Session 25: The Mind Shadowstone

General Summary

Chungle Log Tomato...uhhh...

Traps Bad. Chungle Hate Traps.

Party look around for traps. Chungle good at hiding, but also good at not stepping on bad things. Goq? Not so good at it. Dulb? Eh. Sunny just walkin’ around like brain empty. Probably smellin’ flowers or somethin’.
Then BAM—Goq almost no more Goq! Shadowy bad guy, Zhadrek, jump outta nowhere and try chop Goq’s head clean off. But Goq still got head, so Zhadrek not so good at choppin’. (Goq still mad, though.)
Chungle hide, like smart. Rest of party go lookin’ for stabby shadow guy in the cherry trees. Chungle listen. Chungle wait. Chungle watch Warby press fancy button on Mac-G... and then MAGIC WIZARD FALL FROM SKY.

Wizard From Heaven.

So like, Chungle expect Mac-G to do things like, maybe, send help? Maybe give us map? But no. Warby press button and POOF wizard fall outta nowhere.
Wizard go “ZAP” and dispel Zhadrek’s invisibility before warping away like he got somewhere better to be. Maybe wizard got date? Chungle dunno. But wizard very cool.
Now Zhadrek very visible, and party very angry. Warby and Goq bonk him real hard, Dulb stab-stab, and Chungle? Chungle hide. (Chungle best at hiding.)
Zhadrek go down. Big scary hunter? More like big dead hunter. Chungle win. Party win too.

Brain Rock Time. Chungle No Like.

After beating up stabby man, we walk north to big glowy rock. Big glowy rock on an altar. Look all peaceful. But Chungle not trust peaceful things.
And Chungle right! Because BAM, Chungle get sucked into big fake memory dream! (Except for Sunny. Sunny still out here doing nothing. Good for him.)
Chungle see Warby get lost in Brakkar Hold talking to big hairy guys about how to make bears listen. Chungle see Goq back in his home talking with Grimol before he left to go be adventure guy. Chungle see Dulb... actually Chungle don’t know what Dulb see. But he got out of brain trap real fast.
Warby and Goq take way too long to solve brain rock’s dumb riddle. Like, years. Chungle almost take nap.
Finally, though, rock happy with answers. Fake past go away.

Oh No. Big Bad Shadow Boys.

Except, when fake past go away, new problem show up.
Big scary guys made of shadow, fire, and ash pop into room. Chungle know what these are. Ankou. Shadow assassins that always work for someone worse.
Bad news.
Good news? Sunny wake up! (Took him long enough.)
Bad news again? Now Dulb all weird. He start stumbling like Sunny’s dumb brain sickness got contagious.
And now big shadow monsters wanna fight. Chungle no like. Chungle like hiding. But no choice.
Chungle gotta fight. Chungle ready.
End Chungle Log. Chungle still want tomato.
