The cook, the ooze and level 2

Our brave adventurers returned to the halfling logging camp to tend to the wounded and unconscious. After spending the night, they ventured back to Lukrimar Keep, and spent the 4th day of Planting resting and healing. Their other wand was also identified as a wand of longstrider.

On the 5th day of Planting they were fully healed and struck back out for the goblin caves. They encountered two goblins and a dog fortified behind a table for cover and with a gong nearby. Red "snuck" up the hill whilst the gnome couple snuck over to the entrance. A battle ensued, and one goblin got off a few strikes at the gong before falling. The dog was distracted by other dog ghost sound gnome illusions. Its masters killed, the dog then attempted to flee to live out its remaining years in peace and restful contemplation, but was struck down by Red.

The group advanced on to Big Bronk's room, finding some treasure. Then off to a curtained area which zapped the gnomes with a negative energy magical trap. Red lept over the trap into a room with a hobgoblin zombie and skeleton. The zombie pummeled Red before both were struck down by Red and Petra the paladin. In the room was found a note from someone named Rutvin complaining that a black dragon had corrupted the goblin tribe.

The adventurers then proceeded to a temple, discovering it to be of Dwarven construction. They found hidden treasure and drunk from a healing font. Then off to the kitchen, where a dire weasel attacked from under sacks of flour, chomping away at Erlwyn and dropping her unconscious. Meanwhile the goblin cook charged out of the pantry with his meat cleaver, but was struck down. A small cave filled with rotting food also contained an ooze, which slam attacked Red but was killed after a few arrows and a beating with a kitchen stool.

More treasure was found, 8 potions so far, and enough XP for level 2!
