Could not find bullywugs. Met Furbolg and arranged meeting. Our canoes were deliberately smashed. Two days earlier 5th of Highspring In preparation for a hopefully peaceful parlay with the local bullywugs, and with the knowledge of their attraction to shiny or valuable objects, Shaena had the clever notion to decorate a colorful scarf with copper coins. I don't know if it will be appealing to humanoid amphibians, but the only costs are a scarf and the equivalent of one gold piece. 6th of Highspring After a few hours of paddling, we pulled the canoes ashore and for the remainder of the day trekked through the grass and muck in search of the bullywugs. On our way we sighted a large bird, a crane. It was not just large, but unbelievably massive. It could have stomped on me with one talon and not even noticed. Later that night during my watch, I heard a sound that could have been a large bird from the south. Perhaps it was that giant crane. 7th of Highspring
After wandering rather aimlessly for a while ahead of us on a small hill we spotted a large green humanoid, much larger than an average human. He was apparently surveying the land, faced away from us. Shaena attempted to approach the creature quietly, but the sound of her pulling her feet out of the muck revealed her presence. The green man turned with a worried expression and to my surprise, made a familiar gesture indicating that we should be quiet. His physical form then shrank by almost half, apparently intentionally. We then all hid and I formed the image of a patch of grass over Shaena’s precarious position. Just moments later a small group of reptilian humanoids walked by. I couldn’t see them very well, but we managed to stay unnoticed. Once the area was clear, he grew back to his original size and slowly approached us. Aredhel ran toward the creature in excitement in what appeared to be a burst of gratitude… and idiocy. The creature was horrified, but managed to keep Aredhel at arms length. We approached peacefully and Theobold managed to converse with the creature. He’s a Furbolg named Dufdor, also known as the Watcher of the Southern Waters. He is not pleased with our encroachment into the Black River Island and worries for the stability of the ecology. He warned us of the Hags and how they manipulate the native creatures to gain power. One troublesome Hag in particular is named Wicked Poly Frog Wart (I’m not sure how many names she has, but that is what it sounded like.). WPFW also has sisters and all hags can take many forms, so it would be best if we kept our guard up for such deceptive and manipulative creatures. We have arranged a meeting to negotiate with Dufdor about our further activities on Black River Island. He will be at the Southern most point on the next full moon, the 14th. When we returned to the canoes, they had been sabotaged! Deliberately smashed to bits. I took an identifiable piece back to the canoe rental as proof, and to relay the warning to other adventurers.
