When Marieka arrived, they conversed with her and she was favorably impressed with the offer to help the town. She told the party to watch the North and she would watch the South. The party, again, failed all their perception rolls and they were ambushed by the shadow goblins. They immediately took out Lia and despite a great battle by Isolde and Keth, the 4 shadow goblins overwhelmed the party and knocked them all unconscious. When they woke, they saw an imposing elf with a staff. He claimed to have helped them. All the shadow goblins were dead and the party restored to full hit points. When the party asked why he helped and how he knew all of their names, he told the party that "his lady told him." He would not reveal the identity of his lady but eventually told them that his name was Lithlowen. He claimed to have shortened it so that Keth could get the name right. He was not overly informative and told the party that they were to wait at the Inn until morning. He also named Freya, a ranger who followed them back to the Inn and stayed there with them.
The party did so. When morning came, the party Lithlowen was gone. After breakfast with Marieka and Keth telling how the party killed numerous shadow goblins, a larger young woman who was bedraggled came into the Inn. She identified herself as Heri Reyn, daughter of Ulayah and told everyone that her father and the spider farm were taken by the shadow goblins. She only barely managed to escape. Keth begrudgingly pledged the party to assist Heri and off the party went. The ranger insisted on taking the non-road route and the party found 4 boars. This time, the party succeeded in combat and the party decided that they were going to take some time to cook some of the pork before continuing on to the spider farm.Statistics: Posted by Amanda Rose — Sun Sep 18, 2016 10:16 pm
