Summary
The party, at the behest of Alrand Zauberberg (the governor's right hand), embarked on a teleportation-enabled trip around ~1000 miles north west into the steamy, yet to be named jungles of the new lands. It would appear that the town's latest expansion, supplied mostly by the means of occasional teleportation attempts was at risk of an otherwise unrecognizable threat, one powerful enough to chase away most of the local fauna (which included a number of beasts well-deserving their 'dire' prefix). Understandably so instead of having said threat come knocking on the outposts' gates Ravelgried had decided to act first.
After arriving on site the team sought to recover back their magics only to be ambushed by a pair of particularly robust hydras. The beasts not truly expecting much of a fight from few scrawny bite-sized dinner candidates couldn't dwell much on the error in the making as the party put their adversaries down with ruthless efficiency. Strangely enough the monsters had some peculiar objects embedded in their bones and shortly after their extraction the remains pretty much disintegrated in a blink of an eye - quite a peculiar development indeed.
The team, knowing better than to expect the 12-headed monstrosities to be capable of shielding the site from all forms of divination decided to explore only to quickly discover a cave filled with its own batch of... surprises, with one of those being another pack of oddly resilient ankhegs (similarly embedded with crystals), glowing fungi sustaining local flora as well as mysterious etchings written in giant...
Without a hint of a doubt this mysterious site has much more in store for our heroes(?) in the making... [to be continued]
