CCXXXII. Trials, Tribulations...and Treasure
After entering an undiscovered section of dungeon that
the miners broke into, the adventurers have found a quartet
of unusual trolls...
Ged: Immune to fire! How can it be?!? Boccob! (he looks
uselessly at his fire wand, which he was poised to use
next)
Nenya: Hmm. (begins spellcasting) Don't charge them -
we need to cast spells here.
Arnold: Aaa. (he moves between the trolls and Ged/Nenya)
Sdill, we can't let them get you.
Bosco: (watching the fires roll off the trolls' skin)
Whoa. (he makes himself scarce)
Mongo: That little shit'd better end up fighting...(he
hurls his hammer at a troll...but misses) HEY!
Arnold: Aaa.
Mongo: (catches his hammer, still wondering how he missed
his target) Damn!
Gorin: (moves to Arnold's side, as the trolls bear down
on the party) Damn, those guys are big...
Arnold: Yah.
Nenya: (still spellcasting) The trolls are getting too
close! I can't blast them with my spell if they're near
us...!
Gorin: (muttering) But she didn't want us to charge them...
what the hell _does_ she-
Arnold: I vill sdop them. (begins to charge the nearest
troll)
Mongo: No, let me! (he throws his hammer at the troll,
smashing it in the chest) Yeah!
fire troll #1: (despite its size and bulk, it staggers)
Rargh!
Nenya: Excellent...you bought me just enough time. (she
launches a cone of ice and frost at the trolls, who are
all in the same basic area) Banzai!
As the sleet and frost exploded around them, the trolls
reeled, two of them falling to the dungeon floor. It was
apparent, even to Arnold, that the monsters were rather
susceptible to the blast of cold.
Gorin: Banzai?
Nenya: (to Ged) They were perfectly aligned targets.
Ged: They may be bigger than normal trolls, but they're
still just as stupid. (he prepares a new spell)
Gorin: (watching the trolls stagger toward the party)
Hey...
Mongo: They're not finished - hell, they're too close for
comfort! (he rushes forth and bashes one of the foes
in the kneecap) Hah!
fire troll #2: (topples) Graaargh!
Mongo: Chew on THAT, you-
fire troll #2: (sweeps at the dwarf with an oversized arm,
bowling him over) Graaaargh!
Mongo: (drops his hammer and hits the floor, hard) Ugh!
fire troll #3: (moves in on Mongo from one flank) Yrgggh.
However, the huge monster had not considered the power of
Arnold; the warrior charged in from the side, swinging his
brightly-glowing sword in a sidewise motion. The troll, who
was hunched over somewhat in order to claw at Mongo, was a
perfect target.
fire troll #3: (howls in pain as its right arm, shoulder,
and a portion of its head are sheared off) Bleaaargh!
Arnold: (counters with a howl of his own) Ah-nold!
fire troll #3: (its severed part falls to the ground,
leaving the headless, one-armed torso swaying unsteadily)
Gorin: Oh, this is too sweet to pass up...(he charges, and
dives into the foe's feet, toppling it easily) Hah!
fire troll #3's headless torso: (falls to the floor and
scratches at the rock)
fire troll #3's severed head, shoulder, and arm: (lying on
the floor nearby, twitching) glk...
Gorin: (quickly on his feet, he looks around) Where'd the
other ones get to?
fire troll #1: (having gotten by the warriors during the
initial engagement, it now stalks Ged and Nenya) Argh!
fire troll #4: (likewise) Rargh!
Nenya: (backing up) Perhaps a wall of-
Ged: Observe...Boccob's power! (he finishes his spell, and
a huge, magical energy-sword appears)
fire troll #1: Graaar?
Ged: (guides the sword into the troll's chest) Yea!
fire troll #1: (staggers, black blood spraying from its
sliced belly) Glurgh...!
