Creatures of the Cave of Sorrow: Immeral's Report

-Before leaving town we asked about antivenom.  We discovered there is a blue spotted mushroom, often found in caves, that can be combined with lavender and basil to make an antivenom.

-Basil and lavender are abundant in the forests surrounding our encampment

-The Caves of Sorrow are located approximately a days march west of the camp.

-We heard wolves and bears on the way over

-On entering the cave we found the dead roper and Welkin's body.

-The roper's eye is gone, apparently a treat among the chitterers we were about to find.  It does not have a magical residue around the socket.  The roper smells like old balogna

-Welkin's body was found dessicated

-Above us is a massive series of webs, some of them are shaking, there's a breeze but some

The squid thing smells like old baloney

-I eldritch blasted a stalagmite and we heard some scittering about

-There's a body, died of bludgeoning/slashing

The body is a spider person

-Jeremiah explored, a chitterer showed up on the ceiling, we're fighting it

A second chitterer ambushed Jeremiah

-We killed the 2, they have sharpened human bone daggers

-Yellow goopy blood, I took some and put it in a vial, think like yellowish tapioca

-The chitterer dropped down from the ceiling.  This one is not like the others.  4 arms, 2 legs

-Spider thing speaks perfect undercommon:

Why are you hurting my babies?  We're just hungry.

-I tried to barter for our friends.  The spider accepted the deal, but was clearly just trying to mask a sucker punch
