Terror from Below - July 21, 217

- Dad jokes - "Roll damage" - So bad it's funny. Not.
- Uninvited from trivia group for being too specific.
- Transporter philosophy.
- Dogs because people suck.
- Jolly Ranchers!

- Felosyal is still at Exhaustion 1 as of right now. (Disadvantage on skill checks.)
- Thessalie hears music and finds the musicians. She proposed a dance to cheer up the dour camp.
- F joins in the dancing with her friend.
- Sharai casts an illusion of herself dancing and hides in the shadows. She does not dance.
- T dances for quite a while.
- S goes and hangs our with Godrigon who is reading a book just outside his tent. It is a religious treatise. On Paladine of course.
- S shows Godrigon an image of Talathon. No recognition.
- Godrigon thinks if there is a necromancer, Talathon or not, he would probably have ensconced himself in the remains of the government palace.
- S fills in Godrigon on the state of Herimond, such as it was.
- S proposes using a Teleportation Circle to send the refugees to Mistverge or the elves. He says he will discuss it with Captain Amastacia.
- F dances and then sits by a camp fire with Mialee to chat.
- Mialee suspects the other campfires are the dark elves.
- T shows up to take a break from dancing, and starts to worry about whether Mishakal's destruction of Lellutho gave Takhisis an opening to interfere in this realm.
- There is resting. In a Hut.
- T is very sore from dancing so much. (Exhaustion1)
- F is feeling much better, though.
- FST are brought food. T is sad to not have helped feed everyone with her spell. S cheers her up with mention of being able to have a perfectly nutritious second breakfast.
- While eating, the earth starts to shake, and there is screaming and commotion from the south end of the camp. FST start running to the commotion. So do the captain and the father.
- There is a huge creature that looks like a cross between a crocodile and a centipede. It's dark blue with a lighter blue underbelly. It came out of a very large hole in the ground that it clearly dug.
- T tries yelling "Bad under creature! Bad!" It doesn't notice her.
