She explains that she and her husband entered the Slave Mines of the Duergar to find their son and daughter, and slave the Duergar King for these atrocities, but they were betrayed and captured and put to death.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It takes some effort &#8211; yet again &#8211; for most of them to ascend the cursed rope of the Pit of Despair (Flint, suffered considerably), but eventually the entire party. Bronk had tried to use <em>Lay On Hands<\/em> and discovered that the effects of <a href=\"http:\/\/tawmis.com\/kneurth\/the-legend-of-the-ivory-coast\/religion-history\/the-hollowing-holy-day\">the Hollowing<\/a> (which Aelith had just warned about) affected <em>any<\/em> form of magic. Though Bronk had managed to heal Flint, he also soon found his body transformed &#8211; his gender swapped! However, knowing that they were going to track down a male Bugbear, the party quickly thought &#8211; this might work out to their advantage. They ventured to where Aelith had first heard the Bugbear speaking to something she could not see, down the right passage from the Pit of Despair (<em>see <a href=\"http:\/\/tawmis.com\/kneurth\/adventure-notes\/the-stranded\/the-stranded-session-07\">Session 7<\/a> again<\/em>). Bronk, as a female decides to go that way &#8211; she spots the male Bugbear, about 60&#8242; down the passage way, having heard him speak in <em>Goblinoid<\/em>, &#8220;Prepare for the attack&#8221; though it was no immediately visible whom the Bugbear was talking to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"http:\/\/tawmis.com\/kneurth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Image2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"742\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/tawmis.com\/kneurth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Image2-742x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11987\" srcset=\"http:\/\/tawmis.com\/kneurth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Image2-742x1024.png 742w, http:\/\/tawmis.com\/kneurth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Image2-218x300.png 218w, http:\/\/tawmis.com\/kneurth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Image2-768x1059.png 768w, http:\/\/tawmis.com\/kneurth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Image2.png 1068w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 742px) 100vw, 742px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At some point, the flirting conversation becomes uncomfortable for Bronk, as it&#8217;s clear this Bugbear Chief can tell a female Bugbear not tending to the whelps was definitely out of place &#8211; and he could smell the scent of Elves on this female; and knew that the escaped slaves included at least one elf. The male bugbear sprung the attack &#8211; unleashing three Gricks, which, when motionless are impossible to tell from regular stone!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"http:\/\/tawmis.com\/kneurth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Image4.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"769\" height=\"1000\" src=\"http:\/\/tawmis.com\/kneurth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Image4.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11989\" srcset=\"http:\/\/tawmis.com\/kneurth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Image4.png 769w, http:\/\/tawmis.com\/kneurth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Image4-231x300.png 231w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 769px) 100vw, 769px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bronk was forced to retreat; but even as he drew closer to his companions, hoping they&#8217;d rush out sooner, he succumbed to his wounds and lay bleeding just as his companions ran around the corner. Aelith tried to do magic, but found herself being attacked by a Doppelganger of herself, summoned by the wild magic of the Hollowing; the two toppled to the ground, now making it impossible to tell which one was the real Aelith.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The other battle with the Bugbear and the Grick continued, with Azula casting Faerie Fire, but due to the Hollowing, she indirectly targeted Silas instead, which he did not avoid, causing his body to glow purple. She then rushed out, trying to help Bronk, but being taken out as well. Aram rushed out next, also to fall to the Gricks. The battle raged on and Silas finally summoned the <em>Water Weird<\/em>, expending one of the three charges. The effect encased his feet in stone as an effect of the Hollowing but the Water Weird rushed forward to engage with the Bugbear. After a long drawn out battle, the Water Weird proving to be an exceptional assistance, keeping the Bugbear &#8211; the Bugbear was finally defeated and the last remaining Grick fled and one of the Aelith&#8217;s lay slain &#8211; but was it the correct Aelith or was it the Doppelganger?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trinket races Aram to the Bugbear&#8217;s body and snatches the necklace. She then gives it to Silas to fly it down to the Banshee in the Pit of Despair so that none of them have to climb down there and give it to her. She reveals that she knows a secret way out that her and her husband had discovered when they&#8217;d come here to try and find their son and daughter. She leads Silas to this &#8211; and this takes an hour to do. Silas follows her and then flies back as quickly as he can to share this with the others. The others make their way down the rope of the Pit of Despair (some taking the short cut of falling, as seems to be tradition in this Pit).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Within the vents, Trinket took the lead &#8211; thirty minutes, belly crawling through the vents &#8211; Trinket heard several of the Dwarven Slavers mention they&#8217;d need to leave the treasure chamber unguarded so that they could assist in looking for the escaped slaves.
