Blood of Dragons

Good god, it feels like Deja vu

They set off from solaris the next dawn, with the suns on their backs and a soft, cinnamon scented wind blowing to the south.. in the direction of the flaming sky.
Rath and the group said their final goodbyes, and set off to gather intelligence.
They had traveled about 3 hours before their first encounter with the burning man. The group was just reaching the crest of a hill, and upon the top stood three, large, brutish bugbears. "Halt!" The largest of the creatures called, in a full suit of full plate "You are entering the lands of the Burning Man, if you wish to be converted, you may come through without harm, otherwise, you will be detained, and converted anyway" He gives them a tusk and toothy grin. Rathashans response was to point a lovely little stick he found at them and say it's lovely little trigger word... "Boomstick" and a flaming ball  explodes as it hits the stunned bugger (hahah, get it? Bugbear/bugger?.. No?... :( )  the fireball burning the bugbear and his companions, blasting the two beside him to cinders. The surviving member lets out a unworldly call, and at least two dozen more bugbears charge at them, wielding weapons and wearing armour far too sophisticated and well made to be made by them, who usually use crude hammers and axes. Anna leaped into action, cleaving into them with her glaive, and Wallace seems to disappear from sight. Grommit somehow made it start raining stones, and Rath was throwing fire around like it was silly string. It was a merry burning of foes. While one may have dodged the glaive, another got stabbed in the knee, hit by stones or burnt to a crisp.
