Our party of intrepid adventurers, Brighthorn, Jalai, Oosa, Nobin, and Glawar, set out into the Ruins of the Heart Temple, to seek the riches that they have heard lie within its walls. The party finds a ceiling entrance to a chamber in the temple, and enters via ropes. The first room is oddly shaped, with 5 exits. The party elects to check out the door to the upper right. As they listen at the door, they hear something within. Nobin's ears detect the chatter of Kobalds! Arming and arraying themselves, they burst through the door to find 24 Kobalds in a 20'x30' room with 4 exits, 2 on the east wall, and 2 on the south wall.

Brighthorn, Jalai and Glawar are the first through the doors, setting up a bulwark so that Nobin and Oosa are somewhat protected. Nobin hurls an Alchemists Fire over the vanguard, falling short of his intended victim, but striking another Kobald and his surround clan mates.

While the fire bombing of the Kobalds is going on, our chain mailed front line are swinging away at the Kobalds that have lined up against them, and the dice of fate are doing them no favours. Brighthorn is a bit over his head at the moment, completely missing on his opponents several times in a row, rolling 1's. Jalai and Glawar do no better, but at least they are not embarrassing themselves in the process. Brighthorn takes a hit, but his chain mail and toughness turn away all but 1 of the damage, scratching him. Jalai's opponent scores a critical hit on him, doing 7 damage. Glawar also takes a hit, suffering 1 damage. Nobin fire bombs the Kobalds in the back yet again, sowing more confusion and damage. Oosa waits at the back of the line, protected for now.

Nobin yells at Glawar to switch places with him so that his nimble form and blades can start cutting Kobalds to shreds. Nobin back rolls over Gawar and quite artfully deals 6 damage to the Kobald that was facing off against Glawar. The Cleric is pleased to be in the support position, as he can aid his allies with heal spells from this spot.

After a long, bitter battle in which Jalai came quite close to unconsciousness a few times, Nobin actually has to be rescued because of his over confidence in his abilities, and Brighthorn getting exceedingly frustrated with his inability to actually do much hitting (normal attacks or when he is fortunate enough to get a cleave) the party empties out the room of Kobalds.  The party then searches the room and bodies of the Kobalds, and finds a Jargoon and a green moonstone, as well as 4 alchemists fire to add to their collection, and a set each of full plate and Half Plate. Brighthorn and Jalai were happy to have found upgrades to their chain mail so soon. With that, the party high tails it back to town, to sell their wares, and to find that Brighthorn and Jalai were welcomed by their trainers to learn some new skills.
