Dru checked herself and her companions. "I'm out of healing magic. Everyone is in pretty bad shape. I don't know how much longer we can go on safely," she announced after her assessment. Everyone except Laralute was at less than half their health. Since LL took the potion, she is at 100%.

"We can keep going a little while longer," Olaf replied. "Right Teddy?"

He nodded the stuffed bear's head.

"I suppose," The halfling added.

"I can take the lead when possible," Laralute offered.

Drusilla thought for a moment and applied bandages to herself, Olaf and Slappy.

"Let's continue on, then," Dru said. "We'll evaluate how we're doing after each area we search."

It's time for a new event:

The Legendary bird encounter has already been played and was a one-time event. Roll again.

A little while later, the party spots a tree similar to the others. This is the third and final time this encounter can be used. Laralute has the group wait a safe distance on the road. She'll approach with caution to check the tree.

Roll 1d6.

Laralute is bitten by a centipede. Save at level 3.

Wolf attack!

Laralute will try to bribe them first by throwing the bird carcass out.

1 or 4=1
2 or 5=2
3 or 6=3

Four or higher, the wolves will fight.

Time for a new event:

As the group heads down the trail, they hear a voice. "You there! I issue you a challenge," it calls out. Roll 1d6 to see who this mysterious challenger is.

"Who said that," Slappy asked looking around puzzled. A tiny fairy appears. She looks at the group for a moment. "Uh, nevermind," she says and flutters away.

"No, wait! Come back! We'll...," Slappy encourages, but the fairy does not return.

Time for a new event!

This event has already been done. Reroll:

Another hill giant passes by. It may or may not be the same giant the group saw earlier. The ground shakes under his thunderous foot steps. The group has enough warning to get off the road and take cover in the brush. As the giant passes he drops something. Roll 1d6:

The corpse of an orc falls, or rather is discarded by the giant. It is freshly dead. Slappy moves to check the corpse...

Roll: 1d6+1 (needs higher than a 4)
Which orc? 1d6?
Gold: 3d6

The body is Derrk, a level 5 orc reaver boss who carried a long whip on his belt (which is lost). The giant does not notice Slappy as he takes the orc's purse containing 15 gold and a ring.

"This is it! We have the ring," Slappy says as he holds up the final ring triumphantly.
