Days 22-24

Session 9
As the party draw closer to Firefinger they are reminded that the jungle holds many dangers, some in disguise as helpless travellers, but upon reaching the colossal obelisk, they quickly realise that the true test was before them all along - the ability to climb a rope ladder.   Session MVP: Scully

Day 22

• In the morning, scully and Azaka spot a winged creature flying overhead, azaka says its a petrafolk, petrafolk had a bag,
• Scully reveals her night's work, a plague mask that contains a full suit of armour
• As the party travel up the river, the party come across a group of cannabalistic tribes men, cannibals are eating a zombie, the party decide to row past them without bothering them,
• Several hours later the party come across the wreckage of a canoe, two woman are sat on the bank of the river nearby, the party pull over to help, almost as soon as they go over to help, the two women reveal themselves to be sea hags and attacked immediately, the party manage to kill one of the hags but the other two escape,
• In the evening, on the second watch, undrul catches a glimpse of many serpentine eyes watching the party from the bushes, but this is the only event of the evening

• The party finally reach firefinger in the late afternoon, they decide to wait until morning as azaka tells them that the ptera folk hunt during the day, nothing happens during the night

• Azaka brings the party to the base of firefinger and wishes them luck, she doesnt join then because she is afraid of heights
• at the bottom of the ladder there is an elf lying in the mud, broken limbs crushed ribcage, likely fell out of the tower, he's super dead,
• The party ascend the first ladder into the first cavern, cavern has 10ft deep 15 ft wide pit in the middle, temor falls during his climb but scully saves him using a featherfall spell, the party encounter some giant wolf spiders in the cave but manage to deal with them, while waiting for scully and solana to get temor to the first floor, percy spots a patrol of ptera folk return to a floor above them and warns scully about them, eventually all the party make it to the top as scully and solana walk/climb them up
• the rope to the next floor has broken but there is a chimney that leads upwards further in the cavern, scully flies out and stays hidden while she reaches the next cavern entrance, baelin helps the rest of the party ascend to the next level, scully discovers a cavern full of stirges, temors ascent wakes the stirges up but percy deals with them by channeling the power of Arameg the dragon turtle as tentacles appear from the cavern walls to grapple and crush the stirges
• The party plan to draw the petra folk from the level above down the the cavern that the party are in below, baelin send his familiar to scout the next cavern up, it spots two pterafolk, the two pterafolk are sucessfully baited into the cavern that the Fellowship had been waiting but their screeches bring down the rest of the Pterafolk from the upper levels, after a brief encounter in which two Pterafolk were killed, the remaining Pterafolk retreated up to the caverns above where they wait for the party to make a move.
