(G54 - OR 29/05/09)

Today they also discovered that Bokk's donkey was named 'Flaps'. He'd forgotten where he
had got it from, and thought incorrectly, that he might have stolen it. Banjax weaved a
story revolving around a little old lady that had been off to the market to sell it to
so she could buy medicine for her sick daughter.
Bokk was so concerned that they all even turned back on themselves looking for this
fictional woman until Dana talked some sense into the easily led half-orc.

In the evening, when looking for a place to camp they found a cave that was home to
three very unfriendly goblins. In the fight that followed, Dana and Banjax killed two
while Bokk was distracted by his donkeys bottom (better not to ask) and another was
gravely wounded. Banjax smashed its teeth in with a rock.

Much to Dana's distress Bokk and Banjax dined on goblin flesh that night.

Again Banjax played a trick on Bokk, convincing the simple-minded half-orc that the
donkey was possessed by using his 'Ghost Sound' spell. This ended in a fight between
Bokk and his donkey which resulted in both parties being very upset with each other! So
much so that Dana took ownership of poor Flaps.

(day 4)

Due to wanting to wait and recover from their injures the trio waited in the cave
another day.
During this time the goblin that Banjax had dubbed 'Aunt Petunia' awoke but lapsed
into unconsciousness again when the bard shook it.

During the night, Dana let the goblin go.

(day 5)

Banjax used a Cure Light Wounds spell on Bokk so they were all healthy enough to set
off again.

In the morning they stopped and chatted to what appeared to be a man called 'Zack'.
They stopped and had something to eat and Banjax played a song called 'Bivouac On A
Mountain Side' that deeply affected Bokk.
Once they set off again they realised that Zack might have been more than he had
appeared to be when they say a mighty Bronze Dragon take off from some trees.

Early that evening they arrived in the small town of Seawell Pass and entered the
'Legless Goblin Inn'. After arranging food and rooms Banjax played a few songs while
Bokk talked to the landlord. It appeared there had been "trouble 't mine" and
some miners had gone missing. Not only that, but a disease was in town, also thought
to be as a result of the troubled silver mine. The landlord then told Bokk that tough
adventurer types might do well to talk to the mayor of Seawell about it.

Meanwhile, a rather drunken Banjax had strolled off into the night. When spotted by
two town guards and running off for no real reason he was arrested, rather unjustly
he felt, and locked up for the night. He amused himself by composing a ribald song
about how all town guards are idiots.

(day 6)

In the morning though, Bokk and Dana went to talk to the mayor, a man called
'Christopher Sendars' who told them more about the silver mine. While there they
could here Banjax singing from the gaol across the street so the mayor sent them
along with a servant called Jimi to negotiate his release.
When Banjax was free and the situation was explained to him he said,
'Why should I help this backward down of hicks? Let them all die of crotch-rot for
all I care!',
Jimi replied 'You can go back into the prison then.'
The bards only reply to that was to run off as fast as his legs could carry him.

However, when Bokk and Dana went to the general store to pick up some provisions
they found Banjax there doing much the same.
