The Danger Gang looks for a former Mummy

After another quiet night camping out at the cave of The Brown One, the Danger Gang awakes, anxious to find this missing former-Mummy. Martialis suggests they start at the graveyard and move out in the classic spiral pattern. They realize that this might be the last they see of The Brown One, and so they say their goodbyes. They agree to meet up with Gershom in Aege in a few weeks. They head back to Pella to start their classic spiral search pattern. Unfortunately, the skeletons that Karp turned yesterday have returned to their tombs and risen again. Luckily, Karp is able to turn most of them again, and the Gang is able to defeat the remaining skeleton without too much trouble. Still no sign of the ex-mummy, however. The spiraling eventually leads back to the river, where they notice that their raft is missing.

They walk down river until nightfall, then set up camp. It's the night of the full moon, and so Martialis needs some fresh mistletoe. They scout about, looking for the holy plant when, out of nowhere there appears a huge moth (Arben recognizes it as a Gloomwing). Martialis casts Invisibility to Animals, but to no avail. The moth swoops in for the kill, clawing and biting Karp. As it descends, Martialis and Tobin catch a glimpse of the pattern on its wings. They are hypnotized, but their friends quickly immobilize them before they can hurt themselves or others. Can quickly casts Colorspray on the winged beast, blinding it. It counters by releasing a pheremone, lowering the strength of the adventurers. Arben is quickly in danger from collapsing under the weight of his own hair. None the less, the Gloomwing is quickly dispatched, and everyone comes to. Martialis tracks down his precious herb and they return to camp for a good night's sleep.
