## Episode Summary

On the two week journey to Slithermourn, the group begin bonding with their new travelling companions. Fillius tells Myra the truth about her resurrection, and that it was not Silvanus who performed the miracle. Belrun shows the Halflings his Eukalala, but refuses to play it in fear of what might happen. Anmon and Aratal practice Quibbly Don Dibbly. As they approach the town, Lord Dell shares some history with the Heroes, so that they know what to expect. On arrival, they are met with the sounding of horns and battle within the walls.

Running through the gates, the group see several Giant Guinea Pigs killing and eating villagers. Realising that these animals do not respond to *Speaking with Animals*, they jump in to protect the village. As the Guinea Pigs are killed, they disappear in a puff of black mist, confirming that these are no ordinary creatures. During the battle, Iskander receives a mighty blow that sends one of his swords into the swamp. When their enemies have been defeated, he attempts to retrieve it, but is warned by a villager that the liquid is in fact acid and that the sword is lost.

As the villagers rejoice at being saved from the creatures, Aratal wonders what it was that they just fought…
