squirrel attack

we're in a hole

LEEEET'S GO, ONGO BONGO~~!

We find the symbol of Piek on the walls, and a grumbly squirrel who says we need to hurry because whatever we don't want goes in the pile. Odh cleans off the mural. It's just the Piek symbol again. The squirrel says we can go in. Kaa asks why there's debris being tossed down, and why they got tossed down too. Gets told she answered her own question, decides to log a complaint with management.

Kaa gives squirrel an existential crisis, learns he's basically been working forever. He mentions something vague about how there used to be a village.

Side room, new murals! First: Several gods, Delal, Skellal, Piek (a very skinny squirrel, skeletal, with tiny body and huge tail, serving drinks to other gods.)

Pony says not like that fucker up there, but I need everyone to see him again.

Next mural! end of the party. food/drink gone, gods upset and yelling, and there's a hunched, shadowy figure in the distance being cast out. Piek is still visible, and is trying to get the shadowy figure to come back. Angry gods are Craig, Delal, Kallero.

Kaa rips back some vines and finds a "trash chute."

We head out and check the other shitty door. Two more murals! First: Piek deep in the woods, in the back is his home/hearth/party, running after the person being cast out. Person being cast out has kind of a black scaled serpentine head, green eyes with vertical slit.

Second: Piek standing food on the ground, pinkish glow, cat with the crystal, holding it out. It's not embedded in the flesh, at least. We debate the likelihood of the nightmare god being able to shapeshift.

Kaa finds a second "trash chute."

We head into the temple proper after Odh opens the magically paper-light heavy door. We go in, the door closes, everything goes dark. Except, our eyes are closed. We open them, and are in a forest.

There's a cabin in the woods, and it smells like good food. Kaa is immediately paranoid. We debate who is going to knock.

We get creepily invited in. After a lot of grimacing, Odh steps in. We find a figure: pitch black squirrel, about the size of Odh. Eyes are completely black. And it's glitchy!

Creepy squirrel is trying to be hospitable. Kaa tries introductions. Nightmare squirrel doesn't remember his name. His name is now Shadow.

Odh and Saabi eat and drink and get some healing. Kaa refuses on behalf of her and Baby because this squirrel is fucking creepy.

We get asked why we're here. Odh tanks this one. Shadow says he's not sure he's a god, and asks if we're here for "these" and drops down three dice. They're clearly an artifact. Odh says we might be here for these, and Shadow gets a lil mad.

Kaa reminds Shadow we did come to help, Shadow says he doesn't need any.

Due southwest there's a squirrel who Shadow calls "nuts."
