The rain picks up harder as the Chultan heat swells to unbearable levels. The group reaches a major fork in the river where they set camp. The foragers come up mostly empty-handed, though they spare what food they can to the ravenous Borislav.
During the first watch, a patch of madness mist rolls through camp. Borislav resists all attempts to awaken him. He finally rouses just a moment too late and is enveloped by the mist. As the mist passes, he becomes convinced that his travelling partners are brigands or robbers and attempts to flee, shouting for help. The group quickly subdues him, and attends to his burgeoning insanity. Unfortunately, his shouting attracts some undead yuan-ti. Goomy turns most of them, and the group makes quick work of the remaining foe. Borislav cowers in fear and then asks when the group plans to eat.
