With a triumphant hoot, Giant raises the staff aloft so that Margar can reach it.

I’ll eagerly try and grab the staff from Giant, almost forgetting to hold onto the rope with one hand.

Seeing Margar struggling to hold onto two things at once, Fechr will take up the rope to stop Giant falling into a horrible pit.

Malaiz watches all this with great curiosity and makes encouraging noises of support or surprise where appropriate. A swell of pride travels through his rotund frame as he feels like an important cog in this well oil contraption of a party.
Everything seems to be in hand and he wanders off to see if there's anything of interest in the chamber.

The only things left unclaimed are:
  • Two swords (d6 damage) and a dagger (d4 damage) on the floor of the 'infirmary'
  • A fishing rod with a rusty hook (on bookshelf in the northern half of the outer-ring)

Otherwise: congratulations, gang! You successfully recovered the Staff of Awful Light, you defeated the Rotten Nurse (by resisting her Mental Torture Prison), the Kôbôlths (you blew up with the bomb), and the Borg Bitor, which you killed with a group effort, without taking a scratch. Lord Margar did not employ his 'speak to animals for d20 minutes' power, so was not able to find out more information from the Borg Bitor, but nevermind: the quest is completed nevertheless!


Do you have any appetite to continue into the next chapter, on another foolhardy adventure?

It's a bit vague. So long as you can justify how you're carrying everything in a quasi-realistic way...

I’ll grab a sword, but I’ll make sure my gifted dagger is worn in a prominent visible place so not to offend Malaiz.

I kind of pictured him as a pasty-white-skinned version of Salad Fingers!

Very well; if you want the dagger, by all means take it! Just wanted you to be well-informed.


Giant-Dances-the-Sea runs between the filthy cots and their dismembered occupants, up the flight of steps and tries the key in the western door.

It unlocks and opens onto the room with the mushrooms sprouting from their patches of glowing moss and the dark hole in their midst.
Haha, it's definitely in the same genre.

God, Salad Fingers is a blast from the past, I remember my sister excitedly showing me, and being quite disturbed by it :lol:
I like russsssty ssspoonsssss :lol:

You found it disturbing because it fucking was!

Malaiz also often forgets if he took offense before, years of living in a cave will do that to you.
