Spiders

(Throst) after the night passed I woke up early around dawn and once again gathered food for breakfast. Normally I would use the standard rations that I carry but they have no taste and are unfit for alica I much prefer to make sure that she has everything she needs plus that hotel put a huge dent in my wallet. But a few high tier quests will fix that anyway I find something remarkably interesting hidden behind a tree a I find an old moss covered object it’s difficult to explain it but i will do my best. The object is a rectangle shape and has black glass laced onto of it. There are several holes in the sides and a small curved rectangle hole. I clean off the object and I see the words samsing? Written on it I’m a bit curious what it is so I pocket it. I continue to scavenge for food I do eventually come across a boar so I decide to cook it up for breakfast. After breakfast we once again head out to the castle. On the way there, there was a lot of extremely sticky webs everywhere so it toke quite some time to get pass the wend but we finally reach the castle gates. 

(Alica) wondering through the spooky woods even during the day was quite scary and all the sticky webs were quite disgusting but we have to get to the castle and kill the spider queen. When we do finally reach the gate they were locked shut and are made of two feet of iron. I thought there was now way of getting pass the gates but to my surprise Throst just grew giant fists of ice and pummeled the door to pieces “knock knock daddy’s home” he jokes. On the other side of the gates there was wilted grass and trees covered in thick webs and even a few small spiders were lurking about. But walk in like we own the place the ice fist that Throst had just bashed down the front door revealing several of dog sized spiders chewing on a human corpse.

The few bones left of the poor guy were swallowed by the giant spiders. After picking there fangs they  set there eyes into us with blood thirsty grins they approached us quickly and with one quick motion they lunge onto us trying to sink their fangs into us. One of the tries to wrap is legs around me but I instinctively grab onto it under belly and legs. The spider squirms around in my grip I struggle to hold it. One of the others spiders bites into my boots but it’s fangs stop short due to the thick leather boots I’m wearing. It realises it mistake and tries to tears it’s fangs from my boots I kick my leg around trying to shake it free. But it’s stuck, no matter how much I kick it won’t come off. I glance over to Throst and he’s dealing with four huge spiders one is pinned down by his boot. One has a blade through it skull and the other two are being strangled by throst. He was doing bettering than I was, I want to show him that I’m useful so I take a risk and let go of it’s legs and reach for my knife. But the spider latched onto my boot escapes and sees my hand reaching down. It lunge and bites onto my hand a searing pain spreads across my arm. The rubber glove I wear is not thick enough to withstand spider bites the size of knifes. I quickly grab my knife and s***h the spider that bit me but the joints in my hand lock up I stab the other spider and rip my blade from its corpse. then my joints in the rest of my arm lock up, the pain intensifies in my right arm and spreads to the rest of my body I try to play it off as if nothing has happened I want to be useful so if I can’t handle small spiders then I am useless to Throst. I get up and pretend that nothing is wrong so far Throst hasn’t noticed that anything is wrong. We continue into the castle, weapons ready We prepare for a fight we come across a hoard of spiders but not as big as before.

So we managed to clear them out quickly but I wasn’t much help I struggle to kill them I wriggle the dagger from my hand and I use the other hand to wield it. although my left hand is not my dominate hand so it was quite difficult to defend myself a few spiders managed to crawl up me and I shaked them off with difficultly a few latched on, sinking there fangs into my right arm. with my arm the way it is I felt all the pain but I couldn’t shake em off or even move it. I had to swing my dagger at my arm occasionally cutting my self with it the pain intensifies with every cut blood drips down my arm. After all the spiders are dead I glance over to Throst he has cuts all over but he’s doing better than I am. Throst looks over I quickly move my head away and I pretend that I’m not hurt but he’s not convinced. “you really need a break those wounds obviously don’t look good” concerned Throst “I’m fine I can go on” I respond “no your hurt and your arm is bleeding in several places and those spiders are filled with poison.” He states “I’m fine they didn’t even cut me” I pout “oh really hold up the number three with your right arm.” He asks I hold the number three with my left hand. “No your right hand” he asks again. “Uh my arm is uh sleeping?” I hesitated “I don’t care we need to treat those wounds come here” he asks. I go to Throst and ask me to take the glove off and pull up the sleeve. My skin had a tint of green to it and the fang marks left behind was swollen. “Yeah your arm is sleeping with those wounds uh. Not paralysed at all Hmm.” Throst says sarcastically. He starts to treat my wounds I was startled when water seeped into my wounds and came out green and it was levitating in the air turns out Throst was using the water to connect to the poison and pull it out of the wound after awhile the green tint in my arm faded. After that Throst sealed the wounds with ice “there that should do for now it will eventually heal over, your arm should stop hurting but it will take awhile for your arm to start to feel again” he explains.
