Not wanting to waste the days they have remaining before the curse claims Ursay and Callum, the team rushed down into the deep caverns to find the ur-histachii. Ursay scouted ahead and found the lair, confirmed by the stench. Skree quaffed a potion of good hope, Callum cast Bailey’s golden retriever, and Helg cast blessing of fervor. Callum had cast light on Herezis so even though Ursay was very quiet, the team was very obvious in their approach. Out of the darkness, ur-histachii black bloods and a single histachii rager rushed into battle. Ursay was up front and took the brunt of the initial assault. One of the black bloods vomited forth a spray of tar-like bile that burned and coated the team. Helg was entangled for a round, and the rest of the team found themselves in difficult terrain due to the sticky gunk.
Helg cast spiritual weapon right away, which began slashing away at the enemies. Ursay fired acidic arrows, Skree put his maca to great utility, and Herezis used magic to grant his amount the blessing of flight. Callum cast his first of two fireballs. The living and dead histachii withstood the opening assault with tenacity. They ripped back into the party with tooth and nail. Another ur-histachii sprayed its breath over the flying Herezis with limited impact. He countered with charge and smite! He ravaged the undead but coated his lance in hardening, encumbering black blood.
After another fireball, slashes from Skree, and precise arrows from Ursay, the foes were suddenly driven back and cut down. Skree used the vial he had stored his potion in to gather heart blood for the antidote to the curse. Callum used detect magic to locate a powerful set of spellguard bracers which Helg donned. The team also found several gemstones. They decided before facing the chuul, they needed to camp and recover. They debated heading back to the mongrelfolk pens but opted to hide out closer to the chuul caverns.
