26th May 2023 In-game timeline: Start of session: 1490DR Ches 14. End of session: 1490DR Ches 14 Our "Heroes" set off from Shining Creek in the Lurkwood after a short, but respectful, burial of Silvermoon. They are heading towards the mine that they know is in the centre of the forest, and with Iwee's returning memories of the area, coupled with her ability to talk to the creatures of the forest, they do manage to find their way there, albeit a little slowly due to the presence of a large salamander walking with them through the close-knit trees. Their horse, Thumb, who has survived a remarkable length of time in their company, they decide to leave with the folk of Shining Creek for now, as a mine is no place for a horse. After almost a full day's travelling in the woods they spot a clearing ahead, with a large hill in the centre. Acting cautiously, Derrick sends a somewhat reluctant Pacino to scan the area and the owl returns rather quickly complaining that he was sh...

5th May 2023 In-game timeline: Start of session: 1490DR Ches 10. End of session: 1490DR Ches 14 Our "Heroes" travel back to Settlestone, with Iwee hiding the precious bluecap mushrooms in a sock in a purse of holding - insocktion, as Derrick referred to it. Silvermoon is back in her home and welcomes the travellers - especially when they explain that they have obtains a good amount of bluecap mushrooms for the ceremony. Whilst the others wait outside to give some privacy, Iwee and Silvermoon prepare for the linking ceremony and close the blinds and place the mushrooms over the fire for their smoke to rise and permeate the room. At this point, Iwee and Silvermoon undertake the ceremony where Iwee becomes re-bonded with Kardreth. At the end of the ceremony, when the others enter at Iwee's call, they all find Silvermoon's lifeless body slumped to the floor. Iwee explains that Kardreth had said that her duty was fulfilled and that she could now rest in peace, and apparent...

28th April 2023 In-game timeline: Start of session: 1490DR Ches 9. End of session: 1490DR Ches 10 Our "Heroes" have reached a dead end in the cavern system. At least one of the Duergar that they encountered has escaped, but they find nothing more if interest around the camp so they backtrack to the river. Jaxii searches for signs of where the escaping Duergar may have gone and spots potential tracks heading north, along the side of the river. A tunnel off to the side sparks their interest and they send Pacino to investigate down the tunnel. He sees some yellowy-brown coloured vegetation, but not much else for a short way and the party get bored with that line of investigation, so they abandon that tunnel and continua along the river path. They follow the path for a while, and then lose the tracks. At a fork in the path they follow the route that seems more followed and end up at the grand entrance to the Sporerealm - through a stone arch revealing a glorious cavern of differe...
