Headache
We picked up the new commision. Turns out a large, suspicious hole was discovered near the well. The people that found it decided it was too scary to investigate, so they simply reported it and left it to us.
We found it easily enough, and yup, it was suspicious. We spiraled down for a bit before ending at a well-delved stone tunnel. It collapsed off to one side, but we saw light to the other. The owl went forward revealing … quaggoths I think they're called. Oh, and a squid faced guy. Or two. Clearly abominations, they attacked the owl and it was show time.
The quaggoths seemed a bit slow, but the squid faces – mind flayers – kept hitting us with these… blasts. They'd knock us out of action a bit. I spent most of the fight drooling, but that isn't too out of the ordinary. It was through extraordinary use of willpower that I was able to do anything at all.
In the end, enough people shook lose of their evil mind-magic, and we were able to defeat all of them (more had showed up). Hell, giant beetle people showed up too with similarly confusing mind-magic.
Tired but alive, we peered deeper into the darkness before us…