Nenya: The sword, then! (she whips out her shortsword and
charges the other troll) Yai!
fire troll #4: (not expecting this assault, it is a moment
too slow in reacting) Graa-
Nenya: (slashes the foe in the knee, almost severing the limb
with the blow) Ah, foul one, my sword bites deep!
fire troll #4: Graaargh! (falls to one knee, while clutching
the other, wounded knee)
Meanwhile, Mongo, unable to retrieve his weapon before his
troll's attack, appeared to be in trouble...
fire troll #2: (grabs the dwarf in its huge, clawed hands)
Yaaargh! (it tries to rip the small foe in half)
Mongo: Urgh! (he grabs one of the troll's wrists with both
hands) No...
fire troll #2: (confused, as its arm is slowly forced back)
Rngh?
Mongo: ...fucking...
fire troll #2: (struggling now) Grrr!
Mongo: ...WAY! (he forces the foe's arm back even further,
and the sound of snapping bones is heard)
fire troll #2: AAARGH! (it cradles its broken arm to its
side, while holding the dwarf in the other)
Mongo: (still dangling above the ground) Lemme go!!! (he
swings a mailed fist into the troll's face, connecting with
a satisfying "crunch") Eat knuckles, fucker!
fire troll #2: Graaargh! (it drops Mongo as blood fountains
from its ruined nose and mouth)
Mongo: (dashes between the troll's legs, diving for his hammer)
Arnold: (slashes at his foe again, ripping through muscle and
bone with his huge sword) Yah!
fire troll #3: (the headless torso, it staggers, then falls)
Arnold: Ah-nold strikes! (he kicks the twitching chunk of
carcass away) Yah!
Nearby, Nenya approached her foe, which was still on its
knees, wounded and perhaps stunned.
Nenya: Die! (she swings her sword, and the troll's head
parts from its shoulders, neatly) Shah!
fire troll #4: (its head rolls away, while its body just
stands in place, spurting blood at the ceiling)
Gorin: (busy helping Mongo gang up on his troll, he notices
the head roll by him) _Two_ headless trolls?!? This is too
much...
Nenya: Ah! This dungeoneering business isn't so difficult
after all!
Just then, the rain of fountaining troll blood fell,
splattering everything within ten feet, including the elf.
Nenya: (now drenched with foul gore) Ugh! Ptui!
Ged: (driving his own foe back with the magical force-blade)
Never gloat amidst combat- (he causes his sword to stab
the troll in the shoulder) -unless you've just cast a
fireball, or something like that. Then it's okay to gloat
a bit.
Nenya: (wiping at her face in disgust)
fire troll #1: (wounded from Ged's spell-sword, it rears up,
determined to charge forth, sword or no sword) Reaargh!
Bosco: (appears behind the big monster, and slices its ankle
viciously) Hey, better watch your feet!
Ged: Bosco?!?
Bosco: Yes! Yes, I am!
fire troll #1: (suddenly burdened with an ankle that can't
support its tremendous weight, it falls) Aaargh!
Bosco: (dodges nimbly aside) Whoa!
The trolls were muchly routed at this point; Arnold's was
slain, and Mongo, hammer in hand, was pounding his foe into
the stone floor. Ged and Bosco had effectively crippled and
stunned their troll, and Nenya's was decapitated.
Bosco: Gee, there sure are a lot of severed heads and other
parts around here!
Nenya: (brandishing her shortsword as she approaches the
fallen troll #1) That does tend to happen with specially
enchanted swords...
Bosco: Wow. (he wanders by, casually stabbing troll #1
in the throat, despite its flailing claws)
Gorin: (now standing between Mongo's foe and Bosco's, unsure
which to attack, he admires the halfling's deft swordplay and
daring maneuvers) Damn, he's quick.
Shortly, the savage fire-loving trolls were dispatched, and
the adventurers regained their breath, warily.
Ged: It's not over. They'll probably regenerate, you know.
Bosco: Well, we can't use fire to kill 'em for good.
Mongo: (wiping black blood from his hammer's head) Nope.
