Time with the Blue Men of Carcosa (Session 88)

 SESSION 88: The above is no better than the below (10DEC18)

            Well, the morning would have arrived pleasantly in Overmind-731’s cylinder if Carla had not cursed the lot of us. Leaving the cylinder, we faced a blizzard of ominous proportions. We were going to go to the allied Blue-man village but elected just to run for the wastes and the lair of the Bone Sorcerer. The blizzard was an elder power manifested. It puked forth a horde of cannibals and a dread Gnoth-Keh. The battle was brutal and we realized that a safe port was critically needed, so we fell back to the Blue-man village. Strangely, our arrival seemed to be known. The Blue folk were welcoming but somewhat strange, as denoted by the absence of children in the village. Accommodation and food was provided all was well and recuperative. Well until the dinosaurs attacked during the second night. It seemed apparent that Carla was badda lucka so we hit the road the following morning – Bye! 

            We travelled on largely unmolested, Saph’s fingers get into the strangest places... There was a remenant serpent-person marker in a pond which housed a nigh invisible spawn of Shub-Niggurath. Then there was an ancient temple of serpent gods. After some investigation, we realized that screwing with anything was likely detrimental to our wellbeing, so we pressed on. Later that afternoon we reached the egress to the Forgotten Valley. As we worked our way up the rocky steppe to the pass (as we had been directed by the Blue-men). We settled down for an early camp when we noticed smoke rising up from the canopy below us.
