Fortunately, no one is struck. The party hurries along hoping to find somewhere to get away from the storm while not losing the trail of the final ring.

Eager to get to safety and out of the storm, the group hurries on. It's time for a new event.

It's another merchant encounter. We've done several and the party has nothing to sell. Reroll....

The party pauses to inspect another pile of skulls it finds. Things didn't go well last time Laralute searched a pile of skulls but she has a healing potion and decides to test her luck again. Roll 1d6.

The pile explodes! Everyone must save vs. level 5 or lose 2 life.

Everyone takes 2 points of damage. The party is not looking good! Laralute will use her healing potion. Several gems are found among the bone segments.

Gems: 1d6

Gem value:

Laralute is at full health. She gathers the 6 gems.

Dru checked herself and her companions. "I'm out of healing magic. Everyone is in pretty bad shape. I don't know how much longer we can go on safely," she announced after her assessment. Everyone except Laralute was at less than half their health. Since LL took the potion, she is at 100%.

"We can keep going a little while longer," Olaf replied. "Right Teddy?"

He nodded the stuffed bear's head.

"I suppose," The halfling added.

"I can take the lead when possible," Laralute offered.

Drusilla thought for a moment and applied bandages to herself, Olaf and Slappy.

"Let's continue on, then," Dru said. "We'll evaluate how we're doing after each area we search."

It's time for a new event:

The Legendary bird encounter has already been played and was a one-time event. Roll again.

A little while later, the party spots a tree similar to the others. This is the third and final time this encounter can be used. Laralute has the group wait a safe distance on the road. She'll approach with caution to check the tree.

Roll 1d6.

Laralute is bitten by a centipede. Save at level 3.

She passes, it hurts but there is no damage or ill-effects.

Wolf attack!

Laralute will try to bribe them first by throwing the bird carcass out.

1 or 4=1
2 or 5=2
3 or 6=3

Four or higher, the wolves will fight.
