Strangely Shrinking City

- Retelling
- We gathered some treasure, got ready to roll
When Fenn and Vale started to look at a scroll
Which had some elaborate plan for a spell
But they couldn't remember the wording too well
We finally walked out of that darn cursed place
And the ruins all vanished with nary a trace
Some planar shenanigans must have occurred
And back towards the city our party was spurred
But something quite odd seemed to be going on
A lot of the city's citizens were gone
Some buildings were missing their names and what's more
It turned out that nowhere we saw any doors
A demon escorted us back to the inn
We didn't know what we'd discover within
But Baraxus and his stew were still waiting there
This whole shrinking city thing had us quite scared
We asked dear Baraxus if he had a clue
About the town's whole "I'm shrinking" issue
He seemed to think that there was nothing amiss
Then he disappeared and Velora was pissed
"You killed him" she shouted and wept as she left
So Panthniper pounced in a move that was deft
Velora was pinned in the jaws of the beast
We all were quite stunned you could say in the least
Vale cast a silence to settle the troop
And some went upstairs so that we could regroup
And figure out what it was we should do next
And then something happened that had us all vexed
From out of the shadows appeared guys in hoods
And we got the sense they were up to no good
They were looming behind each member of the team
We started to hope this was all a bad dream
