Journey to Waterdeep: Session 2
General Summary
Our heroes left their lunch a half day out of Barakmordin. Shortly after lunch, they were ambushed by a pair of ankhegs, which they quickly dispatched without any trouble. They then spent an hour harvesting what they could from the bodies. During their afternoon break, they discovered the skeletal remains of a manticore under some wild raspberry bushes. They took the bones. Just as they were settling down for their evening's rest, they heard a goblin patrol nearby and neatly and quickly dispatched the patrol, although the leader escaped.
During Thar's watch he heard a noise and upon investigating, found a rat trying to make off with some of their food. He then was annoyed by something in a nearby tree dropping nut shells on his head, so he attacked the tree and proceeded to fell it right into the middle of the camp, nearly landing it on Lylanna's tent.
The following morning, Thar blundered into a patch of poison ivy the rest of the party had managed to avoid. Shortly after lunch, they noticed some faint humanoid figures shadowing them. However, they were unable to learn more about them. Not long after, they ran into a trio of ogres. Not hesitating, they proceeded to battle the ogres and slew them almost as quickly as they did the goblins the night before. As they settled in for the night, the fire inexplicably flared up towering over the campsite briefly before dying back down to normal.
Early into the next day on the road, they noticed the beginnings of a log cabin being constructed. Although no one was present currently, it was clear it had been working on not long before. A few hours later, they encountered a large boulder in the road with at least two goblins crushed under it. After a pretty quiet day on the road, they made camp surrounded by wildflowers. As it was getting dark, a trio of travelers hailed them. After allowing to camp with them, they erected a tent for themselves, and Thorvasar chatted with their leader. He quickly learned that she was an assassin in the employ of "V" or Vedthor's Vipers. He also learned that not only was he no longer being hunted by them but that now they were more concerned with his safety. She also spoke to Thar about keeping Thorvasar safe and gave him 100 gold pieces to continue doing so. About an hour after most of them retired and Thorvasar was keeping watch, the bloody body of a deer fell into the middle of the camp with a loud thump.
