Session 9 - The Depths of Tresendar Manor - 19 June 22

 Start/Highlights

• After healing up a bit from the pit trap, the PCs pressed on and discovered the next room was inhabited by 3 skeleton warriors and a skeleton Minotaur.
• Once the skeletons realized the PCs did not have white sashes on their belts, they attacked.
• After the fight and some minor healing, the players continued and found a jail cell guarded by 2 white sashes, which were dispatched quickly.
• Inside the jail there was a woman and her two kids.
• She told the group they were the woodcarvers family and were captured last week from the white sashes after her husband told them to go away.
• All they know is that the boss is a wizard (though they haven’t met him and don’t know his name), and that he has “tall, furry monsters with big ears” as help.
• The party found a weapons locker also, but only took a few items to replace a few things, but left the extra sashes inside.
• Thena and Snip escorted the family out of the basement (back to Townmasters office) while the rest of the group continued on.
• Thena was given some information from Mirna.
• While the two left, the rest continued on and found a cave in the middle area of the basement.
• There were voices echoing thru everyone's head and asking for 'fresh meats..'
• The party made a deal with the creatures: free passage thru the area and some info for dead bodies, which they agreed to.
• The party went into the NW corridor down stairs and found a wizards lab:
• a large worktable set up with alembics, retorts, distillation coils, and other alchemist devices, all of it stewing and bubbling away. Bookshelves are crowded with sheaves of parchment and strange-looking tomes.
• A rat was begging for food and hiding under the cabinets.
• There are numerous books and potion recipes on the table and wall (arcana check)
• While the main group was entering the lab, Thena and Snip were catching up to the group when they heard a noise behind them to see a cloaked figure looking back at them.....

• Mirna Dendrar and her two teenage children, thirteen-year-old Nars and eighteen-year-old Nilsa.
