Fun Facts:
- Vanniya: longes for the Fey Wild and might want to stay
- Blue Eyes: might want to get to know Vanniya better to be able to use his coupling charmes to find her a suitable mate
- Cereen: doesn’t fear death, but she does fear a meaningless death. She wants to die protecting people, killing fiends, being a hero.
- Falcyon: is getting to know Falkor to the bone and is now considering ‘divorce’…
- Nathaniel: now alternates his bedtime sending to mother and Amelie.
The party splits up when Vanniya and Falkyon head down to the Acadamy only to find the library is now guarded with entrance gates. A picture of Vanniya and a grumpy attendant refuse her entry in the library. Only by stroke of luck she sees her old mentor Master Leachu. They struck a bond where Vanniya and Falcyon help him to find out why and where the Fey Wild and the Prime are getting closer together. One of these places is in the Guthmere forest near Len’Levinehl and one is somewhere in the Essembra region. They will both be rewarded upon completion: Falkyon will be investigated by Master Algan, a muscular intelligent Centaur and druid in this library with the goal of finding out why and how he and Falkor melted into Falkyon on that ship on that night. Both will (re)gain full access to the library of Len’Levinehl upon completion of this quest. This mutual promise is magically sealed.
Later that day the party spends one day to fly over to the battlefield of Titans to find the missing page of the book of Helm. On said battlefield, now all lushy green with just a hint of scattered titan-bones the party find a titan helm in which houses a awkward monstrosity wailing in anger and exhausting almost all to a slow trot. Our beloved bard is polymorphed into a T-rex with blue eyes and an odd winking compulsion like every 6 seconds. The beast starts biting chunks of limb from the monster and the rest of the party fireball, scorch and slash it but to no avail. Only after Vanniya manges to slice the umbilical cord with her fathers sword the party is able to deal real damage and blast the atrocity to smithereens. After the battle time is spend resting, investigating the helm, rejoining with lost angels and digging a hole. Vanniya and Nathaniel were able to loot the poor dead adventurers who didn’t have a reliquary vorpal sword in their possession for a hefty sum of gold. And Vanniya stumbles upon an dirt covered latch and finds the way in the hidden grotto under the helm. In which Nathaniel finds the missing paper of the Book of Helm. Sadly the page was ‘guarded’ by undead and they close in on the party, but Nathaniel saves the day by quickly portalling them out and into the afternoon gathering in the temple of Helm in Essembra. Quick thinking and a lot of wits turn the bloody party into the center of attention when Nathaniel announces the miraculous return of the Book of Helm and with it the spirit of Vyncent Pharrey. All attending the gathering rejoice and the return of the relic is celebrated.
On the night after the ceremony at the temple of Helm in Essembra Falkyon goes to the Grove of Eldath in Essembra. He finds priestess Maera there and priest Imroth. The later one being a fervent shapechanger druid willing to help Falkyon with his predicament. He tells him that he needs to look for his answer in the fey wild. He knows of an artifact which was once kept in an ancient fortress near Glen, but after a war centuries ago the fortress was destroyed and the artifact gone, presumably it was relocated to the fey wild in that era. But this is mostly extrapolating the knowledge from tomes from that time. He doesn’t know how Cairon and Falkor came to be Falkyon, but he knows of the artifact that could separate them.
Blue Eyes is on a Sune guided tavern mission. He drinks and sings and tries talks to the people of Essembra spreading the word. The meets Elyss, a commoner who is enthralled by his story telling about the wondrous God Sune. He learns that there is no shrine or temple to Sune here and on a whim he gives the woman 200g to start one.
