Third Day of the Fire Moon
of Pahep Year 749 A.E.
(03.FMP.749)
This morning at around 6 in the morning we set out for
the mountain. A little later than I
would have liked, but some were up late last night and needed a bit of a wakeup
call. I provided that with the same song I sung in the Catch of the Day tavern
at the wharf. Mego did not appreciate it very much, Phrenk mixed him up a
pick-me-up though, and he was pleasant in no time.
Along the road I was telling everyone the story of what happened
to Sonlan in the feywild, when we heard cackling in the grass Next thing we knew we were being attacked by hyenas.
Stoic made a very impressive attack against a charging
one right off the bat and knocked it right on its back. Mia then swung her
flail right in the face of the other one. Tilly was pounced by a lioness, but
Stoic threw himself in the path of the lion and took the hit instead. Suddenly
a lion flew right behind my back with blood pouring out of one of its eyes; I
think Badur hiding in the grass was responsible for that one. Tilly shot the
first hyena, killing it. Mego blasted divine energy out of his body which
didn’t seem to do anything, but it sure looked pretty. I was distracted by the
blast however, and my arrow which was meant to be headed for the lioness missed
its mark. Mia and Badur were beating on
the other hyena; it didn’t look like it stood a chance. Stoic gave Gem a chance
to slip away while taking another attack from the lioness himself. Then I heard
Mia behind me growl right at the hyena, enraging it, he snapped at her but
missed. She lit it on fire, and it ran off into the field, and before we knew
it the field was ablaze.
Suddenly roaring came from my left, a corrupted lioness
came out, and then we heard a very, very loud roar come from my right. The corrupted
lioness charged right at Mia. Then a gigantic dire lion came out of nowhere and
charged me, he chomped down on my left leg. I must admit I became a little
distracted from the rest of the battle at that moment, I mean, I did have a bit
of a situation going on. I called out for Stoic in my distress, and I heard his
footsteps behind me and my heart felt relief. Stoic slammed the lion and it was
pushed 20 feet… unfortunately with me still locked in its jaws. I managed to
not sustain any damage and in the confusion got away from the lion. I stood up
and shot it right in the face, it looked like it hurt. The foul creature snapped at me but Stoic hit
it and shoved it another 20 ft.
Gem used bloom scroll to put out fire, and then cast
disorientation on lion. It became very confused and roared loudly, at the sound
of which the lionesses all attacked. Suddenly I was pushed back towards my allies;
my leg was bleeding quite a bit at this point. I took a moment to compose
myself and shift next to stoic. I shot at it with my bow; it stuck right in the
creature’s leg. Revenge.
Stoic stepped in front of me to protect me and shouted at
it. The Lion charged him, but Stoic was ready, he slammed the lion and pushed
it 10 feet. Though it was knocked onto its back it immediately stands up. I
could sense Badur behind me, moving to attack and kill the other lioness. The dire
lion lunges in anger at Stoic but its blindness seemed to still be in effect,
and it misses. ?Who Killed LION? The lion appeared to be dead, but suddenly
lunged an attack at Tilly, hitting him hard. Mego blasted the lion with holy
power nearly 30 feet. In the blast its front right leg was completely blown
off. It didn’t faze the lion though, he
charged Stoic on three legs yet missing him once again. I missed my shot and Stoic
knocks it over again but it gets right back up. Mia took off the lions left
foot with her mace. Lion made a final attempt to lunge but crumpled and fell
apart.
Stoic made sure it was dead by obliterating it and stomping
on it.
Loot: Tilly skinned the two lionesses and took some bones
and claws. Mego took the dire lion’s heart which was corrupted, but he performed
a ritual to preserve it. Mego also took a paw from a severed limb, and a paw
from one of the lionesses. Mia took 13 claws from various paws.
We then had a picnic lunch in the bloom area, and stocked
up on rations for the journey ahead. J
Ï POEM: STOIC THE HEROIC & CO. VS THE LIONS
I saw the great giant man
of stone
Face off with many lions,
but he was not alone.
His party would make quick
work of their pride,
And soon they would all be
decked out in hide.
Then a terrible roar, fear
cut to the quick,
A dire lion with teeth
dripping death necrotic.
