//Here's a more detailed map of the world. The map they have in-game is still undetailed like the old map, but there'll be an opportunity for replacement of it soon anyway. Click the map to view the full size.

((Session notes from 8/14, posted with Peran's permission:
There are two doors exiting the room they fought the statues in, and the party heads towards the left door, which is locked, but Holf breaks it down, revealing a tiny room with a trapdoor in the floor. They decide to check the other door, which surprises everyone by headbutting Holf and running off, revealing a Chimera in the chamber beyond. After they dispatch the Chimera, they search its prison, finding many dwarven skeletons, 13,000 gold(which they divide), and a map of the region(as posted by Peran here). After gathering their loot, they return to the trapdoor.
The descent poses some trouble, as Nava brought her riding dog in with her. Everybody else goes down first, Myra doing some quick work to avoid a nasty fall, and Nava lowers the poor puppy down, eventually running out of rope and having to drop it the last few feet, though Holf and Killian catch it. New rule: from now on, riding dogs stay outside the dungeon with the horses.
As they all get downstairs, the ladder retracts and the walls begin to move in on them. Luckily, they see a fork in the hallway ahead, and as they watch a goodie-loaded Gelatinous Cube moves from right to left. A panicked Holf defaults to chasing after the treasure, and everybody else follows, with Roxy, Killian and the dwarf cutting it very close. Unfortunately, the Doofus falls over, and is stuck tight inside the closing passageway, protected by his armor but unable to move. As they debate how to remove him, the cube comes back, accompanied by one from the other side of the passageway as well. During the fight, Doofus manages to extricate himself from the passageway trap, which surprises no one.
Picking through the remains of the cubes, they find 15,000 gp(which they divide), a crown, a ring, and several gems. The crown is identified as a mundane dwarven-made crown, and the ring as a magical ring that will shine with purple light when the command phrase, "froggy froggy my bread is soggy," is spoken. Roxy keeps the crown, and Myra takes the ring. After they gather the loot, Myra's mysterious book begins to vibrate, flipping open to a page with a poem written on it in common. Just after that, music comes from down the passage, and the poem begins to be sung by spooky voices.
They follow the music to the end of the passage, and through a door, where they see a very old dwarf sitting in the room. As Holf and Nava approach, he looks up to them, clearly blind. Nobody is quite sure what to do, and then the dwarf, who is apparently a wizard, launches a fireball at them, making the action to take immediately clear.
At first it seems that the dwarf is invulnerable, but eventually he breaks free of the enchantment and stops the combat, explaining to the party that he had actually been trapped. In gratitude, he awards Nava a morningstar with an accuracy enchantment to replace her crappy dagger. He introduces himself as Malchus Elmdoor and also tells them that, unfortunately, the Lord of Illusions is in another castle, but Malcus will help if he can.
And we'll talk to him next time.))

((Session notes from 8/21, posted with Peran's permission:
The party talked to the dwarf, Malchus, and learns more about the Lord of Illusion and his intent to shroud the world in chaos and fear. Unfortunately, he didn't actually know anything about pumpkins, but after examining the first one he identified them as Sacred Vessels, and filled them in on the locations of the remaining two - one with the Lord of Chaos, and the other in the plane of Fugue. The party agreed to search for the sacred vessel on the mountaintop next, and spent the night in the dwarf fortress to rest and recover.
The next morning, they set off down the mountain, having a small amount of difficulties with the descent, and set off for the other mountain. They took down a giant ape creature on their way, looting a nice amount of gold, and decided to stop in the town of Fayfield to resupply and sleep. A few people get new armor, and the others restock on healing supplies, climbing kits, and magical items.
After the shopping trip, they attempted to gather information about the forest. They find out that the forest is strange and dangerous, and most who enter never come out again. There's conflicting information about whether they should follow the path, or whether the path leads them in circles. It's definitely enchanted. Other happenings in town include: a drinking contest between Holf and Nava(Holf won) and a concert put on by Roxy.
They prepare to enter the forest.))

((Session notes from 8/28, posted with Peran's permission:
Malchus went around and asked the party if any of them wanted to be permanently enlarged or shrunk down. A few party members considered the offer, but passed for now. Then they went to the forest.
They debated whether to follow the path or strike out on their own. Holf lost the argument to Kelsy and Roxy, who insisted they follow the path. Eventually they get in the forest on the path, and after traveling for a short while they meet a basilisk, and the paladin seemingly takes leave of her senses, looking directly into its eyes before hugging it. Apparently, it's now her paladin mount, despite protests from the rest of the party. Malchus shrinks it down and she keeps it in her pack for now, and they continue.
They come to a broken rope bridge spanning a large ravine. Holf pushes a button on one side, and Wingy flies across the push the other button, and the bridge magically repairs itself, though it un-repairs as soon as Holf takes his hand off the button to cross. After a bit of finagling with the puzzle bridge, they figure out the trick and everybody gets to the other side and continues.
They spot an abandoned shack in the forest just off the path, and decide to check it out. Once inside, they're attacked by a pair of undead monstrosities. Wingy is an early casualty in the fight, but after the monsters are dispatched they discover that he was only paralyzed.
They search the rest of the house, and find some neat stuff upstairs. The haul consists of a scroll of raise dead, a mystery scroll, a scroll of limited wish, a potion of tongues, a wand of levitate(12 charges), a wand of enlarge person(16 charges), and a wand of magic missile(11 charges).))

((Session notes from 9/4, posted with Peran's permission:
They leave the abandoned house and continue along the path. As they proceed, they hear a steady pounding sound from up ahead, and Roxy decides to make the entire group invisible and sneak up on it. They find a strange creature pounding on a stone door that the path leads up to, and realize it's a Shield Guardian, controlled via amulet from somewhere else. Holf goes up to help it break down the door, and the mask begins speaking to him. First they try to speak the password they find inscribed on the cliff, but that doesn't work. Eventually, acting on a hint from an unseen voice, the party and the mash speak the password in unison, and the mask falls from the wall as the door opens. Holf picks up the still-talking mask to take with them, naming it Face-Face, and they follow the Shield Guardian as it enters the passage.
They proceed into the passage, passing Shieldy in a large open cavern, and enter another with much more plant life and a stream. As they enter the next room, they get jumped by a giant spider, but they take it out with no problem. As they proceed, they encounter trolls and dinosaurs, including a triceratops and what sounds like a raptor, but manage to avoid further combat until two megaraptors jump them. As they fight, the trolls hear the commotion and come at them from behind. They manage to fight their way out of the situation though, and in the process Wingy locates the control amulet and gives it to Roxy, who uses it to control Shieldy to deal the final blow. Malchius is in poor shape as they regroup after the fight.))

((Session notes from 9/11, posted with Peran's permission:
After recovering from the big battle, they proceed through the cave structure, Roxy riding the Shield Guardian. They come to a staircase, which they climb - the shield guardian breaking them as he ascends - and emerge into the forest again. They decide to rest here, since the raptors can't come up the broken stairs, and the night passes uneventfully.
As they proceeded through the forest, suddenly all sounds vanished. They then saw a man in a weird hat sitting against a tree up ahead, and a bird flying in front of them that ages into dust in a matter of seconds. They determine that it's a time field, and the man in the hat pops over to them in a puff of smoke and asks them to play a game with him.
They all get magically stuck to a table, and take turns drawing cards from a deck the man provides. All sorts of things happen, including weird tingles, light sensations, and a few fireballs from the sky. The man in the hat ends up on the losing end of the cards though, and dies, but not before giving them instructions on how to exit the time field. Roxy finds a strange lens on the man's body before they proceed.))
