Urgala nods, then takes the platinum. "Thank you. Yes, you are correct."
She thinks for a moment before adding. "It sounds like you might run into some more giants. One of my former adventuring companions has a Giant Slayer Greatsword that I could talk him into letting you borrow if one of your party might find that useful." And she turns her head to look at Whistler.
(Due to a few changes of spells with Tasha's stuff) Before they leave, Baeshra will look around for a few things that he needs for his spells.
(Let me know what, if anything he'd be able to get ahold of, specially marked sticks, bones, or similar tokens worth at least 25 gp; a feather, tuft of fur, and fish tail inside a gilded acorn worth at least 200 gp; a gilded flower worth at least 300 gp; and diamonds worth 300 gp, which the spell consumes)
Whistler upon hearing the words "Giant" and "Great" in the same sentence imagines his current sword, bigger than the tallest building he has ever seen and nods with excitement before foaming at the beak.

After inquiring around, you are able to find the the specially marked sticks worth 25 gp at the apothecary and 100 gold worth of diamonds. For the gilded acorn and flower you are directed to a shop in Everlund called "Spellbound".

Urgala grins, "I thought ye might be! I'll have a letter for you to take to him in the morning. Names Harthos Zymorven, and he lives in Zymorven Hall, tis on the Rauvin Road northwest of Silverymoon."
The party settles down for the night, and it passes uneventfully.
Morning dawns on the 28th of Flamerule and the party sets out, heading to Everlund.
(Anything else the night before or the morning of? What's the plan with the wagon? What pace are you traveling at?)
(Just the sticks for now, then.) Baeshra would ride in the wagon pulled by the two mules and set and pretty good pace for the first half day, trying to get away from the town before more giants come, but slow to a normal pace after that.
After waking up, Ireniana will make a Cloud rune on her shield and a fire rune on her sword. Depending on what Droop is doing, she'll either ride in the wagon with him or she'll walk with him.
Alright, I figured out the measuring tool in GIMP, so we'll get pretty accurate distances!
Since we'll be traveling for so many days in a row, I'll change up the encounter rolls so there aren't so many chances for battles to bog down the game.
Droop will start out walking alongside the wagon.
Wow, a very unlikely roll occurred, and you get an encounter right away!
The first half of the day starts at a fast pace. About 3 hours after starting out (shortly before lunch), the road takes you to the base of a small, wooded hill. There's about to be an ambush, everyone roll a Perception check at disadvantage() to see if you notice any indication of it.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Baeshra, Nyx and Umbriel notice the ambush, so no surprise round!
The party is on the road at the base of a small hill. About 50 feet off the road you notice a large grey butt behind a tree. Near there is another tree with a head poking out over the tree about 20 feet off the ground.
Suddenly a loud gutteral roar comes from the other side of the road and two Stone Giants prepare to heave a couple of boulders at the party.
Stone Giants Initiative: 10.
Everyone roll initiative and take your first round turns if greater than the Stone giants. Two are on the right in 3/4 cover at 50 feet. Two are on the left at 60 feet in half cover.

Ireniana Initiative - 15
Ireniana is going to use her bonus action and use Giant's Might grow to a large size creature. She'll draw her longbow and fire a couple of shots at the giant on the right.
Attack: 27 Damage: 11
Giant's Might damage: 6
Second Attack:
Attack: 26 Damage: 11
OOC: I made the attack using Advantage assuming Nyx's Faerie Fire works on the giants.
Ireniana: suddenly grows in size, getting much larger than she was, but not quite as big as the giants. Her first arrow pierces into SG2 for 15 damage, but her second misses!
Nyx runs to get a little room between the giants and her and then casts Faerie Fire at SG1 and SG2. SG1 Dex Save: 17, SG2 Dex Save: 12. SG2 is outlined in glowing purple light, giving attacks on it advantage.
Droop dashes up to a log and fires an arrow at SG3: 10, the arrow flies into the stone giant, doing 6 piercing damage, plus he adds a distracting strike, giving advantage to the next attack on SG3 and doing 6 additional piercing damage, + 5 for Fury of the Small! He then takes a shot at SG4: 22, this one missing!
The Giants: SG1 completes his boulder throw, tossing it at Whistler: 16, but misses! SG2 throws a boulder at Ireniana: 24, and it crashes down next to her in a cloud of dust and pebbles. SG3 throws a boulder at Droop who forgot to hide in his excitement! 16, this one misses too. SG4 laughs at his comrades and shouts "This is how you do it." in giant before tossing a boulder at Droop: 28, and finally the giants manage to hit something, the rock catching Droop on the shoulder and almost crushing him for 31 bludgeoning damage.
The giants stay where they are, content to throw rocks for the time being.

Umbriel Perception: 20

Nyx Initiative 16
Nyx heads 30 feet to the right, spreading the around of the party for the giants to aim at.
"More giants, time to light these guys up like there fire cousins."
OCC: Using Faerie Fire on the two on the right. It has a 20 foot cube radius so does it hit both? They get a Dex save.
