Bulls of Steel

Placidia, Irarath, Fayeth, Farrow, Gideon, and I took upon ourselves to accept a bounty for culling the overpopulation of Gorgons. Upon corresponding at Deus-dún, the party was directed to head to the forest southwest in hopes of thinning the herd and hunting an elusive Gilded Gorgon. Following tracks to what seemed like the Gorgons’ grazing grounds, a few of us took to the trees while the others drew them in. Lighting part of the forest ablaze, the battle grew intense. Upon Irarath being knocked unconscious, I took it upon myself to ride and disorient one causing chaos upon the herd. Successfully slaying the beasts, we took rest. While keeping watch, I caught a glimpse of the Gilded Gorgon in the distance and, after our rest, we tracked it, unwillingly encountering a group of Kuo Toa worshipping an obelisk. We made quick work of the structure while dodging the advancement of the Kuo Toa and its attacks, breaking the ranks of the small encampment, leading to them fleeing. We pressed on the Gilded Gorgon’s tracks to its nesting grounds. Many spells and close calls were cast and dealt with, eventually leading to the beheading of the creature by Irarath’s halberd. With the bounty successful we collected our rewards and headed home.
