Session 23: Starting in the Sand Report

General Summary

  • The party was all split up in various ways, Raime was with the Cardinals and Marcos, Fafnir was with Miguel, Adamah and Squire were with the main force and Ariange has yet to be found. Eventually they all made their way to a slaving caravan that captured the Cardinals 
  • Raime escaped capture with their help, they gave him another chess piece this one can turn into a helmed horror that can cast lightning bolt, named Ally, it was supposedly going to be their guide through the Red Wastes as it knew a great deal about the area
  • Fafnir made a deal with some harpies to get their eggs back after the caravan stole them
  • Adamah and Squire led a contingent of Conquistadors to chase down the caravan
  • Everyone arrived and came up with a plan to try and talk things out first, they met Musab Sheikh, the leader of the caravan who explained a lot of them were actually refugees fleeing a massive horde of zombies coming up from the south. Times are tough and he's just trying to get past the Red Wastes to Najmectan, he knows he shouldnt have strayed so close but he needed to to stay ahead of the horde. He invites the party to stay with him since the briarland cultists heads and he both alluded to "she is coming", something coming out of the wastes towards them.
  • The caravan set up camp at the end of a long road of glass shards that stretched from the ocean into the red wastes, as night fell the stars winked out and a wave of black snake-like entities rolled out from the wastes towards the caravan, with the help of the Conquistadors they managed to hold a line of lit torches to keep the mass at bay, saving the Cardinals and the camp, they spotted a woman made of the snakes moving in the mass and after some uneasy talking to the snakes/Ally attacking her... they agreed to meet with her.
  • Adamah and Fafnir went out into the mass and agreed to give her back the skulls of her briarland cultists in exchange for safe passage to "the tomb of the titans" where she thinks they are going in the Red Wastes, she calls herself Tsara'Noga and called Fafnir and Adamah her nephew and niece... The deal states they will give up the unimportant skulls now, and the skull of Elizabeth Talbot once they exit the wastes. We end with the pair walking out of the mass as the sun begins to rise... (and winged shapes are seen in the sky above)
