Dicing with Death Episode 073

Days 7 to 14
Georg, Reptar and Orwell spend a week at Pourvin's Log Cabin at the edge of Lake Mysterium. During this time Georg learns some spells from the nudest Wizard.

Spells Already Had: Enlarge/Reduce (5 pages), Diction (2 pages), Feather Fall (6 pages), Colorspray (6 pages), Read Magic (2 Pages), Detect Magic (6 pages) Spells Learnt: Comprehend Languages (4 pages), Conjure Spell Components (1 page), Spells Failed: Identify, Burning Hands, Georg: 2/2 HP, Reptar: 16/16 HP, Orwell 7/7 HP.

Georg asks Pourvin why he is out in the wilderness. Pourvin tells about how society is so meddlesome.

Pourvin tells Georg that Arcadia isn't as organised and formalised schools of magic as they have in Solum. But Pourvin reveals that there is a flying Fortress in the sky, supported by zeppelins. Anyone is allowed in, if they can get there on their own accord. It moves about, it prefers to hover over Eridon, avoiding Dragon areas. Pourvin suggests, if he doesn't have the fly spell, Georg could head North West into the Tetherwinds and tame a griffon and fly to the Fortress.

Pourvin warns of Bullywugs and Alligators in the Crystal Run river on the way to Shirebrook.

Day 15
Georg, Reptar, & Orwell, walk up 20 feet beside the Crystal Run river northwards.

During the day, Reptar notices a Owlbear drinking water. Georg warns the group to keep out of sight of the beast and make a detour to avoid it.

They camp at sunset. Georg takes first watch. He hears a pair of howls, that sound quite close.
