Moments
The Plan Paid Off
The party walked into a cavern holding four ogres with a plan built two sessions ahead — and walked out at level 4 with every ogre dead and every character standing.
Back-to-Back Nat 20s: Goblins Wiped, Ogre Bloodied
Elaris drops a nat 20 to confirm the goblins are dead. Barzer looks through the window and does it again — straight onto the ogre.
Seven Hit Points
One failed death save. One bonus action. Seven hit points between alive and dead.
The Rats Reveal Their Master Fed Them a Child
Mid-interrogation, the rats reveal their goblin master fed them a hairless child — and the party works out that the human hostages are being fed to the rats. When the pack names a live human as its price, Elaris refuses, pulls her hood down and steps back behind Barzer to let the fight start.
The Chase
One ogre down, one running. The smart play is to hold. They don't hold.
Bardic Inspiration: Always Buff Before the Fight Starts
Chris coaches Elaris on the most important Bard timing rule: Bardic Inspiration goes out before initiative, not during combat. She immediately puts it into practice.
The Soup Is Human Stew
Barzer tells Elaris to investigate the goblin cauldron with Mage Hand, she does, and the pot answers — human bones, an eyeball, and finally an entire hand riding up on the ladle. The "soup" the party ignored all session is made of people, and Barzer names it: "stew-men."
Elaris Checks the Party Before She Checks Her Damage
With Theren down to 7 HP, Elaris stops her own turn halfway through to ask what his health is, then rebuilds it to attack the pudding and heal him back to 20 in the same round.
