Session #7b - In search of a smelly elf

by Fidget

We rowed out in the morning. We followed the river up towards the mountains. After a while, we see that the flooding seems to be getting less severe. We realized one of the tributaries was super-flooded, so we turned back and followed that path.

Suddenly, a huge creature that looked like a really fat, hairless cow dumped one of our boats, tossing Hammond, Gan, and me into the water. Then it bit me hard... I don't think I could take another bite like that. Gan says it's a hippopotamus and that it's larger than it should be. They don't usually eat people. They don't move particularly quickly, but they can sneak up on boats and flip them. They also have a trample ability. We made it to shore, but it trampled us. It knocked Hammond out for a moment, but Nathaniel brought him back into the fight. Hammond made the hippo... laugh? I guess that's what it was doing. It was a tough fight, but we prevailed. Apparently hippos aren't even supposed to be in this area of the world... and it was magically big.

We patched ourselves up and then continued up the tributary.

We found a MASSIVE pile of timber. It's the biggest beaver dam we've ever heard of. The dam is blocking off one of the branches of the stream, so all of the water is flowing down the tributary we just came up and causing all of the flooding.

It was nearly nightfall, so we decided to rest for the evening and investigate the beaver dam in the morning.

The morning of the 23rd...
We looked around the dam. There's a big lake on this side of the dam now. We noticed some human-sized beavers. They're hauling logs to enhance and fortify the dam. On the west side of the dam, we found an entrance to the dam on the ground. Normally, beaver dam entrances are underwater (that's what Nathaniel said). So it must be for other creatures than the beavers. We peeked in... the entrance opened up into a hallway. This pile is so big, there could be a whole dungeon in there!
