Finding himself without a weapon, Corvin instead lays a hand on Tallis, casting Cure Wounds (third level) to heal him for 20 hp, then directs his spiritual weapon to attack the monster again.

Attack: 19 Damage: 12 (Force damage)

(Tallis can use his reaction to perform an attack at the brashest)

“Burn to ash” fire bolt 

Attack: 11 Damage: 11

Quote from Flyingmatthew >>

Tallis' Longsword strikes the Barghest twice, while it is still standing it looks ready to drop.

(Tallis you character sheet says you are at 26 HP. Did you apply the heal 19 that Corvin gave you? Post 193)

 (There must have been an error with DDB. I added them when I was healed, but they never took. Subtracting the 13dmg I took shortly after and adding the 20 Corvin just dropped as well. Also, using short swords for two-weapon fightiny for the Light property.)

 (Extra Attack: 24 for 11. At a +10 atk mod, this really is not a good fight.)

Corvin's Spiritual weapon finishes off the Barghest. 

Everyone gets 366 XP (I'll add it to Baik's sheet.

 It will take a couple of rounds for Corvin and Velmine to retrieve their weapons (warhammer and thrown dagger)

 I was just able to add the 19 and 20 back to your sheet. Did you hit apply change when you were done?

Your character sheet has Haxblade - Longsword, listed. I assumed that is your main weapon and the shortsword is in your off hand. Also I am a little confused about the packblade abd haxblade. Are they one and the same, the hexblade a more advanced packblade?

After Corvin and Velmine collect their weapons...

 Time is the Doomvault:   0 Days 0 Hours 7 Minute 

Baik (52/77) - 1/2 rages and 1/2 fourth level spells. 

Corvin (66/66) - 1/4 first level spell, 1/3 second level spell, 1/3 third level spells, 1/3 fourth level spells. 1/5 Embodiment of the Law.

Eiren (63/63) - 1/2 Bladesong 

Tallis (61/61) - 1/3 first level spells (it wasn't marked)

Velmine (55/55*57) - Riposte 1/1. Bag of Tricks 1/3.

Xavier (65/65) - 2/4 first level spells. 

 Are you planning on heading north again 8n the same order?

Well this place is going to prove interesting and exciting with the strange creatures inside.  Let’s continue on heading north whenever possible

“I’ll stay at the front,” says Eiren. Qu’oth, the raven, calls from above with a hoarse croak, and maintains a watch from the higher vantage point. 

“Qu’oth is having trouble seeing in the dim light. If it’s all going to be like this down here, I should take the next opportunity to change his form into something more useful in low lighting.”

(I'm baaaack!) Baik shudders. He tries not to rage, but these were dire circumstances. He pants for a bit, having not raged in a long time, and points north.

The party continues north and after clearing the group of three big trees you come to the northern part to cavern. To the east you see...

A ten-foot-diameter circle of runes and clear quartz fragments is set into the floor. Within the circle, a luminous white mist shimmers, obscuring what lies beyond. You recognize this a one of the White Gates Syranna was talking about. (https://www.dndbeyond.com/forums/d-d-beyond-general/play-by-post/27661-dead-in-thay-game-thread?comment=16)

To the northwest the cavern opens up into a new cavern. 

So... Does.. Anyone want to use the gate before we head on? Im not ready to die.

Death should not be feared, and from the sound of our benefactor May not be permenant.  Nothing in this place has scared me yet into wanting to flee forever.  Stay strong everyone, and let’s continue

 (Sorry, it was imported from an old campaign. DDB Character Sheet doesn't recognize a weapon enhanced as a "Hex Weapon", so it doesn't default to my CHA mod for atk and dmg. My last campaign had a Longsword, so I made a custom weapon for that. Using Enhanced Pact of the Blade, I can summon any weapon and have it act as my Hex Weapon, my spellcasting focus, and a +1 magic weapon all at once. First fight it was a greatsword, but then it shrunk to a short sword to be used in tandem with a mundane short sword in two-weapon fighting.)

We should use our keys to see if we can even pass this gate, or at least learn the name of what area is. On the other side

 Eiren nods in agreement. “I’m game to press on, especially if we can get through this gate.”

Eiren holding his glyph key approaches to White Gate. As he enters the gate the mist lifts and he can see into another cavern filled with trees and turf. He knows that the new zone is called "The Forest of Illusion", and that while he is standing in the gate the rest of the party will be able to pass through.

 (You should be able to just add a regular greatsword/longsword/shortsword/whatever to your character sheet, then select it and hit the checkboxes for pact weapon and hex weapon and have it give you all the right mods now. Works fine on my hex blade).

Standing in the gate, Eiren shakes his head. “This all seems a little too easy...but come on through, then,” he says to the rest as Qu’oth flies through to get a lay of the land. 

“Stay on your guard. I’m assuming this place isn’t call the ‘Forest of Illusion’ for no reason.”

Ah, I'm sure it's fine. But keep an eye out for goblins. Those creatures back there? They can become goblins. Forest of Illusion. Sounds like a lot of trickery, so be on guard. 

“Good to know. And if we run into any more of those. barghests, maybe something other than fire spells, eh?” Eiren says wryly to Baik.
