After arriving in Nicodranas, you watched the strange orbs be taken in a cart with matching generic symbol of a circle in front of a flame, though this had lettering underneath, reading: Errenis Antiquities and invoking the name of Yussa Errenis, a merchant wizard that owns and controls the Open Quay section of the city. Travelling into the city toward Mirkwood Academy, you found Nicodranas to be bustling with people, parties, and intrigue. A brief encounter with a runaway carriage found two daggers and some treasure, abandoned by an unknown Cerberus Assemblyman who you then found dead in the street; perhaps killed by the same agent that sent the carriage fleeing.
As you crossed into the northern slum section of the city, at the edge of the Open Quay, Amira was recognized by a stranger in the streets. Babbling, the man spoke of needing to apologize and that Amira was chosen. He was tricked, and took it where the three spires meet. This was familiar to Applethorn, remembering a ruin he encountered in the jungle that seemed to call to him. Anger flared in Amira, uncontrolled and unexpected, before a flash of energy left the man dead on the ground at her feet. Amira left quickly, as Scrum investigated the body and found a flat, rhombus shaped piece of obsidian glass the size of her palm.
Arriving at the academy, Della, Applethorn, and Stassie looked up Professor Benedict to find that he was still on his sabbatical, though several unknown people have visited his office through the tower window. Dean Verrity, of Lorehold College, left a note for them to come see her and revealed that she approved Benedict’s sabbatical despite his research into Della’s incident becoming more like an obsession as he looked more and more into different planes of existence and pocket dimensions undiscovered as of yet. Last she heard, he was in Trostenwald, waiting on a Cobalt Soul member borrowed from an expedition to Bazzoxan to join him in his investigations. She expects they can find him there, both to get more answers, and to convince him to return to Mirkwood.
PLAYER NOTES:
Stop a cart and find a chest. It has the symbol of the Cerberus assembly. Also find a dead Cerberus assembly member who we may use as the alleged mole.
Arrive at the Mirkwood Acadamy. It seems like a hogwarts. Go to talk professor benedict but there is a note for Cassie to talk to the Dean.
