Session 14

Summary


A deep dwarven spider with clusters of crystals attacked the party. Admist the fight, Helka got paralyzed and posioned, with Talmirr also being poisoned from a smaller spider. Helka valiantly slide under the spider and hit its exposed belly, but upon the second time ended up underneath and therefore a prime target for the deep spider. After dispatching it and with one last little spider remaining, Falkos swatted it with his hand. The party harvested the deep spider's clusters to varying success.

- Falkos cooked the mushrooms he collected whilst taking his turn taking watch. He burnt the mushroom skewers he made from chopping the nearby bedframes....

- Wisteria, after putting on a mask along the wall (which was found to be demonic in nature and used to ward off spirits), noticed a piano in the corner. Upon playing and meeting a deathly figure who asked her to "play dead", she played it on the piano and obtained a key to doors the party later opened.

- Helka detected a spirit, and after being horrified by the sight, she showed her divine symbol to deter it...for a time.

- Talmirr pushed a keg he found around the entire dungeon, but ultimately the ladder proved final to that plan. A good attempt to resell, however.

- Party remained uncharmed after using the joy mask and the skeletal pointer to open the passage. The Jabberwocky stood in an obsidian statue in its gangly, imposing prison. It spoke to the party, but also to Riani and Ivin after expressing displeasure they were there to apprehend a drow that he was protecting. It recognised something afoul on Helka, and though she did not state what it was, he warned her of choosing the side of Beshaba. After words were exchanged, the Jabberwocky asked 3 questions:

  • What makes you happy?
  • What gives you hope?
  • What have you done to do good in the world?

In addition, he asked whether the party (after hearing the disdain) sought the "dwarves' destruction". The party answered that they did not, which pleased the Jabberwocky, citing that they are "smarter than most."

Appeased with, according to he, at least one answer from each of the party, the Jabberwocky agreed to answer 4 questions from the party. He also gifted them with 4 magical gifts.
