Soot's Journal: Yeti Food

19th of Hammer, 1512 DR
 
We fight the Crag Cats, Dyleth is knocked unconcious but Electra revives him with a potion. I beat up one of the Crag Cats, killing it with my hammer, and my allies kill the other.
 
I pull the fang out of the mouth of the cat I kill, and find that the Crag Cat had a collar on. Garrett said it might have belonged to the Yetis on the mountain. I also notice that my druidic focus on the ground... It appears to have fallen out of my hammer... Very disappointing... I get really angry, but Luna calms me down and fixes it for me. I use the collar I found to ensure the focus does not fall out, by wrapping it around the hammer head.
 
After talking for a while, we begin travelling again to find the Garrett's missing friends. We make our way to the summit of Kelvin's Kairn and find a large cave opening with bloody tracks leading in. The Garrett told us this is where he was attacked by the Yetis.
 
We enter the cave and find bloody tracks. Luna and I split off from the group and go down a narrow passageway, leading to a 10 foot wall. We scale it, she makes it up first because she tries to pull me down, and when we reach the top we see that we are in the heart of the Yeti's lair. Inside is a Momma Yeti, her cub, and the halfling lady Perilou. Luna runs away, but I stay behind to try and safe her. I try to communicate and feed the Yeti with no luck.
 
I light some fire and scare the Yeti. We devise a plan to try and scare the Yeti out of the cave so that we can save the Perilou. However, it does not quite work how we plan, and instead the Yeti grabs Perilou and runs. But, our allies sneak up from behind and keep it from running. By putting away the fire, I convince it to give me Perilou, and I help her escape. At the entrance, the rest of the group informs us that the goliath died. I go to his body and light a torch to protect his bones, and take his great axe.
 
As we leave the cave, we see the Papa Yeti arriving home with a dead goat. It drops the goat, and immediately charges at me. Dyleth shot an arrow at the Yeti, piercing its side. Electra throws an icicle knife at it, but it seems unphased. Cinder and I simultaneously throw fire at the Yeti, and then I prepare my hammer so I can stand the line and protect my friends. The Yeti freezes my poor little Cinder, and then charges me, cutting into me with its claws and knocking me unconscious.
 
The next thing I know, I wake up on the ground with the Garrett pouring a potion down my throat, and my allies are attacking the Yeti. As I being to sit up, Electra throws a big bolt of fire at the Yeti and kills it. I cut out a fang of the Yeti after it dies, and it is a perfect fang.
 
We debate over whether to kill the other Yetis. I convince the people we saved, but no one in the group. We argue for a bit, but then head up to the peak of the mountain after sending the injured down the mountain. At the top of the mountain is a damage camp with blue leather boots sticking out of the snow. A tiefling sits alone in the snow, it is Astrix. We find that she is frozen and dead. Dyleth searches her tent and finds a magical glowing pink gem. I search her body and find potion of invisibility, and a blank piece of paper.
