in which a group of Mites tries to rob the characters during the night
It was clear that the walking corpse really wanted the Stag Lord at his side, so Cardot promised him he would take care of it. The corpse told him he would regret it if he did not pursue the task, and went back to where it came, below the waters of the Shrike River.
The characters then explored the area and found, among the debris some distance down the river, a badly mangled corpse pierced by several hours. They buried the remains and prayed to Cayden Cailean so that his soul would reach the Heavenly Tavern.
Then they crossed the river and found, near the blackened remains of the burnt cottage, a ledger with entries to all the travelers that had used Davik Nettle's bridge in the past year. The last entry detailed how the Stag Lord and some of his men had offered Davik their "protection" in exchange for half of his profits, and how Davik had run them with the aid of his hounds. There were also some entrances about a woman called Constance Devine, who apparently had used the bridge regularly in the past months, and about a wine merchant from Restov who had crossed the bridge only 3 weeks before.
They then proceeded to explore and map the area. During the night, a small group of the miserable creatures known as Mites assaulted their camp. The pathetic creatures tried to rob the characters of some of their valuables but, even with the advantage of surprise, they were easily defeated by the group.

Session 6: Greenbelt Sightseeing
in which the characters explore most of the northern and eastern Greenbelt
Strange encounter
While exploring the woods near the Temple of the Elk, the characters meet some curious reptiles that Kii identified as Carbuncles. He established a telepathic connection with them and the Carbuncles managed to convince him to surrender all the candies and little foodstuff he was carrying as future gifts for the forest feys... Just as the carbuncles were pointing the characters towards Tuskgutter's lair, they shrieked in terror as a strange blob of light approached the pool where they were bathing and hit them with several bolts of lightning... The heroes decided to flee riding their horses and had to sacrifice one to the strange glowing creature...
Both the carbuncles and the ball of light creature are interesting mysteries that the group decided could well be worth researching.
Tuskgutter
The following day, the heroes investigated the area where Tuskgutter had been seen. Gam'el'gar followed the tracks of the boar to its lair. The boar was not in its den, so the heroes used again the bear traps found at the bandit camp to ambush the dangerous boar... Having climbed on nearby trees, the wait for the boar was sometimes unbearable and exhausting, but several hours later, the characters had the boar´s head in a saddlebag.
The "Merchant"
On their way back to Oleg´s the characters helped someone that had fallen victim to a pit trap in the forest. Rime Marner, the person in the trap, introduced himself as a merchant in need, but soon after being rescued, he confided to Cardot that he was really one of the bandits that had not been at the Thorn River Camp when the heroes captured Kressle. In exchange for not pressing charges against him and for buying some bottles of wine at a discount, Rime told them about the Stag Lord, his bandits, and the password phrase they used to recognise each other.
Back at Oleg´s
Approaching Oleg´s, the characters met Breeg Orlivanch, a grumpy hunter that lives in the western Narlmarches and that was traveling to Oleg´s to sell his last fur cargo. He was quite unfriendly with the characters and did not talk much.
In the Trading Post the characters, after showing Tuskgutter´s head, were received as small heroes by Svetlana, and even Oleg managed to smile at them. Jhod was also happy to know about the Temple of Erastil, and Kesten handed them a heavy bag of gold coins for having captured the bandits. Even more, he also gave them a new charter from the Swordlords of Restov, trusting them with the defeat of the Stag Lord:
Exploring the plains east of Oleg´s Trading Post
The characters then decided to start investigating the hills known as the Kamelands, in preparation for their approach to the Stag Lord´s Fort, and because they suspected the treasure map found in the Spider´s Lair pointed them to those hills. They also paid a second visit to Bokken, who happily gave them two of his potions after mentioning that he had not seen a single bandit in the last week.
To the east of Bokken´s Hut, the characters met a bunch of creepy hulking humanoids that followed them during their exploration of the area. Whenever the characters tried to approach them, the creatures would escape. Gam'el'gar tracked them to their lair, a filthy area of mudpools, but the characters did not understand their language, so they left some food gifts to the creatures and left before the creatures proved too aggressive.
One day later, they met a kind of midget gnome. The poor creature seemed miserable and was sobbing and crying. In Sylvan, he told Kii that he had lost his lucky coin to the filthy mites that lived to the southwest, and said he had been plagued by bad luck since he lost the coin... Indeed, a small rain cloud seemed to be following the creature... The characters promised him they would try to find his lucky coin, but convinced him that adventuring was too dangerous for him and that they did not need his help (he did not seem to understand that the heroes preferred to stay dry)... the bad luck of the creature seemed to rub a bit on the characters because the following night a horrible thunderstorm buffeted their tents and they could hardly rest.
The northern Kamelands
The heroes then finally started exploring the hills known as the Kamelands. They easily found the site marked by the treasure map found at the Spider´s Lair, and followed the Shrike River looking for a way to cross it.
After two days of exploration and river following, they reached a broken bridge with what seemed like a toll house burnt to the ground. A sign told them to ring a nearby bell to call the toll keeper... Cardot soon complied and, immediately, the group felt the temperature drop down and a rotting walking corpse raised from the river bottom and started walking on the water, ominously approaching the characters: "Where is my tormentor?" - he said- "Throw the Stag Lord´s body into the river that I may look upon his death and rejoice, or join me instead"...

