Exploring Thundertree

Our party sets out into the village of Thundertree in the hopes of finding a certain statuette anywhere else than the treasure hoard of the dragon.

Synopsis
After meeting the druid Reidoth, Caldarion still has some questions about his mentor Beofir and his own past. He learns that Beofir died of natural causes. Furthermore, he learns that his mother was an elf from Silverymoon who died in childbirth, his father was, as far as Reidoth knows, already dead, and therefore Beofir took him in due to pity.

The party decides that, before setting out to see whether the statuette is in the dragon's hoard, if it might be anywhere else hidden away in Thundertree. Having been warned against the Giant Spiders in the house at the base of the hill, they approach the house carefully and see whether they can burn down the spider webs. They did burn down, but not in the desired scope, so Caldarion cast Speak with Animals in order to talk to the spiders. He intimidated them into not attacking them, threatening with killing them all. Then he asked the spiders if they knew something about a statuette, which they answered with them not knowing anything about these. Upon further questioning they remained silent, which led Caldarion to believe they were lying. The ensuing fight was quickly over, but the spiders did not have what they were looking for. They continued looking through houses, meeting further Twig Blights and Ash Zombies on the way.

Eventually, they came to a house whose windows were shuttered and the door closed. Upon discovering that it was also locked, Nate knocked on the door. The people inside the house did not seem overly welcoming, but they were civil. After some persuading, the leader, a man named Favric, opened the door. He wore a black mask that was issued after to image of a dragon, and a black and gray cloak. Favric told them that they were here to make a deal with the dragon, but did not seem willing to share the details of this deal. After saying that he knew nothing about any statuette, the party left them for the time being. They continued searching, where they met more Twig Blights and Zombies. However, they were not successful in finding the statuette, so they returned to the druid Reidoth when the sun set.

The next morning, they decided the search through the eastern part of the town they had not yet explored. They fought against some Twigh Blights and just engaged into a fight with Ash Zombies when the session ended.
