Title: Crawworth Expedition - Day 6
Author:
The journey to the village was uneventful, but again tragedy has found us worthy of it's attention.
A few hours after leaving and heading out through the strange land we spotted some creatures moving about on a hillside not to far from us.
Journeying closer to take a look we discovered a small group of green creatures with scaly skin. They leap from place to place on powerful hind legs and eat smaller insects.
It seemed strange to Enas that they would be gathered around, apparently waiting for something, and he commented on it just as the brush nearby opened up to reveal one of the most horrifying sights I have ever laid eyes on. A tall, snake-like creature, brandishing a scimitar slithered into our midst and attacked Michelle as she tried to string her bow. CrawWorth tried desperately to protect her, but was held up by the small green creatures, who began moving around in evasive patterns as soon as the snake-man appeared.
Enas loosed a spell and an energy bolt hit the being square in the chest. After releasing a hiss of rage he quickly dispatched Michelle with his scimitar. Without Xarot's healing abilities I'm afraid she was lost to us.
CrawWorth was now behind the beast, and he swung his sword viciously, letting out a snarl as he did so. His manly form was in perfect harmony with his weapon as he sliced the monster nearly in two.
We buried Michelle's body, taking from her all the equipment we could carry, and Enas saying a word of virtue over her body.
We quickly tired of walking, and no one has spoken since the incident.
Tomorrow I will write more, it's too painful right now.
