- Our party awakened the next day to see
That old Rys had only woke up once to pee
And zoned out Velora had slept but a wink
Will asked the poor elf "so, now, what do you think?"
"Devil's are tricksters and out for themselves"
"The don't have the morals of humans or elves"
"They connive and they cheat like you wouldn't believe"
"But darn if she isn't our one way to leave"
And so we decided Bolgranna we'd free
But only would do it for a modest fee
Some youth for our bard and our pit fighter Will
And a promise that none of our party be killed
We'd also like to see the trees in our plane
And Fenn would like more of his god's traits explained
And Mugs needs a muffin, leave Rampart alone
C'mon now, Bolgranna, please throw us a bone
All of these things came to us at great cost
Which mostly involved lots of mortals' souls lost
So now there's some deals that we all should not break
Like how I must tell you Bolgranna's just great!
Bolgranna examined Fenn's quite shifty scroll
And helped us determine what should be our roles
To help her escape from her tight metal sphere
It seemed the procedure was simple and clear
Selene would shoot ice, Hoj would smite divine
Fenn's poison bugs Vale would divert just fine
Fenn shot necrotic and Rys, our fine drake
Would breathe out some fire, call him "Fire Snake"
Will would be waiting for all us to cast
Then she would free the trapped Bolgranna at last
All she must do is pull free a small rod
Then Bolgranna could go and see her god
We each shot at our orbs all at the same time
And everything seemed to be going just fine
When Will was barraged with effects from our spells
And that's when our plan seemed to go straight to hell
With two tries, the rod, it slipped right from Will's grasp
It seemed that we might not be up to the task
Then Mugs came a-running to give an assist
Because at our fumbling, Bolgranna was pissed
The rod was removed and the spell was undone
We all took some damage which wasn't much fun
Bolgranna appeared just as tall as a tree
And that was the last thing our party would see
We woke up to find ourselves lying in snow
What happened to us, well, we really don't know
But Bolgranna had sent us to Veran's Stead
And fulfilled her bargains just like she had said
Fenn got his info, 'niper got a blade
Mug's muffin was the best one ever made
Will had her coat back and, well, I, for one,
Had been returned back to age 21
But all of these gifts came with their strings attached
Fenn was now flawed, Juniper's blade was black
Mug's muffin seemed to hold all of our gaze
Bolgranna filled my head with her "glory days"
But we are now home and our party is whole
And that has always been everyone's goal
Who knows of what next we might all run afoul
For now I'm content on the back of this owl
