Wise Grognards of the Circle of the Blade and Tome,
Thank you to the Holy Clerics who provided the scrolls to remove the curse from three guild members. With these scrolls, we successfully removed the curse from all three.
I, Elzin, along with fellow Guild Journeymen Rhys, Castor, and Gardon accompanied Guild Masters Manawa and Thag during the last 7 months exploring. We traveled North and West. We explored on the other side of some mountains. We had to take shelter with the Hinalu for Winterdeep. It is now midway through Riverchase.
We multiple Umber Hulks. These creatures are similar to the Bullets (land sharks) in that these creatures tunnel and burrow beneath the surface of the ground. The Umber Hulks can dig through solid stone. They have large claws and extremely large pincers. Their eyes emit a gaze that can confuse even the most veteran warrior.
We also faced an extremely large Stone Creature. The creature was a cross between a Stone Giant (had the size of a Stone Giant) and a stone Elemental. The creature oozed blue liquid that crystallized after dropping of its stony body. Once defeated, the creature crumbled into broken stone and bluish diamonds. We have called these gems Tears fo the World.
We have been fortunate to discover over the course of our travels a significant amount of coins. Each guild member received the equivalent of 490 GP and 20 SP. This includes 6 small art statuettes.
We are eager to set out and continue the exploration of this vast continent.
