An Emergency Situation (Pt 7)

Session 11 Recap

General Summary

After taking a break to rest at Richard's cabin, Bara remembers that there is a small seasonal hamlet to the south, directly in the projected path of the zombie menace. The party decides to leave for the settlement, called Avul's Port, and rides their horses hard to reach them before the zombies do, arriving in the early evening.
The party informs the local headman, Joseph Sorenson, of the potential dangers, and he rallies the people together to defend the flophouse. By twilight, the settlement is ready to face the zombies from inside the barricaded structure while Bara and Qas patrol the woodline. They encounter a pair of the zombies and put up a fight, but are forced to retreat when they spot a larger contingent of the plant-creatures start arriving on the scene. Once inside the flophouse, they join the defenders and are eventually to defeat the incoming horde. Miraculously, the entire settlement survives the battle, though injuries are widespread and there were many close calls. Additionally, Bara spots a cloaked figure leaving the scene of the battle, just as with the fight to defend the Wells' homestead.
The following morning, the party are hailed as heroes and saviors and Joseph presents Rayne with the enchanted blade that has been in his family for generations. Taking the blade, the party starts tracking the cloaked figure northward with the help of a local huntsman, discovering along the way that the figure is able to shapeshift, almost certainly exposing him as a druid.
