Session I: The Missing Daughter Report

General Summary

Having awoken from a strange dream, each of the heroes entered the small and quaint village of Riverview.   After meeting several of the townsfolk, it became apparent that the village was beset by a small group of bandits calling themselves the Crimson Blades, and that they were becoming quite the nuisance to all whom lived within the village.   Speaking with the village's official, Balon Blacktyde, you were told to 'bring them to justice', and that the safe return of the Mayor's missing daughter was the top priority.   Unsatisfied with this information, your party went to speak with the Mayor himself, who delivered unto you a ransom letter he supposedly received, asking for the delivery of 5,000 lumens to an ancient oak by a sect of old elven ruins.   Having been supplied with this information, and the state of Linnea's room, you set out for the bandit caves in hopes to return the Mayor's daughter safely.   Arriving at the bandit caves, you opted for the diplomatic route, attempting to speak with the bandits, who seemed happy to oblige, and took you to their leader.   While inside, you witnessed some kind of deal being made with a half orc of some stature before he swiftly departed.   Outside, the remaining party members deftly decided not to attack the half orc who was passing by.   Inside the caves, you discovered that Linnea Eirwhist, the Mayor's daughter, left of her own accord and was in love with the leader of the Crimson Blades; Toren Denerim.   Linnea handed you her ornate jeweled hairpiece and asked that you return to her father and exclaim her wants to not return, or better yet, that she was killed.   As this transaction concluded, a massive and echoing boom shook the surrounding landscape as a massive rift opened above the village. In dire need, the heroes and the Crimson Blades, along with Linnea, made haste to the village.   Arriving at the village you saw naught but destruction and death, and upon making your way to the village square, you encountered several villainous figures wreaking havoc on the townsfolk and buildings alike.   With most of the village destroyed, you entered combat in an effort to save what you could.   Seeing the Mayor run through with a blade at the hands of a large silver dragonborn, you fought valiantly before the treacherous figures used some sort of spell to escape.   Several of the heroes succumbed to their wounds, falling unconscious before your arrival at the Mayor's gasping body.   He cried out, "The key... The key.. It was.. A prison...." before passing away.   Several months have since passed on the road to recovery for the small village of Riverview, during which many things have changed.
