Date: 18 October 2011. Present: Eric (Goblina), Matthew (Jaren) Zach (Haley).
In the aftermath of the fight between the party (mainly Dolo) and the Vilstrithiani-mutated rishtuk, our heroes assisted Dolo, providing him with healing items, and Jaren leashed his new pet. Dolo’s critical wound caused him pain and inconvenience, and Jaren found it inconvenient to heal it.
The party headed onwards, resting without making extra progress in the evening.
The following day, the party entered a region where water was an increasing presence. Tracks in the blue-grey algae continued to lead the way, until they reached a pool at the end of a cave with an underwater tunnel leading on from it.
Having already felt the effects of wading through cold water, the party stopped to consider how to progress. Their solution was to have Zirg conjure a great metal tube that would seal off the underwater tunnel while allowing the party to enter it. Zirg conjured the object successfully, but failed to get it on target. The party, led by Malack, worked together to push the tube into place and waited for the water to drain.
It drained only very slowly. Zirg was called on to conjure a plunger-like object, which he was able to animate and move down the tube to flush the water through the tunnel. After two or three attempts, the water drained sufficiently to allow the party (and their growing menagerie, apparently) to enter. The system of underwater tunnels beyond was not too great, but would have been a challenge to swim through while holding their breath.
At the far end, the party rediscovered the tracks of the elf and his group.
Goblina, Haley and Jaren get 3 XP; Malack and Zirg get 1 XP.
