SESSION 202: Scrambled Eggs
There is no place like home. The run for the ferry, the convergence of holy powers and a return to hex clearing on the safer side of the Blood River. A chance encounter creates business.
Day 94 Clear (12.19-0504à12.20-0704): The night had been a catastrophe. Three hobos were brought low. Boris was brought back from the brink but Sasha and Dolec were not so lucky. They were now cold and most certainly deceased. The real dead were bagged and the mostly (Boris) and nearly (Sloth) dead were affixed to stretchers and the gang made a run for the Gormandia ferry.
Travellers fortune. The forest held its breath this morning as all creatures could sense that something had happened the previous evening but the outcome was currently unknown. It was safer to lay low until the carrion crows report. Our gang used this opportunity and ran, as best they could. They made it back to the ferry.
Day 95 - 98 Mixed (12.20-0704): Four days were spent rallying the forces and putting the injured to bed and the dead on ice. Sloth’s recovery time had taken a serious setback and would be bedridden for longer than originally expected. Carla was sent for and Bimbles dug out his holy jump suit, they would be calling down direct links with their deities to bring life back to the mutilated corpses of Sasha and Dolec. A few days later upon makeshift altars the two high clerics instilled the bodies with radiant light. Their systems were able to handle the shock of being ripped back from the afterlife. They were breathing and hemorrhaging as their bodies were still broken. One cannot heal a body which is dead. The clerics and their assistants leapt to immediate action applying ointments and salves along with healing magic. Dolec and Sasha would recover in time but would forever be a little weaker (Day 97). Now exhausted the two high clerics also rested for a day.
Day 99 Clear (12.20-07.04à12.19/0608/0707/0607/0706/0806): The away team was once more reconfigured to account for the stoned, injured and required oversight of construction operations. After which it was right back to clearing the adjacent lands of monsters. It seems that with the defeat of Dread Ethel the wilds were quiet beyond the occasional call of a raven and the passing of deer. They did have an unexpected encounter. Belzonock a merchant trading ‘high quality household goods’, “because that is what folks need in the wilderness to be civilized folk”. He drove a horse drawn covered wagon escorted by two knights. The gang joined him at his fire for repast and Belzonock’s sales pitch. He was traveling SW looking for lost trade routes and forgotten communities. Our gang looked at his wares and it was decided that he could be a useful asset in the building of the MuderHobo empire. They committed to buying all his wares and put him on retainer with the goal of having Belzonock establishing a trade network. All parties were happy and the deal was sealed. The next morning they gave the merchant directions to the Greenland. The two groups parted. Back to work.
Day 100 Clear (12.19-0806/0705/0606/0605/0704/0708/0704): A whole bunch of hex clearing with nary an obstacle.

Join us for session Two-Hundred-and-Three when we ask the questions:
Did we defeat the forces of the wicked hag?
How the heck does this Belzonock guy survive with only two guards in the wilds?
Can the merchant be the first piece in establishing a trade route?
Tale of the Tape
· Camillus, Bob, Charles and Felix continue to be lawn ornaments for the Basilisk Knights.
· Carla is overseeing the construction (along with Brett & Germaine) at Greenland
· Bimbles, Rhagnar and Gurn have returned to Liwil to consult with Ding-We regarding the giants.
· The now Lordly Steve, along with Bunny and Saffron, is overseeing construction at the Gormandia ferry. At least that is what the foreman tells him.
· Ding-We and the other nerds enter a second round of furiously brewing enough potions to resolve the above problem.
