Session 6 (6/26/21)

 The Trolls' Egg

The party was summoned to the Druid Grove by Arkus Woodsplitter who told them that rare albino lake trolls were being attacked by black scaled kobolds. He didn't know what drove them towards their cave, but that the albino trolls were an endangered species that must be protected. He also warned that they were fiercely stupid, and would likely also be aggressive towards the party. The kobolds wore a strange holy symbol which the party did not investigate. 

The party went and fought off the kobolds, leaving the cave to the trolls. Returning to the grove they had a divinatory smoking, and saw that the trolls were guarding a bronze dragon egg that would soon hatch into a wyrmling. Arkus told them that dragons are the source of magic and that too few are born. They did a great thing for the magical environment by saving the egg from the kobolds who would have likely destroyed it.

A Captivating Masterpiece

Faunra, a high level bard from the college of art, wishes to create a captivating masterpiece by studying the songs of a harpy, a bog nixie, and a siren. All of them have the ability to sing a captivating song, which is more powerful than the fascination bardic performance. She hopes by studying them she can create a more powerful song herself.

She asked the party to obtain an unharmed harpy, siren, and bog nixie. The party consulted the druids on how they might succeed- the druids suggested nets. 

They found that a nest of harpies has been bothersome on the Nation of Holly, and that Thrain Horsemaster knows an area of sea where sirens tend to attack his sailors, and they learned from the druids about a bog nixie in a swamp. They went there and found a large pond, large enough to hold a huge creature. They went in and were attacked by a huge frog, who began to swallow pending. Vesper had deafened herself and made herself immune to the nixie's captivating song. They defeated the frog, but the nixie hid herself and they were unable to locate her. The party retreated back to town to come up with a new plan.
