Adventures in a Doomed World: Session 22

I'm playing a mashup of  Scarlet Heroes  and  Basic Fantasy RPG  with a few supplements to turn it into a solo fantasy hexcrawl in the world of Eilobar, a doomed land entering its end times. I'm using the  Level 0 Character Tumbler , Hexcrawl Adventures and some homebrew rules. The characters started as level 0 peasants and have since levelled up to become heroes. Introduction I'm continuing with my Scarlet Heroes campaign after a long break. As a recap: This is the Kingdom of Lond in the world of Eilobar, a medieval world entering its end times. The age of heroes is long over and passed into legend. There are no adventurers. Our party was formed from peasants as the result of a funnel adventure. They've since levelled up into heroes. Monsters are awakening in the deep places of the earth and beginning to terrorise common folk again. Stilda is a female human level 3 fighter with a longsword and splintmail. Previously a barber from the isolated village ...
