Session 46: fighting a waiver (that means dragon)

by Cali Zendyr

We roll initiative and the battle begins.
 
On her turn, Jade remembers what she knows about wyverns and deduces that there's probably another one nearby. She warns us and says we need to scatter. We do so, still surrounding the wyvern, and start pelting it with attacks. After two rounds though, Jade is proven right and a second wyvern arrives, this one red and heading straight for Jade. Wulf casts vicious fury on the first wyvern though, and it goes to attack the one that just showed up.
 
The first wyvern is killed, and the second one goes for Quell. We hit it a bunch of times and Cali finally uses their flame arrows spell for the first time. There's another round of combat and then Cali kills the last wyvern with their flaming arrows and still has 10 flaming arrows left for the next hour! (Mostly writing that so I remember.)
 
We continue down the path and arrive near the bonfire where the lighthouse used to be, and come across a group of sheep and a dog. A shepherd rushes down the hill toward his sheep and approaches us. We tell him that we found one of his sheep but also killed the wyverns that got it. He's overjoyed and ranting about how someone has claimed to be sending someone to clear out the wyverns for ages but no one ever has! We ask about the lighthouse when he says he's in charge of it, and is damn sure that there "ain't no damn ghost!" He leads us up there when we seem convinced that there could be a ghost.
 
There's a hole in the ground that seems like it could be an old cellar from the lighthouse that used to be there, and Quell is interested in it. Jade finds a magical silver pendant on the ground with a chain snapped in half. She says it's some form of divination magic. Quell drops a glass shard down the hole and when it hits the floor at the bottom she deduces it's probably 10-20 feet down. Cali shoots a flaming arrow down there (9 left) and they see a shaft that leads down to a room of sorts, with some wooden debris that's collapsed inward, as if this is where the ladder used to be. Quell tells the others and we decide to make our way down. Quell asks the old man if anyone has been down there since he's been watching it, and he says the only person who's wanted to was a 17 year old, too young for sure! Anyone else old enough hasn't wanted to. He tells us to stay safe down there, and Quell tells him that the ghosts are scared of HER. He laughs, and she tells him that if he hears a voice in his head, it's just her.
 
Wulf considers raging before jumping in the hole, and we try to decide the best way to descend. Wulf jumps in, and Quell jumps in after telling him to catch her. Cali has the shepherd help them set up the rope and they and Jade both descend that way.
