Session was played on 1/22/23

Borumar, ½ Orc Fighter (Josh)
Blotto, Goblin (Lanse)

Aroon, Fighter 5 (NPC)
Jameth, Fighter 5 (NPC)

Wanting to avoid any more encounters with the bug people, the party heads down in the direction of where the Orcus priest was going/coming from. At the end of the passage was a door, and silence beyond. Borumar checks it and says it’s clear, and unlocks it. Beyond is a disused steeped welcoming hall.

Within the hall were three trolls! Angry trolls. Trolls big and mean enough to quickly drop both Borumar and Lt. Marthek. Blotto manages to hook one with his fishing pole(arm) but the troll just pulls Blotto in by the line and takes a bite out of him. Lor’Koth manages to take one out at the knees, while Aroon shoves his sword through the head of another, while Nick uses his spear to pin the 3rd down until everyone else could finish it off. Koltic was quick with the healing, and the oil to burn the bodies was applied almost as quickly.

Gathering the troll’s somewhat meager treasure (pocket change and a fancy necklace) the party makes for the surface and home.

Gains: necklace, and gold coins
Kills: 3 trolls
Losses:
