Year of the Warrior Princess
Hammer 8
Over the past several days the group has been harrying the Drow host by driving on ahead of it and trying to slow it down as best as they can. The party chose this path after discussing their options. Some forces such as Ellanzo and the Army of the Sword Coast wanted them to recon paths and clear obstacles to make their army move faster so they could get down in time to rendezvous with the other armies allied against the Drow. The army of Corymr lead by their King Azoun V, and the army of Myth Drannor led by the elven emissary of the Eladrin gods, Elladon asked that the group slow down the Drow forces so that they could catch up before the Drow were to make it to the location of Lolth's great ritual that would see the death of Riddick take place. This is the path they have taken over the last few days. There are many minor scrapes but their first real fight takes place under water (at least at the start), against a water drake and two water archons guarding a lesser known path that an army like the Drow would never think to use. Going this way saves them several leagues but it is fraught with dangers such as the water creatures. They get past them and then travel on for a while unhindered. At last coming up to a large cavern that the Drow would need to traverse, they surprise a group of Driders sent to guard the exit to the cavern. The guards put up a strong fight and wound Solomon several times. The battle wisdom of Hannibal is ever present and the holy warrior duo of Krux and Lucius press the enemy at both sides. Causing confusion amongst the enemy ranks Lief and his retinue of spirit companions. Jax proves invaluable once again controlling the fight by immobilizing the enemy at the right times.
Overcoming the Driders, the group aided by the Justicar and Landon set fire to the large mushrooms in the cavern, causing the entire area to be unusable for several days as the fires burn out. The group presses on, now days ahead of the Drow forces as they try and locate their friend Riddick and get to him before the Demon Queen of Spiders can.
