OOC: How long ago did we left from our camp ? It's to know if my buff are still active.

4 hours since the wurm fight

Xilef belives these creatures might be Satyr: tricky but rather peacefull fey who live in the forest.

-------------------------

2 of the creatures fall back inside the hut. One of them stays standing there and talks to you in common "The only thing to discuss if for you to leave now. never return here!"

shortly thereafeter, you hear a savage and beast-lke growl right from behind the hut. By the sound of the vegetation moving you might think that someting big, indeed, could be on his way. Your followers slowly back away.

----------- round 2----- all PCs may act/talk

(you can use the same map from before. the goat-folk in the middle is talking to you.)

[Crafty Cultist]

Korin tries to reason with the satyrs. "You have asked us to leave and we will leave, but might I ask you for directions through the forest first?"

Korin tries to motion to the others to move back.

[Beschoren]

The other two goatfolk suspiciouslook outside trought the hut's entrance. The one talking to you looks at you seriously, trying to understand your intentions

"Directions? away is away, and there you shou-"

at this point, a massive grey render comes rushing in from behind the hut. The goatfolk talking to you points at it and says quickly "No! stay!". The grey render looks confused, but then the goatfolk repeats more forcefully and the reature just stays there, at the side of the hut, emmiting a lowly growl and exchanging glaces between the goatfolk and your group.

The slaves nearly faint at the sight of such bestial creature, but you keep your nerve, if only a little surprised. The goatfolk looks back at you, intriged by your resolve "...what do you want? who are you?"

[Duncfoo]

When the colors starts flying Uidon quickly sketches a shield shape in the air and draws his own. His sword would be in his hand as well if the goat-men had not called off their beast.

Uidon follows Korin's lead, but feels he comes from a position of strength. "We mean you no trouble. We simply wish to make camp. Temporarily. Our reasons, the Slavers. They are our enemies. We are here to kill them."

The goatfolk are still warry of you, but calls one of the other inside and they quickly discuss something. He talks at you gesticulating slowly

"Go straight south from here, you will find a small spring. follow in downhill and you reach a very small pound. from there head west and you will find a stony area. You will dinf good spots to make camp there, and another water spring flows nearby as well"

he takes a pause to see your reaction and keeps talking. the second gotafolk comes outside and stays at his side.

"from there you can reach the human's large camp in about 3 hours to the east"

Then he moves closer to the grey render, that gets excited on reciving some attention.

"now begone. we don't like you so close to our home."

[Crafty Cultist]

Korin bows and motions to the others to move away. "Thank you for your assistance. We will try to avoid this place in the future, so that you might have some degree of peace."

[Beschoren]

Kanros recovers himself from the magical attack. The goatfolk just weaves his hands as if telling you to go. Seanon signals for the slaves and you all decide to leave

---------------------------

You spend the rest of the day walking in the forest. Thankfully, the creature's directions are true. you find the spring, the small pound, and the stony area.

You scout the location for a while and find a good spot for the camp: the larges clearing you could find so far, surroundedf by 3 very massive trees and a large rock, right at the side of a small spring. The roots and branches of the 3 massive trees make for excelent spots to sleep, sit and tie the warpings of your tents. You set a fireplace and start eating roasted meat in amounts you never belived possible. Seanon heals anyone wounded.

being quite tired from the long walk and seeting up the camp, and satified by the copious amount of food you just had, you prepare to rest.

-----------------------------


(What is the lookout order? you can just ask the followers to handle it. also, set your plans for the next day. teh slave camp is 3 hours east of your location)

[Beschoren]

Night passes by calmly... Until Uidon is on the second watch with other two slaves...

He sees a large shadow abruptly coming out of the ground, right next to your food suplies. He blinks his eyes in disbelif but sees that the... thing... is still there. It is as if earth itself created a large mouth that desperetely chews on the meat from the wurm you left to dry.

------------ round 1!----------- all PCs may act

The "thing" has some kind of neck attached to the earth and keeps chewing on your food, taking a very large portion of it to itself.

The followers that were awake look at that and scream "AAAAHHHHHH!!! A MONTER!!!!". They spend most of their turn shouting.

The noise and the screams are loud enought to wake up eveyone in camp

Xilef can see that the monster is actually some kind of root. Animated, sentient, and very meat-hungry, large, root called borrow root. The wounds it inflects will continue to cause damage, it borrows in the ground and when severely wounded it may split in two.

Kanros set himself for combat and innitiates a magical song
Uidon's challange fails to work. The monster is too primitive to understant the challage that has just been proposed to it.

The Root-monster senses the turmoil it has just caused and rushes to the offensive. it fully emerges from the ground, and moves much like a clumsy but fast snake. Still having large amounts of wurm maat on it's mouth, it attemps to bite off Uidon's head

Seanon

The sorcerer sees the root being hit by Korin's firebolt and lunches some arcane fire of his own. He casts magic missle at the seriously damaged root, but it evades Seanon's attack by quickly borrowing and reapearing farther away

Xileft chases the root, who dosen't have time to borrow again. After her attacks, the root falls down, torn apart.

When Uidon charges, the creature notices and borrows imediatly, avoiding both attacks. it comes to surface again, right next to Korin. (this form of movement does not provoke AoOs)

The badly damaged creature bites Korin (1d20+11)[29], damage (2d6+22)[32]
