I spent a bit of down time getting to know the local wildlife. I made friends with an owl who is fond of mice.
We set back out into the old city. The plan was to clear the butchers shop. I was scouting ahead, but unfortunately, I was surprised by a pair of ghouls. Worse still, more rushed to exploit the confusion resulting in a general melee. Najila put an enchantment upon me that stayed their blows until we were able to deal with them. Poor Logru seemed to have been terrified and locked up at some point before recovering.
Next, we pushed to clear out the stables. Here a mass of wargs flanked us. Najila was isolated and was at her wits end to duck and wave whilst Daery's, Logru and I turned the flank. Many coins were found, but we were compelled to return to rest up.
Finally, we consulted with Meepo to discover what foul beasts awaited us at the warehouse. Turns out it was 2 ogres. Not fully trusting him, we had my new owl friend fly over to scout the area. He lent me his senses; Meepo's story checked out. We had a plan to lure the ogres into a melee, but things went sideways and we ended up having to do a beat down. Logru took quite the beating, but remained standing, much to his credit.
We headed back to lick our wounds.
