Please roll nature check if you want to figure out what kind of creature left the tracks.
Valrieth has gained a lot of confidence since coming to Prismeer a couple of weeks ago, and she's not too concerned about 1 creature that's not too large. It would have to be powerfully magical to cause this party much trouble. Still, she examines the tracks.
Val consults her start chart (casts guidance on herself) and tries to determine what creature they're destined to meet. (Nature16)
Lerak eyes do not perceive anything strange beyond Amanita buttering itself.
Amanita pauses from buttering itself. "I suppose I am well buttered now. Okay let's play hide and seek." It begins to move away from the pan, but at its size it is somewhat slow like a snail.
"you know what amanita? ive got a great hiding place, why dont you hide in my backpack? ill tell you when to jump out and surprise him" he offers, before telepathically sending his familiar off to invisibly follow the tracks from the air, reporting back whenever he sees anything interesting

This Mug immediately shared with me a transcendental tale of an Infinite Mug that anchors the Universe and keeps it from folding in on itself. I filed this report under "illogical nonsense" and asked why its sign is in Times New Roman font, when it is basic knowledge that Arial Black is a far superior font. I wondered: How did this mug even get past the assembly line with its theistic beliefs and poor font choices?

Assuming that Ilifir convinces Amanita to get into his backpack, Valrieth says, "Here, I can help you get there faster, Amanita." Since the mushroom is very slow, Val uses her telekineses (invisible mage hand) to lift the mushroom and "fly" it over to Ilifir's backpack. She has to stifle a giggle at the sight of the mushroom settling into the backpack. Val reminds Amanita, "Remember, you stay hidden and be very quiet until you hear us say, 'Come out. Come out, wherever you are.'"
Once Amanita is safely stowed in Ilifir's backpack, Val says, "Ilifir, we need to find out whether Kro'ah can tell us anything else about Loomlurch or Granny Nightshade. Or maybe a shortcut to getting back to Hither quickly. If Kro'ah doesn't have anything else for dinner, maybe we could offer him some of our food. Or -- I know!"Val suddenly remembers that they haven't shown their new companions their portable hole. There wasn't enough room on the balloon to open it, and they hadn't really needed it since arriving in Thither. She quickly explains, "Finley and I forgot to mention that we have a magical hole, a sort of portable cave, where we put things that are too bulky or too heavy to carry. Finley, could you and Lerak check the hole and see whether you can find Jingle-Jangle's bag of truffles? If they're still good, Ilifir and I could offer the goblin one of the truffles in exchange for Amarita's release and some information."
Amanita agrees to Ilifir's suggestion and lets out a whoop of joy at being magically lifted to the pack. "I can do that. Kro'ah will be so surprised." says Amanita. It crouches down cherry as ever.
The sound of wood cutting stops, and everyone surmises that Kro'ah will soon return to the camp in about 5 minutes.
"i HAD been considering rather a different solution" ilifir points out dryly "one that would last a little longer, but ill defer to your wisdom" suddenly he seems to realize something and sighs shaking his head slowly

"Oh!", says Valrieth, looking a little embarrassed. "I so sorry, Ilifir. Of course, if you have a better idea, please share!"
The sound of wood cutting stops, and everyone surmises that Kro'ah will soon return to the camp in about 5 minutes.
When Val hears the sound of the wood cutting stop, she hops up and down a few times to get a better view, looking in that direction where the goblins tracks went. She continues, "I think that we have a few minutes to prepare before Kro'ah gets back. What was your plan?"
Val is "all ears" for any way to prevent Amanita from being eaten and to get Kro'ah to share what he knows about the hag, Loomluch, or the Goblin Market.
"nope!" he says cheerfully "that plan is gone now! dead you might say" he chuckles "ive got a new one! well, its my oldest one, but its newly applied here!" he leans in as if to impart a secret and gestures expansively "bullshit! its all bullshit" he explains in a lowered voice before looking to the others for better ideas
(incidentally, has spike reached kro'ah yet? once he does ilifir will use his eyes to see, try and get a little more information)

Valrieth says, "Oh? Um...OK...I guess," and her ears droop uncertainly. But then she remembers how easily Ilifir was able to trick the bullywugs and get them the balloon without a fight, and she perks up again! She decides that they can trust Ilifir to lie or confuse the common denizens of Prismeer. She starts to wonder whether he's slick enough to trick a hag...
"Oh, aye, ah'd forgotten about th' hole there's so much been happenin'." Finley says, digging through his bags to lay it out in the flattest spot possible in the area. Once he's able to he reaches in looking for the truffles to see if they're still good or not.

Lerak wonders what a portable hole is, never heard about that before. When Finley display the item, the barbarian looks with suspicion into it "It's so dark in there... But yeah sure".As he finishes the sentence he plundge his laft hand into the hole and try to grab anything that feels like a bag of truffles.
"I don't think one gobelin will be attacking us, but I'll be on my guard"he continues with his hand grasping tightly his weapon. on his side.
5 minutes later Kro'ah returns and drops the armload of wood when he sees the party at his camp. "Who are you people and what are you doing in the midst of my camp and where is my dinner?"
His right-hand hovers near his axe in the event violence.
"Hold on my friend. We just arrived here. My nose got the scent of your camp and we were curious about who could do such a nice meal"says Lerak with his hands in the open. "What dinner are you talking about, what were you about to eat ?"he asks, with the hope that the little mushroom hears the answer
(OOC: I'm going to assume that Finley and Lerak had time to get a truffle and close up the portable hole before Kro'ah got back.)
Valrieth says, "Hello! My name is Valrieth. We were on our way to Loomlurch when we stumbled across your campsite. Do you know of it...Loomlurch, that is?" She ignores his question about dinner because she finds it difficult to tell an outright lie, but she nudges Ilifir since he seems to be better at it. Then she tries to step back so that Finley or Lerak are between her and Kro'ah without being too obvious about it.
"Why I was planning to have mushroom for dinner, now pray tell me where has the little critter scamper off to?" says Kro'ah though he seems wary, but annoyed at the loss of his dinner
Amanita heard those words, but the small creature is somewhat simpleminded and thinks Kro'ah is speaking about a regular not sentient mushroom. Amanita lets out a muffled tiny yell of "Surprise from the pack."
Kro'ah looks around "I could have sworn I hears my campestri friend coming from one of you. Care to explain."

Valrieth says, "Based on these tracks, it looks like Amanita's friend, Kro'ah, is a lone goblin. So, probably not too dangerous."
