Session 8: The Legend of the Yeren Report

General Summary

Recently in Dewbreak, there have been stories of the legendary Yerens. A Yerens is a giant man like beast that is believed to live in the woods around here and take children away. People have been reporting missing piglets and seeing strange eyes in the night. Also 3 weeks ago a person from the town had gone missing. His name is Xaden Riorson. His wife hired us to go find him. She told us he had been on a hunting expedition recently but should have been back weeks ago. We asked around town about the missing man and about the sightings of the Yerens. After talking to a few people we went off into the woods to go looking for both of them. At the end of the first day in the woods, we meet a satyr that we shared our dinner with. After I offered him some food, he removed his backpack to revile it turned into a portable tavern with a wooden barmaid. We had many great games and drinks there for free. We even made a little money off of one of the games we played. But sadly, he had to leave for the night and we rested safely. The next day we meet some local halfings that had also been looking for Xaden. We wanted to exchange information but they did not want to and a fight broke out. It was one of the easiest fights I have been in and we got the information that we needed from the about the lay out of the forest and some please to look at. So we started to explore 5 of the local caves that showed promise. The first was empty. The second had a lot of spiders and 4 giant spiders. We quickly cleaned up that miss. The third was a dire wolf den but no one was home. The fourth cave and found a beer den. We saw two cubs and we tried to walk away slowly but they cried out and the mother arrived. It was hard to do but we had to subdue the mother long enough for us to get away. In one of those caves we saw recent paintings that made us think that the Yerens was really Xaden transformed. Went we got to the fifth cave we entered carefully and said we might need to subdue the Yeren in case it was Xaden. We found the bones of the piglets and Nomag found the Yerens. We all got images in our mind that showed us it really was the person we were looking for. It attacked and we were not ready for what was about to happen. This must have been one of the strongest creatures I have ever seen because with one motion, it pulled off Nomag’s arm and hit him with it. I was afraid my friend was going to die right there. We held nothing back but it quickly surrendered to us. I healed Nomag as best as I could so that he would no bleed to death. It once again showed us images and drew in the dirt. It told us to take it to a warlock in Zamova and that he could remove a cursed mask that he had one. That night, one of our group created a temporary prosthetic arm for Nomag to use. We quickly headed toward that warlock in Zamova. As we traveled, we ran into the dire wolves whose den we saw just the other day. It was another quick but hard felt fight. We got to Zamova and talked to the warlock that offered use money to remove the cursed mask if he could keep it. I was not the most trusting of this fact but I was looking around his store and found a dragon medallion. I had been doing my spell resource and knew I needed something like that for a spell I wanted to learn soon so we made another deal with the warlock for it medallion. He agreed and after some money was exchanged, he gave me the medallion and removed the mask. After it came off, it was found that yes Xaden had been changed into the Yerens. We took him home and his wife told him and us that she was expecting and we ended up letting her keep the money she offered us. We returned to town and rested. Last I heard, Nomag is going to Isondale to get a permanent prosthetic arm.
