HAPPY NEW YEAR!
- The Trevek mission party has been traveling north for about three days from Runespoke in the direction of Pradak
- Rusty finds himself in a deep valley between a bunch of sand dunes. It is midafternoon and it's very warm out. He is not grappled and no in the Shadow Realm.
- Rusty climbs to the top of the nearest sand dune and he sees off to the east there may be something moving
- To the south he can see the barest glimpse of some mountains, but they are hazy and indistinct
- Rusty begin moving towards the east and the movement that he can see
- He walks for several hours
- The Trevek mission party can also see something moving to the north of them traveling towards them. It seems to be large enough to be a group traveling either by foot or with wagons
- Rusty comes up over a rise and he can see a caravan but also another group of travelers moving towards the caravan. He also hears a loud buzzing sound coming from behind him.
- Rusty turns around and sees large insect looking creatures. They are black, have two legs, four arms, and are universally carrying trident spears
- The insects basically buzz him and fly straight towards the caravan.
- Rusty runs after the bugs.
- The insect creatures land around the caravan and immediately begin attacking and grabbing valuables
- A noxious green cloud immediately envelops the area around the caravan
BATTLE TO PROTECT THE CARAVAN
- Renalla lowers her hood and you see a blue tiefling with horns that curl backwards. She shouts "Hey, cut it out!" The bugs pay no heed, so she whistles and over the sand dune the spirit of a red dragon flies in out of nowhere over to her side and then she moves off to the left

END OF BATTLE
- The poisonous cloud around the caravan dissipates, but everyone in it and all the pack animals are dead
- The RSD fucks off
- Lephith picks Kip up and put them on their shoulder saying "Kip up" as they do so.
- Rusty comes over and much conversation is had
- The caravan is hauling mostly food and other trade goods like textiles
- Lephith puts Kip on the driver seat of the first caravan, takes away the dead people, and unhooks the horses and tries to pull the cart, which she can but it's hard and slow
- Kip takes the reins (still attached to the horses) and goes a little crazy, it does nothing.
- Rusty tells his story
- They gather some supplies from the caravan then head west (where the bugs came from) for a little while then make camp for the night
