The Farm

Ride out from the asylum at early dinnertime.

Dark clouds and wisps of mist.

High plateau on the left side and swamp to the right.

More fog.

Meet rider. Old farmer. "They ate the dogs!"

Ride on. Meet Madame Mvashti who sing a strange song. "Did you take care of him?" Doro "Who? Oh. Yes him. Yes." "There's more trouble ahead."

She gave us an item. Doro took it.

Arrive at bridge over ???

Peasants stand guard. "It's dangerous on the other side." "We will take care of it." "We're sent by the sheriff." "Don't you recognize us? Were the heroes of Sandpoint! We are the ones who saved Sandpoint from all goblins from there to Fogscar mountains! We conquered Thistletop. We pacified five goblin tribes and slew their war chiefs!"

We left our horses in the care of Orik with the peasants. Dear Creampuff!

Darker sky, more fog.

A very worn down fence and gate. We close after us.

A shadow in the dense fog. It turned out to be a scarecrow.

Closing on another at crossroads Velicia said they show the way. I said they scare crows from the fields and Dorothea said "No. They are monsters." as it attacked.

Surprised, Velicia cast a spell. It charged with claws Honeypot who hit it back.

Nathaniel trick it and I fell it.

It turned out to be a farmer infected but not turned.

Nathaniel pick him up and carry him as we continue

Next crossroads a new scarecrow. We cautiously approach when several appear in the fog all around us, but the scarecrow is just a scarecrow.

There is a big fight against them. Velicia was clawed unconscious by an infected monstous farmer and nearly died but after hard fighting we at last stand as victors. There's a total of 15 infected farmers including the one we brought.

We decide to take a short rest, but before we could three more turned into full ghouls appeared out of a house just barely visible through the dense fog.

We kill two but the last one retreat and shout out "Alarm!"

We can hear four more leaving the house but loose them in the fog. We hide too and then fight.

Honeypot kills the last who was a ghoul leader of some kind.

He had better clothes than the rest wearing a livery He is groundskeeper of Foxglove manor Roger Krespie Key on a sting neck curious flowers and thorns... He also had item.

Nathaniel pet dog.

We enter farm. The peasant sacrificed with carved sevenpointed star hung on wall. I felt sick.

Look through hose. I look in other rooms. We find coin collection 34000 silver coins in neat packets of 100.

Honeypot left house and I count

She came back and shouted about others put up as scarecrows. Turned out to be two more that the infection didn't really stick to. Horran and Lettie Guffmin.

Velicia think we should stay and sleep. I shocked of awful thought.

Nightfall

We gather 15+2 infected and put on cart and wagon from farm. Very bad shape.

We gather and burn 3+3+boss

Nathaniel fetch Orik and horses.

We ride to sanatorium where help from Sandpoint has arrived.

We put 17 infected in their care.

It's late, but we return to Sandpoint.
