Day
23
The
Witch King uses his Magic Sight to learn two more spells off of
the Scroll of Alchemy, but the Witch can't seem to get the hang
of Magic Sight with the Phantom Glass and fails to learn a spell
at the Statue. At the end of the day, the Witch King is blocked
by two Ghosts, who have tried this before and apparently learned
nothing. The Captain and his hirelings hide and wait for the Witch,
but the Elf has moved on and waits outside the caves looking for
hidden enemies with his alerted Bow. At sunset, the Druid wanders
by. The Black Knight and Amazon spend the day traveling with their
mounts, and the White Knight lugs that Golden Icon off the mountain
with his Tremendous carrying capacity. At the Cairns, the Wizard
hides and alerts a couple of Magic chits, preparing an exciting
evening for the Tremendous Spider standing guard over the site,
while the Pilgrim stops just short of the Cairns and wonders why
all the thunderclouds are collecting over the mountain top.
In
combat, the Wizard's two Lightning Bolts fizzle out in the damp
weather and the Wizard flies away from the annoyed Tremendous Spider.
The Witch King eliminates the two Ghosts again, and the Elf claims
his revenge by calmly putting an arrow into the Druid.
