Re: Serpent's Skull: City of Seven Spears [IC]
This time, the group explores a vast track of jungle. They do find what appears to be the southwestern edge of Saventh-Yhi (at least in this relative area), being close to be standoffish with the ancient city for now. Then, they go as far as Book feels they will ever need to go, and then move over a little east to explore the way back. During their travels, they were being watched by 4 of what Amivor calls "kechs" (the winged simians) in the later hours during their return, but there was no attempt by the kechs to engage.
Back at camp, after the report is made, Amivor says, "No more jungle exploration. It is good to get limits, but that shouldn't be our focus ... Saventh-Yhi is, so tomorrow figure out where you want to pick your search back up and get back to the grind."
Rousing discussion, but not training.

Book suggests they head to the unexplored region they passed on the way south.

As the group begins their exploration again on the western reaches of Saventh-Yhi, in the middle of the day they hear something ... big, and slow, and plodding ... coming their way. But they don't see anything yet.

Book turns and says ”Take cover!” in a loud whisper and then moves to conceal himself.

Re: Serpent's Skull: City of Seven Spears [IC]
As the party takes various cover ... several seconds later a massive behemoth some 40' long. Some tall, powerful saurian quadruped with a long neck slowly trundles by, a kech in its mouth and blood spattered about it without any accompanying wounds.
There is some chatter on the collective as to what it might be, but Xhanfaerd thinks that the great lizard might just be a legendary mokele-mbembe, a river cryptid that is barely seen.

Re: Serpent's Skull: City of Seven Spears [IC]
Gelik telepathically harrumphs, complaining that the head of the mokele-mbembe would be an amazing trophy.
The great beast passes and heads towards the water, out of sight and sound.
Once that happens, the party comes out of their hiding places. Aron is in awe, but Sersheelda practically has tears streaming out of her eyes, as if she witnessed one of the Wonders of the World.09JUN2024: Completed reading Paizo's Pathfinder Campaign Setting: Inner Sea NPC Codex (2013, Compton, Crenshaw, et. al.).

Re: Serpent's Skull: City of Seven Spears [IC]
Book will quickly cross to the creature's path and document its footprints. Measuring the distance between each to gauge its stride and calculate height, etc.
When he is done, he turns back to the others and asks, "Is everyone ready to carry on?"Can I have a Mountain Dew? Where are the Cheetos?

Re: Serpent's Skull: City of Seven Spears [IC]
The NPCs agree, and exploration continues, leading them to one-hundred-foot-high ziggurat capped by a hundred-foot-tall spire of stone. The sides of the ziggurat’s tiers are carved with images of mounds of treasure and merchants trading wares.

Re: Serpent's Skull: City of Seven Spears [IC]
Book wants to document as much as he can about the ziggurat and the images. He suggests that someone stay with him and the others can make a circuit around the thing looking for entrances or other interesting spots.

Is there an intention to climb the ziggurat today, or to simply do recordings of the lower tier?

Book is always ready and excited to discuss any archaeological finds they make and will take up conversation with anyone willing to do so. He is also keen to make a plan to try to find an entry point.
