Events
After last session the PCs knew most of what the magic of the Six Sisters was, but they went to visit Rocktapus to be sure, finding out that she was still very sleepy. Berra was in a hurry, and so while Rocktapus mentioned a cave with moths, Mellia got persuaded not to stop there. The group went off to see the trolls to report a lack of food magic. (The GM kindly assumed NPCd Irillo would be certain we arrived with food gifts.)
In the end, because they had given the trolls food, and because there was also some information, they let the group deeper into their complex, under a serious guard. Varanis seemed to have some insight into what they were thinking – the rest of the adventurers didn’t.1Insight Troll, or Insight Human at -50: Their King was probably really embarrassed or pissed off that there had been a flaming troll, although he didn’t admit it. He nearly threw the lot of them out, then let them into the complex instead.
The group got delivered through a few different rooms, including what Varanis said was a trollkin nursery. It was a long walk and the architecture got more Mostali, and the group ended up a little way into the underground complex where the trolls do not go. They met a pit trap and four walking skeletons.
Then they talked about what the next move should be.
