Left Keep on the Borderland in morning. Traveled east along main road to Caves of Chaos. Entered the south-western cave at 25' elevation at 11 am.

    Turn 1:
        Traveled to junction, followed south-east tunnel, after leaving torch burning at intersection.
            Bree-Yark! First combat. First round, Joe takes 1 hp and Dayrell takes 4 hp from spears thrown by goblins in front of the party. The party quickly and efficiently dispatches 6 goblin guards. 
    Turn 2:
        Party is in room in aftermath of fight, searching bodies, setting up some defenses, preparing spears for later use, etc. 
    Turn 3:
        Party returns to intersection just inside cave entrance. 
    Turn 4:
        Party heads west to T, turns north and moves into room. They throw burning oil to the far side to light things up, then Sleep goblins. They fight ogre who enters through secret door and defeat him, using much more fire. Arthrella is knocked unconscious and on Death's door. More goblins arrive which are also put to Sleep. Finally, a group of big goblins arrive, some of whom are killed, one of whom runs away, and the final one negotiates information with the part for the agreement to leave he and his people alone. 
    Turn 5:
        Fires die down in room and it is searched. 
    Turn 6:
        Enter the ogre's cave to examine it's contents. Find bearskin and spend time before realizing it's just the skin and not a bear. Find arrows wrapped in papyrus and a glass vial hidden under a pile of bones. Find a huge bag full of seven smaller bags. Pick up the bag of coins the goblins tossed into the ogre. 
    Turn 7:
        Eat, gather strength. 
    Turn 8:
        Build stretcher to haul Arthrella back to town on. Distribute and load up loot. 
    Turn 9:
        Make way from tunnel entrance to the bottom of the ravine and head for the Keep on the Borderlands. 

Arrive back at the Keep on the Borderlands after a very tiring hike with all the stuff brought back from the goblin and ogre caves. Arrive at 5 pm.
