Davice, Fidus, Moss and Cooper were battling the Orogs deep in some gods awful stinky cave Cooper was already trying his hardest to forget, when out of the blue a ghost ran by in a moment of calm. She wore the colours of a Mystran Cleric, though ran by quickly and it was too dark to make out a face given her supernatural presence.
She stopped at the end of the cave and thinking she would run through the wall, instead she screamed a sound that made Coopers blood run cold and thousands of spiders covered her and dragged here through the ground.....
The Orogs were beaten back for now, some at least. Davice and Fidus had something to attend to, Furin said it was a "baking meet" and Davice said he had to "polish the floors", likely both poking fun at each other and neither the case.
Moss and Cooper wandered about a bit with Furin and decided they should resupply in Shally and just in case they were right, check on the Temple to make sure all was in order.
It most certainly was not !
Moss and Cooper were not greeted with the usual welcome the Arch Mage was used to, but instead thousands of webs and spiders beyond counting and not just little ones, massive ones, crawling from every nook and crevice!
Burning the webs away and clearing the place of the eight legged spies and soldiers, they checked on the Statue of Mystra, Cooper uttering a significant amount of swearing and prayers intermingled into one.
Seeing the flag to the Spider Queen jammed where it was, he blasted it with the power of the weave, tore it free and immolated it to dust, offering prayer and a promise of sanctity to Mystra!
Moss and Cooper then left hurriedly to warn the sheriff Frimdriscol and Brandioc of what they had found so they were forewarned. Moss corroborating the story to an otherwise indifferent sheriff yet concerned Brandi !
Leaving an ancient Golem to protect the portal as they left.
The Spiders Minions would certainly feel his wrath....
