Session 78: The forest of a thousand corpses Report
General Summary
The party trudges through the willowwood forest with an angry redcap on a makeshift leash. Avoiding peat bogs and brushes as the little angry creature curses at them. As they continue through the forest Cordelia notices a bunch of arms sticking up from the ground. As she notifies the others a small crow lands on a branch above them and says "its time" and zombies start diggin themselves out of the ground. A fight is had as the party kills zombie after zombie while wrestling the redcap trying to continue his janitorial duties. The fight ends with Aaliyah shooting the redcaps head off. Then they continue until they reach a large river. They decide to cut down a willow to make a bridge which almost ends in disaster, but torcoll manages to just about save the attempt. The roots around the tree starts moving and so does the other trees around so the party sprints across the tree to the other side. Torcoll however stumbles and slips into the freezing, rushing water below. Cordelia instinctivley grabs Aaliyahs cap of waterbreathing and jumps into the river after Torcoll. With cordelia swimming downstream and torcoll trying to swim against they manage to connect and Cordelia dimension doors them both out.
afterwards they walk for a bit until they reach a willow with lots of bodies dangling from it. A skeleton speaks to them revealing that the trees snatch people up and hangs them. They laugh for a bit and nicknames him Ricken. Analysing the passage they got from Kornwall they believe themselves to be close to the hag and decide to walk back a bit to get some rest away from the hanging tree.
