After our heroes welcome at Elkridge, the group are content to move on back to Arabel with the Neldrath stone.
Now I would like to take the time to put to bed some rumours that our foray into the mountains and encounter with Bejark was a "disaster", " a horrible war crime", or any other negative adjective.
Its true that Bejark escaped, and yes it's true that an ancient city of priceless archaeological value was destroyed, and nobody is denying that, yes, a verdant jungle biome thriving with life and supporting countless communities was snuffed out.
But what people don't understand is that at the end of the day what is important is that we got our stone and that's all the wizard-man/quest-giver in Arabal wanted us to do.
Now some people might object to this by pointing out that we had only known this wizard-man/quest-giver in Arabal for like, what, 30 minutes. And on his word we defaced and destroyed an ancient ecological system. What these people don't understand is that we really wanted the XP and plus it has been like 14 sessions and we still haven't progressed this dam main plot.
So... the next bit gets real weird and i'm assuming the group harvested some random mushrooms.
On our way back to Arabal we come across an injured merchant who informs us that his attackers fled that-ta way. So we chased them until we eventually came to a village of woodworking goblins.
The goblins, who's only desire is to build high quality period furniture, were being attacked by Skrulls. Naturally, being lovers of fine wood furniture ourselves, we defended the goblins.
The skrulls were super tough and things were looking sketchy until the goblins summoned these massive canvas kites that grew faces and descended upon the skrulls. The kites would either pick them up and drop them from the sky, or simply devour them.
Honestly it was super bizarre but also awesome.
After the fight, the goblins abased themselves in thanks for our help, gave us a clue to another Neldrath stone, and also gave Saul a cool magical quiver.
