Well, we added two new adventurers to our campaign this last session, and the inclusion led to some wild antics.
While our original party discovered that they're piece of parchment was enchanted to lead them in the direction of the thing they need to find, our new party members started off as part of a failed expedition exploring the ruins of Nangard.
This expedition was led by an eccentric druid who ended up touching something he wasn't supposed to, and the forest reacted poorly. Myriad beasts began to assault the encampment, which led the lost explorers to cut down trees and build a fortress. This made Nangard more angry. They've now been under siege for weeks and sent out party members two-by-two to try and find a way out, or at least find help.
The two latest party members, a human paladin and a half-elf wizard, drew the short straws, and had to venture out into the hostile forest. The two were squabbling from the beginning, and made slow progress, until they came to a river and decided to cross. The wizard opted to use a fire spell to fell a tree and make a bridge, as the paladin distrusted the fouled smell of the river. This landed them in a fight with a six legged reptilian beast. They managed to fend the creature off, and cross the river, where they met our party.
The two groups were suspicious of each other at first, and Song of Storms disliked the human from the start, but eventually they came to a hesitant accord, and sat to have dinner. While they prepared for the night watch, more of the six-limbed beasts grew restless in the tree-tops, and Song had to sing them a lullaby back to sleep.
As the paladin, Terrance, slept in his personal tent, the tabaxi felt especially catty, and snuck in and for some cattish reason, stole rings from his chainmail. Song then fell asleep on Terry's pillow, the woke him when she clawed him in the face. When Terry noticed the draft on his hind quarters, he demanded she put back what she stole. Song did, but left her own flair on her work, crafting in a flower motif with a gemstone in the center.
And that was where we left them then.
This brought the whole camp to alert status
