Buggy buggers again

by Marya Silverstring

Sooo we get ready and get started
We have enough food, though can take extra rations
Also have shelter, though crowded
 
We have three ways to travel
Near the shore, which has pirates and stuff (normal 10 days per trip)
Near a magical tower, which has undead and possibly worse stuff (quicker)
Near the mountains (1 day slower)
 
We settle on the mountains, as there's less supernatural stuff
Soooo, travel day it is
 
The Cerberus Assembly people are surprisingly lax for soldiering types
Then after several hours there's a shout
No scouts are out
So none of our people
Ugh.....
Seb takes off
I go after him
The rest follows
 
And we find a rock with legs?
Okay no, it's one of the Cerberus people
Aaand bugs
We kill 2 of them
The rest flee
 
Aand there's the dude
We take the rock off between Virdan's summon and my frog strength
Him and a few others wanted to help the Lord dude
Rest of his friends hunkered down in a cave, around 20 minutes away in the hills
Seems like they don't know why the bugs are stirred up
They attacked their settlement
Bladefall seems disappointed in him
 
Then we go towards the cave
And he's with us
It's a rather small cave
Find ourselves bedrolls etc., but no people
Not much in terms tracks to follow
So I turn into cat
And start tracking
 
We find several corpses, including 4 of the flying creatures O.o
Also find some flesh from some weird creature
Get us to a cave and go out of wild shape
Go inside stealthily after casting barkskin on Seb
There's a biiiig green gemstone there
And there's scales as well
Ohhhhh well
Gemstone dragon it is
 
Aaand the dragon notices the group
