Session VI Report

Missions/Quests Completed

☑ Main Quest: Preparations

  • Congratulations. The party has known one another for over a week now!
  • Had breakfast together
    • Cassian wrote a to-do list and shared it with everybody
    • Inigo shaved his face and refused to acknowledge any mention of a beard.
    • Sorin shared his worries regarding Alín - there’s something magical about them and Sorin thinks they might not be trustworthy.
  • Decided to go visit Serafina.
    • Inigo went with the party, wearing a cloak to disguise himself.
    • Meraad stayed behind so it wouldn’t be too suspicious.
  • Serafina updated everybody:
    • The Princes were displeased with the death of the Costa family.
    • They accepted the Black Shadow explanation.
    • They want to speak with Inigo ASAP. He needs to take over his father’s duties.
  • Serafina was happy that the party retrieved the seal.
    • She will set up a meeting with Lord Galli for Cassian to apologize and return it
    • Her advice is to ‘kiss his ass’ when it happens.
  • Asked Serafina about Faro.
    • She is unable to get the party access to it.
    • It’s exclusive and memberships are passed down through families.
    • Inigo’s brother used to have a friend who was a member (because his brother was friends with nerds was Inigo’s reasoning)
    • She suggested blackmailing Corelli, who is probably a member.
  • Sorin expressed his distrust of Alín again.
    • Serafina suggested using them as a resource anyway. You’re all on the same side.
  • Serafina arranged for horses for everybody to get to Malek’s Estate.
  • Informed Alín of the plan, and they agreed to meet the party at the Bungalow the next night.
  • Had a free day to make any preparations the party might need.
    • Jarryn went to visit Osrick
    • Zayd went off on his own to do an errand

☑ Main Quest: Malek Atan

  • Alín met the party at the Bungalow later that night
  • Set out and found horses in The Wing. Unfortunately there were only 5.
    • Inigo and Zayd shared
    • Cassian and Sorin shared
  • During the ride out, Zayd whispered dirty thing to Inigo. He passed a seduction test and Inigo got flustered (and hard).
    • Meraad heard everything. Thanks, she hates it.
  • Stopped a little ways from the Estate and left Inigo and Meraad to watch the horses.
  • Scoped out the Estate and found a rotation of guards outside.
    • Knocked one guard out and stole his whistle.
  • The party snuck by the servant’s quarters
  • Decided to enter the house through the garden, but the door was locked and unpickable
  • The party were discovered by a servant - an elven girl who called herself Chiara
    • She informed the party that they needed a key to get inside
    • Only two of the guards had keys
  • Planned on sneaking by the stables.
    • Sent Chiara inside as a distraction
    • Soon heard yelling and an argument
  • There were two guards unexpectedly in the stables. Fought them and knocked them out. Tied them up.
  • Found a hidden trapdoor in one of the stables.
    • Zayd found it
    • Jarryn busted it open with his axe
  • Followed a tunnel down to a secret workshop.
    • There was a holding cell in one corner
    • A large magic rune painted on the floor
    • A lot of books and a worktable
  • Zayd ambushed a young man named Jacob working at the table
    • He refused to answer questions at first
    • Then claimed he didn’t know what the circle was for
    • The party left him locked in the holding cell
  • Zayd peeked through a trapdoor, which opened into Malek’s office
    • Malek was inside and saw him right away
    • It was pretty awkward for everybody
  • The party all emerged and threatened Malek. Demanded to know why he’d murdered the Costas
    • He denied it at first
    • Then admitted to it, though his reasoning was…that there was no meaning behind it.
    • “They needed something to do.”
  • He eventually attacked. He summoned a Shade to help him fight.
    • Jarryn beat the shit out of a lot of things, including a Shade
    • Sorin sensed the strange magic coming from Alín again
    • Alín was able to injure the Shade on their own
  • Part way through the fight, Malek's sister Talia burst into the room
    • She demanded to know why you were attacking her brother.
    • She was in disbelief that he was evil.
  • Defeated Malek and left him injured.
  • Zayd stepped on him to try to get him to talk.
    • He was defiant
    • Insisted that he did what he had to do.
    • Mentioned ‘keys’, and was surprised that that wasn’t the reason you were there.
  • Alín shoved a book page in his face and demanded to have the full thing
    • Malek was surprised. “So, you have it then.”
  • Before the party could get any answers, a knife lodged itself in Malek's throat
    • Chiara, who the party had forgotten, was perched at the window
    • She waved and hopped out the window, disappearing into the night
  • Searched Malek’s desk and found two notes
    • Found him wearing the same silver ring as Tessa
  • Alín was desperately trying to find the book
    • Summoned a small wisp that helped them search
    • Found the book and shoved it in their bag
  • Talia was no help
    • She didn’t know anything about whatever evil life her brother was leading
    • She didn’t know why Chiara would kill him (she was a servant for about a month)
  • Decided to get the fuck out
    • Talia was left a way to contact you
  • Booked it back to the horses
