[Charon Ruling, Shale Sleeping, Cycles Resting]
(Festival of The Orb: Charon: Craft, Combat and Feasts)
Moonday (Afternoon)
Meanwhile, Helen Tanner requests that the heroes investigate the disappearance of farmers from outlying farms. Ethan expresses dismay that people could be foolish enough to live so far from the protection of a village.
Ethan, Bob, Tim and Todd head to the Mortar farmstead nearby where they investigate a disappearance. All occupants of the small farm have disappeared. A horse has been ripped in half and the porch and door of the log farmhouse have been torn asunder as if they were paper. Inside a meal is still sitting on the table but is beginning to rot. It looks like a familly meal was interrupted. A bowl lies carefully placed, upturned in the fireplace and a lump of coal lies carefully placed in the stewpot on the table. A knife lies in a soup bowl and a spoon is jammed into a loaf of bread.
"Looks like a really strong creature came here and confused everyone." Bob noted with a burst of intuition. Todd Stuffitt finds a pouch with 20 gold piece stashed in the fireplace. He explains that it is a 'rescue fee' from the Woodhaven town guard. And claims he will give it back if they ever find the owner, James Mortar alive. Tim looks enviously at the stone fireplace and wonders if they will find whoever built it. It is well made and loose stone is easy to find in the village. Bob finds tracks showing a massive creature that can burrow almost as fast as a man can walk. The human tracks show that their owners ran about in a confused way for a while then they all started walking slowly in the general direction of Ozkelthorpe.
The four then investiagte another disappearance and speak to Jenick Loner at his farm a few miles away. His son has been taken. He is slighly odd and refuses to go to the village for protection. In a muddy field where the son disappeared, Charmer picks of the same tracks again. This time he also detects tracks of a creature that resemble sticks being poked rapidly into the ground. They follow the boy's tracks and notice that they lead in the same direction as the Mortar's. However the massive creature's tracks move off in another direction. Ethan calculates that they are heading to another farmstead.
They ride will alll haste and manage arrive at Jack Krippen's farmstead as the creature is about to attack. It is the size of an ogre and looks like a cross between an insect and an ape. It strange set of mammal and insect eyes confuse Charmer as he attacks and he accidentally fires at his companions. Tim Tanner attacks with his new magical mace and with the spiritual mace of Croi. Ethan sings and rages and smashes the creature with a mighty blow. Ethan is badly wouned in the battle but suffering from Ethan's crushing first blow with the morning star, creature is soon taken down. They look up from their fallen foe to see a man and woman hugging a small child. Her eyes are filled with tears of relief. Helen Krippen calls out to their saviours.
