And the Adventures sure did need them! Because as soon as they are healed up, the great big evil adult blue dragon comes back for more pillaging! He or she (???) fires lightning bolts into the crowd of guards and archerers that have assembled on top of the Keep.
Shae (female human fighter) with her bad-ass abilities throws a couple of lances at the dragon. One lance simply falls to the ground, never to be seen again. But another lance hits the dragon hard! Sticking into its side. Cory fires a volley of arrows at the dragon, which causes it to leave the village.
Crosis (male dragonborn sorcerer) yells at the dragon in Draconic, asking him/her to leave us alone, but the dragon appears to have not heard him. What a bitch, but were not sure of the sex...
Anyway, Egbert the red haired dwarf calls for the adventurers to help him save the Flour Mill. Which they can see from the parapets of the keep is on fire. He escorts them down into the cellar and gives them a big bronze old key that will lead them through a secret passageway. Once they get to the end of the tunnel they can then sneak over to the flour mill undetected.
Cory (male halfling rogue) uses the key and they open the old rusted door. As they go single file into the tunnel they discover a couple of swarms of rats! These rats bite hard! And they are difficult to hit, so the adventurers simply ignore the swarms and run though the tunnel. Cory is able to successfully open the locked door at the end of the tunnel quietly.
They then dispose of a group of kobolds that were lighting fires around the flour mill. Once the area is clear of baddies they notice that the fires appear to have been faked. But they go into the flour mill anyway, only to discover an ambush! Which Crosis decides this is a good time to use his badass force spell, which kills 2/3 of the ambushies. The remaining cultists hide and stay quiet!
After ensuring the flour mill isn't on fire anymore, the adventurers go back to the Keep. They spend a couple of hours resting. But then a half-dragon challenged the remaining forces in the keep to one final battle before the pillagers will depart. Shae realizes it's her chance to shine, so she goes out for battle. Which she realizes was a bad idea when the half-dragon opens its mouth and electrifies her for double her pitiful pool of hit points. The priests in the keep hearl her up however. Now the party is considered heroes of Greenest!
