From the Journal of Hrogar

So the Druid who's joined us (Mystera, I think? Mystery-something, anyway) seems to be quite competent, which is a refreshing turn of events. She's been doing things like listening through doors before we open them and scouting ahead so she can see who might be ahead of us before the clanging of dwarven, paladin, and dwarven-paladin armor alerts everyone that we're within a half a mile. Makes me wonder why Tupper and/or Aurelia never thought of doing that (at least Fflam and I have the excuse that they didn't teach much stealth in the 'ol Paladin school).

Anyway, so we moved on and got into another fight, which required surviving fireballs and included an incident where a dire-bear was terrified, stampeded over me and on through the Drow fortress, killing all the drow in it's way (and doing a quite effective job it!) and eventually vanished after causing quite some trouble for them. However, it seems a number of Drow have been escaping us, and they don't seem to be in any hurry to re-engage us. The current theory is that they're fortifying their position within their stronghold, likely around whatever things they're protecting here (including the soul of Alcander). On one hand, it may mean that we want to move quickly to fight them before they finish fortifying their position. On the other hand, it might be a good idea to try to find a place to let Ragnarr rest and replenish his spells, otherwise we're going to have a very tough time of it indeed.
