We find our flock deep underground, making camp with a group of Svirfneblin traveling merchants. Sliver of Straw took the first watch, and made idle conversation with Basinni, learning how she and Kregluck met. Rester took the second watch, and talked with Berthmurs, learning about all of the wonderful fungi of the Underdark. Rester went so far as to even try a sample Berthmurs had on him. Danian finished up the watch. After their evening rest, Sliver of Straw talked with Kregluck about possibly stopping by on the flock's way back up to discuss possible trade routes. Kregluck was interested in hearing more. The flock bid the Slabnose party farewell and began to head deeper into the Underdark. | We find our flock deep underground, making camp with a group of Svirfneblin traveling merchants.

Danian finished up the watch and was allowed to draw a card from a mysterious deck. The card she drew had the image of a devil on it and erupted into flames moments after.

As the tunnel they were following began to widen, Rester spotted something odd hiding in the stalactites just up ahead. Rester managed to sneak up towards it and saw what looked like a brain with a beak and barbed tentacles. It noticed Rester, let out a screech, and fled away and deeper into the tunnels. Eventually, our flock finally came out of the tunnel and into a massive cavern so large they could not see the ceiling or the opposite side. Cautiously, the flock followed Phil's directions. After a few minutes of walking, someone heard movement off to their left. Dania, using a Darkvision spell, investigated and saw a white spider, skulking about and slowly heading towards them. The cave fisher was no match for our flock and was easily dealt with. Unfortunately, the sound of running footfalls was now headed towards them from the path ahead. It turns out the footfalls were a Duergar hunting party, and they were willing to buy the corpse of the cave fisher from the flock. Committing caveway robbery, or so the flock was told, they sold it for 25gp. The leader of the hunting party offered to take the flock back to their encampment and Rughaed. | As the tunnel they were following began to widen, Rester spotted something odd hiding in the stalactites just up ahead.
