"Do they have another exit up there?" Cal asks. "If there's one thing we learned fighting the last spiders it's that when you try and burn them out, it just makes them run away. Any chance we could try and circle around to find out if there's a more convenient entrance than this chimney?"

Ettercaps and Caveweavers
The well-read spymaster's ears perk up when Garuk mentions ettercaps. "There has to be Cal. Anything I've ever read on them, they would scout another den rather than traverse that air shaft as their only means of ingress and egress."
Number Two: "You are number six."
Number Six: "I am not a number, I am a free man!"
Number Two: "Muh ha ha ha ha!"

"Then let's scout around and see if we can find their other entrance," Cal says with a nod. "Then we can clear out one more menace to the settlers in this area."

Ettercaps and Caveweavers
That finishes things up in the caves. You make sure you've collected as much as you can, and cleared out as much as you can. Gathering yourselves, Garuk puts his armor back on, and checking wounds, you head out of the Owlbear cave and into the hills. It takes about half an hour, but you spot it, another entrance on the back side of the hills, its hard to see with a sheeting of webbing over the entrance partially blocked by trees and brush. You figure it right, that has to be the cave entrance with the ettercaps inside. If you didn't know it should be there, you'd likely have missed the entrance.

"No sense dilly-dallying then," Garuk says. He casts another few spells as needed and heads in.

"Agreed," Cal says, and makes his own preparations before following the others in.

Aetoron draws his blade and mace while Garuk casts a spell of invisibility upon him. Whispering to the others as he starts to move toward the cave entrance, "Steel your nerves and let us end this quickly."

Round 1: Ettercaps and Caveweavers
The group finds a nice quite place and starts to cast various protections and other spells on themselves for the anticipated attack. It has to be done just right with all the shorter term spells and the invisibility.
You creep up to the curtain of webbing and foliage, and spring your ambush on the poor unsuspecting Ettercaps.
