#12 The Giant's Bout / Skolitas Arena

After leaving Rohas, the party went to the caves to the west of the town after seeing strange looking kids playing on the mountains. When entering, they encountered Shenron, and ancient green dragon. He told the party that everyone was a descendant of his great grandparents who were a dragon and dwarf. As the dragon was speaking, the mountain shook and giant boulders fell from the ceiling. He protected the party with his enormous wing and told them about the giants fighting on the peak.

The party climbed the mountain and seen 3 stone giant and 3 cloud giants attacking each other for the control of the mountain. After watching the battle conclude, the cloud giant was the only one standing. He took a meditative stance and began meditating. The party questioned the giant about what was going on. The giant told them that the stone giants were tired of having control of the lower mountains and wanted it all, and they have never been aggressive towards the cloud giants before. After exchanging stories about the lich and the history of the two breed of giants, the party left him to his meditating and headed toward Skolitas, north of Wrine. 

Skolitas is home to a monastery of monks and a weekly arena. The party took party of King Fu's arena along with 6 other teams, including novices from the wizard tower. 

The party first fought a Famorian (I really wanted them to fight this since the underdark session)

Then they fought a purple worm which almost party wiped. The King then asked the three remaining parties, PC, monks, wizards if they would like to continue or split the prize. The monks left the option up to the PCs, as they were there for money to pay for the monastery and the wizards were just there for practice. The PCs said they were done and took the prize money.
