Having re-shaped into human form, Alice dries herself, warms up and dons her Vest of Protection, clothes and equipment



Great work Alice! Uh, can you - remove the rings and the wand? And please bury the bones in a respectful way!
Alice prys rings and staff from the skeletonized hand and respectfully tosses it back into the water.
What are all those rings about? Maybe the owl guy can tell us. So the staff gives you another ranged attack? That should greatly increase our firepower!

That was again great work! We should leave opening that chest to Ashley!
Alice nods.
Yes, I've had my share of chest traps already. And I don't wanna break her stuff. I hope there's more valuables inside than in the last one.

Yulya gladly takes the octopus snack from Cat and finds a little more time to rest while Alice warms up.
Let us continue! There appears only one way westwards!
Yulya carefully leads her party to the west passage, staying behind and investigating the area for traps
Alice rests until her Ki points are regenerated.
Alright, let's go! What about the cats? Will they follow us or sleep here?

Alice advances in front next to Cat, her bow readied with a honed arrow. If the immediate coast in clear, Alice will inspect the barrels.

[Time: Tuesday, Spring 26, 6:00, 9C Calm]

The ring of quick casting has reset. Everyone's temporary hit points bestowed by Yulya have refreshed. Ashley has returned to human form and is sleeping. You realize it's been since late yesterday morning that you've all slept. Nixie and the other cats have all despawned.



Cat also realizes that her natural claws are not capable of being honed. Each claw instead sheds a hollow casing of itself when enough force is exerted, yet even then they're not considered "honed." So she settles for honing her sword.



Cat will need another hour to recuperate from her injuries, Alice will need another three or be healed in some way. Yulya and Ashley are fully refreshed.

You consider if you should rest more and sleep now or after the rest of this level has been explored, you feel tired but are in no danger of becoming exhausted any time soon. Ashley will likely sleep for another 4 hours unless awakened.

[Interactions are required before you venture fourth.]

Noticing that everyone is tired and Alice and Cat still need to rest and Ashleys already sleeping Yulya decides it is time to sleep.
Who knows what still awaits us there? We will depart after a long rest and a meal. There is no rush and our food sources keep increasing!



Yulya sets up the tent near where Ashley is sleeping and takes the first watch.

Alice has no complaints. She helps set up the tent, hops inside and after all the aquatic ruckus tosses the 2nd candy the Mechatherial goddess gave to her in her mouth and goes to sleep under her pile of clothes as usual.
I'll take the shift after Cat! Good Night! Or Day? I've completely lost track of time...

While not especially tired, Cat also goes to rest and hones her sword. She takes the 3rd watch after Alice and prepares breakfast after everyone has woken up.

[Time: Tuesday, Spring 26, 10:00, 9C Calm]

After 4 hours, Ashley awoke to find Yulya on guard and everyone sleeping. She accepted the duty and Yulya went to sleep. Yulya explained the guarding rotation but she didn't wake Ashley for her turn and now that she was already awake, she decided to let everyone sleep.

[Time: Tuesday, Spring 26, 11:26, 9C Calm]

Ashley'd only been guarding for an hour and a half when she heard a noise.



With not an intact ear among them but surging with leftover dark energies, the three ghouls reanimate to Ashley's utter disbelief.

"Dangit! How careless! We're desecrating every body from now on! Everyone up, we're under attack again."



Ashley summons Nixie but holds her back.

[INITIATIVE 1d20+4,+4,+4 vs 1d20+1,+1,+0,+3= Z(16,5,15) Y7,C18,AS18,AL22]

[Round 1]


Alice and Cat jump to ready immediately upon hearing Ashley, Yulya needs more coaxing to wake up and thus misses out on initiative.

[You all can make your moves, but Yulya's move will come after two of the zombies, Nixie will make her move once she's sure there won't be any loud bangs or splash damage involved. Everyone is refreshed but Cat and Alice need 3 more hours sleep and Yulya needs 7.]

Yulya sleepily stumbles out of the tent and sees the ghouls
Oh nonono how could this happen? We should have disposed of the bodies!

She immediately casts BLESS on Alice Ashley and Cat. and lets them attack.
Go for the one west of us first!

Then uses her Ring of Quick Casting to try out her new staff. She expends 2 points and casts Magic Missile lv2 all on one target. If ghoul3 is still up she will target him. if not either ghoul 1 or 2 whoever she sees first. If she has to advance to get a line of sight she will as far as necessary but then fall back to the tent.

Nyaa not you guys again Nya!
Cat activates Rage and uses Feline Agility to charge and jump down on the nearest ghoul W of them (bludgeoning dmg?). She attacks him with her claws using Nick
