Hook

[Main Cotss] Greenwarden's Whisper V

Plot Synopsis

While Kallax slept, Cosmos noticed some vines slithering across the ground. Cosmos told them to go away, and the vines began to wriggling towards the cave. The rest of the party began exploring the cave with a massive opening. As they entered, their senses were assaulted by a rancid smell of bile and raw meat. They saw the carcasses of many dead animals. Veera was able to feel a psionic presence of the animals that were once brutalized by the Iron Maw. The spirit of Courage resembled a Cat. The spirit of Innocence resembled a Sheep. The spirit of Curiosity resembled a Cat. The spirit of Vitality resembled a Deer. The spirit of Tenacity resembled a Snake. Each of the spirits were reaching out to party as they wanted to leave the place of gore, torture, and pain. Veera attempted to analyze the blood in the cave, but was overwhelmed by the mixtures and quantity of the blood (Dexter style). The embodiments of the animals began to coalesce such that everyone could see them. Veera began to lick the blood concoction and felt terribly ill. Happy tried to give the Deer spirit Freedom vibes, and the Deer imbued him with its energy. Veera went up to the Cat spirit, and the Cat imbued her with its energy. Erinacious began to feel the Sheep, and it imbued them with its energy. Cosmos walked over to the Fox, and Veera walked over to the Cat. All of the party became empowered by each of the spirits.

Happi, being frightened by the carcases and gore, wanted to sleep outside of the cave. The rest of the party joined except for Kallax who ventured further into the cave. He found a plate fragment with something in Ancient Elvish which he took. The party rested, but some people who slept in the gore cave did not have a restful sleep. Veera was not doing very good after licking and drinking some of the blood. She got some sort of pathogen from the blood of the gore cave. Happi cured her, and they began to RP about how Veera needs to be more careful. The party began to leave the biodome. They encounter a tunnel where they are free to leave, but they cannot seem to walk any farther forward. Kallax is the first to turn around and begins to moonwalk towards the exit. He performs an incredible moonwalk as he reaches the exit, Cosmos backflips through the hallway, Happi gets dragged along by the Vine, and the rest of the party walks along backwards. They reach the entrance to the next Biodome, which is guarded by some beavers and otters running a border checkpoint. The party claimed they were illegal immigrants and tried to get in. They were not allowed in. Kallax tries to choke out the beaver and fails miserably, while Cosmos tries to flirt with the otter. They continue to accidentally make innuendo after innuendo, discussing the otter’s abilities in handling tools and his swinging abilities. Fred the otter tries to ask for time off from the beaver, Donny. Donny mentions that the easiest way to get in is through marriage and the second easiest is to apply for a work visa to work in the factory. Fred and Cosmos legally get married for the visa. Donny goes back to apply for the rest of the party for work visas. Donny introduces the party to Alfred, another beaver, who is in charge of the parties work arrangements.

The party began to walk through the district and was led towards their housing. The places were not made for humanoids. Happi tried to squeeze his way in, but got stuck. Donny then called in some beavers to make some temporary lodging. Happi gets unstuck and jumps into the nearest body of water. He tries to eat a fish to satiate his hunger which all turn out to be sentient, and he eats a small trout right in front of its parent. He then continues to eat 3 more fish.
