Session 4 - "Vampire" Tavern
Content Warning: Torture of Hags
The party passes through the farmlands without further incident, but they continue to hear the tell-tale, blood curdling wailing in the distance as they entire the main town area of Leeside. Each building they pass is singed, partially or fully collapsed, and completely abandoned. They look around the buildings, finding no sign of life.
They come across a partially collapsed tavern. The outside is burnt, with a barely decipherable sign on the outside saying "The Farhand Inn." The tavern is made mostly out of stone, unlike a lot of the buildings around. While not completely unstable, the stone is beginning to crumble after years of being exposed to the elements. The door structures seem safe enough to get through, and they enter.
They smell rotting provisions emanating from the back rooms. There's chairs and tables everywhere, flipped over and broken. As they looking around, they hear a hissing sound. Three hags, disguised as Vampires, emerge from the back, and the party enters initiative.
The highlight of the fight is Reese using their wings of flying, grappling a hag, and taking them out of the tavern through one of the broken windows. They fly up with the hag, threaten her because they know she's not a real vampire, and then proceed to drop her from incredible heights. Then they lay on hands and do it again.
The session ends as the party pokes around in the back rooms after defeating the hags, finding a note written in Azriel's handwriting: "If anyone finds this, you must leave. It's not safe."
