Seasoning for the Stew

  • Continuing the fight, Mother Lorinda continues through her impressive array of countermeasures
    • She easily dominates Whip, turning him to target Elian, stymied only by a lucky concentration failure when the puppy bites her in return
    • Bern's daughter continues cowering, and will remain that way for the foreseeable future.
  • Bern and Joana get into the workshop, finding, at last, the cauldron they were seeking. It is large, it is actively boiling over, and it is... sealed by a cartoonishly massive lid with an even more cartoonishly massive locking bar.
    • Lorinda notices immediately, and shouts expletives to the effect. She summons pillars from beyond the material plane to pin her assailants into position, and beelines toward the workshop. Madrin and Elian give chase while Whip struggles to free himself (eventually succeeding).
    • The workshop itself reacts to the disturbance, summoning adorable butterflies with razor wings to flutter around the interlopers.

    • It does not deter them from their task--straining against all physical impossibility, they nudge the bar and the lid out of place, just as Lorinda enters the room.

A pair of sickly sweet voices echo from the cauldron. Lair Action: Oh, sister! Did you think you could keep us in our own cauldron forever? Lair Action laughs and cackles! Lair Action: It's a cramped space for two, but I bet you will find it quite spacious! Lair Action: The cauldon explores in an ocean of red-orange froth! The cauldon explores in an ocean of red-orange froth! Leticia: Oh, Lorinda! Was it worth it? You were always the jealous one!

  • The whole situation is immediately a disaster for anyone who isn't a hag. The two new combatants unleash all of their pent-up fury at Lorinda, laying waste to the surroundings and heedless of all other concerns. The party weathers the storm long enough to beat an escape.

Whip: Where'd the girl go, she was just here. HEY! THE GIRL! WE'RE LEAVING! Whip: She has a name right?

  • Bern's Daughter is missing from her hiding place. They are able to chase her to the most logical direction (out), where she stands, dumbfounded, at being on a porch dozens of feet off the ground in the middle of a raging snowstorm.
    • (to note, this was not the weather when the party entered the house)

Bern's Lost Daughter: It's so high up! Bern's Lost Daughter: Who are you? Bern's Lost Daughter: Where am I? Whip: Hey let's get outta here before we ask all the question yeah Whip: This is okay, follow me

  • The party wastes no time. One casting and one scroll of feather fall gets them safely to the ground
  • They hut up and confer on their new situation, trapped in a massive, pocket-dimension-spanning snowstorm without an immediate clue on a way out. They decide to ask Breyonna about her one friend (the one who came from somewhere else), and head that way.
    • On the way, an Abominable Snowman tries to ambush them. It fails.
