Session Five - 5th May 2023

Finishing the fight with the hobgoblins, the PCs released the prisoners and glanced outside, where they saw a bunch of goblins and what looked like a wyvern talking to them. They barred the door and considered what they planned to do before the goblins started to chop the door down. As a hole formed in the door, a flaming hands spell through the door caused the two goblins immediately outside to die. Deciding to parlé, he wyvern squeezed into the passage and talked to the PCs through the broken door. It seemed strangely obsessed with gems and agreed to allow the PCs to kill the goblins if they gave it some gems. The party agreed and stepped out of the prisoner room, leaving the prisoners cowering behind them.

The goblins, realising the wyvern wasn't going to help them, scattered up to the gatehouse towers - where they defended themselves as the party tried to take them out. Hurling alchemical flasks of either fire or some strange web-like glue, the winter goblins defended themselves well but were eventually taken out by the PCs, though one was still missing. The session ended with all three PCs having been unconscious at one point or another and all exhausted on just one HP. Two of the prisoners, Borden and Gower, were ex-militia from Sweetwater, and although weak, tried to help out. It was getting dark.
