Template:Rise of the Runelords chapter

We gathered around the fire giant and started discussing what to do with it. The others started talking about how fire giants had been the old servants of the gods and whatever. I just saw it was huge and strong. If we were going to free it I didn't want to be anywhere near. The others wanted to talk to it, but it talked giantish and I didn't know any other languages. Instead I stood back and looked at its reactions. Then at least I would know when to run. Honeypot started talking to it and I told the other using the telepathy that it was calming down at first. Honeypot told us over the telepathy that it hated Tirana who had captured it. She also said it told us not to go to the statues. I sensed that the giant was loosing it. I got angrier and angrier. Finally I shouted, "RUN!". We left in a hurry, Velicia pulling Honeypot and as soon as the door was shut we could hear the pillars crumble. It had pulled the chains so hard it got free.


Walk back through jelly room and I look for traps. Lots of them.

Continue through room with several

statues and a chaos gate. Hard to breathe

Through the next double door there was a corridor

To right there were several statues without mantles and with broken off arms or head of different humanoids

Looks like adventurers petrified. I had heard stories.

I pulled down my headband to cover my eyes

I went left and soon heard some strange scratching noise.

I returned and Velicia went out blindfolded and sword burst

She heard some voices.

It turned out to be 2 bralanis eladrins that Velicia had met before. Robur & Ribar. They were known for taking low risk employment mercenaries.

They had a cockatrice farm there and told us to go other way.

I sneaked ahead and saw cave with red dragons in lava pool.

Honey said there was something strange. might be illusion

I threw a stone and couldn't see anything wrong

I used my shadowflow armor and sneaked stealthily in the shadows to the next room.

Honey turned others to snakes and slithered after

I saw huge cave split by water with bridge. Magical barrier. three strange stones, three stone elementals on fire and a kobold.

I sneaked up to the bridge and hid next to the water.

A discussion started but I interrupted and a fight broke out. I tripped the cobold with a thrown dagger so he ended up near Velicia and one of the burning earth elementals stumbled into the water.

We destroy the elementals and Gloriana killed the kobold but new elementals appear out of the stones.

Honey does magic and shuts down the stones.

I wait for the others to do the same when Velicia suddenly attacks Honey, but misses. We fight new elemntals while Honey shuts down the stones.

Tirana ran up to the bridge so I moved in under it while she stood on top. Then I sprang from the shadows and stabbed her hard making her bleed profoundly and moved up behind her as Velicia slashed her with the black from the other side sword in a well timed move. We felt weakened by just being next to her, but Tirana fell to her knees and then on her face on the bridge and lay still while her ritual fell apart. The swords suddenly flew through the air in several directions. I'm not sure what happened but I thought that I might have been hit by a sword straight in my stomach but I soon realized I was laying on the floor and a sword next to me. As I picked it up it seemed to be invaluable. It had gold and jewels all over the handle and looked very expensive. Velicia had a slightly glowing sword, Gloriana the burning sword and Honeypot had a slender beautifully shaped sword.

We returned to the bank / temple of money and they don't ask for the sword back. They had lost the contract. We knew that the fine script would require us to give them all the swords and we said we had lost the contract too and that we had killed the thief. They were content. I quenched a feeling that I should request the 10000 gp we had been offered for the job and thought that that might risk keeping the swords that would be worth lots more.
