The head lying on the rock slowly rises up, and within moments, a huge multi-headed beast emerges from the water. "One, two...Six heads! Careful! That must be a hydra!" says Drusinna as one of the creature's many heads quickly strikes toward the disturbance in the water.

Brian Skies Posted September 6, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted September 6, 2023 The adventurers wait for Sithi to lure the hydra away from the causeway. When they feel the hydra has reached a sufficient distance, Ferron commands the others to make a break for it, causing his horse to sprint at a full gallop with the others following close behind. The hydra immediately notices the adventurers and turns toward the causeway. It manages to climb onto the bridge, but it is too late. The hydra is last seen slinking back into the river as the adventurers disappear back into the forest. Each character receives 375 XP. In the late afternoon, looming out of the shadowy woods ahead is a haunting sight - a ruined keep. The old castle sits on a small rocky hillock, and you can catch glimpses of a broken tower between the trees. A moss-covered stone at the side of the road you're following marks a footpath that looks like it leads up to the keep. Drusinna and Jorr examine the overgrown track. According to them, numerous medium-sized humanoids and several large wolves - likely worgs - have been using this track recently. The keep is a 5-minute hike up this path, or a 20-minute scramble up the forested hillside if the adventurers choose to avoid it.

"So long as the horses can manage it, let's stay out of the open. We should wait for dark, or at least for nightfall. Maybe find a good hiding spot with a good view of the trail, to keep track of those coming and going. --How many soldiers, would you guess?" She asks the trackers, hoping to get a sense of just how suicidal this mission might be.

raxivort Posted September 9, 2023 Clone Share Posted September 9, 2023 (edited) "I'm not sure waiting for dark will give us any advantage. Hobgoblins see as well in the dark as I do and better than a some of you. We're likely to be stumbling around in the dark unless we light a lantern, and that will make us easy to see. We should definitely use the daylight to scout about the keep and look for a clandestine way to enter, but I'd say we should make use of it no later than sunset," Ferron argues.

Brian Skies Posted September 11, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted September 11, 2023 Drusinna and Jorr examine the tracks some more, but frown to each other before Drusinna addresses Sithi. "It's hard to say. Most of the tracks are older than a week. The fresher ones...probably a pair of worgs, and at least two or more goblins or hobgoblins. But these tracks could just belong to a patrol. It's hard to say what numbers they could have in the fort, and if these belong to the same patrol or a few." "I have to agree with the orc as well," Jorr interjects. "Goblins have the advantage in the dark, and bright light will only give away our position."
