Isabella de la Lune asked for some Associates to collect some mushrooms.
Log
This is going to be a new experience for me. Usually, I let one of the others do the Expedition Log but I figured I'd take care of it this time. So we were asked by Isabella de la Lune to collect some mushrooms, most likely for their use in the Apothecary. This is apparently an Expedition that is posted every few months for newer members of the Associates, but I figured that I'd sign up and make sure nothing happened to the others. Though based on the events that took place I don't think I needed to worry so much. The others on this Expedition are all very capable people.
Anyways, my group and I were sent to the Mycelial Mines to collect some glowing mushrooms of various colors. When we first arrived we were met with a friendly Fungus Leshy who was kind enough to tell us where we could find what we were looking for. We were able to find most of the mushrooms with no bother, but unfortunately encountered a fungus slime of some sort. We managed to dispatch of the creature but not before it could inflict Drake with Slime Rot. Hopefully either he can get someone to heal him of this Rot, or his body manages to fight it off.
With all but one color of mushroom collected, we ventured to a part of the mines that our Leshy friend had warned us of. There were flesh-eating mushroom creatures further down the tunnels. We later learned that these were creatures called Myceloids. Thankfully we managed to get the last of the mushrooms that we needed without alerting any of them. I'm not confident that we would have survived an encounter with so many of them.
Oh! I also managed to grab an extra purple mushroom! I wanted to give it to Illiam because the mushroom glowed pretty close to the shade of pink that their eyes are, but it stopped glowing once I harvested it. Hopefully, they'll still like it.
