Night 12: The Sea of Dust
Jurz and Dregz turn their attention to the unexpected arrival of Raven behind them. They question her about Grakk the minotaur and how and why she is now here, but she seems even more confused than they are. The last she remembers was dreaming of this group here in the ruins in a desert of ash, then she woke up here and came quickly down to join them.
Meanwhile, Bully swings into action with his goose-hook to finish off the second violet fungus(v2), Moffa fries the shrieker (s2) behind it with another scorching ray from her wand and Minmorc shrugs off the effects of the violet fungus’s attack to leap in at hack apart the other shrieker (s1) with his greataxe. Moffa’s fried mushroom is still shrieking (although it now sounds more like a punctured gas bag) so Riza leaps in to finish it off with her spear.
Finally there is silence, broken only by the excited chatter of Team Arda-Nuff speculating on whether the magic stick was responsible for Raven’s sudden arrival and other, more important topics like the best recipe for Scream of Mushroom Soup.

Everyone has the benefits of a Bless spell previously cast by Minmorc (+1 to hit and +1 on saves vs fear) for 13 more rounds.
