the light of the comet at night.

Verg offers up 25gp after learning the current price is about 20gp

Iodas an Ixian offers Saegrimr a Viking 30gp

Verg counters back 40gp

"Fah, take it then!" blurts Iodas.

Saegrimr wanders off and chats up some folks.

A few minutes later he comes back and asks what brought the group to the mouth of the
River Maedbh.

"Tourism. We grew tired of the places we were at"

Onchú MaccMorann seems to be the kelt running the barge

He makes some polite chit chat.

"We go from place to place selling our swords", offers Verg.

The days go by peacefully.

##  577-05-22

A person is seen in a canoe coming down river.

Verg waves his hand "Ahoy", he says.

Vig asks, "How may we help you?"

"Not at all", she says.

She looks at everyone, sizing them up. Grunts and then paddles away down river.

The barge pulls into the dock at the edge of Bogrest.

"End of the line folks" states Onchu.

He leaves the barge and heads to a large building about 10 yards away.

The sound of hammers and anvils ringing along with plenty of smoke rising from 2 large
buildings in the center of the cluster of thatched huts.

Verg follows Onchu. He is in an animated conversation with a couple of Kelts. There are stacks
of iron bars about. This has the appearance of a warehouse.

Verg catches the eye of a passing work and learns that the place they can get something to eat
and a plae to rest is across the bridge on the other side of the river.

The party heads that way, passing by the foundry and the smithy.

They arrive at the common house and order food and drinks and reserve some sleeping pallets.

As the day winds down and the hammering slows the place fills up. Verg approaches a table
and buys them a round.

The share some stories.

"There have been strange flashes of silver light on the Heath since the Comet appeared."

"I was walking along the bogs and saw a wagon crossing the Heath with no one driving it!"

"Yeah, Diarmad is right I saw that wagon, too. Not a driver in sight"

When asked about they heath everyone calls it a cursed place and they generally avoid it.

"We stick to the bogs and making iron"

They inform the party that the heath stretches north of town past the bogs. Full of heather
and furze. There are some trees and rocks but not much.

Just catching up on some of these -- great job, giz! This campaign sounds like a blast. Out of curiosity, what is a "gadgeteer"?

The party comes upon a wagon drawn by 1 black and 1 silver colored horse.

There is no driver that can be seen. The team ignores the party and continues
on it's way heading roughly east-northeast.

Verg, Torcan, and Emmett hop into the wagon. The find bundles covered in canvas.
Further rummaging around reveals barrels full of mysterious powders. Emmett
ruminates and investigates a bit and figures out they could be used for something
pyrotechnic related.

Emmett wants to hang out on the wagon to see where it is going but the rest of
the party wants to head northwest. Crestfallen, Emmett jumps off the wagon and
joins them.

About midafternoon the group happens upon a table in the heath. High
backed chairs surround it. Several people can be seen seated at it.

As they get closer they learn it is 4 nice dressed men and 1 lady in
a nice velvet dress eating away.

They beckon the party to join them. They do notice the brass bowls
filled with platinum, gems, and jewelry.

Verg first asks if they know of any mound with stones around it nearby.

"In the north of the Heath there are more hills but we don't know of
what you are looking for. Please join us", the lady replies.

"Sorry but we really need to be going."

"We insist you join us for dinner", she says as they all leap from the
table and transform into humanoid wolves.

Conan is able to act first and drop a fireball centered on the table. This
kills 3 of them outright. Verg startsa volley of magic ice darts but trips
and falls before he gets more than a couple thrown. Arsalion takes a stop around
Emmett and blasts the lady wolf with a lightning bolt, killing her.

Arsalion shoots and misses the final enemy.

The werewolf charges Kallisto but failes to claw or bite her.

It continues the attack as is able to claw Kallisto.


Kallisto replies with a killing blow.

There is nothing of value on the werewolves. Their transformation and the
fireball destroying the elegant clothes they were wearing.

The treasure on the table did not survive the blast of the Fireball.

The continue trekking north by northwest.

As they get ready to make camp they spot a canvas test that used to be
brightly colored. It is amidst a clump of stunted juniper trees.
A sardonic-looking mule is standing outside it.

