Session 2
General Summary
The party were led to the mines where the villagers said the plague originated. They entered in, to
find the place showed signs of a scuffle. Investigating further they encountered a small enclave of
kobolds led by some sort of kobold mage. They fought the kobolds until the humanoids were
nearly all killed and the remainder fled. They continued to explore the mine in search of whatever
was polluting the village water supply.
Soon they came to cave full of rotting bodies. Crossing it,
some of the dead arose! They were swiftly defeated. Moving deeper into the mine they came
across a huge cavern with a pillar of rock rising out of a pool. Atop this pillar was an Orc shaman,
of the Goblinsplitter Tribe. He brought down a mighty globe of darkness about him as the heroes
charged and a huge fight ensued, ending when Tor took the Orc's head from it's shoulders with his
great sword. At that time the curse was lifted and the waters ran clear once more. Returning to the
abbey the heroes discovered two of their number had caught the Burning Plague, but they were
swiftly healed by the resident knights. A few days later they returned to Castle de Belame with
Father Kieran.
With nothing to do the party departed for Thistledelve. A quiet journey later they arrvied in the
town. Here they encountered the mysterious Myrddin who warned Flek to cover his birthmark
tattoo. The next day Father Kieran turned up. He was looking for people to clear the ruined Old Church of Ashtar of Orc bandits. Our heroes of course agreed.
A quick jaunt down the King's Road North brought the party to Waymeet where they met the
druid Marik. From there they headed up river to the quiet hamlet of Ashtar. They settled into the Ashtar Inn and soon were approaching the ruins of the church. Orc sentries spotted our heroes approaching and let lose a dog that was instantly shot dead by Flek. But the alarm was raised. The
party reached the ruins to find a huge horde of Orc bandits preparing to come out and fight them.
The party took a tactical withdrawal, only just escaping, and planned their attack afresh...
