In a lost chapter of our tale, the party did some more mapping of the mazes and passage near the wererat Damien. They parleyed with the goblin military leader Herzord and conspired to overthrow the Orcus clerics of Greznek. They also gound a giant vertical cavern with a waterfall and tentacled flumphs floating about, and a secret chamber protected by an anti-magic zone atop it which was home to the flumphs. Jackie Chan continues their tale. (-GM)
1st day of Sarenith, 4720 AR
While Valestar communicated with the flumph elder about killing the blood orchids and the gibbering mouther, the rest of the party had a casual game of chess on Valestar’s bird. Valestar spoke with the ghost of the hero Auris Veng. It was revealed that Auris Veng had been lured to the flumph cave and been trapped, eventually dying of boredom and other lethal causes. When we killed the blood orchids using the spellcasters’ flame abilities, we returned to the flumphs and received scrolls and a staff of healing.
After we received our items, Auris Veng and the flumph elder told us about a hero Bofred who went missing, and if we returned Bofred to the surface a curse would be lifted allowing us to inspect Auris Veng’s treasure. The lens shining daylight into the chamber was the Auren Beacon, which had 2 claws remaining which meant we had to consecrate 2 more temples of Orcus.
Satisfied with our talk, DFSIFA, Valestar and Madrik the Spell Thief explored the bottom of the waterfall when a roper, a tree with tentacles, attacked them. After heroically killing it in one round, we went down four levels in a tunnel to a huge cave with a giant lake at the bottom. The whole party moved on to a secret door. When it was opened, poisonous gas filled our lungs. Luckily the party was fine! After we found there was nothing of importance or value in the room, we moved on to map the poison-spike maze and the “stupid face” maze. (Maze names provided by Madrik the Spell Thief.)
