Mooey charges through the flames, Caleb lassos from the shadows, and Thaddeus earns his title as “Daddy Thaddy” in the thick of battle.But when the smoke clears and the camp falls silent, the question remains: are the victors still the heroes?

In this episode, the group ventures deep into the towering cave of the fallen giant, where every echo feels like a warning and every shadow hides a secret. As they push past collapsed tunnels and ancient bones, they uncover the hidden treasures buried within—forgotten relics, powerful artifacts, and something far more dangerous than gold. But the deeper they go, the clearer it becomes: the cave isn’t as empty as it seems. Something watches. Something waits.Links:https://basicfantasy.orghttps://basicfantasy.neocities.org/ (WIP Site)
The group took advantage of the prints in the snow and tracked the cyclops to the moutain area before the snow covered his tracks. They ran into some Gnolls and talked their way out of the situation when Rob's character cast charm person the Gnoll leader. At night when camping the group noticed orcs traveling from an area in the mountains.. In the morning they tracked the orc prints in the snow to the cyclops cave, where they defeated a bunch of orcs and then found the Cyclops' main chamber.Links:https://basicfantasy.orghttps://basicfantasy.neocities.org/ (WIP Site)
While camping that night, the group pulls watch duty—and ends up attracting a giant grizzly bear. Chaos breaks out. Another blunder mid-fight sends poor Robin flying—again—dropping hard in the middle of the brawl. They take the bear down, barely holding it together, and drag themselves back to the village to patch up and recover. Just as they think they’ve earned a break, the next morning hits them like a war drum—a giant storms into the village, shouting for tribute and ready to smash anything in his way.Links:https://basicfantasy.orghttps://basicfantasy.neocities.org/ (WIP Site)
