journal entry days 5-9 of adventuring
We begin to head back to report our success to the king. unfortunately WOLVES! happens.
It is a easy fight and we vanquish the wolves
one of the peasants got really riled up in battle and almost took my head off in her rage! we manage to calm here down though
we arrive at the kings castle
I wonder if the king will mind that were dripping in wolf and spider blood.
we talk to the king and get sent on a quest to kill another creature. I was hoping for something a bit better. oh well
But first we go to a nearby village to hopefully get some better armor. I end up trading all the elf and human meals for an iron throwing spear, I think its best not to ask questions in this situation. I also get some new armor for all the knives we found in the spider's layer. Leroy also got himself another belt for all his kills.
We find the layer of the other monster have to kill. A creature of the night the locals told me.
We enter the layer and confront the beast!
We manage to defeat it thanks to the peasant swarm tactic we have been using lately. We also gather up all the loot except for the meals this time. I dont want to carry the rotting corpses of people all the way to a shop. and head back to the fortress.
is the king mad! He sent me to go kill a rock. Well I guess I have to humor him. Ill just go to the spot on the map, pick up a random pebble then bring it back saying "This is the terrible beasts head!" while pretending to limp.
I look on the map he gave us and I feel this is going to be a long walk
during one of our naps (of which I am not mentinoing becaus according to the rest of the party no one wants to read about them. well I guess your just going to have to miss the story about mr. cuddle bears and he time he wrestled a dragon to death.) a cougar awaked us however he was taken care of.
unfortunately there was a fork in the road made from impassable mountains and we took the wrong direction
as we were traveling in the correct direction we were ambushed by goblins!
