Stonehell B Team: Fried Fairies with a side of Mushrooms

Session 311 was played on 11/30/25

Sonara, Wizard (Rob)
Adorellen, Elf (Me)
Glimmer, Kobold (Lanse)
Kessaren, Cleric  (Cindy)
Loahn, Halfling  (Josh)
4 Kobold meatshields (iGor, Blar, 3, 6)
KARL! Dwarf 9 (Julia)

Departing the water weird’s room, the party double checks their map, and decides they’re going to firebomb the portal chamber. Karl passes a Natebalm to Loahn and Adorellen and Sonra prep their fireballs. They head around to the door they think separates them from the portal…. Glimmer throws open the door, and bottles are tossed, spells are cast, and the door is slammed shut behind them. The concussive “woomph” and the smell of flash burned flesh and mushrooms is disturbingly savory. 

The party stands ready for something to come for them through the door… but aside from the sound of something burning, popping, and crumbing, the hall is silent. They crack open the door and look inside. Black thick smoke hot and reeking of burnt flesh billows out. Within the once grand hall lush with fungal growth is now a charred ruin. Small areas still flicker with dying flames. The party steps in and begins to poke around at the larger piles, finding the remains of numerous pixies among the char. Then they begin to hear some rumbling…

The sound comes from the north, and they look out the hall to see what it is. They see rocks of a variety of sizes from as small as a fist to ones as big as beach balls rolling down the hall in their direction. Then they hear the voices all rumbling an overlapping “excuse me” “coming through” “make way” “watch your toes” “on your left” “make a hole” “on your right”

The party wisely hurries away from the crushing rolling of the rocks, and goes out a side corridor to avoid them. After the rocks rumble by they check their map for likely locations for action and treasure when a ringing in the background finally gets loud enough to be noticed… like the tinking of 1,000 needles. Karl’s eyes get very big, and he demands the party leave immediately. They take the fastest route from the dungeon, and head back to Morgana’s.
