Leaving Hammergrim

Fuelwen': The portals from Hammergrim were arranged like some kind of shipping port, with tepid and useless guards securing it. We entered the portal to Nishrek, although there were other portals to other planes, including Sekolahs home plane. I was tempted, but even with my skills, I know it would be an unwise extension to our adventures. For now, anyway.

We'll be back.

Nishrek

Fuelwen: Honestly, I was disappointed. The "Battle" Cube is more like the "meandering war bands with no purpose or organization cube". Still, it was refreshing to test my hand at mass slaughter, and was there massive slaughter. Bo suggested interrogating some of the goblins, so we captured a small party. I chose to spare one, which I called my slave and named Hand. My hope was to keep it as a living trophy of my visit to the Battle Cube and an example of my conquest- defeating death itself, by dragging this goblin back from its afterlife.

Oh, I suppose it's worth documenting the purpose of the slaughter, which was not simply to prove our skills. It was a fine for visiting Nishrek without being Orcs. In any case, we fulfilled our fine and then some, while Hand devoured the rations in my pack.

Palace of Gruumsh

Fuelwen: The fine paid, we had three days to hunt up tell of Brilla's ancestor, and all clues pointed towards Gruumsh, one of the Orcish gods. We traveled to his temple, and found that his Proxy sat in its center. Brilla won an audience of 30 seconds with him. Brilla's question only took seconds, so I added my own: how to complete my quest. He had no answer to me, but helped Brilla with a painfully obvious suggestion: try to bind your ancestor.

Coexistant Planing

Surprise attack by: a skin feaster. (Brilla: 1 con drain, 2 con damage.) (The party managed to ID it enough such that you can feel okay looking at the entry for it. It's the advanced version.)
