Revenge is Best Served Cold

   Gijigume is content to pay the regular price.

(I don't imagine anyone wants Fah'lin's Chain Shirt but its available. I'll try and sell it if no one wants it.)

Any more purchases to make while you are in town? If not then it's time to leave. You've all had a long rest and are fully healed.

Travelling at normal overland rate will take a bit more than a day to get to the vicinity of Cragmaw Castle. Then you will have to search around to find it it the forest where it is hidden.

There is a 1 in 10 chance of a random encounter per day in these parts. On day one of your trek you follow a road in the morning and at noon you will then have to move through wilderness hills. Encounter 1

Well look at that, you meet something. A Perception or Survival check (your choice) to see if you are surprised.

   Gijigume is wandering along, free as a bird, when he might notice something. . .

OOC: Either check has a +2 modifier, so 15.

Igneous has enjoyed the effects of long rest and is prepared for whatever the world has to come his way

Perception 17

11  You see a most bizarre and chilling sight, a middle age man in wizard robes with a retinue of 12 zombies. Four of them in pairs are pulling carts and in the carts are bodies in various stages of decomposition. He sees you... you see him. Your groups are about 50’ apart.

"I don't suppose that's a friendly neighborhood necromancer. Just making his rounds. Delivering his grave dust shipments..."

(Shall we avoid 'em?)

Igneous shows mixed signs about how to feel, "he hasn't caused us trouble so, I say we let him go on his way"

 You got a good sight of the carts; 'various stages of decomposition' is a little vague. What you see are bodies ranging from skeletal to fresh. Those you wouldn't even know are dead except for the total lack of movement and the oozing wounds.

Thar having had his long rest has restored and prepared his spells.  Seeing the approaching man and 'friends' he displays some caution readying his new staff just in case though not threateningly.

Perception:  8

"Truly, this is an unusual land," Aeliarin notes with wonder.
