- Wandering Monsters rolled (100 xp)

Total: 340 xp

Events:

- After spending the night on the island, the party suits up for another trip into the dungeon. Busting out the new cooking system, Baral puts together a nice hearty snakemeat stew with garlic and onions. (50 xp)
- Checked out the temple on Elatior and tested the Ynn portal in the garden. Drawing a door on one of the walls, the party was able to enter The Gardens. They are immediately presented with a small hedge maze and an unusually artistic pair of skeletons. (50 xp)
- Collecting the bones as loot, they made their way into the maze, finding a strang bonsai turtle and a spellbook in the center. (50 xp)
- Moving deeper into the Gardens, the next layer contained an herb garden full of strange hallucinogens and some poisonous plants. They also found some strange stairs that led back up a layer to the hedge maze. (50 xp)
- Continuing deeper to level 2, they found a large life size chess board, with some sentient chess pieces arguing with each other. They carefully bypassed them to leave them to their business. (50 xp)
- The next layer contained a large rose garden, and the party was attacked by bees that rusted their armor and weapons. The bees were defeated through effective combination of a blackfire bomb and a very tanky dwarf. (50 xp)
- Baral decided to eat the rose in the center of the room, giving him strange black vinelike tattoos (50 xp)
- The next layer gave way to a cemetery, full of graves to dig up and spooky scary skeletons. The skeletons were a bit miffed that people would try to dig up their graves, and ended up agreeing to disagree with the party. A few of the other graves contained sweet loot (50 xp)
- Continuing deeper, the next layer had more cemetery, but upside down across a massive chasm, the land twsiting around like a mobius strip. Most of the party made it across safely until a massive carp-headed crocodile came flying in on bat wings to terrorize the party (50 xp)
- The party made quick work of the hybrid-beast, but not before it seriously injured Branka with it's weird carp mouth (50 xp)
- They decided to continue on, finding a massive pit of molten metal in the next layer, surrounded by snow and ice. Taking the time to warm themselves up, Baral put together another helping of stew to get Branka back on her feet. (50 xp)
- With renewed vigor, they pressed on to layer 7, a room with a handful of hothouses in it. One of them had more valuable skeletons, and another was full of empty gold birdcages. Naturally, the party looted all of it except for the one with green slime. (50 xp)
- The rest of the time was spent making it back along the way they came, leaving through the door and back to the real world. (50 xp)
