The group has returned to the Wistari Village of Wood Elves and last session, the party ran into a Green Dragon. They also encountered some Skeletons in the rooms beyond. They were covered in old clothes and holding tarnished weapons. The room they were in had 15' high ceilings and there were some Hobgoblins with their eyes sewn shut. They also had spikes through their lips and nails through their forehead skin. The Dragon just barely fit inside the room.

The party has once again returned to the Wistari Village, home of Wood Elves in the vast woodland of the West Reach of Hollow.

When we arrived, the Woold Elves say that they sent out some Scouts to Taughanock Falls and found no Xvarts. They felt that overall it was fairly clear, except for some monsters that still reside in the lowest level. Otherwise, there is no occupancy of monsters. There was an outpost building that was built with two guards posted. The say that rituals were performed at Taughanock to restore it.

During that time, they were attacked by a group of Hobgoblins and a Green Dragon, which killed one of the Elves. One of the other Elves got away and they have not returned to the Falls ever since.

They tells us that no Xvarts have been spotted in the Falls area for over the last year. They do occasionally find them in the woods however. As such, they have defeated small groups and one large group. The large group had a party configuration and they were accompanied by a Leader riding atop of a Mammoth. The Xvarts have not attacked the Wistari Village but they are raiding the nearby woods.

They are grateful for their slain Elf friend and they will cast healing spells on wounded characters. They can spare up to five Cure Light Wounds spells. Jacob is healed for 15 hp and is now at 23 of 47 hitpoints.

Our Longbowmen Mercenaries were annihilated last time. Sarkas has also arrived and was able to heal a bunch of people.

We determine that Owls have Ultravision.

The party has hired Montesy, the Animal Handler.

We travel up the gorge and go up the east side of Taughanock Falls, through the woods.

These are a massive set of roaring falls that we can see out of the treeline. We spot a couple of Hobgoblins on the upper level. They appear as two big humanoid shapes though unmistakably, these are Hobgoblins, Lazathu sees through his Owl familiar that they are normal Hobgoblins.

Maervahr lands his Hippogriff on the platform and sees a bunch of Hobgoblins that begin coming out. He quickly flies back and regroups.

Only a couple of the Hobgoblins remain outside, looking around, and then they run back inside, leaving the entrance deserted. The party goes up there with Sarkas, Maervahr, Thorgard and Jacob.

We are now at the mouth of the waterfall but five minutes later, no Hobgoblins come out. Everyone is now under the roaring falls, waiting. Scratch that, we went to the secret door.

We cannot hear through the door due to the falls but Thorgard can see inside. There are four Hobgoblins.

Maervahr and Qipsil are standing away from the door as they shout out something in the Lawful Evil tongue then Thorgard sees them run off. Jacob pushes open the stone door but nobody is anywhere to be seen inside.

We have Continual Light coins and magic swords. Sarkas also has a Continual Light spell and due to a previous blessing received from the goddess Cine, Fandillas automatically gets a Prayer spell effect and a Strength spell.

As we wait outside, two rounds later…nobody comes. We enter through the secret door and get to the big hallway where everything is still silent. Thorgard gets a Strength spell and now has 18/50 Strength.

We move up.

We encounter two of the stitched up hobgoblins, holding their halberds up aggresively.

• Maervahr is casting Shield.
• Qipsil guards Maervahr.

Each bang their halberds out and make loud sounds that echo. Maervahr's Shield spell goes off and lasts for 40 rounds. Shield grants an AC 4 and a +1 to Saves.

Qipsil still guards Maervahr as Maervahr waits to see the outcome of the fight.

Turn Undead is used by both Josalyn and Sarkas against the Hobgoblins, in case they are undead monstrosities. Fandillas hits one for 7 damage as Jacob slays one!

• Maervahr casts Protection from Evil.
• Qipsil charges to attack.

Jacob slays the other one with a hit for 17 damage as Protection from Evil goes off and lasts for 16 rounds.

• Maervahr uses a Wand of Conjuration to summon 3 Monster Summoning II spells.
• Jacob goes into the chamber.

Jacob finds that there are some more Hobgoblins inside.

Meanwhile, we can see a large pile of treasure including about 20,000 ep and several pieces of jewelry and gems.

Jacob will shoot one with a magic arrow (id 107) and finds that the arrows are +2! The Wand of Conjuration will take 3 rounds to summon the Monster Level 2 (all 3 at the same time).

Suddenly, a Dragon comes out of Invisibility as it charges! The Green Dragon is doing a full attack routine and Jacob is hit by one claw which disrupts his Stoneskin.

• Maervahr is casting Mirror Image.
• Qipsil is guarding Maervahr.

