Storm King's part 22 - GUHHHH

As we enter the big hall we are amazed by the immensity off all we see. The biggest  creature we ever encountered lays before our eyes. The goblins are feeding her immense piles  of food, the less careful ones are also eaten among the food they deliver.


The obese creature stands on a pile of shit[1], not being able to move or  not being willing to move. Nevertheless she only listens to us because we promise her food in exchange of the peace with the humans. At the beginning she seems almost interested or maybe just intrigued but she doesn’t make any hostile action towards us until we mention the shell that we need in order to visit Hekaton’s Hall Room.


Mentioning the shell drives her mad and she starts attacking us and also commanding the awake forces to do the same. Some of the giants that slept trough the entire negotiations start to wake up one by one. At this time Groin has a most useful idea to try to banish the monstrosity. Not being very charismatic GUHHHH disappears from this plane leaving just a pile of shit behind.

Not having a leader and also driven by our words, some of the giants start fighting each other for power, who will be the next leader of the Hill Giants?[2]

This moment of chaos gives Selene the time to look through the refuse, after a few attempts she manages to find a small treasure in gold and also the most wanted shell.[3]


This is no time to stay and see what happens next, so off we go with the smelly prize in our pockets.[4]

A flash-back or maybe a future reading dream will bring us a scene from our old friends Pazuzu, Random and Nixi, the ending of this we will find out maybe in our future adventures…[5]


[1] More like lounges on it.
[2] Some choice words by Solid did the trick. Also: "Guh died for our sins!"
[3] And also get covered in crap.
[4] Teleport spells are useful.
[5] Selene does seem to have some rather odd scrying powers.