Verg and Torcan approach it. They can the smoke from a fire burning inside.

"Hello there", says.

"Come in, come in and have Old Brigit tell you your fortune" and old voice
from inside the tent replies.

Verg goes in and has her read is fortune.

Old Brigit deals out her cards, looks them over, looks at Verg.

"Learn whom to fear and whom to trust, and you will have found wisdom."

"Uh, thanks."

"What about you, should I read your fortune?", she asks Torcan.

"Sure".

She gathers up her cards, deals them out. Smiles at them and then smiles
at Torcan, "Your shrewdness has made friends both fast and true. Very good, Very good"

Torcan makes room for others to come in. Conan, Verica, and Asulfr decide to have
their fortunes read.

She smiles at the cards dealt for Conan, "You too have found true and good friends"

Shuffling and dealing out the cards for Verica's fortune she looks at the cards
closely, then at Verica's face. Brigit leans over and stares into Verica's eyes.

"Yes, yes. I see. The path to true love never runs smooth for you, but your foot is upon it."

Verica isn't quite sure what to make of this. She wanted to know about Goat Boy.

She turns to Asulfr and his fortune.

She frowns and shakes her head as the cards come out, "Lucky at war, perhaps, but you will never be
lucky in love." She looks again at him and the cards. Shakes her head for a final time.

Vig asks for his fortune as well.

The cards are dealt. She looks at him and then Asulfr and back to the cards. "You too are lucky at war, but you will never be lucky in love."

"Go now, I am tired and need my rest," she says as she collects her cards and packs them away.

Found the 5 stone menhirs on the map.

As they approach the stones are wreathed in lurid
green mists.

Getting closer they see a silhouette of an antlered nymph
standing in the eldritch vapors. Is this Yoon'Deh?

"ARE YOU MORTALS MAD, TO COME THUS
UNBIDDEN TO MY MOST SACRED SHRINE?
GO YOU TO THE CAVERN THAT LIES FOUR
MILES SOUTHEAST OF THIS SPOT, AND
RECOVER THE IVORY STATUE THAT WAS
STOLEN FROM ME! LAY YOU THAT STATUE
WITHIN MY CIRCLE, AND THEN BEG FOR
PARDON! DO THIS, AND I MAY NOT LEVY
A CURSE UPON YOU. YOON’DEH HAS
SPOKEN!"

The group decides to head southeast and not get cursed.

They see a familiar object, the driverless wagon. It is
also generally going in a southeastern direction.

The wagon drives by some low hills and a cave opening in the
distance. The party jumps of the wagon and starts walking
towards it.

As they do several boulders thud down, just missing Torcan, Ars, and Verg.

The look towards the cave and see three giant dudes standing at the mouth of
it. They are reaching down to grab more boulders.

The second volley misses Emmett, Verg, and Asulfr.

Everyone but Torcan starts running towards the while Torcan shoots an arrow that
misses.

The third volley manages to hit Verg, Arsalion, and Kallisto. Verg persists even
though he was greatly injured.

The party is close enough that Conan puts a Fireball among the giants. No one else
is quite close enough to cast a spell so they keep running. While doing so
Verica is hit by 2 boulders and the third misses Asulfr.

A final volley before the party can get into melee hits Kallisto and Emmett but misses Torcan.

Vig casts Hold Person on 2 of them and they fail their saves. Verg casts Slow on one of them
but it's hard to tell if it worked yet or not. Arsalion unleashes a Lightning Bolt on one
of the them.

The last moving giant stands its ground an flings a final rock that hits Arsalion.

Verg throws his Ice Axe and Conan his Flaming Missiles to kill the last giant. The two that
are Held are dispatched.

Looting the bodies and the cave they find: 3,713 gp, a silver scroll case, and a necklace.

Torcan opens the case and reads the scroll. It's protection from undead.

Meanwhile Verica takes the necklace.

Further investigation and clearing out of the cave doesn't turn up the ivory statue, and no
secret doors or hiding places are found.

Torcan posits that maybe a giant ate it.

No one seem interested it doing a vivisection.

