Session 46 - When in Doubt, Ask for a Tour
The group visits Elmander’s
- Mina hires him to research her crystal star chart
- Elmander hires Rusco to help him create more star charts
- Rusco wants to start immediately but we have to do some investigating on the underside of Bral first
We explore the tunnels ahead of the Koalitio inspection. We convinced a member of the Ministry to take us for a tour of the farmland on the underside of the Rock. He eventually left us to explore on our own, at which point we snuck to the entry to the tunnels. We discovered that this was actually an entrance to Proconsul’s mage tower. We successfully avoided the first trap, but were greeted by a sentient projection (The Spirit of Knowledge, or “Spiri”) who told us about where we were and explained that there were further traps within if we wanted to proceed. The traps could be avoided if we can find three orbs that deactivate the system - but unfortunately, all of the orbs are within the tower. Upon opening the first door, all of the cutlery on the table sprung to life and began to attack us.
Session 47 - The One Where Gadric’s House Attacks Us
We swiftly manage the attacks from the flying cutlery, and discover that there are crystals all over the house that are part of the defense system (white, blue, red, green). They can be destroyed or have their magic dispelled temporarily to stop their effects, but they regenerate quickly.
We found a portal that leads to another room with a balcony overlooking a garden with a large tree in it. At the far end of the room there is a statue that appears to be protecting the room. There are also a couple of orbs by it.
We’re getting clobbered, and Gadric is probably on his way, and we are not clear on what to actually do…
Session 48
We manage to find the last orb and free Spiri.
- Spiri turns out to be a blue horned fiend
- We are told to leave immediately and to leave the door open
- We don’t want to mess with this fiend so we leave quickly
- We may have just unleashed a powerful fiend on Bral
- We are told to leave immediately and to leave the door open
LONG REST
