Traveling the Milding

TskTsk: As we travel the Milding with Marenien the elderly elf, he discusses that there is a powerful cycloptic dragon far to the north. This interests me on two levels, first, we could get more information as dragons as renowned for being long-lived, and secondly, if he doesn't cooperate we could get practice in slaying a dragon.

Marenien also talked about the demon cataclysm that comes from across the ocean every thousand years or so. The recent attacks by devils don't count. I believe that Brilla is concerned that she was the one who released these devils. She's probably right.

Elk statue

TskTsk: Ahead of us is a salt plain surrounded by swamp and Marenien tells us that the entrance lies ahead. I sneak forward, invisible to the world in the shadows and discover an exquisitely crafted statue of an elk. After a moment of reflection I gasp at the realization that IT IS NO STATUE. Venturing closer to the entrance I hear clucking sounds and that means one thing—basilisks!

We fight the "domesticated" basilisks, which I'm told are actually cockatrices, who were apparently farmed by what we believe are goblins.

Watch your step, there is blood everywhere

TskTsk: Completely out of place, a giant door with celestian sigils fills the wall. Brilla strides to the front and completes the puzzle that Marenien is so proud that we solved, then BANG! The door opens without trouble. Inside is a room where the walls are bleeding and eight pools of blood have collected.

Brilla discovers that there are creatures in two of the pools and sneaks through to a pool that has a portal in it. Recklessly she dives inside.

We wait and she doesn't return soon enough so we rush in after her and end up fighting a Blood amniote and bloodmote cloud. The combat was tough but fortunately the monsters were dispatched before any of us died.
