So we headed back to the room that had the Giant Toads in it and Nightwind bent the bars to get into the last tunnel and I, Solon, bent the bars to get into the last corner of the sewers. Nightwind lead the way and we discovered a Giant Rat Lair that had a big yellow rat thing with gigantic teeth seemingly calling the shots. We dispatched them quite quickly and gathered their heads to add to the amount of gold we would get from Mary at Mary's Market. We searched the area and found some copper coins and a magical javelin +1 and a periapt of health. It was quite a find. We then headed back to the fourth tunnel and headed to the right. The tunnel curved sharply and the water started getting deeper when we entered into a small room with a concrete slab that had a set of stairs leading up. The stairs lead into a basement that was being used as a cellar. The stairs in the corner lead up to what was a wooden barn that was used as a hay storage for animals, but it didn't look like it was currently being used by anyone.
We were on our way out when we were ambushed by some watch spiders. We dispatched the spiders, but they were quite powerful and when we searched the barn, we found some coins and a gem worth about 50 gp. We then headed outside and noticed the walls of Trynt to the north of us. The barn trail that was used by the wagons hauling the hay looked like it hadn't been used in quite some time. We headed into town and went to Mary's Market where she marveled at the yellow rat with the big teeth. However, she paid us the 20 gp per rat head that she said she would and gave it to us in platinum. We then visited the Temple of Helm for healing and noticed that they had a supply of potions that could be had for a small donation. We stocked our gear with the potions and donated about 1300 gp to the temple for healing potions and antidotes and four potions of extra healing as well. We then went to Korgle's and asked where we could take a bath and he said that there was a place about two miles out the east gate that would do the trick. We decided to walk since it was such an early morning thing. On our way out of town, we stopped at Grimml's Maps and Books and bought another map that he had searched for that was similar to the treasure map that we had found in Phrum Castle. His copy of the map he found, we purchased for 10 gp and left to go take a bath. Grimml turned out to be an elderly gnome. He also tested the paper the map was written on and told us that it was trapped paper and we needed to sprinkle salt onto the paper under a brightly lit moon-sky at least half-moon or better and clear sky, no clouds. To unlock the map and show the key, we must do this.
We arrived at the bathhouse, which happened to be a three-story manor house with a ten-foot white wooden gate around the property. The house had 5 large chimneys that were spouting gray smoke. There were two guards with halberds at the entrance of the fence and the told us that we would need to take our armor off and give our weapons to the man inside. We were also told to keep a civil tongue. We entered and found a pavilion that had lock boxes to store our armor, weapons, etc. We also could disrobe and redress into white robes in order for our clothes to be cleaned. Bram the wizard was taken to a special room and we heard him exclaim, "Oh my God!" He then walked out wearing the white robes and a belt with the red pouch that was storing the maps and his money. We then went inside the house and were greeted by a slender beauty with blue skin and green hair. She clapped twice and three elven beauties and one human beauty descended the huge stairs and each took one of their respected race to a room on either side of the stairs.
Time passed blurry and slowly, for it seemed like hours of being pampered and massaged. Each lady, after the massage, asked if there was anything else that they could do for us. Nightwind, Ja'Lil, and Bram answered no, but I, Solon, was intrigued and whispered sweet nothings into the elven beauty's ear. The next thing I remember is walking our the door and seeing the guys staring at my face. Apparently I had a large red welt from what appeared to be a hand on my face. We left, got dressed, and paid 5 gp per person to the man in the pavilion.
We then went and re-visited the Temple of Chauntea, where the paladin lives, to see if the symbol we drew had been answered. It hadn't, so we headed back to Trynt and when we arrived were astonished that it was only 4 in the afternoon, we had left at nine in the morning and it takes 3 hours to walk the distance. It seemed like six hours that we were at the manor house. Something weird definitely happened. We then went to Korgle's and asked if he knew where we could get some salt. He pointed across the road and said,"You see those two houses, go right behind them and you'll see Lenny's Lamentations. We went there, bought one pound of salt for one sp and noticed that Lenny was a halfling and that this was a general store/grocery store/restaurant/bakery all in one place. We then headed back to Korgle's and had some dinner and rested for the night.
This is where we called game. So until next time; safe gaming and have fun.
