Excursion on the Path

by Callum Oak

Dear readers,
Just yesterday I met an odd assortment of fellows in need of a few people to aid their travels to Caves of Chaos. While I have heard many weird things pertaining to the caves I was bored, and it sounded like fun, so I decided to join them. The fellow named Rollium, if that is how you spell it, loaned me a tent for the night. It was actually quite comfortable. On our way down the path from the city we met some officer or general guy. He, along with others, bet that we wouldn't return, well not in one piece. So, doing the smart thing I decided to bet that we would return. He was fairly intimidating, but I got free coins from it so I'm happy. As we traveled along the path some sort of huge beast waltzed right onto us, after further inspection I realized it was an undead elephant. I barely had a moment to think that before I got rammed by this beast, I ended up being knocked unconscious. Rollium decided to save me, I'm starting to like that priest, and I was back to full health. We battled the thing for a while and I almost died again when the elephant attacked me. Rollium saved me AGAIN, but not without consequences. I had broken my legs and he had partially healed them. I really need to get them checked out after this. Anyways, we set up camp and we all took turns taking watch. Nothing out of the ordinary happened and we proceeded to go the mines. I wanted to head back, but they all wanted to go on so I thought it was better not to argue. That's all for now readers.
