Torwynn’s Tales 2

A wild hag appears! Quick thinking, Rynaar parkours over the well and deals some bludgeoning damage. Torwynn sprints towards the hag and mid run transforms into a giant Dire Wolf. She goes to bite the hag and with the strength of her bite, knocks the Hag prone. She is so startled, she entirely misses her turn! Kragg then dashes over to join the party but stops to catch his breath before attacking. Bort whips out his cannon and leisurely walks over the action. Thal then pulls out his ‘Spiritual weapon’ but does jack shit. Rynaar is precise with his shots, dealing more damage. Torwynn then goes to take another bite but somehow misses entirely! In retaliation, the Hag then decides to do something and stands up, she then magically splits her form into 6. Two Shades also appear as backup. Kragg hits the closest form and dissipates it. The shade attempts, key word here, attempts, to drain the life force from Torwynn but misses. Bort launches a pebble at one of the forms and aims his cannon at a second form but misses. Thal tries to use his weapon to attack the closest form to him, but misses. His next attack lands on one of the shades. Rynaar attempts to attack the Hag but misses, but does end up dealing damage to the Shade in close proximity. He goes to swing another blow and reveals the real Hag form! Torwynn attacks the Shade again, deals some damage and knocks it prone. The Hag does nothing as Kragg approaches, pissing him off, so he swings his axe RECKLESSLY but MISSES? Both Shades do fuck all. Bort attacks the Hag with force damage and knocks it back 5ft. Thal deals some more damage with his spiritual weapon and cast Sacred Flame on the hag to deal a disappointing amount of radiant damage, but it somehow seems more effective? Rynaar, without hesitation swings his sword to deal more damage. Torwynn takes another bite at the shade but it just won’t die? The Hag takes a deadly swipe at Kragg, who retaliates by swinging his axe to deal some damage to the Hag. The shade deals some damage to Torwynn. Bort does nothing. Thal Sacred Flames the shade but misses, but uses his weapon to deal some damage and redeem himself. Rynaar thrusts his staff through the shade and takes the lil’shit out. Torwynn takes another bite and finally takes the Shade out and sprints over to block any way out for the Hag. The Hag and Kragg continue to take turns dealing blows to one another. Bort transports his cannon to reach a clear shot but misses. He moves in to surround the Hag even more. There will be no escape from the Laughing Axes! Rynaar jabs the Hag. Torwynn does a shit roll. The Hag is fixated on Kragg, dealing enough damage to take Kragg to his knees, but he staggers to his feet and deals an epic blow to the Hag, severely dropping his health.
 
Kragg’s note - I was kneeling out of respect for a worthy foe.
 
OUT OF RESPECT.
 
Bort uses his cannon to take a shot at the Hag, deal some force damage and knock the hag back closer to Torywnn. Despite his refusal, Thal heals Kragg and moves his spiritual weapon closer to the Hag. Rynaar does a wicked cool somersualt over Borts head to fully block the Hag in. Torywnn bites at the Hag but must have just scratched her cheek, as deals a miserable amount of damage. The Hag lets out a shriek, splits her form into 5, and suddenly the buildings start warping, purple fogs are created on the ground and two globulous masses of souls appear behind the party. One of the globs spurt some gas onto Torwynn which everyone except Kragg is quick enough to avoid the first time, Rynaar is hit the second time. Both are blinded. Bort, with his out of the box thinking, shoves, yes thats right, the little gnome shoves, the globeus mass into one of the purple smogs.Thal heals himself. Rynnar swings blindly literally to hit the hag form in front of him. It disaperates so he then moves in closer to one of the globs. Torwynn follows with a bite. Kragg takes a swing at the other glob. The globs are useless and do nothing. Bort reduces that same glob to a puddle and steals another of Kragg’s kills! Rynaar takes out the other one. Torwynn runs towards a potential Hag, takes a bite and it hits! Now that the Hags position is revealed, Kragg also dashes over and summons his axe, it flies across the town square and hits the Hag on the way. Borts and Thal join the fight, Thal dealing some more radiant damage. Rynaar, sensing the Hag has been found, also joins the party surrounding her and deals a flurry of blows to deal damage. Torwynn takes a bite at her with such force it knocks her prone. The Hag attempts to take a swing at Kragg but it backfires tremendously as she knocks into him in such a prime position for a beheading, which Kragg takes advantage of.
 
The party all bask in the glory of their accomplishment and feel a level up thrust upon them but it is short lived. They notice a small girl, no older than 7 hovering by the well looking teary. She asks where everyone is. Torwynn, feeling a sense of Dejavu and history repeating itself, sees herself in the young girl and immediately moves to comfort her, shifting back into her human form. With Rynaar following behind, she escorts the girl to her house to collect her belongings as she cannot stay there. She lingers to stare at a family photo of the girl and her parents, ensuring that this is picked up for the girl to take. The girl also takes a necklace from her parents room and asks to take it. Torwynn shows her that she also has a necklace from her mother to remember her by, and asks her her name as she escorts her to meet back up with the party. The party are outside looting the town. They find a glowing item (didn’t hear what it was).
 
Kragg has noticed a stocked tavern nearby. The party ponder about their next step. Bort stays behind and goes on the hunt for a clock. Probably for some tickering stuff. He then returns and offers Jessica some honey. It doesn’t take long for Rynaar to notice that the girl has had waaayy too much honey and is just covered in it. He leads her to a sink to wash herself. The party decide what to do with Jessica and ask if she has any family nearby. She doesn’t. Torwynn decides to go back to the house to investigate whilst Rynaar and Thal head to the roof to *chill*.
 
YE WEE SHITBAG! rings out throughout the tavern and startles everyone awake. Kragg has awoken trapped beneath Bort’s web cloak and the two exchange a flavourful conversation which results in Bort being strangled in a death grip and thrown against Rynaar who has now appeared in the doorway of the room to see what the commotion is. Torwynn and Jessica are downstairs preparing breakfast for the party. They phone the Brewery using their sending stones and arrange for the old man to come and collect Jessica. He is very grateful. To pass the time, Kragg retells his stories of his teeth trophies.
