Recap 13 Supplemental: The Less Than Magnificent Seven

November 10th, 2007

After defeating the pirates and regaining their ship, the adventurers returned to pick up Katherine before returning to the mainland. Once in Betaya, they resupplied and learned things had grown steadily worse during the time we'd been away. It was decided that the mirror should be left with Snow's people in Betaya instead of carrying it across the countryside. The next step was to check in at Beeblebrox's castle before heading to Mangar's Woods.

When they got there, the castle was a mess. Beeblebrox was nowhere to be found. Vain appeared. He would not speak but now follows Brecaryn. While searching the castle, the party met up with Lashtal who had come to speak with Beeblebrox, as well. She did not know what had happened. Everyone travelled back to North Luka together before going their separate ways. Lashtal was able to spare 4 horses for the party.

Unfortunately, due to Alana's less than familiar association with tact, the party had to leave Yokel before it was fully dawn. The group was attacked by an ooze monster that consumed one of the horses. Luckily, the sun came out and dried up the ooze before more was lost. They travelled hard, trying to make it to the next town before nightfall. On the way, the party was attacked by nightmare birds that birthed stirges from their wings. After taking quite a beating, they pressed on until they reached the town of Bryn Sturgis. The people had such a look of desperation that they could not ignore their plea for help. Orcs had come demanding their crops and were scheduled to return the next day to collect. The party agreed to stay and protect the village. While Malouf went to the orc caves to determine their numbers, the rest of the party prepared for the coming battle. A few surprises were prepared for the invaders. Malouf returned with info from his reconnaissance mission. The party would be facing wargs and ogres in addtion to orcs. Everyone settled in to wait.

Ignoring the group's initial offer to withdraw and never bother the villagers again, battle ensued. Brecaryn and Alana positioned themselves on top of a watchtower in order to pick off orcs with spells and arrows. Malouf, Snow, and Lieralyn stood on the bridge to meet the main attack while Josy stayed close at hand to provide any necessary healing. Vain did nothing. Unexpectedly, instead of allowing the villagers to act as cannon fodder, Flerm took up a position guarding them.

In the end, Lieralyn was critically injured, Snow lost consciousness, and Malouf was killed before the battle was finished. Luckily, the adventurers won the battle and Josy had a scroll to resurrect the dead. Lieralyn's injury could not be tended by any in the party or the village. They would have to wait until they could find a priest in another town.

As a reward for helping them, the poor villagers gave the party a strange sword that had a tightly wound spring instead of a blade. They said it was given to them as a gift by travelling gnomes and they didn't know what to do with it:
