Game Master for this session was Charles Plemons.
The team won over the support of Korak Kaag of the centaurs. He told them what he knew about Artrosa, that it allegedly had rooms inside and the doors in the heads appeared only during certain moon phases. He agreed to send a scout, Erdija, with them to Artrosa. First, she took them to the centaur city of Vurnirn where they picked up a few resources.
The team headed north through the forest until evening and made camp. They setup their pavilion and used Deska’s serpentine owl to stand guard. Deska was awakened to the owl urgently alerting her to danger! A trio of andrazku demons thundered out of the snow to accost the team. Greta blessed the party, and Erdija ran out of the tent firing arrows. Deska dropped a flame strike on one of the demons as the team scrambled out to engage. One of the andrazku activated righteous might and doubled its size! All Might and one of the demons began a brutal exchange as Greta and Tulvur fought another. The third ripped its way into the tent and attacked Deska. Ten-Penny flanked the one fighting All Might but soon found herself ravaged by the demon’s mutilating gouge. Tulvur was able to land mighty shots with Icebiter, but the demon was able to devastate him as well. Tulvur cut down one demon but found the enlarged demon too much to handle. Denessia opened fire on the demon before her gun misfired and broke. Deska failed to affect a demon with flame strike but did knock one prone allowing Erdija to kill it with her bow. Tulvur tried to flee, but the demon teleported to cut him off and tried to murder him! Denessia saved his life with channeled energy that also healed the demon. All Might charged around and pressed in on the demon alongside Greta and a revitalized Ten-Penny. Deska summoned a pack of hyenas and a wolverine which succeeded in surrounding the demon and pulling it off its feet. At last, Greta landed a critical blow with her axe to slay the creature.
The team nursed their wounds, searched the bodies, and scouted the area. Erdija determined the demons came from the north as a group from the general direction of Artrosa. All Might was curious how Abyssal demons arrived on this plane to begin with and if this were a mere chance encounter. The team patched their tent and resumed their rest, sleeping until dawn.
