Notes

We start at Lockbury Henge
The party is going towards the Brigganocks. On the route there they encounter a pageant wagon. The wagon wasn't pulled by anything and seemed to be moving on it's own. Walking beside it is a cloaked that doesn't speak or reply to anything the party asks it.

The wagon stops right at the party and unfolds. It seems to be a puppet show. And it shows puppets that remarkably look a lot like Connie, Leaf, JID, Rio, Hasur and Elkhorn. In the background they see a balloon taking off. Over the next few minutes that puppet show exactly retells everything the party did since they came to Yon. Ending with the party arriving at a wagon. A sign drops down showing "To be coninued".

The robed figure traveling with the wagon that doesn't have a visible face seems to hold a piece of parchment. It reads "Good for one private audience with Endelyn Moongrave—no strings attached!". Then the wagon starts rolling again.

They party continues it's way towards the Brigganocks. Right in front of their mine they can see hundreds of stone statues perched next to trees or behind bushes. These statues look just like the Korreds

A small entrance in the rock leads to a long winding labyrinth of tunnels. Mining noises can be heard from deeper in the mountain. The party shouts out. All mining sounds stop, but the shout is not answered. The party discusses how to make a flashlight out of a light cantrip. Eventually they head into the mountain.

After 10 minutes of winding paths all travelers in the party except for Rio, Connie and Leaf instantly fall asleep. The 3 still awake panic and are unsure what to do. They discuss carrying everyone back out of the mountain. But they are unable to do so as there are to many people to carry. After 5 minutes a bunch of small creatures and small wheel barrows full of rope come around the corner. But on the sight of the party they turn around.

After not long a human comes from the same direction, they clearly did not expect the party to be awake. Molliver asks if the party never heard of knocking. Molliver doesn't like the characters to be here. Especially because they mention that they are here in name of the Korreds because the Brigganocks make to much mining noise. After a conversation Molliver seems to understand there is something else at play. The Korreds think that the Brigganocks are helping Creeping Lyn and the Brigganocks think that the Korreds are helping Creeping Lyn. And both are doing stuff to annoy the other. They discuss peace. But in order to do so Molliver asks that the Korreds come to agree to peace themselves. In exchange for setteling the peace Molliver can bring them to the Brigganocks that know about the secret passage towards Motherhorn.

QUEST: Deal with the brigganock

A message is send to Argantle to meet them tomorrow at the end of the lake.
They party Long Rest. They decide to go early towards the meeting point

Next day the party goes towards the lake early to await both parties.
Molliver and a few Brigganocks arrive first not long after Argantle and a few other Korreds also arrive. It's a somewhat difficult discussion but eventually Argantle sees what is happening and agrees to all terms of the deal.

The Brigganocks will only mine from noon to sunset. The Korreds will stop putting the statues at the Brigganocks door. The party agrees to destroy the statues. They party and the Brigganocks head back to the Brigganock Mine

Here Molliver takes them to a gaping chasm with a truss bridge spanned between the 2 sides. Molliver advises not to linger. Though the party decides to go 1 by 1. Rio goes first and when in the middle of the bridge he gets attacked by 3 flaming skulls. It's a hard fight be the party manages to survive and kill all 3 of the skulls.

At the other side they see a Grotto, with in the center a pony with a small wooden hut strapped to it's back:

In the wooden house lives a very old Brigganock named Obud. He is willing to tell the party where the tunnel to Motherhorn is if they give him something tasty. The party hands over one of the truffels they have found in Hither.

The tunnel is in the back of the grotto. But the entrance is collapsed so that Creeping Lyn cannot enter their home. The party discusses what to do next. They decide, since they have the parchment they got from the pageant wagon to just travel to Motherhorn via the front entrance.

This is where we end the session
