Realms S1E27 On the Run

After laying the dying to rest the party finds themselves faced with one burning question: How many secret passages can one Tavern have?

Player Characters Present
Jeidobii, Torq, Denahi, Burakubuu

Synopsis
Standing amidst the wreckage of their battle, the party surveys the room for anything of note or use. They discover Reeta has taken a fatal blow and the black infection is spreading quickly. They rush to her side to make her end as comfortable as possible, and she bequeaths them a ring, imploring that they take it to her brother, Remy, when they can. With that, she passes.

Heelya regains her composure and joins the heroes as they rest with Max. Torq and Burakubuu inspect the stage where Kayla the enchantress performed and discover a secret passage beneath, much to everyone’s surprise, even the innkeeper. They decide it best to rest and explore this new find in the morning. That night, each of them is haunted with visions of the past and of lost loved ones.

Rested, the party descends into the passage below the inn and find themselves in a long corridor that eventually burrows into the rock and dirt itself. There they are besieged by a swarm of poisonous, spider-like creatures and make a mad dash to escape, leaping blindly at the end of the passage into the rushing waters below. As they plummet over a waterfall, Buu grabs hold of Denahi and Torq, meaning to take the brunt of the fall for them and nearly dies.

Almost immediately they find themselves set upon by a simple but violent giant and his feral companion. It’s a tough battle but just as it seems the assailants may prevail, Denahi lays waste to them both simultaneously. Tired, bloodied, and lost, the party steels their resolve and march onward.