The Green Dragon does NOT have AC 2. Meanwhile, the Mirror Image goes off and creates two images. The Aid spell goes off and gives Fandillas 3 hp as Thorgard charges in.

Thorgard has to save versus breath as the same time Thorgard hits and does 12 damage to the Dragon. The Green Dragon breathes! Thorgard saves against the breath and takes half damage which is only 16 damage.

Jacob needs to hit AC 2 and the Dragon had a Protection but still takes 18 damage! Maervahr hands off his weasel, Atena, to Qipsil and runs down the stairs. He encounters 7 Giant Toads, 3 Gnolls and 5 Giant Centipedes.

Meanwhile, Sarkas turns a bunch of the Hobgoblins, which are in fact Undead! 5 of them are turned.

Fandillas does 13 damage with his Ring of Shocking Grasp!

Jacob did 9 and 10 damage respectively and Thorgard did 9 damage to the Undead Hobgoblins. Fandillas is down one Mirror Image and takes 7 damage. The Hobgoblins have a 5/5 AC. The party destroys 3 of them!

2 of the Hobgoblins get away as Jacob kills another one. Fandillas casts Magic Missile and does 6 damage. Sarkas does 3 damage. Fandillas then shocks one for 12 damage and kills it!

Jacob kills the last one! Actually, Jacob does not kill one but instead the Shocking Grasp kills the last one.

There is a decent chance that Oriyan and others were eaten by the Green Dragon. As suspected, we find that Oriyan and the other have been eaten. However, Tharen's body is whole and actually…so is Oriyan's! At least, they are intact enough to be raised from the dead.

We begin harvesting claws, blood, muscle tissue, and bones, along with any other suitable components like the brain!

Thorgard gets back his Ring of Fire Resistance.

• 26,400 ep
• 42 gems
• 11 jewelry
• Thorgards Ring

Tatrin casts Detect Magic but there is no other magic present. Maervahr carries 20 pounds of Dragon parts with him.

We determine that 7,138 ep can be carried out with our group. The gems and jewelry will be split between Jacob and Maervahr to be carried as we head out.

We encounter a group of Hobgoblins and Wolves that have not quite fully covered the hallway. A total of 6 Hobgoblins and 2 Wolves are in front of a larger group, preparing to attack.

A Flaming Sphere spell is cast by Sarkas as Maervahr and Qipsil move to the side. A Hold Person spell is also cast and 4 of the Hobgoblins are now held.

• Maervahr casts Confusion.
• Qipsil guards Maervahr.

Jacob hits one Hobgoblin for 10 damage and kills it then 4 of them attack Jacob. They all need 20's to hit him due to his -5 AC. Thorgard is hit on an 18 and one Hobgoblin hit. His Stoneskin is spent!

One Hobgoblin takes 4 damage from a Magic Missile. 3 more Hobgoblins are held.

The Confusion goes off and 16 Hobgoblins are now confused. They do 6 damage to Sarkas…SCRATCH THAT, they deal no damage but Sarkas is now in melee.

Thorgard hits one for 12 damage and kills one. The others kill two more of the Hobgoblins as they begin to flee the fight. The rolling Flaming Sphere fries 4 of the Hobgoblins and then the Sphere is gone.

Thorgard and Fandillas deal 8 damage each. Jacob does 17 damage as Josalyn deals 2 damage.

• Jacob hits one for 13 damage.
• Fandilas hits for 14 damage.
• Josalyn deals 7 damage.

Meanwhile, one Hobgoblin wanders away and then dies. One attacks and misses Josalyn. Then, another one attacks Josalyn and she takes 5 damage. Josalyn casts Cure Light Wounds.

We dispatch the rest of the held Hobgoblins easily.

In total, we killed 26 Hobgoblins along with 6 Leaders from their group.

We check the bodies of the fallen and find:

• 320 cp
• 189 gp

We grab the bodies of Oriyan and the other character, Tharen.

12,366 ep are collected from the horde.

As we begin heading out, we see that on the path below us is a strange floating sack moving along.

• Maervahr casts Lightning Bolt at the creature carrying off a sack.

The Sack explodes into a shower of coins as the back of the waterfall splits open and something falls below. The invisible creature fell 200' down into a pool as the Lightning Bolt destroyed it.

ALL THE PLATINUM COINS WERE DESTROYED!

Jacob spots a blood trail as something floating down from the pool. While flying on his Hippogriff, he picks up the creature.

We head back to the Wistari Village.

The Invisibility on the creature is dispelled by Fandillas and this reveals a Witch Doctor carrying a scroll case. We check to see if it is destroyed. We find that the Scrolls inside are also destroyed.

Maervahr uses his Detection of Magic on all the items we gathered but there is no magic.

We make it back the village without issue!
