Question

 

Tell about a mistake you have made recently.

Lostin Nearly all of Lostin's mistakes are in his past, made because of his youthful mind, so filled with ideas and little practical knowledge. These days the mistakes made by the cat with character are so small and insignificant that they slip the mind as soon as they have occurred.
  Ark The biggest mistake Ark feels he has made recently was trusting information to a foreign entity. After revealing the existence of that Gazrean ore to that darn Djinn, he put a lot of innocent people in danger along with his party, and he feels guilty for letting such a thing slip. He is now conflicted with who he can trust outside of his group.
  Wave the biggest regret I have is focusing on the group instead of me. I mean I have this rich backstory that I'm ignoring in favor of what? Dealing with demons an unflooding a world?
  Seom Rando While participating in the kidnapping and holding for ransom the evil mother of the warlord of the neighboring stronghold, Seom accidentally let her slide into the volcano. It was a huge mistake, and if he were to be asked about it, Seom would insist that she was trying to kill herself. However, no one was there to whiteness the event, so he snuck off, collected his things, and left the area for good. He still feels a bit of guilt about it, but it's all in the past now.
  Whelm Staying out of it for so long, I regret watching battles that I could have participated in, fighting evil with the Doorkickers
  Rodger Lastname The only mistake Rodger feels he made recently was not abolishing the peculiar institution in the city of brass. He does not regret rescuing Uno, and he'd do it again. If only he had time to do more.
  Klaidicardos Signing up with this bunch of amoral beings.
  Sambra Sambra makes many mistakes throughout his time adventuring, but most recently his biggest mistake has been not putting enough forethought in his spell selection considering he's been fighting with demons and devils and living on a different plane of existence... he could have gained insight into the mystical arts from some of the mages in Sigil to perfect his spell list and be a better mate to his friends.   Miles Miles recently tried to do some infiltration with Rodger that failed amazingly. The got no information and paraded around as women for 3 hours.

Synopsis

Drug to the surface, in a magical net by Redcaps, half the party found they were expected. After a short conversation, the away team went back for the rest of the party and then to Ark's old residence. They found his former domicile to be ransacked and ruined by the flood. The teleportation circle though was intact.   Returning to the surface the party met with Auntie Fleta and the Coven of the Red. Auntie Fleta talked over "tea" with the party about thier incursion of the The Doomvault. With that information, they then proceeded to obtain more details on the Night Cauldron of Chernobog. Miles cast Legend Lore and found out about the Coven of the Night Cauldron. Before retiring for the evening the party performed more divination locating Rodger's family and Gundren Rockseeker's corpse.   Upon awakening to having the ability to cast wish Ark tried to revive his father, only for it to fail. Miles stepped in and called upon his diety, Lady in Blue, who appeared and told them that Ark's father's soul was not free.

Notes

What was learned

Coven of the Night Cauldron

Typically, hags who venerate Chernobog refuse to work with one another. However, the Night Cauldron promotes unity among its members in pursuit of their lofty goal of bringing about eternal night. The winter hag “sisters” Anastasiya, Irina, and Klavdiya are shining examples of the cooperation the cult fosters. They joined the Night Cauldron at relatively young ages—Anastasiya, the youngest, joined at the tender age of 83—and have worked together ever since. They are intensely protective of each other and have learned to maximize their abilities while training in sorcerous ways.
They made the winter months crueler and darker but retired to safe places during the longer summer days. When they learned the Night Cauldron had a new leader, they offered their services to him, they were pleased to discover that Nikoli wanted to better organize the cult’s efforts.
