Questing for that Asshole Tree Guy

Session Date: July 25, 2020

We found ourselves at the edge of the forest. A sense of foreboding shrouded us as we entered to begin our search for the druid, Savas. As we tried to determine where to go, Remi began talking to a tree, asking for guidance.

Surprising us all, a fiery bulette burst from the ground. We fought until it ran away.

As we tracked deeper into the forest, it got warmer and seemed lit by coal fire.

Eventually we found the bulette curled up at the base of a tree that appeared to be made of burning coal. As we approached, the tree turned to us to greet us. We had found Savas.

He agreed to train Remi if we went to a nearby mine and dealt with an interloping salamander named Rhall.

But first, in order to avoid certain death upon meeting Rhall, we had to travel to three different parts of the forest for reagents Savas could use to give us a leg up in the fight.

We headed first to the southwest to collect seeds from some calithgar plants. We angered the plants. They attacked us. It went…poorly. We were fine, but fucking plants.

Xandria was highly unamused at Savas for inadequately preparing us.

Next we headed off to the spring, where, after much prodding of information out of Savas, we knew an angry water elemental to reside.

We handled the elemental easily.

Lastly, we headed out for the poisonois mushrooms. We met a nice treant named Soft Juniper, who helped us gather the mushrooms after Remi lied about our acquiring them for another treant named Larry. It went surprisingly smoothly.

In preparation for our assalt on Rhall, Savas made a poison from the mushrooms, formed the water into an ice shard with a protective aura, and created a bomb from the calithgar seeds.

Xandria remained salty at Savas.
