Events
- Dan got into a fight with an ogre. He won!
- Sir Laughlin and I descended the ladder into the pit! We find ourselves in a large room. Aside from the ladder, there's a single tunnel, from rough stone to smooth stone, above which appears to be a place for a missing brass plate.
- There are runes on the walls. They're like pictograms, depicting rituals of the green faith. Hidden within one of the pictograms, on the eye of an elk, is written, in tight script dyed in a dark ink and an unknown language: "beyond lies the rooms where we are free from Their eyes". The dye looks much newer than the original pictograms.
- We move down the tunnel of smooth stone. At a point it shifts to a bluish metal, at which point the dancing lights I had winked out. We walk on the metal for a bit, our magical items disabled, and coming to a broken metal door, beyond which was a semi-circular room. As we approach, Sir Laughlin notices a significant coldness, and his divine link feels severed. Within the room are a number of bones scattered everywhere, of dwarves, as well as carapaces of rather large insects. Upon the pedestals are metallic objects, which in the light shine a pink but otherwise appear bronze. There are several that are rods (some flanged, some not); one looks like 7/8th of a disc with grooves; another looks like a large sphere with a smaller sphere pressed into a side of it. In the back of the room, sunken into the ground, in a large cylinder with a large spike sticking out of it. It appears to descend farther than 60ft, and the lip between the spike and the wall of the cylinder is only roughly 3/4 foot thick. There's an awful lot of books and poop. I also found a small shard of mithril, embedded in one of the dwarven bones. In the corner, surrounded by dwarf bones, in a blue bumpy egg-like thing: The Frozen Heart of Cocytus. We leave it be, and return to the cave entrance.
- We explored the wilderness towards a camp, scavenging as we went.
- We found a cow! It turned into a rock! Er, it turned back into a rock. It was polymorphed! Weird.
Locations
