Hard Cookies!

Professor Grimm found another track that would help us to find the mysterious stranger.
Many of us know what to expect from previous encounters with these strange creatures that have come out of the Limbus.
A large crowd was waiting at the counselors hall when the Professor arrived.​




Pleased with the large number of people that gathered in the meeting place the Professor started to talk:​


"This time i only found a track coming from the Limbus.
We must follow this track and try to find out what secret that lay behind it.
I haven't got the slightest clue where this will lead us to and what is there waiting for us.
So it could be there is nothing.
But we also could find ourselves ambushed by loads of enemies.
Now be ready for whatever may await us and arm yourself respectively."​


Grimm gave everyone a few more minutes to get battle ready.
Shortly after the professor opened a gate to the limbus.
Near the limbus we found a trail of breadcrumbs.​



We followed the trail leading out the twisted passages that leads out of the mountain near the City of Wind.
Then we saw something very strange!
First i thought i been drinking of Captain Seoman's Rum but i was pretty sure i saw a floating giant cookie!
When we moved closer these cookies where very aggressive and they started to attack the party.​



These killer cookies where pretty hard!
I had many encounters with strange creatures but this must have been the most strange one in all my adventures!
We killed the cookies and it was time to follow the breadcrumbs again.
When we came near the Chaos Shrine more cookies attacked us.​



I was so confused.
Do i have to fight them or eat them!​

We moved northwards towards the road.​



It was a good thing that we all worked well together.
We passed the Inn and moved over a bridge.​



We kept following the trail of breadcrumbs.
We seemed heading to Yew.​



The breadcrumbs leaded to the Moongate in Yew.
This could be a problem.
If they took the Moongate they could have gone anywhere.
Grimm went to check it out first.
When he came back he discovered the breadcrumbs leaded into Ilshenar at the Humility Shrine.
We stepped trough and more Killer Cookies attacked us.
I got a serious blow to the head.​



After defeating the cookies one of them dropped a rune.
Would this rune leads us to where the breadcrumbs are leading us?​



Grimm wanted to use the rune and open a gate for us to go trough but it seem that it would take a lot of power and that it would weaken him a lot.​



Grimm had to find another way to get us to the end of the breadcrumb trail.
We investigating the rune the professor discovered the location where the rune would lead too.
He would lead us trough Ilshenar.
Along the way we had to fight several different monsters.​



Soon enough more killer cookies showed up.
Time to fight them again. We now must be close to our destination.
Then a strange looking Witch appeared.
She was not very pleased we have found her!​



She ran away from us into a hut!
We saw a strange tree inside.... it seemed to be made out of candy!​



When i tried to touch the tree i was teleported to a strange place!
It seemed that everything here was made out of candy!​





A woman was prisoned inside the house.
Her name was Gretel.
She said the witch have captured her and her brother.
There was no sign of her brother at all.
But Gretel told us a terrifying truth.
The witch have eaten him!​


The house and everything around here looks so tasty.
We had a long fight to get here and started to get hungry.
All this candy was hard to resist for us all.
Everyone started to take a bite out of pieces in and around the house.
The furniture went and soon followed windows,doors and even the trees outside.
The witch started to scream that we had to stop to eat her house!​



The candy was so addictive there was no stopping us to eat it all.
The Witch was furious and started to turn on us.​



The Witch was as hard as her killer cookies but like her cookies she crumbled before the parties strength.
Gretel was free and it was time to take her home.
First we where confused where to take her.
But Walter came up with the idea that her home was back inside the Limbus.​



Gretel was happy we saved her but before she left she was not happy we came late to safe her brother too.
Thats is a problem in this world, we can not safe everyone!
Before she left she gave Walter a scroll.​

It was time to head back to Professor Grim at the counselors hall.
The Professor carefully placed the 3rd scroll with the other two.​


It looks that we are coming closer to the identity of the mystery person.​



We will come back again to help the professor to find him.
For now it was time to go home and try to get some sleep.
I'm not sure if i can sleep at all with all the sugar in my blood!
And i have a feeling that several of us have to see a dentist!​

After the event we had a little talk with Em Borbarad.


Two things came up:

-The fishing event will be redone to catch the biggest and rarest fish.
But the rules could change a little to make it a all week event and the possibility to leave your fish in a mailbox.


-The idea to redecorate the Counselors Hall. He will give a chance to the players to give or show ideas how it should look like.


When i have more and better details on these things i will post about it all.
