OMG the dramaz

It seems WoW is not the only place that I can encounter the drama llamaz.

An odd thing happened at our last DnD session last friday. The party was composed of the following:

Half-Elf Paladin
Elven Avenger (me)
Human Monk
Human Warlock
Shifter Cleric

I'll won't go too much into detail of the backstory going on here, but essentially myself and the cleric were worshippers of the goddess Silvanis and were tasked by some Dryads of Silvanus to find out why crazy shit in the forest was happening.

So as we are wandering around the forest we find an Ent with another Dryad perched on it. They are ignoring us, so the monk thought a good idea of getting their attention was to punch it for 12 damage. Unfortunately, the ent was not amused about being injured and ended up going beserk with the Dryad.

At this point we were all confused about what to do. We all knew we didn't want to actually kill the Ent, but all attempts to reason with it after it got sucker punched failed. At that point the Cleric who was an extremely devout worshipper of Silvanus starts attacking the monk, since he really didn't want to kill the ent and the rest of the party had started attacking the Ent.

To cut the story short, Cleric eventually drops Monk, though we are all able to resolve the situation with the Ent peacefully at the very end (after literally knocking some sense into it).

Unfortunately, the monk after he was revived was not happy, and the result was both character ended up deciding they could no longer stay within the party, leaving myself, the warlock, and the paladin to continue forward.

There was actually not very much real life bad blood going on, just the 2 players essentially role-playing their characters to what they thought they would actually do (and they actually had a bit of fun doing so from my observation), but still it was really an odd thing to see happen, and certainly not something I have ever seen happen before. The DM however was probably not very pleased, since the Cleric actually had some importance to his campaign as a story element, so now that's been scratched.