It lunged for his friends
but he swat it away.
“None of my friends will be
injured this day!”
Over and over the lion
charged at his foe,
Missing time and again his
anger did grow.
A snap and my leg was
caught in the beast’s jaws,
My life but a swipe of the
great beast’s claws.
Suddenly the field was set
aflame by Mia’s Mace
Blaze was smothered by Gen,
Berries grew in its place
After great struggle I did
get away
And Badur slew the beast
which began to decay
Rejoicing was short, there
came another growl
The lion, undead, was back
on the prowl.
When Mego blasted the beast
with radiant light
And we finally put an end
to this long worn fight.
The lions in pieces we were
finally safe
And in the bloom I sat
happily stuffing my face.
6:30pm 2 hours
till sunset
We came to the forest path, going through the forest can be
a little risky, but we did not have the two days’ time it would take to go
around. A vote was taken and it was decided that we would go through the
forest.
Nightfall. We were all fatigued. We came across a small
clearing with a waterfall and a beautiful babbling brook. Mego purified the water, while Mia and Azi
warmed the pool. Unfortunately Badur chose one of the non-heated areas to jump
into, “Oh that’s cold on the piercings!”
I sat in the pool bathing and relaxing for a while. Tilly
while searching the pool saw something glint in waterfall. While to everyone’s
surprise Mia and Mego started getting frisky. They decided to head off to one
of the tents together. I could hear the demoness claiming to know some clever
tricks as they walked away.
Tilly stood on Stoic to help him grab shiny thing in the
waterfall. He removed it, but an eel crawled up his arm. At this he freaked out
and dropped it into the pool. I must admit I found this whole thing highly amusing.
Tilly, though, without missing a beat dove off of Stoic into the pool to grab
his treasure before it even hit the bottom. He rushed out of the water without
saying a word to anyone to examine his find in his tent. Goblins.
Meanwhile, Stoic the Heroic crushed the eel in his fist,
and we cooked it up for dinner.
Suddenly everyone heard bear growls coming from tent.
Before I could stop him, Stoic charged in, grabed Mego and threw him out of
tent. Mia, who was halfway through orgasm, suddenly found herself with Stoic
instead. She was a little confused but didn’t seem too fazed. Mego, meanwhile, was
outside of the tent bear ass naked and his fur was quickly disappearing. He ran
back into the tent quick as could be…. I think I need to introduce this guy to
Finn.
Ï POEM: MIA AND MEGO, UNLIKELY LOVERS
Mia and Mego, an unlikely
pair
One a little short, the
other most fair.
Mego devout Halfling, does
as he please
Mia of demons, swings her
tits in the breeze
The couple while getting it
on in a tent
The beast inside Mego
growled to vent
Stoic Heroic did hear the
beast’s call
Rushed into the tent ready
to brawl
An awkward situation for me
later that night
When Stoic asked me about
the two lover’s “fight”
Tilly then came to me at the pool with two potions to examine;
I identified one as a poison and one as a potion of regeneration. He thanked me
by letting me keep the potion of regen, although
I think I will give it to Stoic, as he has more use for such a thing.
Then we heard a rustling in the bushes. Stoic rushed over
to check and we were all startled to see Serene fall out of the bushes. It
seems she had been following us since we left the city. Stoic scooped her up
and Azi ran up Stoic like a tree to play with her. Gen reprimanded Serene,
“you’ve been taking those illusion lessons to heart haven’t you.”
I gave Serene a once over, she looked a little beat up,
but none too worse for wear. I took her to the pool to get cleaned and bandaged
up. We gave her some food and I took her to Stoic’s tent for bedtime. I tried
to leave her there but she implored me to sing to her. I obliged… I mean, how
can you resist that face?
Ï SONG: SLEEPY SERENE
Serene, Serene you are
still very young
The world is so big and the
road is so long
You will have plenty of
time when you’re older to see
All the worlds wonders with
stoic and me
But for now you must stay
home where you’re safe and sound
When you grow up many
monsters you’ll pound
But for now sleep softly
with stars in your head
And we will all be grateful that you are not dead.
Stoic: “I’m proud of you, little one.”
