In Game Day: Late-Spring
The team arrived on the island by Hollow Tree and found themselves on the beach. They found a trail leading into the jungle, and followed it. They heard monkeys and encountered a couple of Wood Sprites, who they shot out of the sky.
The team made their way north and found a spring of water, and then a village. In the village, they befriended the inhabitants. Hector offered food, and they were allowed to climb up into the village tree huts. They chatted with several inhabitants, who all seemed like they were under Wood Sprite enchantment- caught up in who they were and such. When they met the village archer, Hector suggested a friendly competition. Philip lost. Chatting with the villagers, they learned there was a “crazy” fellow in the jungle, a couple of girls fishing on the beach, and the priest was away at a jungle temple of sorts.
The team said farewell and went into the jungle again. They found the “crazy” guy, and Hector shared the Great Rescue with him, which he accepted.
The team then found the temple. They found it empty. There was a tunnel into a basement that had various gems and animals and such. They controlled any greedy impulses they had, and came back topside. A possessed tiger showed up, the object of worship. William was scared to engage, but Hector counseled him to take courage. Edward and Philip got to the tiger first. Edward got injured, but distracted it with his swords, Hector said a battle prayer for Philip, and Philip killed the beast with one swing of his axe.
Hector bandaged up Edward and gave him some healing potion. The priest saw the whole scene, and refused to talk to anyone.
The team headed to the beach and found the girls fishing. They tried to share the Great Rescue, and one of the girls accepted! They went back to the Hollow Tree and went home with the two new converts.
