# Tuckleberry's Tales of Redemption and Heroism, 2023-02-25

#### Events

- After fighting a giant bird, we decide to ferry the party over the mountain to our next destination! 
    - Harvey and Carmen take the first trip, stopping at the column seen on the mountain side. 
        - It's covered in giant writing and (possibly) arcane runes, made of a very nice marble. They didn't investigate it further
    - With minimal difficulty, we get everyone across!
- We descend slightly into the woods, to give us more cover and help us forage more. We eat some delicious boiled and seared potatoes. 
    - Some of the goblins get scared, and leave the camp. Hangmor tails them, at the suggestion of Ernest. The goblins head back towards the mountain. Shortly after they leave, we hear a hunting horn, and Hangmor hears a giant hunting party romping through the woods. After a bit, Hangmor returns, and the night continues, without further interruption.
    - In the morning, Swordpit tries to help Sir Laughlin MacLaughlin put his armor on, but MacLaughlin find the idea revolting. Tuckleberry agrees to teach Swordpit how to be a page!
- We move upon the Surveyor's Camp 
    - Hangmor and Greysword scout, finding a few orcish sentries in the trees. At the entrance to the camp, there is a giant set of bronze-studded wooden doors, with a shelf above it and more sentries.
    - On our return trip, we discover that the sentries were all taken out with arrows. On the shelf above the door, we find an unconscious hobgoblin and a secret door. I revived the hobgoblin, and he opened the secret door for us! Then Greysword threw him off the shelf. Which was quite rude. Hangmor climbs down, finds some more dead hobgoblins, and a bunch of arrows. As they explore more, they meet up with Will Yamson. He informs them that Kaldur is scouting, and that there is a giant and 4 guards in another room. 
        - Meanwhile, while the dwarves wait for Kaldur to return, Tuckleberry releases Greysword, who mysteriously was transformed into a female lizardfolk. Greysword climbs down and joins them.
    - Kaldur informs the group that there's a troop of hobgoblins, as well as several facilities. He learns what we're looking for, and goes back off to find it.
    - Jeff decides to hang out with the party for a bit inside
    - Eventually Kaldur returns with the survey results, and the location of the entrance to the tunnels. After some more discussion, they kidnap the deep gnome that made the results. They leave the tunnels and hook up with the rest of the party. They agree to continue their discussion elsewhere.
    - Also, everyone got really angry that I let Greysword go, which made me chuckle.
    - We leave the camp, making our way towards the Old Man's forest to hide and discuss our next steps.
