The Storm King's Thunder (Dublin, Ireland)

After watching Dunbarr run into the cave, Dipple hears the shout of Bree-Yark! He decides it’s probably best to back up Dunbarr and follows him into the cave. Noticing some goblins, he summons up a sphere of fire but then realizes that he has alerted all the monsters to his presence. Feeling the pressure of the situation he loses control of his sphere of fire and it fizzles out on him. Suddenly from the shadows, an arrow goes flying into one of the goblins, killing him on the spot! Dunbarr, looking back, only sees Dipple. Was that you? Dipple hesitates for a moment and then says yes. Back in the cave where the slime was, Bearnabus heals Graupel after her mid-fight snack went awry. She then immediately transforms herself into a bear and squeezes herself down the narrow cave passage, stopping at one of the cubbies to allow people to pass. Graupel follows the same cave passage and meets up with Dipple and Dunbarr. Just as she arrives, she sees Dunbarr running at one of the ogres, he’s g...

Having found the cave and learning what was in it, Grauple decided to look for another entrance. While trying to explore the cave entrance, Kin drops his collection of bells and plates which alerts the Goblins and Ogres so the team retreats . Grauple returns with news of two tunnels, one with goblin footprints and the other looking empty . The team takes the empty looking tunnel but Dipple and Bearnabus still manage to fall down the tunnel taking damage . At the bottom of the tunnel, the team finds a rock with black goop in it.

The team collectively shrug and continue on with their lives, confident in the knowledge that it wouldn't come back to bite them in the ass at all . After walking down the tunnel and discovering a small waterfall, the large black acid goo follows them into the room trapping them there . The irony of the situation is not lost on them. The team begins to attack the goop but does minimal damage. With ...

We return to the party in NightStone.  The party regroups and chats about how to move forward.  Many of the gang need sleep.  Graupel decides to take a long rest outside the keep with her trusty steed in a small makeshift camp. Bearnabus enters the keep and travels upwards, looking for Lady Nandor’s bedroom. Dunbar senses the genius in this idea and follows Bearnubus in search of an actual bed.  They come upon a room with a large bed. There’s a chest by the bed, wolf rugs on the floor and a long sword hanging above the door. The pair investigate the chest. Dunbarr, having been stung by many haunted chests before, readies his axe.  A voice from the clouds calls ‘Roll initiative’ They hear a noise from behind them. The longsword flies off the wall and tries to attack them. A scuffle ensues. Bearnabus effectively attacks the longsword with a flame blade while Dunbarr makes the unusual decision to smash the chest.  They hear the noise of the keep guards ap...
