Draíocht nods in agreement. "Allies will be wise. May the Sarris Talisman light our way. For the route, shall we take the river to the East? If such a small lake harbored a creature like the chuul, I am wary to think what lies in Gooluglogg that drove away the kuo-toa."

Alsen nods and falls in line with you all as you climb the cliff back out of the crevice containing the church, and back toward the river. Random Encounter on a 14+: 1

You don't encounter anything as you make it back to the river and continue following it east. Eventually the river bends once again and you feel tiredness taking over. You set up camp at a dry part of the river bend and make camp. Random Encounter on a 14+: 19

Sorry I've forgotten how you set watch. How many do you set and who keeps watch? Alsen is happy to take or share a watch as well. 

And also, what are you doing with Sanford? He still hasn't awoken.

Valar recommends binding his hands and keeping him in view so whoever is on watch, can keep on eye on him in case he does come around. 

Before resting, Draíocht would use 7 spell slots on goodberry, leaving 2 3rd level. ( and then -5 for daily rations for all of us; could also see about feeding one to the unconscious Sandford is we want )

Agreed with Valar on binding his hands. Probably also having a gag to prevent Verbal components.

Draíocht would want to start trancing earlier, so his 4-hour rest is completed if a harder-than-expected foe comes in a later watch, but is good for keeping watch after.

Thelanis prefers an early watch. Sleeping later.  She’ll take a middle or late watch with grumbling.

Valar will stand his watch at his appointed time

Ok so it would probably go something like this:

1st watch: Thelanis, Alsen

2nd watch: Draíocht, Valar

3rd watch: Draíocht, Amiz

Here's a d6 to see when this random encounter happens, 1-2: 1st Watch. 3-4: 2nd Watch. 5-6: 3rd Watch. ... 6 ...

At the very end of your sleep, Draíocht makes a Perception check with Advantage from Amiz's help: 20 

He notices figures sneaking up on them in the darkness, probably 70ft away at this point. He sees eyes in the darkness, bobbing independently. Initiative:

Group 1: Amiz, Thelanis

Group 2: Figures in the Darkness

Group 3: Draíocht, Valar

(Reminder that no one sleeping can be in armour for the fight. So that's Thelanis and Valar.)

Amiz wakes up Thelanis and the two spring into action. They can see the eyes approaching about 70ft away.

Thelanis strikes out impulsively at the approaching figures blasting with eldtritch energy empowered by the talisman.

Eldritch Blast: 2 beams, AC 29, 15 damage;

AC 12, 14 damage

The first blast hits one of the eyes. Amiz readies his two handaxes to throw at the eyes and when they get into range he throws them (I believe he doesn't get the bonus from Duelling because he isn't "wielding the weapon' when it hits):

Handaxe 1 against Eye 1 Attack: 12 Damage: 6 Slashing

Handaxe 2 against Eye 1 Attack: 11 Damage: 9 Slashing

The eyes then come into the firelight and you see what they are. Four Nothics, just like the creature you found in the g'Ruek Mine. They clamber out of the darkness and get move to just within 10ft of you all and use their Weird Insight on Amiz and Thelanis, who both make DC 14 WIS Saves or are forced to telepathically reveal something about themselves. Amiz: 18 Thelanis: 6

(Have to repaste that last post so the dice rolls show up.)

Amiz: 12 Thelanis: 8

Thelanis sees an image of her kneeling in front of the satue of Araevos and the Nothics telepathically s******, "The Warlock thinks she can sacrifice one patron for another? Fool! She will learn that down here only madness reigns!"

(What memory do the Nothics take from Amiz?)

You all are up, the Nothics are within 10ft of Amiz and Thelanis.

Valar will draw his sword and engage the closest Nothic: attack 22, damage 9

Amiz swings twice with his battleaxe, almost felling Nothic 1. Draíocht finishes off that Nothic. Thelanis steps forward to Nothic 2 and hits with her sword. Then the Nothics press on, 2 goes for Thelanis, while 3 goes for Valar. Nothic 4 stands back and its Rotting Gaze focusses on Amiz:

Nothic 2 Claw 1 against Thelanis Attack: 11 Damage: 10 Slashing

Nothic 2 Claw 2 against Thelanis Attack: 18 Damage: 9 Slashing

Nothic 3 Claw 1 against Valar Attack: 11 Damage: 13 Slashing

Nothic 3 Claw 2 against Valar Attack: 7 Damage: 12 Slashing

Amiz makes a DC 13 CON Save: 23 or takes 12 Necrotic Damage, half on a success.

You all are up, Nothic 2 and 3 are engaged with Thelanis and Valar, while Nothic 4 stays back and strikes out at others with it's Rotting Gaze

Sorry for barebones post am in hospital for minor issue 

Hexblade curse nothing 2 elder itch blast ac 19, 13 damage, one nat 1. 

Valar continues his fight with Nothic 3-Attack 17, damage 8; attack 23, damage 9

[[ Quick question: with where it came, I assume Draíocht had the 4-hour long rest? Yes or no? (Mainly for figuring out how to manage the spell slots.) ]]

Draíocht growls at the nothics. With a swift motion he wildshapes into a dire wolf and lunges at nothic 3.

Bite @ Nothic 3
To-Hit: max(16,12) + 5 = 21
Damage: 6+5+3 = 14 piercing
DC STR Save 13 or prone
