Session II: Rebellion Report

General Summary

While returning to the rebel camp, Zan received a message from Sin'zi that in 2 hours an opportunity will come to free the slaves of the templar encampment. Assuming this was a good chance the team went to create chaos in the camp to free the slaves.
Strongarm deceived one tenth of the army to go north-west, Zan casted circle of dead on 20 of the camps leader figures and Effi distracted the templars in the form of a dragon. While they did create chaos the templars seemed more than prepared for an attack with the 20 or so casters in the temple immediately shooting the dragon out of the sky. But no one was prepared for what was to come.
The division send north-west let out blood curdling screams ad they were the first to be attacked by the horde of demons that was invading.Due to the dragon the casters used up all their magic misslies and needed to resupply on spell scrolls. The team had misunderstood Son'zi's message as she meant the camp would be attacked not thet we had to attack. In the chaos the demons overran most of the camp. Their goal: the temple.
Inside the temple devas were summopned to combat the demons and the most powerful and high ranking members of the templar present teleported out using a teleportation circle leaving the rest of the men to fight for their own. The team snuck inside the temple as well. Zan secured an escape route, Effi freed the slaves and Strongarm looted the armory.
After the escape, 5 of the freed slaves (all malenti) seperated from the group as they did not want to follow the outcast Zan, but were not stupid enough to try to kill him. The escape route also led to Kaajila's resting spot from where she had watched the chaos unfold in silence. Seeing 2 of her old tribesmen amongst the group and knowing the group had similar goals (at least for now) she made herself known to provide assisstance.
