All right boys and ghouls...

by Barton Quagmire

We didn't really have time to wash off the goblin guts before getting a new adventure tossed at us. After checking in with Decius to get some of that sweet reward money (200 gp for bringing back the wagons of trade goods + $200 for clearing out the goblin nest) and learning that he'll pay a bounty going forward for monster ears, I went looking for Cordia only to find she was a bit distraught over her friend Rozalyn who has gone missing and seems to have been abducted, as have several other townsfolk.
 
Locals are quick to blame the local Kobald enclave, but it didn't seem right to us so we went and talked with the local leadership (after a stop in a place that serves rat stew... Hard pass). We've been offered another 200gp to solve this little mystery so off we went into the catacombs under Rennes.
 
Also, catacombs are creepy. Living up to their reputation. No sooner had we found our way in than we were set upon by ghouls. The front line took care of the first set, but then we got zombies, spiders and another animated suit of armor (had fun delivering the killing blow that that pile of rust). The Wand of Web has been handy, but it doesn't catch all of them.
 
And then this last door opened to reveal a witchy looking woman and an undead fella that put up a good fight. She disappeared fast leaving her buddy and a couple ghouls to cover her retreat. Should be interesting tracking her down...
 
Oh, and Verx gave us all titanium rings so I guess we're going steady now?
