The entire boggard village has been a patch of firm ground built on the shores of a larger pond, with the huts in muddy parts and the paths good walking paths even for humans (even though muddy, but not enough to affect speed). The party already passed part of something that looked like a village square and firepit that was unlit, but just a little bit further down the path is a 10-foot-diameter pit filled with muddy water mars the area. A fence of sticks surrounds the hut, and sharp wooden stakes have been attached to the fence to point inward, making any attempt to climb out of the pit treacherous indeed.

The sizzling begins again at the hut directly across from the large one. A boggard slinks out from near that one, and Brand and Lilim fail to notice.

Surprise Round ...

Fallon focuses her skills on ambush against the boggard and casts a ray of frost, hitting it in the head for 23 cold, plus an extreme case of brain freeze (sickened). It came up right next to the Scribe, so he does a spinning roundhouse to its stomach for 16. It is down. Continuing slaughter of village.

Fallon: 25.
Alianium: 18.
Gek'k: 11.
Rezah: 10.
Boggard: 7. (14:37). Sickened til end R5T25.
