Last night we went home and cleaned up, and I made some phone calls. And then people arrived and we gamed.
Tonight we have nothing planned ... though I have some things to mail, and maybe I can get them ready to go before the post office closes at 6. Tomorrow night we have no plans ... though there's always fighter's practice in Madison. Thursday night I'll head to Magnus's shop to work on a project. And then we're clear for the weekend.
The party received gifts from The Big God Man (aka Kord), who departed in a flash of light. They exchanged some information and items and continued their exploration. Behind the next door they found a group of guards who were dispatched fairly quickly, and beyond that group discovered another who seemed bent on destruction. One protracted battle later resulted in a hard-won new toy - a javelin which casts chain lightning. As they were in a guard room ("Earth Elemental Reavers", according to the sign) with beds, and they needed to recharge and heal, the party decided that it was time to rest. They spiked both the door at the north end of the room and the door at the south end of the room, and settled in.
As the group slept, Granny Mabel kept watch. She was a little surprised by the knock on the door, but answered it in her own way. A scout announced himself, having been dispatched to check on the Reavers who were late for their shift change. With this news in hand, Granny woke Chatrilon and Questin. They unspiked and opened the door and surprised the scout. Sadly, his orders were not sufficient protection and he was slain quickly and dragged into the room. The group returned to their rest, and were awoken again when a second scout came knocking. He was not silenced as quickly, and may have spread the alarm; when the third knock came, Granny and Chatrilon decided that it was time to move out. As they were waking everyone, a person walked through the door, looked at them, and ran back out. The party fled, and behind them the door exploded into splinters. Staying just a step ahead, our heroes escaped through some doors and into a hallway where they could lay a trap...
We will continue there next Monday night.
