(G55 - KT 12/06/09 Friday)
After lunch, the intrepid heroes set off, Bokk only slightly perturbed by the
talking donkeys. Also accompanying them was a young cleric called Fredorick.
They reached the mine in the early evening. Banjax and Dana went forward to scout
out the entrance, but were surprised when Bokk simply marched down the main
entrance, discovered a body under a mine cart, lifted the cart and set of a
Thunderstone trap.
Realising whatever had made its home in the mines was now alerted to their
presence they chose the left turn at the T-junction and arrived at a door.
Again Bokk acted rashly and opened the door only to be hit by four crossbow
bolts. He staggered back, but closed the door when the others shouted at him
to do so. After a long argument, accusations and discarded wild plans the
merry bad charged into the room once more and found themselves battling
kobolds.
Once in motion, the combined blows of Bokk, Dana and Banjax made short work
of the enemy and they even managed to capture one alive, which the bard
questioned. After it bit him on the leg he killed it though.
There was another door in this room, which was a mess hall, which they had
learned was a larder. Opening the door they were again shot at and this time
covered in a deluge of flour from sacks strung across the ceiling.
Alarmed by this trap Bokk and Dana leapt back into the mess hall and locked the
door.
More arguments, more wild plans and eventually a very exasperated Fredorick
convinced the disparate voices to accept his logic. Bokk rushed in, using a table
as a shield, which he then hurled at the defending kobolds. The fighting was
intense but brief and another five kobolds were killed.
Bokk and Fredorick searched the larder and were attacked by a giant weasel that
the barbarian killed and put in a sack. Four rats that leapt out a barrel were
also dispatched.
Fredorick ordered the corpses put in the larder, the food in the mess hall and once
this was done, the fellows settled down for the night, to rest and recover.
