The Accordlands

Ow. Ow. I feel so weak and tired right now. I managed to get the doors closed to save us from the strange possessed dragon but not without becoming drained.

Starting from the beginning... We set out up the mountains in search of the shadow creature.
We were ambushed by a hill giant on the way up, but he was dispatched and probably completely unrelated.

When we went up closer to the summit of the mountain, we saw what at first appeared to be a large cage structure of some type. Upon further inspection, we discovered it was the ribcage of a gigantic silver dragon. It had been dead for some time, but how long is undiscernable.

The Northrog left a small contingent in the cave in the mountain. They were still guarding something, but the contingent was small enough that it could not have been
very valuable or perhaps everything of great value was already taken. In the main guard area Borrow saw a shade lion - which I thought was the "shadow" that caused such disruption. According to Borrow, it saw or sensed him but did not seem to care. Since the creature was obviously not evil, we spared it when slaying the Nothrog. It seemed to thank us and then disappeared.

There was a cave full of shrieker mushrooms hiding some sort of temple or treasured room, built by the Dwarves. We thought that our troubles were over and we could waltz in, finding something important. We were wrong. When we got close, we noticed (or should i say, it noticed us) a sort of black dragon. Except it wasn't like a normal black or shadow dragon. (well, at least according to the others, I thought that dragons had all died long ago and were just a myth). It was definitely not friendly-- it spewed this ray of acid that blinded and drained away my health. We ran into the room and I used my ring to enlarge myself in hope that I would be able to shut the door. I was hit badly, but managed after many tries to get it shut. This is a temporary solution, but at least we are still alive.
