The session began at Oleg's Trading Post<\/code> where you interrogated the captured bandit, Haps<\/code>. Gassi<\/code> made a memorable contribution by using a bizarre mixture of potatoes, honey, salt, and feathers to persuade the terrified captive to reveal the location of the bandit camp. You learned that it was a day’s journey to the southwest, near the river, and led by a woman named Kressle<\/code>. Before you left, Svetlana confronted the bandit and asked you to keep an eye out for her stolen wedding ring.<\/p>\n\n\n\nStag Lord<\/code> amulets, you set off on foot, leaving the wagon with Oleg. Svetlana also gave you a tip about a mysterious hermit named Bokken<\/code> who sells magic potions to the east.<\/p>\n\n\n\nGassi<\/code>, with a mix of logic and flattery, managed to initiate a dialogue with the invisible guardians. They disliked “big folk” like the bandits, and after Nym<\/code> sacrificed one of the amulets as a gift, they gave you a vision pointing south along the river, towards the bandit camp. As a small prank, they also stole Zogg<\/code>‘s compass.<\/p>\n\n\n\nGassi<\/code> as a prisoner, the rest disguised as bandits using the amulets. The attempt to talk your way in failed catastrophically when warning shots quickly escalated into a full-scale battle. The fight was intense. Archers in watchtowers rained arrows down on you while Kressle<\/code>, armed with dual axes, proved to be a fearsome opponent. Zogg<\/code> became her focus and was badly injured, but was saved by Gassi<\/code>‘s healing magic. Aurelio<\/code> acted as a tank, tying up Kressle<\/code> with feints and insults, while Nym<\/code> climbed a tower to silence one of the archers. Nym<\/code>‘s sword displayed a strange transformation into a kind of sword-whip that left deep, claw-like wounds. In the end, you managed to fell all the bandits, but Kressle<\/code> bled out from her injuries before you could interrogate her.<\/p>\n\n\n\nStag Lord<\/code>‘s hideout. As you made camp for the night, Nym<\/code> returned from a conversation with the Fey. They thanked you and revealed that the “big baddie” was about a day’s march away, but warned that you were not yet ready. They also mentioned other enemies, possibly poachers, in the opposite direction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
Stag Lord<\/code>‘s position is unknown, but the Fey hint that he is a day’s march from the bandit camp and that you are too weak to face him now.<\/li>\n\n\n\nBokken<\/code>. Can he help you with more than just potions?<\/li>\n\n\n\nNym<\/code>‘s weapon, which seems to be able to transform into an entirely different, more brutal weapon.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
After a well-deserved rest in the cleared bandit camp, you have returned to the Fey’s domain at the riverbend. You have decided to follow their advice and investigate the threat from the poachers to the northwest before taking on the more powerful Stag Lord<\/code>. Will the Fey continue to be your fickle allies, and what new dangers await in the unexplored parts of the Stolen Lands<\/code>?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
