Lord Jaeger is still cursed by eternal sleep and thus his mind has been fractured. Torn and split between his worst times and greatest accomplishments. We have been helping him by exploring his mind to find a way to bring him back from the void. Last time, our group slew a massive Cleric Beast and when we returned through the lamp, we were told that Lord Jaeger stirred a bit. Whatever we did in there seemed to help.

So once more we returned to the weird world that existed in this mans mind.

We decided to take a small trip and retrace our path to hit some spots we overlooked in our last adventure. Doing this ran us into a massive pack of dogs. Which as with everything else we decided to kill. Like with many things here they dropped little bits of loots. The bodies here were always filled with these little white, soul-like, things. Once touched they would show themselves as an item and most often these were "blood vials" I don't know why I knew that name but once I touched them I knew exactly what they were and even how to use them. Stab into your thigh, always in the exact same spot, and you would be healed. No matter how I tried to change how it functioned my body would always stab my right thigh with no variance whatsoever. It was so odd how things worked in this place.

We we followed that fight with another. This time it was humanoids one of them was massive about he size of a brown bear. He and his buddies were like all of the rest of the creatures in here. Scary and tough to deal with. The would always rush forward like a swelling wave on the sea over a barrier. They filled any gaps we could use to navigate the space.

Then you won't believe it! We ran into more dogs! Another fight for our lives! Sure once one of us died we would be pulled out of the dream, but that person would die in real life. The pain of it all was also real and would carry over too. On that topic Echo was savaged by a group of enemies. Dropped twice. Nearly died once. Took a massive amount of damage and I was on top of them to keep them breathing but it was close. Too close. We won the fight but it was hard earned.

We opened some chests. I was able to get a makeshift flame thrower, fueled by oil, and when I left the dream...It was not with me.

Dr. Price paid us and we headed out for the night. We would return later and enter a new area- the aqueducts.

Dr Price was awaiting our return.  We were offered drinks and snacks.  That was new.  She thanked us for coming back.  “I know this is not traditional, but nothing about Lord Jaeger’s life was traditional.”  We were sent into the dream. 

The massive red moon hung impossibly low.  The sound of screams, the roars of monsters, and the smell of blood.  Welcome back to Yharnum. 

Instead of crossing all the way over the bridge we backtracked to areas we hadn’t traveled yet.  We killed 10 dogs and found another rune in a chest.  Rounding another corner there was a large gathering.  I was concerned when I saw the huge cleaver and an accursed wheelchair sniper, but we dispatched them with just a few scratches. 

We backtracked even further and found more dogs and wheelchair snipers.  They would hold shots for anyone that stuck their necks out.  It went very poorly for Knicks.  Amara drew fire once to clear the way but there was still a large fire in the hallway.  With no concern for her safety, Sapphyre rolled down the stairs and across some ball bearings almost into flaming webs.  I jumped over the bulk of the fire and charged into the thick of it while shouting to my companions, “Get down here, I’m probably going to die.”  I did some serious damage, but was promptly stunned then knocked unconscious.  I get knocked down, but I get up again. You're never gonna keep me down.  Right back to beating cripples to death.  Or mist. 

We decided to return to the aqueducts next time we entered Yharnam.
