During their intense negotiating session, the party noted that they had eight of the nine puzzle cubes and were at full strength, while Rasne had one puzzle cube, was falling apart because of the death curse, and the majority of his followers were dead (because of the party).

With his acute observational powers, Hertz immediately noticed that Rasne appeared to be falling apart at the seams, indicating that the Yan-ti leader was under the effects of the death curse.

Not wanting to fight a multi-headed snake monster, and not knowing the extent of Rastne’s powers, the party decided to parlay. Next to pillow mountain was an eight-headed hydra who was obviously there to protect Rastne from the party. Upon entering Rastne’s chambers, they found him sitting atop a mountain of pillows. With this knowledge in hand, the party was easily able to ambush and defeat the guards.

As always, Eric wrote the story, and my name is Kent, and I write all the nonsense that bookends the blog, and provides meaningless YouTube links. Also, if decapitated heads spouting off nursery rhymes is your jam, then you should feel at home this week. Oh yeah, they have 8 of the 9 cubes, so maybe, just maybe, they finally get the final cube this week. This week Tempest has her own episode of TNT’s hit show Claws, in which she gossips and plays Screw Marry Kill.
