Pigs and Pumpkins Report

General Summary

Previously: Agatha, the Banshee of Neverwinter Wood
defeat one pig and two other pigs and the two anchorites flee in fear. The pumpkins are full of life energy, particularly the seeds. Tree in courtyard is a Gulthias tree, grows where blood has been spilt, and has blood for sap. It is evil and sprouts twig people who are evil and causes mischief, and creates a swarm when moon is red. It is not a living tree but is sentient. The first recorded Gulthias tree was born from the wooden stake used to kill a very powerful primal vampire, the earliest recorded 'sire' of any known vampire bloodline.
The orc performing the ritual is calling thunderpig Gorthok. It is a ritual that everyone is doing across the wood together. Around the room are plants some modified and in ritual circles. There are bits of animals, plants including chickenwort, which has a beak. When the spell backfires, the orcs from upstairs leave the house. Shifra is entranced by the tree in the courtyard. The orc conducting the spell is entangled. References 'Moesko' (of Talos, tharg's dad) who had acolytes. The main part of the spell was meant to be done at circle of thunder but this no more so was done in orc camps. There may have been bleed off energy when excess energy was released because we broke the spell early. He normally works on flying trees. The location is a centre of plant magic. Shifra finds an entrance to the well in the tree in the courtyards.
