After spending a week in Tangaroa, the group is fully healed and they head out. Alzar has the Sea Ghost take them to the right peninsula to drop them off and explore.

On the way, they pass some broad coral reefs. Carum mentions there are lots of large oysters here underwater. Alzar orders the Sea Ghost to stop and Carum uses Deep Diving. He finds 9 large pearls, each worth 100 gp over the day. However, some sea snakes attacked and Alzar Blastbones and killed them.

XP – 50 for Alzar

That was fun. They continue on to the peninsula the next day. An investigation in this mountainous region results is finding this weird statue at the top of a peak. As they move towards it, it animates and shrieks loudly and flies down to attack. They hear other gargoyles answer it.

Alzar Ray of Enfeeblement’s it. It makes the save. Battle ensues. Alzar swings a staff for a miss. Both Est and Ale miss. Carum’s dagger bites into it for 2 damage. It crits Est for 6, and then Alzar takes a miss, despite a high die roll – cloak.

32/38


Alzar hits for 7. Est misses , Ale hits for 10 and Carum crits for 5. The gargoyle dies and two more have arrived.

Alzar misses, Est crits one for 19. RAR! Ale hits for 5. Carum just misses. One hits Ale for 3, Carum for 1, and the other hits Ale for 5.

28/34
38/39

The gargoyles hit first. Alzar takes 3, Est takes 7, Car takes 3

48/51
25/38
35/39

Alzar nails the wounded gargie for 3. It dies. The others all hit and deal 19 damage with two swords and a dagger. The next round, it moves to fly away. Alzar tosses a dagger at it and nails it in the wing for 7. It falls and dies.

XP - 315 each


He has Megala and Dryshik scout around. They were all close, so perhaps their nest is nearby. They find it, but it can’t be reached from the ground. In the nest is a giant ruby and scroll. They are brought back down:

Protection from Elementals Scroll
600 gp Ruby
