Session 11

·      Resting at the camp outside the mine, Sebastian sees a contingent coming towards him – including Conor Mcgreggor and his new friend Dench Mofacka.

·      When they arrived, Kudgral Runeheart told them that his scouts believe there are goblins in the woods watching the camp, which should be dealt with before entering the mine.

·      Sebastian, Conor, and Dench met up with Bildad & Moscow, 2 halfling scouts on ponies who scout for Kudgral, who informed them that there are goblins and wargs scouting the area. The lot set off following tracks, and were attacked by 3 goblins on wargs.

·      They bested their foes, and interrogated one into revealing the location of their camp. They then dismissed the halflings and dragged the goblin all the way to his camp, where they then slit his throat.

·      They saw a walled goblin encampment, and through stealthy investigation they learned that the camp was asleep and the creatures inside were very well supplied and organised.

·      Conor stealthily headed in, cut the only alarm bell he could see off of its stand, noticed the armoury, flammable oil, and curious dark powder. Sebastian was able to work out that this is a goblin powder used to turn structures/ vehicles invisible.

·      Conor snuck back in to the camp to the commander’s tent, and managed to assassinate the commander in one fell swoop. Dench headed in, and made the barrel of oil invisible. Doing do revealed a ram which has been invisible previously. He spread oil on the armour, on the commander’s tent, and on the ram – then sparked a blaze.

·      The camp quickly set alight, and the hungover goblins sprung to action. They piled out of their tents, wargs were released, and Conor, Dench, and Sebastian held the line taking them all on with the goblins having no access to their arms, they couldn’t stand the might of our heroes.

·      The battle looked like it could be a close call – a few times – but or brave heroes held their ground. Sebastian made it up a tree, and was chased by wargs. Barrels exploded, rocking ths camp, and fire spread quickly – but despite overwhelming odds, the 3 heroes managed to hold their own and defeat the entire camp.

·      The team ran off towards the forest, and behind them more explosions could be heard as the fire continued to spread. Through the camp.

·      They finally headed back to their own camp, and Kudgral told them that they’d almost uncovered the riddle protecting the seal of the mine. They then rested until midday, while Sebastian understood his drum better and Conor meditated.
