After speaking with Botticelli a while, they convinced him to ride with them to Refuge and then decide if he wants to depart or would rather become their new cook.
A few days later, a pair of winged coldsnap basilisks drifted into the ship’s air envelope. Void creatures, they began to revive when exposed to air. Gunny was able to swivel the ballista and skewer one! Scraggy alerted the rest of the team and warned them to avert their gaze lest they turn to ice. The team tried to figure out a way to engage the basilisks without looking at them. Gunny was turned to ice first. Zzyym hit one of the basilisks with magic missiles. Scraggy shot one with his musket, Jiraiya punched one square in the snout, and Intevar unleashed a volley of arrows. The team unleashed a torrent of attacks at one of the basilisks, but the dreadful gaze of the creatures kept turning people into ice!
One of the basilisks collapsed unconscious on the deck and was killed by a coup de grace from Ruby Rue. The other snatched up Gunny and flew out of the air envelope, disappearing into wildspace! Intevar and Ruby drained the blood from the basilisk and coated Zzyym, who was restored. However, they knew they didn’t have enough to coat Scraggy and Jiraiya. The revived Zzyym added its mind to the task at hand. They mixed some of the remaining blood with Zzyym’s two potions of resist cold, and while not guaranteed to work, it was the best shot they had. Miraculously, both were restored to flesh!
