The Star Mountains in the far west was our next destination, across wastelands home to only bandits and beasts. For days we flew, until reached the forest. This was not our pilots best landing. One of the legs broke and the wing was cracking. This apparently was not the prime concern at the moment, as we abandoned it and headed off into the woods. The gloomy girl must've lived around here because she quickly found a path that led to a beautiful waterfall.
The gnome and bard walked over to the waterfall, and the gnome threw him to the top. The bard started singing, it must've been good because the animals of the forest seemed entranced by it. I got a clean kill on a distracted deer, and we had venison enough to last the party a week. Though I had forgotten about the gnome's incredible appetite.
The bard has stumbled across a large hidden tunnel behind the waterfall. The gnome dug his own, less hidden tunnel. I sent Snort in with a torch when I noticed they had forgotten to bring their own. While everyone was trying to figure out some riddle to open a door, I finished cooking and preserving our meal. When I caught up with them later, it turned out Snort was the one who solved the riddle (guess who gets a prime cut of venison tonight!). The tunnel led into a hidden grotto, clearly home to some deity. I dare not make a fool of myself here.
