Session X: The Hag Report

General Summary

Our group of heroes begin their quest for a cure for Medan's ailment. As for the deal they made with Kaltain they are to deal with the hag that resides in the Onirian forest and is running him out of business. They decide to split in groups for their nights rest. Kiber heads to The Harpy's Nest while the rest of the party lands themselves in The Drunken Giant.

In their respective taverns, Kiber talks to Jezabel, the owner and gathers some information on the behavior of the hag as well as discovering that there are three of them. Meanwhile the others find a drunken guy singing their praises. They decide to press him on this matter and discover that he made a deal with one of the hags in order to cure her ill daughter.

In a rather aggresive manner, they decide to guide the guy along with his daughter towardsd Kaltain's workshop so that he can examine him and the trinket the hag gave him. They find out that the doll given to him would slowly deteriorate their health and make them miserable. Kaltain fixes the problem and the issue is lain to rest.

The next day, they make way to the forest and following a set of giant tracks they find the hags' lair, a house with two huge chicken legs that allow it to roam through the forest. They were spotted by the hags' eye and invited to come in.

Once inside they were met by a green-skinned hag named Drenusha. She quickly guessed that the group had come to ask for a remedy to Medan's ailment. She offered them food and help which most of them refused, most except Medan. Succumbing to his hunger, he ate the pastries the hag offered and fell under her influence. She left to gather the cure promised to Medan and a second hag appeared. This one called herself Serafelle and offered to cure Medan quicker than her sister if he followed her.

After some discussion, Medan and Kiber gave in and decided to follow Serafelle. She guided them towards her laboratory where she charmed both of them. Then, the rest of the party came to the rescue. A fight ensued, amidst the bickering between Serafelle and Drenusha to see who laid claim to the targets, Malaveth and Genzaburo came in and confronted the hags.

They killed them both, but their other sister, Gru'nah, fled leaving an ominous note behind. Now with a possible grudge held against them, they proceeded to investigate the house. They found various wondrous items and fought against the redcaps that guarded the house.

After that, they delved deeper into the house and found a ritualistic looking room in which a blood-painted pentagram with three visible spots laid in wait. They foolishly decided to stand on the spots while covered in their own blood and something happened. Two large hands seemed to tear a hole in the fabric of reality opening up a portal from which a demonic figure resembling a large gorilla spawned.
