Sabrina's journal and inner monologue - A Creature in the Fog II

26 Highsun

Finally going to cross something off my 'to do' list. The group assembled is different to the one I originally had planned on going on to find this 'Fog Monster". Good thing I didn't end up going. From what I heard, most of the party wound up dead and/or reincarnated *- no thankyou.*

The only one I recognised is **Tordak.** This kilt wearing, hairy, smelly Dwarf. Everyone else is a new face, including a goblin and a troll. *They'll let anything into Hope these days it seems.*

Our first day was mostly uneventful, unless you count finding a barrel of perfectly good water on the side of the road. Naturally I helped myself, so did the others. *It's not like anyone is going to miss it.*

That evening the Troll **Arnulf** told us that the temple we are headed is for the goddess he worships Kayassit. I've never heard of her. *Must be a pretty shit goddess if you only have one troll worshipping you.* There was also talk of black Ooze at this temple. Sadly ooze was something I already failed to avoid on this adventure; as I had to kick **Burglekutt,** our gelatinous blob of a wizard out of my tent that evening. He left this awful stink in there too. *What the hells was he doing?*

That wasn't all that happened that evening. We were attacked by these feral undead creatures. As much as I enjoy the company of a fellow sorcerer, this goblin **Eborra** seems a bit on the frail side and needed assisting. *Go back to Hope you'll live longer.*

**Kronk** also picked up some horrible disease from one of the fucking things. He better not be a burden to us for the rest of the trip, not matter how gloriously luscious his mane is.

No wonder why were were attacked by zombies last night. We were camped not far from a necromancers cave. *The navigator finally knows were they are going but it also happens to take us on the route filled with the most danger. Great job you incompetent turd.*

We also happened across the cave were they killed Ragemaws favourite Goblin *(again - fucking idiots).* Made sense to grab the goblins ears from the corpses. My as well make some money out of this trip. *Gods **Eborra** was SOO precious about it all.*

The evening was uneventful aside from Kronk looking more decrepit. I also had nights watch on my own AGAIN. Seriously it's like no one has a sense of good company around here. I was bored out of my mind for most of the night.

We made it to the temple around dusk. The original members of this expedition told us that our shadows will attack if we get too close to the temple entrance. And that there is a magical lock as well.  Good to know but still not overly helpful - *but hey, they try their best.*

Slowly approaching I saw a spire with concentrated fog coming out. Best find a way to plug that. There also copious amounts ooze everywhere. *I'm surprised **Burglekutt** didn't feel right at home.* Right on que our shadows lashed out at us. A difficult battle - for some of us at least. These apparitions suck the strength right out of you! **Tordak** went from cube to stick in the blink of an eye - *he never looked better to be honest.* The human Constance held her own, but she seems to cut herself a lot. *Is she depressed of something - her problem I suppose. Just as long as she doesn't die from the blood loss mid battle. I don't give a rats ass.*

We finally made it into the temple. Inside there is a pool to this 'goddess' - *such bullshit, nothing happened! Well nothing important at least.*

After resting, we went into the temple proper. This place is filthy, ancient and obviously not safe, especially when **Arnluf** in all of his wisdom woke up a giant Ooze! On to top of fighting a ooze, swarms of rats came and attacked **Tordak** and **Constance.** By some miracle we all lived, although **Burglekutt** and **Kronk** are heading back to Hope. **Kronk** wasn't looking too great when he left, I doubt he'll make it back alive.