Arnold: Naaaa.
Nenya: Hmm. Ice? Cold?
Ged: (rummages through his pack) I think...yes! Boccob!
(he produces a decanter)
Gorin: Eh? This is no time for a drink.
Ged: No...not a drink. (he points the container's mouth at
one of the trolls' bodies, and removes the stopper, chanting
arcane magical syllables) A flood...
The item sent forth a gout of clear, cold water, dousing the
remains of the foul monster.
Bosco: Hoyl cow! Look!
Mongo: Shit...
Amazingly, the troll's body was melting! Flesh, muscle, and
even bone were consumed, not unlike they should have been if
placed within a blazing bonfire. Within scant seconds, nothing
remained of the grayish-red corpse.
Arnold: Melded troll bodies.
Gorin: Neat, isn't it.
Arnold: (not quite sure)
Nenya: (to Ged) An insightful choice.
Ged: Well, it made sense. (he turns the decanter upon another
troll corpse) Water and fire are, after all, elementally
opposed.
Arnold: Aaa. Of course.
Nenya: (to Ged) Say, could you douse me with that when you
finish with the bodies? I'm sort of...bloodied.
Ged: Sure. Just be thankful that the blood isn't your own.
Mongo: (nursing numerous bruises) Ugh...I need a rest.
Bosco: No time for rest, lazybones! (he scampers about
merrily) There's great treasure to be found!
Mongo: (considers punting the tiny thief across the room)
Go away.
Bosco: (turns to Gorin) Come on, let's go find the loot!
Gorin: Well, I suppose _somebody_ has to escort you...(they
head toward the northwestern exit)
Mongo: (still resting, along with Arnold) Bah.
Nenya: (freshly drenched, she wrings water from her outer
garments)
Arnold: (out of the corner of his eye, he observes the way
the elven maiden's wet clothes cling to her body, as wet
clothes are wont to do) Aaa.
Ged: (looking from one group to the other) Err...
Mongo: Fuck it. Let's go with Bosco before he gets into
real trouble.
Arnold: Yah. I'll be o-kay.
Mongo: Glad to hear it.
Ged: To the exit, then.
They followed the initial scouting team of Bosco and Gorin,
and found a small complex of rooms beyond the exit...

KEY TO ROOMS:
a entry room (# = broken ceiling)
b corpse room
c secret room
t huge hall w/trolls
u room w/troll lair
v empty room
x (still unexplored)
First, they discovered what appeared to be the trolls' nest.
The filthy place consisted of rotten brush, bits of furniture,
pillows, and the like. Bosco nosed around in this mess, but
only briefly, for the passage to the south of the lair seemed
to have caught his attention. This corridor led into a smaller,
somewhat rounded chamber, which was empty.
Bosco: (eyeing the floor)
Gorin: What? Do you see a secret hatch?
Bosco: Shh...(he wanders around the room, constantly changing
directions)
Ged: (enters, and observes the halfing's strange antics)
Let me guess...dance lessons?
Mongo: Hah. He needs 'em.
Arnold: Aaa?
Bosco had stopped, and was pointing at a section of floor
as he jumped up and down excitedly.
Bosco: There!
Mongo: What is it? (he examines the floor)
Bosco: Can you smash through that?
Mongo: Probably...but why? It's finished, worked stone.
Probably six inches thick, and a thousand years old.
Bosco: Yeah, yeah. But can you break it open?
Mongo: (senses a method to the halfling's madness) Sure, if
that's what you want...
The dwarf raised his hammer, and then brought it down upon
the stone floor, sending shards flying everywhere.
Mongo: (casually pries a sliver of stone from his forearm)
Better get back, people.
They did, and the dwarf resumed his demolishing work. It
only took half a dozen blows before he noticed something...
Mongo: Hey, the floor's sounding hollow now! (he hits the
stone again, and a large crack appears) We've hit a space
or cavity of some kind!
Bosco: No, not a space...a chest!
