During his morning prep Vaneer ask Erastil for a couple of
castings of the comprehend languages and used one of those spells to read the
writing on the map which proves to cause more confusion then answer any
questions with revealing a riddle of sorts to the islands hauntings.
The group head back to tower and straight up to the tower
chamber. Once up in the chamber Vaneer casts his remaining language spell to
read the carvings on the wall.
Whilst the cleric begins reading the scribbling on the wall the
rest of the group fail to notice anything amiss as the clerics voice soon
starts to take on a foreign tongue.
Whilst Vaneers speaking begins to hasten and become less
coherent the group notices that all of a sudden a grey/purple coloured hound
appears from nowhere staring at them with deep red eyes before just as suddenly
disappearing.
Once the cleric had finished with his reading he confirms
that what was contained on the wall were actually prayers and runes. Vaneer also
announced that he has knowledge that there is actually something “living” in
the pit and so the group heads back downstairs to the pit.
Otto spends some time investigating around the top of the
pit and declares that he believes it to be an illusion and is roughly 50ft deep
with a mud covered bottom.
Kyrander then goes to tie a rope around Otto and lowers the
sorcerer and rope down in attempts to help disprove the illusion to the rest of
group as the sorcerer is lowered black tentacles begin to reach out of the
darkness.
Vaneer casts a cure serious and dispels the haunting. The
dispelling reveals the 50ft pit and a creature shifting under the mud with
multiple mouths and eyes (gibbering mouther). Kyrander seeing the creature at
the bottom and near to Otto hastily begins to pull Otto up as he casts scorching
ray which barely hurts the mouther.
Vaneer begins to cast a spell.
Gibbering mouther casts confusion (Kyrander and Vaneer
affected)
Kyrander acts normally and manages to pull Otto up and out
of the pit.
Otto casts scorching ray and hits the mouther
Miro steps further back from the pit and draws his bow.
Natalia casts a lightening spell at the mouther.
Vaneer takes his mace and decides it would be a good idea to
hit himself in the face which breaks the spell he was attempting to cast.
The Mouther attempts to confuse Vaneer and Kyrander again
but it fails to take effect.
A hound suddenly appears from nowhere and attacks Miro from
behind (lesser hound of tinder less).
Otto casts a spell and misses.
Miro faints an attack to the left at the hound and pulls it
off only to hit the hound for no damage (Insert Mutley snigger).
Natalia manages to kill the mouther whilst striking it with another
lightening spell.
Bob attacks the hound.
Vaneer fails to hit the hound with a searing light.
The hound attacks Miro and injures him seriously.
Kyrander shoots the hound and hits it.
Spot misses his attack.
Otto casts magic missile and hits the hound.
Miro attacks and hits the hound.
Natalia summons another lightening bolt whilst producing a
flaming sphere.
Vaneer takes the moment to heal Miro just as the hound suddenly
disappears.
Turning their attentions back to the pit and Otto decides to
feather fall down to the bottom of the pit and searches through the mud and
finds 2 rings. After exhausting any chance of finding more items Natalia casts
a water spell and washes the mud away at the bottom of the pit to reveal a holy
symbol of madness engraved into the floor.
With all the fun now exhausted from this boarless stag hunt
the group decide to return to Wyvernshore.
