DAY 154 (12th Eleasis)(August) cont ...
That night Fenrir went, all on his lonesome and it an improvised costume to the House
Moonstar for the debue costume ball of Eva Spirit.
It was a more subdued affair to what he was used to, but he had a reasonable time and talked
to many admiring young nobles.
He headed home around midnight.
DAY 155 (13th Eleasis)(August)
In the morning the 'Brewery Gang' met again to try their luck underneath the OJB
once more.
There was Oz, Fenrir, Corum, Sylvia, Nestoone, Raya and Aldiun. They immediatley come into
contact with the hobgoblin squatters that had moved into the main corridor and were
attacked by a group of six of them.
Corum and Alduin moved to the fore, the corridor was only ten feet wide, and took on
the warriors. Arrows and javelins rained down on the party from the back but did not
do much damage.
Meanwhile Oz went around in the other direction check they were not about to be flanked
and ran into another group who indeed were attempting to do just that.
Between the blows of the fighters and the spells and arrows of Fenrir and Raya the first
group were either slain or chased off. Oz was injured by the time he got back to his
friends, but Corum and Alduin had enough time to meet the new threat, Corum with his
sword and shield, Alduin with his frosty magic breath.
More hobgoblins were slain and two more ran away. The adventurers carefully followed
the corridor around and found a new tunnel that the monsters had tunneled up from
below. It was crude and small and they could when they threw down a light they saw
some ugly faces looking up at them.
The hobgoblins then pulled some ropes and collapsed the tunnel, evidently deciding
that they were better off wherever it was they had come from.
And so the party turned once more to the problem of the stone golem in the main room.
At first they threw fire bombs at it, which seemed to have some effect, but it still
managed to reach out of the room to hit people with its massive paint brush.
Other tactics were tried and Oz rushed in a couple of times to try the door at the
other end but was not strong enough to move it. He also bravely tried putting a
barrel of oil at its feet and did some further damage, but had to be healed each
time by Sylvia as he took powerful blows from the statue.
In the end, although the Golem did seem the worse for wear, they decided to all
rush in at once and barrel through the doors.
This tactic seemed to work as it swiped at Aldiun as they went past but it was
too slow to try a strike at anyone else. Once everyone else had crossed it went
back to its plinth and resumed its pose of an artist in deep muse with its
brush held aloft.
They got their breath back and planned their next move. Most of the magic users
had used up most of their power so it seemed like a good idea to take some
rest before attempting anything further.
The crypt was not an ideal bed chamber, but they had all come prepared.
