Beginning our adventure: Hank and Yavari are covered in white floofs, making them human balloons while Evren holds the string. Yavari eats one of the floofs. It goes down easy like yogurt. This doesn't make much of a difference. He then attempts to rub on a wall. also doesn't make a difference. Hank shoves his arms and legs into a torch an no longer becomes buoyant. The team walks into a big room with a hole in the center to a second story. They lift yavari up to inspect, but he finds nothing. Yavari gets rid of his little floofs off with a torch but hes still floating. as soon as the team is all on the second floor green mist fills the floor below them. They run through a maze and find a chest with coins at the end. Hank pockets a few a coins. They run a bit more, but hank falls a level down, with quick thinking hes climbs up the still floating Yavari back up. they double back to a triple intersection and go straight into an opening room like the first one. They book it up the ladder and hit another maze. They run some more until they find a treasure chest with a fan. Hank, with a bit of intuition senses its a magic fan. he goes behind Evren as Evren flails the fan once which causes a huge burst of air to fly. They get through the maze and out the other end, with the magic fan and the token balloon boy Yavari.
Billie Jean and Finge enter a tiled room, with water underneath. the water seems to have something in it, but they are not sure. Billie Jean begins jumping on random colored tiles. upon jumping on the tiles, the other tiles will flip. after a bit of jumping, they decide to go one at a time. Billie does green then blue, but the tiles do not flip as expected. they decide to tie one end of a rope to Billie jean and another to a wall. he proceeds to go green, blue, then black. The black flips on Billie Jean sending him into the water. he is pulled up very quickly, but right as he is out the water bubbles with piranhas. he tries again going red, green, black, light blue,red, then white. making it safely to the other side. Finge attempts a different path via a tight rope walk but she flips into the water. They pull themselves up to a light blue tile quick enough to avoid being eaten by piranhas. They jumps onto a center black tile, but that one flips. she climbs back onto it again, but this time the black tile doesn't flip. Billie Jean moves the rope over to hover over the tiles they decided to jump onto and makes it across to the other side. Blund attempts a similar path to Billie Jean but falls into the water. Blund is heavy so the process to pull him out is much greater giving the party a single bleed damage. Finge had 2 bleed damage from their previous splashes. Blund tries to move up a different tile but falls again. they are a bit more prepared for his fall he has 2 bleed. Blund jumps once more and makes it. Driden makes a perfect cross. they heal their bleed damg but waste one med kit in the process.
going back to the trio. before them is a room filled with pillars. Initially they attempt to fly using Evren and Yavari as a ballast and the fan as propeller. while they are initially successful they only make it to the middle. hank holds on to the pillar but Evren drifts to the floor tied to Yaravi. Hank sprints around the perimeter and makes a jump towards the final pillar but fails spectacularly. taking 2 crush damage. While at the bottom Evren is stabbed by air. he quickly climbs up a pillar and makes it toward the safe platform. Yavari tied to him of course. Evren unties his rope to Evren and sends it to Hank. while this is happening Hank is stabbed by air and takes 1 bleed. hank looks around the room and finds a light in the distance in a crumbled pillar. Hank hits a crystal unleashing an army of ghosts. he attempts to climb up the rope but fails getting a cut across his hand. 2 bleed damage. Yavari blows the fan, ruining the rope escape for hank but also hitting the ceiling. this causes the clouds to let go of him and he falls to the ground but hits the fan mid fall it fails, so the fan is out of charges he takes 2 crush damage. the rope falls but Hank fails yet again to grab it. Hank akimbos his crossbow and sling and runs for the closest pillar. He kills one ghost with a bolt. Yavari decides to take a bow shot at the ghosts and takes out two ghosts. Hank gets to the top and makes a final jump but Evren gets onto the pillar and shotputs Hank and himself safe onto the safe platform. Yavari is beat red from the massive amounts of burn from the torch marks used to get rid of the floofs.4 burn We are all in pretty bad condition. They cannot heal themselves so they continue on their merry way.
Finge and Billie Jean enter a large circular room with a bulbous creature guarding a very imposing door. as they enter, a large octopus unfurls itself and begins attacking. Billie rolls meat shield while Blund and Driden are charging magic. Finge tries to stealth, but this is silly as the octopus is omniscient. Finge throws their boomerang at it instead the octopus rolls to hit everyone except for Finge, who it chooses to grab. The rolls are all good and the octopus loses three tentacles in the process. the octopus, angry about getting mogged, attempts instead to grab all members. The grabs all fail. so it inks the water and runs away to obscure its position. Billie Jean heads towards the door while the others get ready to attack the octopus if it comes out of the water again. three tentacles burst out of the water crushing only Driden but the rest of the party is fine. the octopus makes a second smash attempt and it doesn't do s well. Finge starts making attempts to move towards the door. The octopus strikes once more at Blund , Driden, and Billie jean. One tentacle is severed by by Billie Jean 2 crush, but it falls directly onto him, and Blund takes another tentacles but destroys it as well. 2 crush. Driden slices a 6th tentacle. The octopus tries to grab Finge, peering its head through the pond. Both parties miss the attack. Billie jean make the final shot, blowing a hole right through its head killing it and its head sinks beneath the waves. they bbq for celebration.
