2 - Old Svalich Road

The session started where the last one ended off. We took off to the backside of the church where the graveyard was. Digging a grave took a while, so while Doomslayer, Abholos, and Ismark started working on digging, Strunk and Terrak went back into the town to get Ireena. Time passed by and when the grave was finally dug the ceremony started. Doomslayer held the funeral and Abholos said a few words. Just after the speech Abholos noticed a man in a coat standing just outside the fence. Strahd had been watching the entire thing and had came to converse. He also had two wolves. He said things (FILL PLEASE).

After the funeral the group, now containing Ireena, started on their way to Vallaki. They decided on a route to take and chose to go the shorter route via the lake, that would be slightly closer to Castle Ravenloft. They walked past the bridge to the crossroad where they all got an image of a hanged man.

Walking by the lake the group found the same Vistani group that the players traveled with from Daggerford. They had set up camp and was just there playing music and hanging out. The Vistani greeted the group and told them about a soothsayer(?) that had a tent in their camp. The group decided to enter the tent for some fortunes. All of them seemed to try to help the group in stopping Stradh and leaving Barovia, which also seemed strange considering they got the fortunes in a Vistani camp, but that will hopefully be figured out later. Abholos wasn't too happy about these new fortunes, talking about how they needed to avoid anything a soothsayer would say.

It was starting to become evening so there was a discussion if continuing on was a smart idea. A vote was even held, three against two on continuing. But that decision was quickly handled when they group followed the path into a cliff. Not wanting to climb over the cliff to continue the group returned back to the Vistani to stay for the night. Strunk and now Ivellios was out fishing, while Doomslayer and Terrak listened to a quick story told by the Vistani. The night was uneventfull.

Returning back to the crossroad and then continuing on the longer, more elevated, road the group matched on. A pressence was felt by Abholos, even seeing a figure out in the brushes of the forest on their way forward. But nothing more than being spied on happened. They pressed on to Morgantha s mill.

At the mill they were greeted by a lady, explaining she was one of Morganthas daughters. Terrak who didnt like the idea of visiting the mill waited outside in protest. A sound was heard from the floor above, but nothing too out of the ordinary thought the players. Abholos and Strunk both bought some pie and ate it. At the later parts of the visit, Morgantha herself came walking down the road towards the mill with a larger bag on her back. The lady whome had been talking a bit with the group inside quickly hid away a piece of paper.

The group quickly became quite suspicious of Morganthas bag and Terrak decided to cut it open with his dagger. To everyone surprise a small child fell out. Bound over hands and legs and with a thing covering his mouth so he couldnt scream. The battle was on.

Morgantha and her two daughters transformed into hags and both clawed, bit and used magic on the players. Strunk was first to leave the fight. He grabed the now released child and used all of his powers running away from the hags. The rest of the group decided to run away too since they were losing the battle but Terrak couldnt stand the thought of children being made into pies and charged back in. Outside the fight was continuing with Morgantha whome had ran after Strunk. She managed to put Strunk to sleep and take the child back, the players decided they couldn't stop her and let her go.

That's where session 2 ended. With four members of the group outside, and Terrak still inside the mill, fighting against the two daughters.
