## Mission Notes

They arrived at the monastery via a combination of magic and creatures. They found a welcoming arch but with half the welcome eroded. They explored the gardens and found a monk gardener frozen in time.

Opening the main door they found a fountain of water that was frozen in time and various doors. They also found a shield blocking a door to the temple that required four parts to be added. These represented faith, protection, war and peace.

The kitchen had a frozen in time chef holding a pan which was now mould. The fire had burned out though The library had a librarian stuck in time. In the library Tas found a book on fly fishing that she borrowed and Sharian found a book that the cover said was an autobiography of Lord Beefington. This was an empty book but removing it opened a passage that contained a wooden block identical to one of the parts of the shield outside the temple. (Protection)

The forge revealed a sword that when removed had a wooden block resembling a sword. (War)

The dorms revealed a monk in bed apparently have been sick on the day but still frozen in time.

The training hall had various amulets on the wall. These helped with various skills if worn but one was non-magical. Picking this one up opened a secret panel to a wooden panel representing (Faith).

The final panel was in the lavatory which was revealed by sitting on the seat (Peace).

Assembling these in the shield opened the temple.

In the temple they found desks with various notes on them about time stopping spells and a young monk stood (and frozen in time) over a spell book. With a time frozen assembly of monks behind a magical portal. Sharian reversed this spell. The abbot collapsed on release but was taken to rest overnight. The young monk seemed apologetic for his misdeeds but wasn't immediately punished by the other monks but was responsible for the magical accident.

Some of the monks retired at this point but others taught Tas woodcarving skills and Sharian skills on the forge. Sharian also looked through some spell books to gain knowledge.

The next morning the monks put on a training session for the adventurers. These included basic sword skills, magical sword skills, blind fighting, dexterity checks, stillness as well as fighting and defending themselves and each other from attacks.

The training session was ended when the abbot seemed concerned about something on the grounds. The guild members found a jabberwock which was soon dispatched using their individual talents.

The abbot presented the adventurers with a Medal of the Monk apiece. This contained the four principles of the monastery. Peace, War, Faith and Protection.

The abbot asked Sharian to help dispose of a Red Wizard Blade too as it was something he felt uncomfortable having on the grounds.

The monks then put on a magic and swordfighting exhibition for the guild members.
