Featuring: Meghan as Elswyth
Elswyth, a wood elf druid. When she was younger her village was destroyed and her parents were killed. She is on a journey to figure out why were targeted.
Elswyth ran into the bar and begged us for help. Grunthias is a half-stone giant, her friend, who needs help. At the Lurkwood, there is the Stone Sand, there is a giant relic buried in the ground by Grunthias’ ancestors. It is about an hour to the east. There’s been strange things going on at the site. Every time some barbarians visit the site, one of the magical oak trees dies.
We decide to head to Mirabar to deliver The Weevil and reap our reward. We obtain his axes and a dagger that he had on his person. Ari and Brylwynn go into the town to meet Sorelisa and Naeremos at the Bar, but they are not at the bar. Outside, the guards see us tumbling with the Weevil and they escort us to The Marchion of Mirabar. We meet with Selen, The Marchion, and the Weevil is taken by three guards. We paid us 5 gemstones worth 1,000 gold each
The Marchion gives us a letter that will help us navigate and gain trust in Mirabar.The next day we head to Stone Sand with Elswyth taking the charge. We head eastward towards The Stone Sand to find her friend. Eslwyth shares that the Uthgardt Barbarians are from the north and there are several different tribes. The Great Worm tribe, Pearl is familiar with, are the ones most likely to be found near her home at the Spine of the World.
While walking, Three Dryads show up and make their presence known. We meet Ophelia, the one holding the staff, who seems to be the leader. Yuri hits on Glittr, and we also meet Laurel, the newest of the Dryads. She is sent to join us in the fight. She speaks Sylvan, which Pearl speaks. “I will gladly fight beside them and all of you” in common but in Sylvan she said “I dislike this dragonborn there is something off with her. I sense a corrupting energy. It is corrupting and cold.”
As we approach Stone Sand, we see it standing at about 100 feet high. As we approach, we see Olach Morrah next to Grunthias, which Elswyth knows he only does in desperate measures. He is petrified in this state, but he is preparing for something bad when he wakes up from the ritual. While exploring the area, Elswyth does see anything out of order or out of place.
A battle starts between the group and various spectors. We come out lucky on the other end after having beat a few spirits. Ari and Elswyth in Badger form begin digging 25 feet into the ground under an area of necrotic magic.
Grunthias awakens from his petrified state while we are digging. In the hole, Elswyth finds a large skull that is too large to be human. Confirmed it’s a giant’s skull. We decided to take it with us. We part ways with Grunthias and Elswyth as they head into the woods once again to keep them safe.
