   Dungeon: Redbelly Mine

  

   Set-Up

   First Thoughts:

  • Filnjar in Shor's Stone has tasked me with clearing some spiders out of the town's mine.

  • A small mine infested with Frostbite Spiders.

     Note1: This area is populated with Frostbite Spiders, and they can poison you.
     Note2: Redbelly Mine contains no chests nor a boss.

   Play-By-Play:

  • We are awoken early by the sound of a hammer pounding hot steel...
  • A blacksmith in this tiny village, maybe we can get rid of some of the junk we picked up at the fort.

  • We approach the soot covered Nord; a strong man, but something about his eyes hints to a hidden concern.

  • After Lydia and I conduct our business with him it becomes clear.
  • This beast of a man, Filnjar, begs us to stay, tears well up in his eyes.
  • He tells us of how the mine has been the lifeblood of Shor's Stone for year, but was recently overrun with horrific beasts, Frostbite Spiders.

  • We had encountered these massive spiders before in our travel and have become quite skilled in dispatching them.

  • Lydia and I offer our help and head down to the mine.
  • Seeing the entrance, we can only imagine what lies beyond the beginnings of this cold, dark void.

  • We enter....
  • Lydia and I fight our way through the massive webs; they have been here for a while, it seems.

  • I come to a wooden bridge and Lydia points out three of the huge beasts; a reminder of the danger they pose hangs, tangled in web, above us.

  • I ready my axe as they have seen us, their fangs begin leaking venom as they advance.

  • Lydia swings and her blade crushes the creature's exoskeleton like stale bread.
  • I race down the steps and send another off the edge.
  • Two more spiders wait at the base, but my arrows cut into their weak, carapass.
  • The bottom level is covered in webs, dessicated corpses and abandoned picks.
  • A lantern casts a dim light around the room; the spiders are gone.
  • We return to Filnjar with the news.
