Day
3
The
Lost Castle is revealed in Ledges! Captain Alatriste and his hired
men stop dead in their tracks surrounded by a cacophony of threatening
sounds and glimmering treasure sites. The Witch King brazenly accosts
Odin, our surviving Tremendous Giant, while a Heavy Spider drops
in unexpectedly. The Wizard turns up the Small Campfire, but, since
there are no characters for them to pass the time with around the
fire, the Bashkars don't drop by. The Amazon sneaks past some Goblins,
and the Witch settles in for a relaxing picnic in Evil Valley. The
White Knight rummages around looking for the secret passage in Cliff.
Over in Deep Woods, the Berserker sleeps through the day, the Druid
learns a spell, and the Elf tries to go spelunking but is interrupted
by an Imp. After dinner the Black Knight drops in.
In
combat, the Witch King casts Absorb Essence on the Tremendous Giant,
watches the Heavy Spider bounce harmlessly off his Tremendous vulnerability,
and then rips the surprised Spider to pieces with the Giant's Heavy
attack. In Deep Woods The Black Knight smashes the Imp with his
Mace while the Elf evades being hit with a Curse. Elsewhere, the
mages are busy casting spells...