Indeed, the collapsing stone fragments revealed the top of
a metallic chest, a well-preserved one from the looks of it.
Despite the dust and rubble now scattered atop the thing,
the unmistakable glow of gold was visible.
Mongo: Well, I'll be damned!
Bosco: Yup. (he begins picking chunks of rock from the top of
the chest) Solid gold, I'd guess.
Ged: Boccob! (to Bosco) How did you know?
Bosco: (unable to remember if he ever told the party about his
ring of x-ray vision, he abruptly decides not to give away
any information) Special thief training. (he winks)
Ged: Oh. Well, we all have to have our little secrets...
Nenya: (having already caught on, as she suspects Ged has)
Truly.
They wasted no time clearing the rubble away, and were soon
faced with an interesting dilemma: the chest, heavy as it was,
couldn't be lifted from its hole in the floor. Even Mongo's
strength was useless without the leverage to apply it.
Mongo: Damn.
Bosco: (to Ged) Can't you just use magic to lift the chest?
'Cause if you could, I'd sure like to get inside it.
Ged: No...I have no levitation spells.
Nenya: I do, though. (she begins spellcasting)
Ged: Hmph.
Bosco: Cool!
Arnold: (looking at the chest) Aaa.
Gorin: Wonder what's inside?
Nenya: (completes her spell, and then gets a strained look on
her face) Odd...the chest won't lift.
Ged: Maybe it's anchored somehow.
Bosco: Darn it!
Nenya: It's...no use. I cannot move it.
Mongo: Well, shit. There's only one way left - we'll have to
get the miners in here.
Bosco: But...my treasure! We must open it, now!
Mongo: We can...but they need to dig around it...get ropes
and levers in place. Once it's out, we can check for traps,
then ransack.
Ged: Hmm. Think of the mighty magicks that might be contained
within.
Nenya: Yes...
Arnold: Shall I go up and fedtch the miners?
Ged: Yes, good Arnold. Bring the dwarves.
Gorin: (looking around) We could move on, explore that other
side passage from the main room.
Ged: While the miners work on this...yea.
Mongo: Sounds like a plan.
They took a break for lunch, and the miners got to work on
the chest. This was to be a long and arduous task, though,
and the adventurers were ready to explore further before the
miners had even cleared a third of the rock from around the
golden chest. They began to eye the northeastern exit from
the large chamber.
Mongo: Shall we?
Ged: Let's.
Venturing into this area, they were disappointed, for they
quickly found it to be a dead end, consisting of a single
nearly-square room. The chamber was lined with pillars, but
was otherwise empty.

KEY TO ROOMS:
a entry room (# = broken ceiling)
b corpse room
c secret room
t huge hall w/trolls
u room w/troll lair
v empty room
x second empty room...
However, this room was most certainly _not_ empty, as the
adventurers soon learned...
Bosco: (out of the corner of his eye, he notices one of the
pillars detach itself from the wall and assume a humanoid
shape) Uh...look out!
Mongo: (whirls about - just in time to get smashed over the
helm with one of the new foe's fists, spraying a white
powder everywhere) Eyagh! (he reels about)
The pillar-turned-statue was about ten feet in height, and
appeared to be fashioned of a grainy, whitish substance. The
thing moved awfully quickly for a statue...
statue: (bashes Arnold, sending him flying backward, bleeding)
Arnold: (in extreme pain, and partially covered with whitish
powder) Aaa!
Ged: (guiding his Mordenkainen's Sword toward the foe) What
the hell is that thing?
Nenya: (spellcasting) Beats me.
Ged: (slams the magical sword into the whitish statue) For
Boccob!
statue: (staggers slightly, then veers toward the elf)
Ged: Uh-oh.
Gorin: (charges the statue)
Bosco: (grabs a pinch of the white powder off of the floor,
and sniffs it) Huh?
Gorin: (axe whirling, he chops at the statue) Yah!
statue: (chipped a bit)
Gorin: Damn...it's like the thing's got armor on.