Session 5: Battling the Bear
In which the heroes explore the Temple of the Elk and defeat its fearsome guardian.
After trying a peaceful interaction with the guardian bear, and prodded by a dream interpreted by Cardot as sent by his god Cayden Cailean, the heroes decide to fight and kill the beast as a last resort solution.
The plan is the following: the PCs will form a line defended at the flanks by the traps found at the bandit camp; Gam'el'gar will bear the brunt of the attack while the other heroes help him flanking the bear and trying to attract it to fall in one of the traps. Trapping the bear proves a risky move, as the bear is cunning enough to manoeuvre around them and Gam'el'gar almost falls victim to one of them as he hastily tries to set it up as the bear charges towards him...
For the first time in their exploration of the Greenbelt, the heroes feel death near their necks, but a brave defense by Gam´el´gar helped by Kii and Cardot and a fortunate combination of the bear fumbling a claw attack hitting itself, and a very precise double shot by Am the monk leave the guardian bear dead on the ground. The beast emits a sigh of relief surprisingly human-like as it collapses and, under the astonished view of the characters, the bear transforms first into an incredibly old human with a look of peace in his eyes, then into a skeleton that quickly crumbles to dust. Soon after the bear's death, the entire shrine seems to grow more vibrant and colorful, and the water in the pool at the entrance to the temple becomes crystal clear.
As the heroes take a rest, one questions remains unanswered: what or who was exactly the bear?
After searching the temple, the characters decide to finish exploring the area of the Narlmarches surrounding it.
XP:
- 800 (defeating the bear guardian of the Temple of the Elk)
- 100 (exploring the hex with the Temple of the Elk)

Session 4: Temple of the Elk
They then started exploring the forest west of their location and found two strange nests at the top of a giant fir tree. One of the nests resembled a little puppet house, and Kii mentioned he was sure they must be the dwellings of the mischievous fey that had been playing pranks on the characters. Am started climbing up the tree to check the houses, only to fall victim to one more prank from the invisible fairies. The characters then decided to leave some gifts at the bottom of the fir tree and went back to Oleg's.
At Oleg they talked with Jhod and tried to convince him to join them in the search of the temple. Jhod was wary of the characters and turned down their request, but offered them information on how to find the temple from the ruins of the forest which, from the description of the characters, he said must be a shrine to Erastil. With this information, the characters went further than ever before into the forest and found the abandoned temple of Erastil. As they approached the temple, an angry grizzly bear came out of the entrance and roared menacingly at them... The bear seemed to have some kind of uncanny sense to detect the characters as they entered the temple grounds, but did not pursue them when they moved outside the column circle that marked the temple's extension.
The characters withdrew to their camp to discuss on how to proceed and what options they had concerning the bear. The woods around them were dense and mysterious, and they got many a glimpse of several majestic elks roaming the forest.
XP:
- 100 (exploring forest hex with fairy nest)

