Session 20: Miss Fizzle!
General Summary
Karkum led the party to a place to make came. It was a large cavern chamber with a small natural lake in it. Large bioluminescent mushrooms lit the chamber and the party began to ready for the night. Wren was placed in a deep part of the alcove, where he was restrained and the only exit from the alcove was barricaded by large rocks and the party waited to what they assumed was nightfall and Wren's transformation. While they waited and prepared camp, the party noticed some gray slime-like substance floating along the edge of the lake. With Illevaere's prodding, Bolvaic tasted it. While it did no damage to him, it did not taste good. Bolvaic took to swimming and lounging in the cave lake, though the party noted on several occasions that it seemed as if there was something in the deeper part of the underground lake, but it did not make itself known. Wren transformed into a werewolf, easily breaking from his bonds and he charged the barricade blocking the alcove, but Levi was there and was able to soothe the werewolf. While Wren did not change from his wolf form, Levi was able to keep him docile throughout the night. During the watches, the party kept noticing movement within the lake, but nothing emerged from it. In the morning, Wren changed back to his human form, relieved and thankful that Levi was able to keep his fury in check. The party broke camp and Karkum led them deeper down the descending cave tunnel to Mysafiestal's abode. The party noticed an animated severed hand crawling and emerging from a small passageway that they assumed would lead to Mysafiestal's lair. Illevaere summoned a Myconid Sprout from their cloak and sent it through the small tunnel to see if the Necromancer was there. The myconid spotted the dark elf Necromancer, happily exclaiming to Illevaere, "Miss Fizzle!" Illevaere recalled the sprout and the party prepared to enter the doors to confront the necromancer. Bursting through the door to attack him, the party found that he had swarms of crawling claws able to come to his aid and the party began their fight.
