Sessie 12 - Uktar 12 (Day 28)

The party comes upon a round tunnel covered with green mold. When they contemplate how to cross it when a hurricanelike wind blows through the tunnel and over the party, knocking several prone. The party prepares their magical defences and enter the corridor. They suffer no consequences of the wind but while travelling through the tunnel they encounter a acid-breathing purple worm who seems to be immune to the fungus. Half of the party is stunned by the breath attack, leaving Carolus and Orih to deal with the creature. The paladin can smite the evil creature but dies in the proces. After comming to their senses, Saul and the mad hermit restore the paladin to life and health.
After traveling for a few more hours, the party exits the tunnel and enters a large cavern. When Carolus rings the bell, gargoyles arrive and attack the party with magical bursting beads. The gargoyles drive off the party, forcing them to retreat back into the caverns. They discuss tactics and try again. Using guerillatactics, the party can destroy one of the gargoyles and forces them to bargain for passage. The party hands over a few magical items and is granted the right to climb up the cavern. The mad hermit grants magical climbing ability to the party and the can ascend unmolested.
