A Good Day

Late in the evening, the next day, Ash sits with his friend and mentor, Wixil, and tells him about the good day he just had.

Imagine in one day rescuing a Dwarven Princess from a party of evil Drow and their undead servants. Then discovering that the Drow leader had in her possession a magical portal key that would give Ash and his friends a large reward. Ash had some concerns about turning over the key to collect the reward without first trying to use it himself. But when Lareek mentioned Ash's reward could be almost anything he desired Ash decided it was OK to turn the key over.

Lareek helped the party identify several magic items that they had found. Ash was pleased to discover that the magical crossbow he had found, and has been carrying for some time, did in fact do extra fire damage when the command word "volcano" was spoken. Is that cool or what.

Ash will spend some time with Wixil improving his abilities as a wizard. He will ask Lareek if it is possible for him to help Ash find the most powerful magic item of the "fire" type available for about 25,000gp. Ash hopes this will be a Wand of Fireballs (10th level).
