Summary
- The group reconvened the next day at noon and left through the east gate.
- Rather than push the trip to be done in one day and one night, the decision was made to take the trip in two stages.
- The Flannari army is encamped on the far side of the mountains, so the road was busy with traders and teamsters. Passed by the Valley of Wrath on the way.
- A traders camp was found at the top of the pass. Frimble used the opportunity to make some trades, Thurmin Vustor to find out more about what lay ahead.
- The next day was the beginning of the descent to the Bloody Thirty-Nine. The view was of hundreds of miles of woodland, denser forest to the east.
- Around the town at the base of the pass were hundreds of multi-coloured tents and the campfires of the Flannari army.
- During the descent, Frimble became convinced that he could hear the call of a Giant Night Owl. Byll also said he could hear it, and left to investigate.
- Despite deep misgivings from the rest of the group about the existence of any such beast as a Giant Night Owl, Frimble insisted that hearing one was good luck.
- Several in the group figured that Byll was using the ruse of a "Giant Night Owl" to meet with a confederate.
- As the group approached the town, Byll reappeared, stating that there was an Owlbear and that it needed to be dealt with.
- The group approached an abandoned farmhouse, from which the calls of the Owlbear could be heard. A fire was also burning in the farmhouse.
- Template:Brunner, under the effects of an enlargement spell from Uhanimara was charged by the Owlbear. Template:Brunner scored a critical hit with his axe.
- Gravely wounded, the Owlbear mauled Template:Drem almost to the point of death. The Owlbear was then killed.
- Template:Gallus was rescued from the farmhouse, where he had been hiding on the second floor from the Owlbear.
- An investigation of the area around the farmhouse turned up two bodies, one of which had fragments of Owlbear egg.
- The next morning, the group went to town, in the hopes of finding a bed, bath, and meal for Template:Gallus. Unable to find a bed, they pressed on into the Bloody Thirty-Nine.
- Villagers in the outlying areas are in hiding or have abandoned their homes.
- The group made camp beside the road at the edge of a forest.
- In the middle of the night, a volley of arrows was launched at the group from out of the forest.