It is decided to set up camp here for the night and healing it spread around as needed.

Camp is set up in the cave.

cave but Verg and Vig are able to quickly kill it and turn
it into sausage for the morning's breakfast.

The next morning Torcan casts detect magic. No magic is
seen emanating from with the giant corpses. Only the necklace
that Verica claimed during the looting that happened the prior
day.

It is decided to keep travelling southest looking for the missing
ivory sculpture.

The day passes by without incident.

During Asulfr's and Emmett's watch they see a pale blue light in
the distance. It appears to be slowly floating away. Everyone
else is awakened and they follow it.

After an hour they happen upon a large tangle of web. They happen
to see a giant, purple spider. Torcan tries to speak with it but
it fades in the night, disappearing.

They notice many bones hanging in the webs. After several minutes it is
decided to head back to camp. Fortunately they don't get lost in the
night and make it back.

They keep trudging southeast.

Out of the noontime mists 3 tired looking and bloody men are
spotted.

The trio grips their weapons and intently watch the group.

Verg says hello and the men respond in kind.

They eventually share they were attacked by a mob of hyena-men. Actually
all crazed. They were able to fend them off.

It is then that the group notices that most of the blood is that of the men.

After asking them if they know Goatboy Verica offers them a wineskin which
they empty quickly.

Torcan offers another wineskin to the trio of fighters.

"By the way I'm Captain Achilles. This fellow here is Fergus, and
that more beat up dude is Liam."

The party exchanges pleasantries.

The three do not know of any ivory idol nor of anywhere they have travelled in
the Heath recently where one might be.

The groups part ways with the trio trudging off in the rough direction of Bogrest.

The party decides to head back where they came from, but go a little bit north
before bearing back to the northwest.

A few miles later they come upon a dark shape hunched over the corpse of a dead
red deer. When it notices folks it looks up and growls. Staring as they walk past.

As they warily walk past it they notice it is human looking but horribly stitched.

Emmett is keenly interested in the creation and convinces everyone to let him check
it out.

"Hey buddy", says Emmett. He is encouraged when it doesn't trip to rip him apart.

Eventually Emmett gets close enough to intently examine the creation and keep
pestering it with questions and observations.

The creature grunts and has a generally quizzical look.

Emmett suggests that it follow him. It does.

Verica calls the stitched together dude Patches.

This has the creature gruntly appreciatively and smile.

Stop for the night and pause session.

Everyone decides to hunker down and wait for the fog to pass.

Just past noon a giant python slithers in.

Verg casts Slow on it.  Vig rushes up and misses badly.
Conan throws fire missiles at it.

Emmett shoots with his rifle and it explodes in his face and
gets blinded.

The python attacks Vig but misses.

Verg throws his Ice Axe at the snake. Arsalion and Kallisto
are able to finish off the python.

The healers determine they can't do anything to help with
Emmett's blindness.

Patches is not up to the task of helping Emmett, but Verg
will help.

At dusk a middle aged man in tattered clothes wanders by the
edges of the light cast by the camp fire.

Verg hollers out hello and startles him.

"Oh, hi there", he replies.

He introduces himself as Caedmon the Wise from Gal City. He is
a sage that studies celestial events and the fauna that are
affected by them. In this case the aurorus moth emerging as a
result of the comet appearing.

After a little discuss the party decides to go with Caedmon to find
the moth. Verg stays with Emmett and Patches.

Over the next four hours they try to catch it a few times but aren't
able to capture it. Caedmon gives up the search for the night and
they head back.

Past mid day they see an elderly man in blue robes.

He is behaving oddly. Hopping around, flapping his arms, and cawing.

Verica approaches him and asks if he's heard of Zilzoon, or Goat Boy.

The man tilts his head and caws.

She then casts Dispel Magic to no noticeable effect.

Torcan casts Speak With Animals

"Are you a crow?", asks Torcan.

"Yes", the crow in a man's body caws.

"Do you know where this was done to you?"

"Yes"

"Can you take us there?"

"Yes Yes"

So the party follows the elderly man's body with a crow's mine
back in a southeasterly direction.

Dusk approaches and camp is set up.


What? Me worry?
