As the temperatures began to dip lower, the party left Perrin in search of the circus where they believed Mario the unicorn to be held. The first day of their trip was uneventful, and they spent a restful night at the Inn of Bonne Jouissance, enjoying the roast pork for which that locale is justly famous. On the next day, the forest began to thicken around them. As they approached a bridge crossing a small brook, eight wolves emerged from the trees, flanking them as they attacked. The group was able to kill the beasts, but not without serious injury to Remi and Bart. Gnick was able to treat their wounds somewhat, but Remi in particular was still in bad shape as they approached Leene.
Leene is a lovely forest town, full of half-timbered houses and workshops where artisans fashion wooden goods from the timber in the surrounding area. The party went to a local inn, the Sign of the Barrel, where they retired for the night. In the middle of the night, however, the lighter sleepers of the group were awakened by the sound of something oozing through the windows of their rooms. Three blood slimes had infiltrated the hotel! The party made a brave stand, but especially with Remi barely standing, they could only manage a fighting retreat. Fortunately, the city guard showed up, and they were able to eliminate the threat.
