Session 5: Escape the Island pt 2 Report

General Summary

The Mooring Isles of Xorjaradu are a dangerous and unfriendly environment, and the jungle bears no love for the party. After dispatching a large polar bear and bringing it's two cubs under their wing, the party plots their strategy off the island.   Ronn's familiar has brought information regarding the layout of the island, along the southbound river there is a stronghold of Kuo-Toa, and a holy site of theirs in the woods to the northwest of that fort. Along the south isle a number of primitave villages dot the coastline. The party elects that a southbound route is best, where they will investiagete the scene of the crash, seek out the captain, and try to find a more sea-worthy boat.   however, before they could depart, the green dragon they spotted earlier once again circles this area. Smelling the dead bear he lands and feasts while the party cowers in a nearby cave. The dragon was able to sense the presence of the party and bade them reveal themselves.   Upon walking out, the party immediatley swore fealty to the dragon. This pleased Andronaxes, and he at once set the party to a task as a test of their strenght. They were to seek out a Sea Elf by the name of Syrik who has scorned Andronaxes. They are to kill him and bring the head so that Andronaxes might eat it. With a warning to not test the might of Xorjaradu, the dragon departs.   The party retrieves their stashed boat, dispatching four stronger Kuo-Toa who discovered it, and read the mind of one they captured. These Kuo-Toa are supernaturally bound to the service of Xorjaradu, and were sent here to seek out escapees.   Newly informed about their status on the island, the party has a successful journey south down the river and, disguised as kin, past the Kuo-Toa fortress. On the south Isle they discover disparate communities of 'rebel' Kuo-Toa, who are considered a part of the collection if Andronaxes is to be believed. A leader amongst one of the tribes exchanges information and a nights rest to the party for their bear meat.   Somewhere in the forests of the islands interior, the Elf Syrik communes with the other tribes, he is a friend to the cause of the rebels however. This Kuo-Toa then offers the party a place in a potential fight back against the strength of Xorjaradu.   The session ends on a long rest.
