He came upon a young boar which very nearly gored him, before he was able to enchant it with his druidic magic. Party rehired Milo, who bought himself a shield and an axe between the sessions, intent on following Grudge's martial example. They agreed to try again for the bounty on the River Rats bandits and so ventured into the Mouth of Doom. After some initial confusion about which door to take, they arrived at the entrance to the bandits' hideout. Making a good use of surprise, the party killed two bandits and knocked one unconscious. The remaining bandit thrown his weapon down and surrendered. After some quick interrogation the bandit reveal...

  <- Previous session. Scheduling difficulties have finally caught up to me. Due to several people having to cancel at the last minute, this was a rather short session with just two players. The Story So Far September 19th 2021 Grudge, Fighter 1 Oleg, Fighter 1 Eli Wax, Half-elf 1, retainer Milo Crest, retainer After arriving at the Bristleback's Inn, party noticed a hastily built notice board hanging on the wall next to the counter. Pinned on it was a parchment proclaiming monetary reward for the bandits they met inside the dungeon yesterday. Enticed by the possible reward but not liking their chances, Grudge and Oleg hired on Eli as an additional muscle and Milo as a torchbearer.

In front of them three unfamiliar men were tied to wooden poles. "Tell me your name!", spoke the priest. Though they were facing away from Tiberius with hood over their head their voice was feminine. "Tiberius Stone.", spoke first of the tied men. "You speak lies!", replied the priest and the falcon swooped in to take man's tongue. This repeated for other two prisoners. Both calling themselves Tiberius Stone. Both being accused of lying. With that nightmare over, party ...
