Earlier... Drake Menda twisted the key into the guts of the rusted lock. It crunched more than clicked, but it opened. He shouldered his way in from the cold, and that was when the smell hit him -- the pungent aroma of sweaty socks and... Drake sniffed the air. Pickles?

Walk a Web of Spiders, Chpt 1
"Welcome to Davis Bradford Middle School, Miss Leaver." Mrs. Pete said. "Thanks," Kadyn replied. She stood at the front of the room, trying hard to keep her nerves in check. She never liked public speaking, but that wasn't the main reason for her queasy stomach and thumping heart this time. This time, Kadyn was terrified … Continue reading Walk a Web of Spiders, Chpt 1
6th of Kythorn, 1492 DR – Exploring Maykle, (Session 75):
Back at Donnelly's "Umm... is he okay?" "He'll be fine," Lilvari replied. "Yeah, okay well, he's bleeding all over my floor. I don't want to sound like a jerk, but do you think you can..." The young woman nodded over to the direction of Nazzeth who was face down on the floor. Many of Nazzeth's … Continue reading 6th of Kythorn, 1492 DR – Exploring Maykle, (Session 75):
6th of Kythorn, 1492 DR – Lair of the Dragon, (Session 74):
The black dragon stared down at Dare with both amusement and curiosity. Though the chamber they stood in was enormous, the tremendous size of the dragon made it seem as if there was no room at all -- no room to move; no room to breathe. Dare risked a quick glance upward past the dragon … Continue reading 6th of Kythorn, 1492 DR – Lair of the Dragon, (Session 74):
6th of Kythorn, 1492 DR – The Keeper of the Hold, (Session 73):
Hallway of Death "What do we do?" Dare shouted over the explosive sound of stone slamming down on stone. He was holding his thigh. Blood trickled through his fingers and down his leg. Ahead of him was the hallway lined with whirring blades. Behind him, the stone wall edged ever closer. "Any ideas?" "I have … Continue reading 6th of Kythorn, 1492 DR – The Keeper of the Hold, (Session 73):
6th of Kythorn, 1492 DR – A Secret to ‘Puzzle Over’, (Session 72):
Onward to Maykle They awoke at first light -- cramped and sore from spending the night inside the small secret room -- and were eager to be on their way to Maykle. Hopefully, today's journey wouldn't be as bad as yesterday's. Mystic sat next to the chest in the middle of the ten-by-ten room, lost … Continue reading 6th of Kythorn, 1492 DR – A Secret to ‘Puzzle Over’, (Session 72):
5th of Kythorn, 1492 DR – The Shimmering Tower, (Session 71):
Watch Your Step "What is this place?" Mystic asked. They were on the ground floor of a cylindrical tower made of dark stone. Not a single source of light could be seen, yet the tower was still dimly lit. It was as if the natural daylight from outside permeated the bricks themselves. "Not sure," Nazzeth … Continue reading 5th of Kythorn, 1492 DR – The Shimmering Tower, (Session 71):
5th of Kythorn, 1492 DR – Hidden Dangers, (Session 70):
Beware The Shroud "From what's left of him, I'd say it's Yesper." Dare opened his eyes. The words were distant, yet his keen sense of hearing picked them up easily. At first, he didn't quite remember where he was. Weak light shined in through boarded up windows. A little more than a dozen men, women … Continue reading 5th of Kythorn, 1492 DR – Hidden Dangers, (Session 70):
4th of Kythorn, 1492 DR – Lost to the Mist, (Session 69):
Madam Eva and the Tarokka Weapons raised, the Vistani edged closer to Team Ramrod. At the last moment, a familiar voice called out. "At ease my friends. These are my guests."

Like the others, he was dressed in bright … Continue reading 4th of Kythorn, 1492 DR – Lost to the Mist, (Session 69):
4th of Kythorn, 1492 DR – In Search of the Vistani, (Session 68):
Hunted by a Nightmare Team Ramrod awoke early the next morning. With any luck, they'd find the Vistani and Dare would have answers regarding his hag sister before the day was through.

Dare wasn't the only one seeking … Continue reading 4th of Kythorn, 1492 DR – In Search of the Vistani, (Session 68):
