Freezeday, Harmony Week, Fire Season, 1617

A new day dawns and the RiverVoices are taken by Herra to meet one of the Pavis Dwarves. They are introduced to <insertnamehere>, an old Dwarf with no legs who moves himself around by means of a cunningly built wheelchair. He provides them with some specialised climbing equipment inclusing some expanding braces (which can be used as platforms), rope ladders and expanding pitons.

Armed with the new tools the party head down river once again with their enterage of RiverFolk?. Agian the camp it setup on OgreIsland? and the group decend into the tunnel complex. With the aid of the new equipment, the party are able to all reach the Manling chamber and start to plan their next action. Whilst the screams of the Manlings are distracting, the strong smelling herbs brought along do help against the overwhelming stench of the room.

As the Party gathers, SnommI notices one of the Manlings falling into the pool. After thrashing around for a while the Manling is pushed out of the pool by a giant flabby arm. Much debate is had over the ownership of the arm.

SnommI is sent forward down the first few ledges in an attempt to lasso one of the Manlings. As he approaches the lower levels and the pool, 5 gorp burst out of the ppol and begin to chase him back up the cavern. Using Fire arrows, disruption and other magic, the Gorp are eventually slain.

SnommI again headed into the cavern and managed to lasso one of the Manlings which is dragged back up to the top ledge where it is knocked unconcious and tightly bound. The Party then decend to one of the lower ledges and slaughter the remaining Manlings.

Deciding that they need to recover again, the party take their Manling captive and head back to Pavis. The Manling is handed over to a quite excited ScholarJennings who rewards the party with yet mroe Temple credit.
