Storm King's Thunder

Ink helps Flint. 

Quill keeps watch.

"I've made enough graves, have fun" with that Matrix heads to his quarters and works on some sketches for his Crownsguard plan

Crownsguard will offer his assistance.

Don climbs down to help. He is obviously exhausted, but he helps however he can. He goes around for a few minutes and takes a stone from the ground and casts light on it. Then moves around and does it again. He spends a few minutes until the area is lit dimly.

"I did try to talk to them.. I really did."

Two hours into your task, you are nearing completion of the burial cairn to Flint’s knowledgeable specifications, when Quill flies down to Ink in alarm and telepathically communicates a single concept: giant.

Two hours into your task, you are nearing completion of the burial cairn to Flint’s knowledgeable specifications, when Quill flies down to Ink in alarm and telepathically communicates a single concept: giant. 

 "Darn it," Ink whispers. "Giant or giants incoming." 

He looks up to Quill and asks her to show him and he slips into her sight. 

Quill quickly flies up and out over the moonlit landscape, and there, now a couple hundred yards from your position, a heavily armored giant has emerged from the woods and is heading straight for you! 

"Ink... can you see through Quill's eyes... is it Harshnag?"

Ink, still in Quill's senses, says aloud, "Flint, remember how fire giants were looking for adamantine? We're covered in the stuff! Two hundred yards and charging in!"

Ink has Quill move to the limits of their connection so that she can hopefully see what TYPE of Giant it is and if it is indeed Harshnag. 

/ Quill's Perception Check 13 

It’s hard to tell in the moonlight, but you have only so far encountered one type of giant that wear full plate armor. Also, it is carrying a copy of your adamantine rods. 

"Fire giant!" Ink yells.

// Please let me know when it's within 120' of Ink.

You can now clearly see the giant in the silvery moonlight, still at least a hundred yards away to the west but closing fast, running with earthshaking steps. 

// What is everyone doing? Staying on the ground, making for the ship? //

Don rushes up the ladder into the ship and when he gets there he quickly downs 2 health potions.

If we can all get to the ladder and away from the giant let's do that. Flint starts double timing to the ladder, leaving his prized wheelbarrow behind.

If there is time and the wheelbarrow is within 30 feet of the ship AND it weighs no more than 10 pounds Don will use Mage Hand to pick it up and lift it into the ship.

"Last ones up grab th' bottom rung!"

Crownsguard follows behind, “Has anyone noticed that we seem to attract trouble? I have noticed this. It is highly improbable.”

The wheelbarrow weighs significantly more than 10 lbs; Don’s mage hand cannot budge it. 

// Everyone go ahead and make two Strength or Dexterity (Athletics) checks to climb the ladder. //

Flint is dashing so no guidance

Athletics (str): 10 & 14

1-6 seconds

Ink, last one to reach the ladder, grabs the bottom rung sends a message to Captain Delsephine.... "CLIMB AS FAST AS YOU CAN AND GET MOVING (insert direction opposite the giant) - FIRE GIANT INCOMING!"

7-12 seconds

Then, when he can, Ink will cast fog cloud (@ 2nd level) creating a 40' radii fog cloud towards the side of the ship facing the fire giant and slightly below.

13-18 seconds

As he continues to climb, Ink takes a bead of sweat from his brow and concentrates, the ilse rune flashes and the bead of sweat freezes. Ink touches his brow with the ice and is immediately covered in an icy mantle.
