The Thirty-Second Session

After defeating the giant spider in the mountain tunnels, Shag, Halrek, and Yief found an opening and reunited with Aoth and Xochic. Continuing through the tunnels, they fought a minotaur, a group of Duergar, a pair of harpies, and finally came to a pair of locked doors. After Aoth failed to smash them open, Shag cast Knock and dispelled the repulsion effect on the doors. Aoth then smashed the doors open more easily than he anticipated, causing him to fall forward into the room from his momentum. Starting to stand, his body was turned to stone, causing his teammates to have to come up with a strategy to pull him from the room without getting turned themselves. Shag cast Hunger of Hadar, which blocked all visuals past where Aoth was, and Yief pulled his body back. Xochic restored him, and Halrek drank a potion of Stoneskin in anticipation. They then ran in, Halrek unleashed a barrage of attacks, and when one hit, they targeted the Medusa that was within, who was now defenseless and couldn't make eye contact. Aoth charged into the dark void of the spell, and still managed to land several blows. Yief then landed the finishing blow with Yondu's Spirit, impaling the Medusa through the mouth against the wall behind her. Shag then dispelled Hunger of Hadar, and they removed the Medusa's eyes to use for enchantments, putting them in a bag of holding.
