The party decides to move to "cave 6". Remembering the last incident as this cave, Breanna casts a trap finding spell to avoid the net that so easily surprised us last time. We decide to set a trap of our own. Glade casts an illusion of two travellers trapped in the net that we had sprung. The orcs come in a large group to investigate while we were hiding in the illusion so it appeared there was only the forest around. We got ready a couple of oil flasks, let the cloth to ignite them, and then threw them behind the line of orcs. 7 orcs went down from the flame and our party continued to fire arrows at the confused orcs. After 20 of the orc party is dead, a sleep spell is cast on the remaining orcs, with only 6 of them falling to the spell. 2 orcs try to recover bows on the ground but are shot dead. Members of our party move forward to attack 4 orcs on the left side of the cave entrance, while arrows are shot at 4 orcs on the right. 1 orc was shot down on the right while the other 3 rush in behind Torque and Norman. The orcs miss the attack on Torque and Norman. Chieko the elvish thief attempted to fire and arrow at one of the orcs behind Torque and almost shoots her own foot but manage to shoot Torque in the back instead. The remaining orcs are destroyed with one orc being hit into a horrible crunching mess. Torque is healed and the party moves into the cave after the entrance is searched for items, but nothing was really found.
We find a room after a little distance with 2 orc women and a few kids. Torque talks to them in orcish and they plead for protection and offer to be Torque and Norman's mates. Eventually the party decides that Torque, Norman, and Chieko can stay to guard them. The rest of the party moves north farther into the cave and find a door. The door gets pulled open and 3 orc warriors yell out an alarm. Part of the party is surprised. Bob attacks one and kills him while dodging attacks from two of the orcs. A spell is cast by Breanna to heat the metal of the orc armor. Another orc is slain while the last orc turns to run. Bobo attacks with his sword and puts it through the back of the orcs armor and watches the orc fall to the ground. Bobo, Picolo, and Chieko had an emergency and head back to the keep. Suddenly an army of orcs appears and prepare to wreak havok on the group of travelers (Ed. I think this last line was a joke; also, the journal keeper must have changed as writing style changes here.).
Paxmax has tried to attack and failed. He received 5 points of damage in his attempt. Jones attacks and kills an orc with 8 points. Paxmax does 7 damage and kills an orc into a bloody pulp. Paxmax and Belzedar heal 5 points of damage. Frederick attacks with 12 points and misses. Paxmax deals 5 damage and destroys his enemy. Cassius swings but misses.
Back in the cave room with the females, they converse for awhile. Sooner or later, the female orcs are ready to leave and Torque and Norman allow them to go. The two 1/2 ogre "brothers" set out to meet up with the group. Jones attacks with 5 and misses. All enemies are killed.
Torque and Norman found the group and now are ready to travel. Breanna uses her magic and healed herself. Breanna detects magic and finds 50' of magic rope. We also carry out a ton of gold and other pieces of treasure.
We arrive at the Keep about 4:00 PM. Breanna talks to Groucho. We talk to the priest, Priestly. They received word of the caves, that they are swarming with evil.
Priestly checks the magical rope and finds it to be a climbing rope with the command "climbsay"; this causes the rope to become rigid or retracts to the user. Cassius and Frederick stay at the temple and then the remainder of the party goes to the trader. We sell 30 long swords, 9 suits of chain mail (!!!), and 1 suit of plate mail fro 456 gold and 16 silver. We also sold a barrel of win for 55 gold. The party all receives 58 XP.
We all returned to the inn for a good nights sleep.
