Session 68: Party Time Shenanigans Report

General Summary

It takes 3 days for the group to get back to Eschbach. The roads however are slowly improving.   Father Tossil is busy at the groove carrying out some work. The group approaches Father Tossil explaining they want to check the mystery box. In the next day or 2 Eater Equinox is coming up and father Tossil is preparing for that. Amon is told to go into the vault to get the mystery box. Together with a monk Amon goes into the vault     Amon brings up the box to the surface.       Amon decides to take a peek into the box with Anselma. Amon suggests that Grimmaz opens the box, but Grimmaz is not available (on the shitter or something). Anselma opens the box cautiously.   There seems to be papyrus around a small rectangular box with some wax on top to seal it.     Anselma finds some material inside the box surrounded in black sand. Anselma gets startled from the black sand and she puts down the box. Anselma pokes the material with her daggers sheen.     Grimmaz now knows that de Reis is in cohorts with nefarious cults. The black stuff isn't good and is linked to the Cenobytes. Looking for a way to destroy it, Amon suggests using strong alcohol to burn it.       A dragon arises from the flames and disappears. Amon pours a bit more alcohol on top of the fire to make sure it burns really good.     Father Tossil explains that the contents of the box wasn't good. Father Tossil Mentions that they are getting something out of the vault. A small object covered in a cloth.   A small box with intricate details gets shown.     Grimmaz explains about the black sand substance and the Leviathans flesh that he found earlier. Meanwhile the group hears about the Spring Equinox that is being held in a few days. Grimmaz suggests that they stay in Eschbach for this festival.     Amon will set up some protective barriers against the escaped dragon. Grimmaz takes Eleia to see Emma Duckthorne. Father Tossil asks if Anselma wants to help out Amon to get the church ready.     Reolus, Grimmaz, and Eleia move on to the Groove to see Emma Duckthorne. Emma asks to guard some goats and get some food for the people.     Grimmaz sends some burgeaters to do just that and decides to go get a bite. A young messenger arrives with a package for Eleia Gold. Grimmaz looks at Eleia and asks, Miss Gold?     Eleia tries to confront the messenger that it isn't smart to give away miss Gold information. Eleia opens the package to know what she needs to do.     There's a vial in the package with a note behind it. The note contains instructions for Miss Gold to kill the lord with the odorless poison.   Eleia throws the note and poison away into the fire.     Eleia excuses herself with an excuses and chases after the messenger. Eleia confronts the messenger about his instructions. She wants to send a message back, payment up front and if no payment then through your incompetent ass.     Eleia returns and gets confronted about using the restroom/water closet.     Reolus tries to feed Eleia drunk while Grimmaz is playing his flute.     Grimmaz hears high pitched signing from the back of the groove, when investigating Grimmaz finds some mushrooms singing along with the song.     Emma Duckthorne comes around and mentions that it appears to be a fey type of mushroom. Grimmaz changes his tune to something different and the mushrooms follow along.     Eleia confirms in Anselma about her history from an orphanage and how her kind is prosecuted, and shows her horns to Anselma. Anselma puts her trust in Eleia about her backstory, and Eleia tries to believe in Anselma.     Anselma gets offered a drink from a man who didn't want to enter the groove. A hooded man is standing there with slightly glowing reddish eyes below his hood. It's a cherry Kirch drink which Reolus gets offered by Anselma as Anselma doesn't dare to drink it.     Grimmaz gets asked to help with the goat burning ritual. The goat burning ritual is a pagan ritual for the spring equinox.     After some time Amon decides to go do his usual rounds, and Grimmaz meets up with Eleia, Eleia asks about Alfie and why Alfie stays around Grimmaz. Basically trying to stir up some trouble between Alfie and Grimmaz.       After going to bed we woke up and Eleia went straight to the messenger place to look for a response. And grimmaz went to her house to check on her and she was gone (at the messenger office albeit) and he told the elders about knowing the spy because she was now missing.
