Session 6

2025-09-19

We enter the double doors on the right, and surprise the men we had heard. All 6 are dispatched quickly without landing a single blow on any of the party. We enter an adjacent room and in a reversal of roles are surprised to find another group of five men sitting around a table. They last scarcely longer than the first 6. The room also contains several sacks of grain, 80 stone each. Suspecting them to be members of the Drusus gang, we decapitate them. Taliesin dumps out one of the bags of rice so we can use the bag to carry the heads. We loot the bodies and find:

  • 82 SP 16SP ()
  • 110 XP 22 XP ea Killing Drusus' gang

We explore a little further and find Drusus, casually sitting on a chair. He offers to hire us to replace the "disorganized band" we just dispatched. Aurelia briefly entertains his offer before Titania and Uthman charge forward and kill him before he can rise from his chair. On his body we find:

  • Straight Oren cavalry sword with inscription: More Surusan - Death to Sorcerers
  • Magic Chainmail
  • Key to a nearby Locked Chest w/ 250 GP (50GP ea)
  • 500 EP (50GP ea)
  • Trinket of Shells 150GP (30GP ea)
  • 6x Glass Prisms 300GP (50GP ea)
  • Bone Case containing a scroll ward against elementals
  • 80 XP 16 XP ea Killing Drusus
  • 959XP 191 XP ea Gold from Corrupted Dome

Behind his chair is a door which has been spiked and boarded off. We decide not to open it. We leave and get to the edge of the forest before making camp.
