You are looking at a spider that is bigger than a horse. Even dead the horses would not want to be near it. It would be possible to rig it up and pull it behind two horses but it will slow you down a lot.

I look at the spider. "Well, that thing is bigger than the horses. That said, I saw horses pull things bigger than this. I saw two horses pull a 155mm howitzer with a broken axle and no wheels all over the mountains of Afghanistan. I think we can get it back but just cutting off the head is a good alternative. Thomas, Rachel, what do you think?"

The Storyteller says...

"Do we really need to bring the whole thing," I asked, not seeing reason why we couldn't just take the head.

I look at the Spider and over to the horses. " I vote that we take only the head. That should be proof enough of it's size. Dragging the whole thing in would delay us too long out here especially considering we have these children under our care. The sooner we make it back the better. "

I nod, "It seems like that is settled then. Rest up Den, I'll get it."

Pulling out a dagger, then after a moment's hesitation grabbing the crowbar as well, I'll work to start removing legs one by one. The head isn't something that can truly be taken on its own with a creature like this, best I can do is reduce it down to its torso.

Once the legs are gone, I'll cut through the pedical and yank out enough of the thorax's internals to make the weight manageable.

When done, shuddering a bit, I'll use an infusion to hit myself with Prestidigitation, cleaning off the muck. I rather like spiders for the most part, but this is a bit much…

Strapping the torso and maybe one of the legs to a few poles to be hauled along should not prove difficult at that point.

Jason finds that a dagger is a little short for cutting into the spider. He is soon using one of the children's short sword to make the cuts. Soon Jason finds himself covered in spider goo but he is able to get the job done. He is now in sore need of a bath. Making the travois is easily done and soon you are all on your way back towards the stronghold. After everything is said and done you arrive back shortly after the first sun has set.

As this is done I will keep my focus on the children, even drawing there attention away by offering to tell them a story a little away from the grisly work. Speaking to them in Elvish, I will offer a rendition of a few fairy tales I know.

I am quite glad to see the stronghold. Prestidigitation might have gotten the worst of the muck and the smell, but I could still feel it on my skin. I hope that was worth it.
