Into the Sewers

Our intrepid adventurers met two more companions outside the walls of Johkan after their discussions with the Moonless Tribe's Sharp Tooth, then returned to the site of Krag Blackhand's disappearance, after a brief trouble at the town gates when they returned after sundown.

At the site of Krag's last known location, blood spots, torn clothing and eventually a blood trail were uncovered. These led to a long abandoned public latrine. The latrine, a fine example of architecture no longer constructed in Jokhan, was dark inside at dusk. Selwyn led the search for further clues, disturbing 6 Dire Rats. These were easily beaten off, with a thunderous clap of magic after one took a chunk of Grunt Jr's knee. Following the Dire Rats to a ramp constructed out of a collapsed floor of the latrine led down to the sewers below.

The sewers are, it turns out, of a style of stonework construction not seen in Jokhan today. At the first intersection, examination of the stone work uncovered writing on the wall "Not this one, the other one." and opposite, a bag of 10 platinum behind a hidden stone fitting. Further exploration uncovered a number of rats and a hasty retreat from a pair of Grey Oozes. The Oozes were noticed by Lucky Luke in time and easily defeated by Selwyn's steady rain of ranged fire bolts as the group retreated beyond the range of the Ooze's slow advance. A couple of necklaces were recovered from one of the Ooze's remains.

Later, as the group wandered on, those in the rear noticed a Goblin, Grozzy, following them. Savario jumped Grozzy and clubbed him to within an inch of his life. Upon waking Grozzy convinced the group to allow him to live and to lead the way to the Slergar Kingdom, the kingdom of Goblin king Big Flurx.