Arnold: (stands, shakily) Pain.
Gorin: What?
Arnold: The wounbs from the stadtue...they hurt. And that
makes me mad...(he leaps forth, slashing wildly)
statue: (nicked in several places, it recoils, driven back
a bit)
Gorin: Yeah!
Nenya: (finishes her spell, and sends a magical arrow toward
the statue)
The arrow hit the thing, and turned into a greenish jelly
upon doing so.
Ged: Acid...
Nenya: Melf's Acid Arrow, to be exact.
statue: (emitting strange vapors as the acid eats at its body)
Arnold: (with Gorin, he awaits the foe's next move) Aaa.
Mongo: (to one side, rubbing his eyes) Can't see...stings
like hell...
Ged: Eh?
Bosco: (to no one in particular) Salt!
Nenya: What's that?
Bosco: I said, salt! The thing's made out of salt!
Gorin: Huh?!?
Arnold: Aaa. Thad's why my wounbs hurt so much.
Nenya: And that explains Mongo's blindness.
Bosco: See? I told ya, it's made out of salt!
Ged: Oh, it is, is it? (he begins rummaging through his pack)
Hold the thing off, for a moment!
Gorin: Gotcha. (he and Arnold move in)
statue: (bashes each warrior with an arm, decking both)
Arnold: (getting to his feet, slowly) Ow.
Gorin: (staggering around, on his knees) URgh.
Bosco: I'll take care of it! (he floats into the air, his
sword brandished boldly) Hah!
statue: (swats at the halfling, who dodges the attacks)
Ged: (holds his decanter of endless water) Time for a bath.
(he speaks a command word, and the vessel fires a powerful
geyser of water at the statue)
It worked - the thing was driven back, slowly but surely.
Amazingly enough, its body had begun to dissolve under the
jet of clear water, and Ged stepped in closer, keeping the foe
under the aquatic barrage. The others retreated, but after a
minute or so, there was no need - the statue of salt was gone.
Ged: (shuts the decanter's flow off) Salt...a salt golem?
Nenya: Yes, I believe so.
Ged: Me too.
Mongo: Hey, could you give me some clean water, for my eyes?
Ged: Sure. (he allows a trickle to issue forth from the item)
Mongo: Ah...much better.
Arnold: The powder-man is gone.
Gorin: Yep.
Bosco: (searching for treasure) Nothing here...no secret doors
or chests...nothing. (he begins thinking of the large golden
chest in the other room) Ahh...
Gorin: What's this? (he steps on, then picks up a small, white,
grainy lump from the mess on the floor) Hmm.
Bosco: Lemme see. (using a tiny knife, he carefully picks
hardened white powder from the thing) What the...oh. Oh.
Mongo: What'd you find?
Bosco: Well, Gorin found it. (he holds the item up for all to
see)
Appearing huge in the halfling's tiny hands, a large, clear
diamond sparkled and glistened through the patches Bosco had
cleaned away.
Ged: A fine jewel, that.
Bosco: No kidding. This'd be worth five, no, ten thousand coins
of gold. At least. (he picks away bits of crusted salt) At
least.
Mongo: Good.
Ged: (notices his Mordenkainen's sword flicker, then die out)
Hmm. (he thinks about ways to make the thing last longer)
They returned to the miners and their excavation project, but
the chest still wasn't out of the floor. This left the party
with some extra time to ponder things.
Ged: Hmm. (he rests on a small boulder, his brow knit)
Nenya: What troubles you, teacher?
Ged: I was just thinking...these trolls can't have lived for
all this time down here, cut off from everything else. Some
other passage - an exit, maybe - must exist. Somewhere.
Mongo: You know, you're right.
Ged: Of course.
Bosco: All we have to do is find it. (he begins scanning the
nearby walls)
next time : an old friend revisited
notes : Here's something I did awhile back, but forgot to
include in an episode. Until now, anyways.
