Need Some Eyes
15-16 Mirtul, 1502 DR
In the morning, the Glassfang Syndicate received a contract from Ma'am Warmtop, a halfling herbalist living outside of Shining Falls. She paid our party upfront to retrieve the eyes of aberrations located in the nearby Dire Woods. Jax, Mila, Mimsy, Salviron, and myself, Sylk, all proceeded for the hunt.
Early on, we discovered wolves and their dire counterparts ravaging cadavers. After Mila's familiar scouted ahead, Mimsy and I tricked the wolves into following an illusory rabbit. We searched over the bodies, finding them to be wood elves who had fallen to the teeth of their canine foes. After picking up various magical items they held, we continued further into the woods. Though we promised to return the items if we found the elves' tribe or allies, we never found a trace of either.
Further into the Dire Woods, the trees grew stone-covered. Soon, we located a group of foes- chokers, nothics, and a mindwitness. The fight was tense but won in our favor. I would be pleased to never face another choker again.
After the eyeball harvest, we passed the spot with the fallen wood elves, only to discover they were not there any longer. Mimsy's magic detected a hint of necromancy. Given Ma'am Warmtop warned us to avoid skeletons, it appears someone is in the woods practicing their dark magic. A warning for others who proceed through this area.
Ma'am Warmtop was thankful, provided us with suspicious soup, and promised to hire us for future jobs as needed.
