Baeshra will give a roar and transform into his spider form and take a bite if the creature again.

Attack: 20 Damage: 9

that'll do it for the small one next to Baeshra!  Although your spider form takes 4 acid damage before the creature dies.

Nyx lines up the one next to Whistler, shuddering as she see the others being burnt with acid.

OCC: Hand Crossbow Attack: 9 Damage: 5

Sneak Damage 11

 The Sneak damage is enough to take out that one, nicely done!  One left, next to Ireniana!

Umbriel will shift his Hex over to the remaining ooze, and throw two Eldritch Blasts at it (with two of those, I feel so much more useful!)

Attack: 12 Damage: 9

Attack: 9 Damage: 9

First attack Hex damage, second attack Hex damage: 1, 6

Seeing that her sword isn't doing any good, she is doing to disengage and move next to the horse at the bottom. 

Umbriel's second blast with Hex damage is enough to finish off the last one!

Nicely done, all!

Back to the Long Rest?

(Yes, must sleep)

(Indeed, a long rest would be delightful!)

Whistler is down. 

Rosie sees Whistler fall and casts Cure Wounds for 8.

The remainder of the Long Rest is completed.  It's now early evening of the same day, the 20th of Flamerule.

Droop looks through the cart for arrows, then looks pitifully at Ireniana: "Droop almost no arrows?  Ireena have any?"  Droop digs around in his pouch and holds out 4 ball bearings.  "We trade!"

Here's a whole map.  Where to now?

By the time the others are stirring, Umbriel is sitting on the edge of the small ledge to the northwest, deep in thought. As he becomes aware of the group waking, he turns and suggests a plan. "Now that we know how to deal with the flameskull, it may behoove us to head back to that chamber first, then work our way back to this entrance, clearing the mine as we go. That way we're fresh when facing the maniacal undead menace. I'm open to suggestions, though."

Baeshra nods, thinking through some new options of magic granted by his increased connection to the world.

That's a good idea.  Which way are you going to go to get to the Flameskull?

Umbriel would propose backtracking to the pool where Baeshra found the dead wizard, then heading due east.

 Lyngheid agrees.

Umbriel, only needing half the rest of everyone else, manages to attune to the Spider Staff, and identify the coin as a Feather Token.  He identifies the bolts as Walloping Ammunition Crossbow Bolts, +1.

 The group makes it's way back to the pool without incident.  Heading esat, they listen at the door door and hear gruff voices speaking Goblin.  Droop (and anyone else who speaks Goblin) can hear that the voices are talking about how hungry they are.

Lyngheid walks down the stairs with a wide grin on her face.

In goblin she calls out, " Right! You lot! The mine is under new management! If your peckish theres a mess of drow and spiders to the north. But any of you that are still here after 30 minutes are going to get squashed just like your drow boss."

Intimidation: 18

Baeshra will give a good dino roar to back up her words. (help for intimidation?)

Good idea Kestell. Nyx isn't on that picture because she's already hiding near the stairs waiting to shoot if anything aggressive comes through that door.
