Session 61: What do you take for crabs?
General Summary
The creatures swam toward the island. Mi'tsuru'gi and Fandle stayed on the boat while the other party members clambered onto the island in the middle of the cavern-lake. Aquatic ghasts leapt from the water to meet Jolee Bindo's fists, Rivine's axes and the missles of Mitsu and Fandle. In the middle of battle Brimble Knackles polymorphed into a giant crab and soon the undead were slain. Brimble-crab explored the cavern's depths and found the ghasts' lair full of coins and potions. Brimble-crab conintued his exploration while his companions counted the treasure. The crab was flung from one cavern by unstoppable fear -- something there had repelled him. But over the passing of the hour, Brimble-Crab explored other passages and streams until he arrived at a stone bridge. Here, he later brought the party.
When the party arrived at the bridge, Jolee and Rivine noticed the hideous gargoyle faces carved on the underside. Although all were wary, all passed with ease Over the river the party moved down a corridor to the right and, Jolee and Rivine leading, the two came to a room of sumptous pillows, cascading silks, wall tapestries of finest weave, chests, lamps, plates of pomegranates and baklava, carafes of sweet goat milk, and tender morsels of Turkish Delight. The duo were waited upon by a "little person" in pantaloons and turban, and he, Al Akhbar, entreated them to enter, partake of the most delicate repast, and find comfort with four maidens just entering from the ajoining room. Jolee and Rivine paused, they dittered, loitered, and hawed. Suddenly the little person wove an incantation in the air and the room was sealed by a Wall of Stone and he transformed into a Dao and the maidens became their true form, earth elementals. Outside, in the corridor, Fandle cast Stoneshape, carving a hole in the stone wall, allowing the rest of the party to enter the chamber and save the monk and barbarian from certain death. A battle of rocks, dust, and mineral battered the heroes, with Rivine brought towards death. Fandle's earth elemental form and the companions were able to defeat the elementals, with Brimble's knives of death destroying the Dao in the end. Once the enemy was dead, the luster of the room was lost and the party was surrouned by tired furnishing and old food. Not much reward, except that they now had a place to rest.
