==Recollections by Kaylorr==

Hune. Damn him and his portals. [[Ford]] came back from his research and found that there was a wild mage somewhere to the west of [[Solace]]. With [[Tallulah]] leading us, we headed out with Ford, [[Jeroy]], and [[Pearl]]. Along the way we came across and old lady at her farmhouse and we stopped for some quick bites of info. She informed us that she witness a stranger coming from the west speaking in a sharp accent that we later learned to be [[Undercommon]]. With our rest over, we continued along our path where we saw one of these odd fellows on the same path we were. His heading pointed towards the way we came and, with no cover, we decided to take a chance and intercept his travels. Luckily he wasn't some sort of barbaric cavalry, because only a fool would meet them in an open field as we were. 

Upon greeting him, we notice his face was afflicted with some sort of growth and with no other warning he slapped himself, releasing a cloud of spores. Unfortunately, these spores spooked the horses that Ford and I were riding and bucked us off and ran. Jeroy inhaled a bit but was able to shake off. Thankfully, Pearl was at the ready and quickly dispatched him with a swift arrow. We find nothing of note and decided to continue along our path, after locating our missing horses of course. 

Fast forward a couple of hours later, we enter some sort of glade with a massive tree out in the open. We decided to take a quick rest and keep an eye on the tree. We notice that a single Drow (btw did I mention they were Drow) would exit from somewhere underneath the tree and head east. We counted about 45 of them over the course of a few hours. Needing more information, Pearl changed into a giant wolf spider and went to go climb atop the tree. After several minutes, the tree vanishes and appears in a quick flash. We see Pearl no where in sight and decided to move in on the tree. Tal moves in quickly with her wolf friend and disappears underneath the canopy. Ford follows and Jeroy and I make up the rear. A skirmish breaks out underneath the canopy between us and a Drow druid and Hune immediately teleports away after yelling something in Undercommon. Here we find another portal in which a massive spore creature emerges from within. We make quick work of the Mushroom creature and druid and find the portal to be pink in color. Similar to the portal I discovered with Rezik, Zanna, and Sarya. The portal looks to be one way and I quickly decide to dispel it in case more Fung-Drow make their way out. After pillaging the the body of the fallen druid, we decide to quickly make our way back east in hopes of finding out where the drow were headed. PS Pearl also found a shiny new staff - the [[Staff of the Woodlands]] - left by the druid. 

We eventually catch up to one of the last Drow the left the tree and Pearl decides to follow him into some sort of cavern in her super sneaky spider form. This cavern is only 10 miles east of Solace and we wait apprehensively for Pearl to return. She finds that there is a massive army of these Fungus Drow doing nothing but waiting for more orders it seems. To be extra cautious, Jeroy collapses the entrance in hopes that this will slow down what or who ever may be coming after us. We make our way back to solace and meet with [[First Weaver|Wiskadjak]] to inform him of our findings. I also brought back with me a scepter of some sort that grew out of the mushroom creature and find that it definitely originated from the Abyss. With nothing else to do, we part ways and I patiently wait for the next party in need of healing.
