Sinjin, his Friends, and the Nasty Frogs

The brave party continued their current quest to find the Sage Lansa.  En route to the lost peaks the party encountered Beh-ean, a Shaman, who proved to instrumental later in the day's combat for healing.  While traveling the party encountered Sinjin, his skeletal archers and several storm shards.  The party recalled meeting Sinjin before in the prisons of Waterdeep.  Sinjin and his band refused to surrender and attacked the party.  The party succeeded, after several members were near death, to defeat Sinjin and his thugs.  From Sinjin, the party learned:

• The Mark of Thuulak has created a blight on the wildlife in the area.
• The Mark has a similar effect of a spell scar from the spell plague.
• Lansa is known as the Prophet of the spire.
• Disciples of Thuulak find their way to Lansa.
• To find Lansa one must traverse the Hated Woods, cross the Stone Bridge and climb the mountain.
• It is important not to offend Lansa.

A piece of Eternal Chalk was found.  When the party finally killed Sinjin, a black smoke enveloped him and took his body.

The party rested and healed, then continued the quest to Lansa.  In doing so, they encountered a muddy bogg filled with Bullywogs, specifically a Mud Lord, some Muckers and some Twitchers.  The party defeated them, however, not without some difficulty.

The party then encountered a not-so-friendly Elf band. The party used the coin given to them by Yinkin to communicate with him.  He was able to speak to the Elf leader, Legolas, and secured the party safe passage (at least from the Elves) through the Hated Woods.

ps - Feanor, can you take the lead in attacking the biggest threats?  I tire of death and resurrection.
