The corpse sits up and says, “Oh god, this thing stinks!

| - | We all eat fishysoisse with fennel, which tastes a bit watery, mashed squash, cider and a bit of fruit pie. Yelprik uses the mending cantrip to take four 50-foot pieces of rope and make them into one 200-foot piece. We pack up, loot the cultists and head toward the Temple. We got 3 cultists’ robes (having abandoned the one in the circle), 1500 copper pieces and 20 electrum, which all went in the bank of Yelprik. | + | We all eat fishysoisse with fennel, which tastes a bit watery, mashed squash, cider and a bit of fruit pie.

| Rash dashes past one of the slowed tigers (which can’t get an attack of opportunity against her because its swipe is too slow) to the one Owlfonso found at the far edge of this plateau. It’s also moving slowly. Rash hits it with repulsion breath. The tiger teeters on the edge of the cliff, scrabbling with its claws. It just barely manages to hold on. Rash chucks a hand axe at it, but the axe hits the big rock behind the tiger and lands next to it. | Rash dashes past one of the slowed tigers (which can’t get an attack of opportunity against her because its swipe is too slow) to the one Owlfonso found at the far edge of this plateau.

| One more day of travel, no interruptions. As it’s starting to get dark, we look up a rise that has cliffs dropping off to each side and, at the top, the ruins of a temple. We can see where the road used to go up the side of the hill. When we get a bit closer (at most a kilometer away), we suddenly see a light streaming from the Temple to the sky. | One more day of travel, no interruptions.

| Mirya and Idadrey reconnoiter. They sneak up beside the road and get up to the top of the hill without getting attacked. They find old crumbling walls with shrubbery growing up through the walls. As they get closer, they can see through cracks in the walls, as well as windows. They see a big magical ritual circle with all sorts of glyphs and mystic doodads generating the big magic stream into the sky. | Mirya and Idadrey reconnoiter.