Session 3: Spider Hunt
The characters decide to be careful and bait the spider out of its lair using some food from Oleg's Trading Post and the bear traps captured to the bandits. While waiting for the traps to have effect, they explore the area north of the spider's lair and met Bokken, a local eccentric and potion maker, who lives in the area, quite happy to be away from civilization...
In the ensuing conversation, Kii tries to have Bokken teach him some alchemy tricks, but the hermit is not convinced because of his weird looks and turns down the offer, although not entirely. Also, Bokken mentions a younger brother who beat him and his mother and fled to the wilderness, and requests the help of the characters to find some fangberries, an important ingredient for his potions; Bokken promises them a discount for his potions if they bring the fangberries, and exchanges one potion for a recipe to brew beer in Cayden Cailean style.
Back near the spider's lair, the critter has not taken the bait, so the characters decide to use live chickens and wait nearby and when the spider is caught in one of the bear traps, deftly hidden by the Ranger Gam'el'Gar, they rush to the attack; the spider almost manages to escape back to its lair, but Cardot arrives just in time to show it the "wonders" of beer tankards... pity she'll get quite a hangover...
The session ends with Kii exploring the Spider tunnels and finding in its larder (a big cavern the size of a small room) the corpse of a bandit wearing one of the Stag Lord's silver amulets; in his left foot, Kii finds also what looks like an old treasure map...

About me ....
My short name is Kiire Jalka Varjoisa Maanalainen, but my friends call me Kii or Maani .
I was born in Dwimovel, in the Darklands.
My father Zarzuket is an alchemist, so I grew up in a house filled up with magical extracts, potions and oils. Probably because of this I always felt a special affinity with magic (trait Magical knack, class Magus).
My mother's mother, Trig, is a surface gnome, so I am 3/4 Svirfneblin and 1/4 surfaceling.
From my 'surface' blood I got my blunt hairs and the skin color and few other characteristics.
Since my childhood my mother Majet always told me stories about the blue sky, the green forests, the blowing wind, the big open sees, a world full of colors, and when I've got grown up enough, I convinced my parents to send me to the surface, to the big metropolis of Absalon, the nearest exit to the surface from Dwimovel, to stay with my grandmother and my aunt's family.
Wandering around for Absalon I learned many things, and I've got an insane passion for traveling. When I discovered the monumental Pathfinder Lodge and its scope, I started hanging around in the area, trying to get as many information about the Lodge as I could. I managed to meet a member, a trader from Qadira, named Abd al malik, who take me under his protection and started tutoring me and teaching me things about the wonders of Golarion, about Qadira and about their traditions (trait Desert Shadow). I also started training with the scimitar which got my preferred weapon and I got captivated by the Dervish Dance which I started exercising all the time I could.
After some time I discovered that his only goal in tutoring me was to get my trust and to use me to discover the secret path to Dwimovel, maybe for using it for a new trade route or for something worse ....
He didn't take well my 'quick look' to his secret documentation and my getting few souvenirs (between others my training scimitar and some maps) from his home,
so I decided that was time for me to change air, leave Absalom and to start exploring the world, but where to start ?
Nivi Rhombodazzle and Cayden Cailean came to my help:
a cousin of my mother, Roomalaiskatollinen Pappi, cleric of Cayden Cailean, wrote to my parents asking for advise.
Near his home town, Jovvox, located in the area of the River Kingdoms, recently have seen an increased presence of feys and some other Darklands denizens. It could be a new exit way from the Darklands, and therefore the feys coming from the Court of Ether, or maybe the fey are coming directly from the First World.
A strong activity of the dark feys from the Court of Ether would mean big troubles !
Knowing that the observation of the Court of Ether is one of the main concern of the Svirfneblin, he decided to ask for help writing to my parents.
My father, knowing my love and my wish of exploring the surface world, and trusting me as agent of the Svirfneblin, gave me as a mission to go to my mother cousin in Jevvox, to speak with him, collect all possible information and investigate the situation, reporting monthly back to him using the usual ways.
I also need to keep the eyes open concerning gnomes in danger of getting bleached and I have to report any issue about this both to my father, through my grandma, and to my cousin. They take very seriously the assignment of fighting the bleaching in any possible way.
After discussing with my cousin Room, he suggested to go to Pitax and search a friend of him, also cleric of Cayden Cailean. He probably could help me in finding contacts to get ready for my mission in the Stolen Lands.
