Session Notes

Returning triumphantly with a handful of Stygian prisoners after defeating the notorious Stone Giant (without a drop of blood being spilled), the party was welcomed as heroes.  Moral became quite high throughout Captain Vanir's troops as word spread throughout the camp that the slayers of Morak have also defeated an ominous threat to their forces. 

Indeed, the bards were already crafting songs to lift the hearts of the brave warriors soon to be in battle.  Songs of brave Maximus the Chaste!  Of the cunning Druid Gnarly Blunderbrush and his magical raven!  Of the fierce Viking Wolfhier! However, not many songs are sung of Thovin of the Black Church, known in some circles as Thovin the lucky for surviving a Stone Giant blow (they do consider him quite a happy chap considering he's of the Black Church and all).

*note that Arg has been hidden away in his tent, brooding in silence since returning from the ruined temple and celebrates not with his friends...???

Wine and ale was drunk throughout the night and many invitations were offered for the heroes to feast as honored guests at tables and around campfires and to recount their infamous confrontation. 

The stories, of course, have already been  'embellished' by the storytellers to include Wolf single-handedly lifting the giant above his head and over the cliffs, and of the Dark Gods protecting the mighty Thovin as he stood unmoved from the savage direct blow from the Stone Giant's club (this leads to many men questioning their faith and seeking out spiritual guidance from the dark cleric)!  The renowned virtue of Maximus who resisted the caresses of one thousand women to remain chaste and defeat the Giant (the demand for whores declined sharply that night). Stories of Gnarly the mystical woodsman who takes the shape of wild creatures and beguiles his foes.

The revelry went deep into the night.

With the arrival of Baron Blackmoor and his banner-men the next morning, all turn their firey bloodlust towards the Stygians and pirates occupying Caladan as the final plans for the assault are made...
