Episode 25: Slime Time

Current Party Members: Barkley, Godfrey, Lucius, Vahlka, Deacon, Kasun, Hamish, and Boris
* We proceed onward to Nexus Storm, a small waystation consisting of only a few essential buildings. Kasun sees about some business while everyone else goes to the bar.
* Vahlka and Godfrey order drinks; drinking ridiculously strong dwarven ale and hardly batting an eyelash at it.
* After speaking to the barkeeper we decide to take a look at the bounty board outside to see what's going one around the Nexus. There are wanted posters for Alythyss; a mindflayer exile, Deathcrawl; a rather gross looking green dragon, a Bear (no name given, Kasun's friend who went feral), and a poster requesting help finding Keani Willowwing's missing archaeology team.
* We head back into the bar and talk to Keani, who tells us that she was attacked by "big yellow things". Keani fled and was separated from the rest of her expedition. She says her guild will pay us 4000 gold for information on where they ended up or recovering them alive.
* After agreeing to look into the missing archaeologists, Godfrey decides he wants to talk to on of the Illithid inside the tavern. They treat him rather coldly but do tell him that Alythyss was recently spotted beyond Nexus Epsilon and that they'd pay a reward for her head.
* We spend the night at the tavern in the nexus and move on the following morning into the fungal forest downroad from Nexus Storm. Shortly after entering the forest we are attacked by several ochre jellies (yellow things!!!) and one black pudding who didn't appreciate an angry drow lady punching it ineffectually.
* After the fight we take a short rest, towards the end of it Hamish hears something up ahead and starts to wander off.
