The group readied to fight the Shambling Mounds that emerged from the moss pit when a figure following them from Crooked Post finally caught up. Orog, a friend and protector of Dayna, joined the fray
Dispatching the mounds, the group introduced themselves to Orog and made the decision to continue traveling together to Queen's Meet through the Elisar Woods
Bogul was also able to grab a parchment and magic boots from a corpse in the moss pit
The parchment was a drawing of a stone wall with certain stones outlined and an unknown script. There were newer words scribbled saying "G says this ain't elven" and "DD says he knows a guy who can translate"
The group reached the end of the woods to find the skies filled with griffons from Roost
A group of wood woads who had been following them decided the group had respected the forest and gave them the bark of a dead tree from Galdarion Forest, which proved to shield the group from the griffon's attacks as they traveled toward Queen's Meet.
As they neared, a Queen's Meet patrol member met with them, a centaur named Jacinta. She asked if they required a guide and seemed disappointed when they claimed they didn't need one.
The group hurried into Queen's Meet as the gates were closed for the night.
