Session 28: Revenge of the Jarl Report

General Summary

The session began with the party splitting into two groups: the boys and the girls, each following different leads in their investigation into the underworld activities of Alderland. The boys aimed to uncover evidence by exploring an underground fighting pit. Their search led them to a gambling den, where they engaged in some betting but failed to locate the fight club they sought. Determined to find more information, they visited a brothel and uncovered a crucial connection to the Mystic Glen Amphitheatre, Severus Alder, and the Lux Cult.   Meanwhile, the girls took a more social approach, arranging a 3-on-1 date with Dr. Alaric Vanholt. They met him at the Golden Goblet and received a tour of his college. Lavinia particularly flirted with Vanholt and successfully secured tickets to a performance at the Mystic Glen, suspecting it to be tied to their investigation.   During the day, the party relaxed and recuperated at the Eldaran Bathhouse, gathering their thoughts and planning their next moves. Some members updated Seamus and Floki on the progress of their investigation.   As evening approached, the group prepared for the performance at the Mystic Glen Amphitheatre. Lyria and Vass disguised themselves as an actress and stagehand, respectively. In the changing rooms, Lyria encountered a mysterious woman who attempted to read her mind, while Vass was recruited to assist the lighting team, giving him a strategic vantage point to observe the night's events.   Lavinia and Marcus got into the theater as guests of Alaric Vanholt.   Ash spotted Shinji outside the theater and attempted to follow him. Despite losing track of Shinji, Ash continued his investigation by searching for a Zamorran boat at the docks, hoping to uncover more about their elusive adversary.   This session provided significant developments in the party's investigation, deepening their understanding of the connections between the city's underworld, the Lux Cult, and the Mystic Glen Amphitheatre. The information gathered has set the stage for the upcoming performance and the next steps in their quest.
