SESSION 42 – July 8, 2018

The battle continues…

We manage to deal with the goblins and wolves on the balcony passageway.

Batukhan got to the room the orcs feared, and saw a relatively fresh body (the friendly wizard with the ring?). Ignoring the body he opened the barred doors to the “control room” that is the source of the iron golems that appeared once a brazier was extinguished. Further, there were two groups of six stone bulls, each group of 6 controlled by a glass orb that is part of a pedastal. Batukhan touched the orb and directed the 1st group to attack. He then directed teh second group to go after the Seer.

Urman and Otiben went to the far end of the balcony hallway where Urman had tied a rope and climbed down to get closer. Urman got in position behind a massive pillar and was ready to do something, but the Seer moved in response to attacks by bulls, and took flight.

Otiben jumped on one of the bulls and was able to attack and wound the Seer. The seer rose higher and out of any melee range.

Those still on the balcony continued to deal with the wolves.

Once the wolves were dealt with, Puk and Ygtitte took up positions behind pillars to guard the nearest brazier. Archers dropped Ygritte. Zho Ni and Embrek went to the rope to climb down.

Urman charged into the middle of a group of Ogres and goblins that were the Seer’s honor guard. He blared away on the Horn of Fear, and most fled. This led to the Seer fleeing and yelling for her minions to continue their efforts to be “rewarded by The Enchantress.” Upon seeing her flee, in addition to so many of the other flee from the Horn of Fear, many failed their morale.

Urman was grappled by an ogre, but Otiben rescued him.

Urman used the Horn of Fear multiple times to further reduce the odds.

Zho Ni dispelled some sort of elemental that managed to drop one of the golems right before the elemental was dispelled.

Finally, between the remaining stone bulls, iron golem, and 10 orcs who can running when Gunnar went for help arrived and came down the rope and were able to help Zho Ni and Embrek and Otiben finish off the ogres on the brazier where the elemental had finished off the golem.

Batukhan rushed back and gave the stone bulls direction before they could attack the party.

All enemies were dead or fled. Urman looked at one of the braziers where its golem had been defeated, and the symbols indicate binding and protection, facing into the circle towards the colossus. The crumbled braziers faded. Perhaps they will be renewed and return to do their job.

The doors where the Ogres entered were shut and barred from the inside. the doors the goblins used to get up on the balcony where shut and barred. We are now keeping an eye out for the ogres and goblins that ran towards the caves of the orcs, and are gathering the items on the dead shamen. Urman will collect trophies from each, such as necklaces and rattles, and any other sign of their office. Any thing we can use to rest and heal, we will.

We will retrieve the wounded Ygtitte, and Urman’s bodyguards, all felled by arrows. Grik bled out, but was not to be trusted, as he was a true believer.

We will resume our quest with the aftermath of the battle.
