Questing
Merryasks Ugly to carry Barrel over to his wagon and set him inside. The wagon has a corner that Merry calls "the sick box" which is where the dogs go when they are hurt. It has a worn blanket with food and water in easy reach. Merry checks on the bandage that Nora put on Barrel. The dog hasn't woken up yet, but Merry does his best to make sure the dog is comfortable before climbing back into the driver's seat.
The Logging Village
The party arrives at a logging village safely thanks to Book's knowledge of the area.
Ugly asks what the sign says as they enter the town. Book replies that it means, "Urinate on this sign for good luck." Ugly proceeds to urinate on the sign.
Eins Walgorg, Jr falls off the cart. The party calls to Nora to check on him.
Nora runs to him to see why he fell. He seems poisoned again.{[Nora}} doesn't know exactly which poison it is but she suspects it was ingested poison. Mahina tries to find out more info about the poison but cannot.
Nora feels like he will be fairly stable but recommends that they go to the church and hole up there for the evening. Ugly agrees with this idea.
At the Church
They arrive at the church and Ugly introduces himself to the cleric outside of the church. She says her name is Jofrana and that she was just about to have dinner. Merry explains the situation to the cleric. Nora says she believes that he was poisoned from this vial. She hands the vial to the cleric. The cleric sniffs it then says, "Oh dear, come in" and ushers in the party.
Jofrana says this is a magical poison, was more common in war and used in assassination attempts- it's a good way of getting people buried alive. She says the antidote is made from a rare plant and she doesn't know of any in the area. She says the only place she has seen it is in the misty area, about 2 hills to the north. It's a pretty dangerous place as it is haunted and cursed.
Merry presses for more information. Jofrana says the area is very misty and most people get lost and/or eaten by monsters. There's a haunted tower and all sorts of ghastly things.
She says they are welcome to sleep in the church. The plant is 5 pronged, has red berries and it's the berries they need. She offers food but says she doesn't have much, Tempest replies that they have their own food. It's body shock poison- she says to check your food because it's ingested. She mentions to detect magic on the food since it's a magical poison.
Merry asks if Jofrana could heal his dog and Book. Book thanks her for the healing. She also heals Tempest. Book asks if they have a library. She says she only has three books. Merry offers a volume of the book he's been writing for her help and gives it to her. She lets Book borrow her books, including the "Canon of Orthodoxy" with local notes in it.
Book memorizes the books, one of which is Gelthien's books.
Merry takes all the poisoned food, marks it, and locks it in one of his trunks.
The party rests for the night.
