Good weather and good food. Hear a rumor of lizard tribes in the marshes to the SE of the keep. Go to the caves anyway, reach by 10:00 AM, go to "cave 4". A foul stench fills the air, reeks of death. Breanna remembers an incident that turns us around to go to cave 7 filled with gnolls.

As we entered "cave 7", half of our party was surprised by 4 gnolls; the 4 gnolls were also surprised in turn. 3 of the gnolls went down with bows from Cassius, and Chieko, and then a charge from Bobo. The 4th gnoll took a few attacks to bring down but between the party, it was brought down with the final blow belonging to Bobo, the stinky ogre!

We continue through the caves, choosing to move down a corridor on the right. We move 30 feet down this corridor when Chieko was surprised when she looked down a path branching off to the left. She was shot at by two of the gnolls in the adjoining room. Belzedar attempted to fire an arrow but missed. Picolo attempted the same and damaged one of the male gnolls. Bobo approached this same gnoll and one swing of his sword brought the gnoll down. Breanna cast a light spell to blind a couple of the creatures. A gnoll in the back of the cave is playing on a flute, a special battle tune dedicated to the Bobo. Bobo, inspired by the tun, takes out another of the gnolls. Picolo runs to the front and takes out a gnoll as everyone starts chanting his name: Picolo, Picolo, Picolo...and then he woke up. (Ed. I think it was Bobo who journaled this entry, therefore, there might be some falsehood to it).

All the gnolls are killed but 1 female who surrenders. Our party then noticed that there were children gnolls also in the room. We debate on our course of action for a short time and guard the children in the corner. We loot the bodies and we leave the children and the female is tied up and left; we then leave the cave.

2 hours later we make it to the keep, buy lunch for 3 1/2 gold and sold extra weapons and armor, earning 8 sp. XP gained was 182 humans, 173 others.

(Ed. some other crazy Bobo entry here). We enter a room and face several gnolls. We take them all down but Cassius and Frederick are now badly injured. It's 11:00 AM now. We campout and wait. We rest and eat. Everyone is healed to full health.
