Entry #18 Battle at jade totem
[Continuing our exploration of the ancient temple underneath Sokol Keep, we are in the midst of a battle with a Water Wierd and its summoned zombies, skeletons, and Sea Spawns!]
Odd misses his shot, Franklin shoots and hits. Draxon takes out a skeleton with a javelin. I run up and block/hold one of the doors, Jean Marie gets the other. A tentacle reaches through and grapples Jean Marie, biting him. I manage to hold the door shut. Odd hangs back, Franklin runs up and attacks. Draxon attacks the water weird, doing damage. I attempt to bewilder one of the sea spawn bt fail. Jean Marie pulls on the tentacle and pulls the creature through the door! Unfortunately, while he is pulling the creature manages to bite him. Odd & Franklin shoot and hit. I try to pick up Jean Marie's staff and hold the door shut, but I was apparently trying to do too much and it gave the Sea Spawn an opportunity to get through. Jean Marie takes out a Sea Spawn with his fists. And with my assistance, he manages to rip off a tentacle from another Sea Spawn. We attack again and it is barely standing. Through teamwork and coordinated attacks, we stop it from fleeing and Jean Marie finishes it off. Draxon, Odd, and Franklin destroy the water weird. After Draxon threw all of his weapns at the water weird, I go up to the pool and move the water to recover the weapons and also find some gold. Odd finds a wand (of detect magic) on Igan, as well as a medallion.
We move on down the hallway and run into Grim, with 4 other lackeys. It appears they were looting. After Odd or Franklin take out one of his lackeys with an arrow through the throat, we somehow manage to still parlay after I stabilize their fallen comrade. The spirit Harae said Grim is responsible for Igan's death (stabbed him with his dagger) and that is why the light was extinguished at the light house. Grim won't admit it. We need to know why he did ut. We do manage to convince Grim and his lackeys to carry out gold for us.
