The start of another adventure...

Last month I wrote about preparing to play D&D with my wife for the first time. Around that time we learned the great news that she is pregnant with our first child. We did it!

Anyways, for the past 6 weeks or so, she's been very tired in the evenings and usually goes to bed shortly after supper. Therefore, the D&D game has been delayed...until tonight. I almost fell off my throne when she asked to play D&D. I swear to God, it was her idea.

We played the short pre-programmed intro to the Palace of the Silver Princess adventure. Veva, Maira, Eldon, and Aarl passed through the gatehouse into the palace dungeon. She learned about secret doors, traps, listening at doors, turning undead, surprise, etc. She did well to avoid combat too. Maira fed the crazed monkey to pacify it and Aarl successfully turned the chain-rattlin' ghost. She's eager for the next session in hopes of finding the treasures of bath oils and luxurious towels.

Entering the palace dungeon (Nice crooked helmet, Eldon)

They surprise the crazed monkey (I don't have any Giant Rat legos, so I made it a monkey instead)

Aarl turns the ghost (It passed through the rear wall and may show up later in the dungeon)
