After having solved the puzzle hidden within what is suspected to be Exethanter's tower, a concealed book is revealed beneath the bookshelf on the fourth floor. Its tattered cover has only four words engraved upon it's surface, but why would this wizard be in possession of such a relic?
Their tutorial phase has come to an end. Thanks to the Martikov's, Bite Club has been accompanied from the easternmost to the westernmost corners of the country- but now it is time for our adventurers to spread their wings and discover for themselves what secrets Barovia has to offer... The wizards tower, was it?
An elderly Vistani seems to have her eyes on our party. Who could she be, and why does she appear to know each and every one of them by name?
In the distance, the mists of surrounding graves became sentient, howling with the might of a rampaging hurricane and swirling around nothing in particular. All of a sudden, a figure took form from within, that of Lucian, who's flesh had begun to dissolve in the gales as though it were made of pure acid. A smirk never died upon his lips. In place of the Father stood someone only familiar to Cedar: a man of tall stature, bruised, purple skin and skeletal fingers which outstretched toward Xaethriell. He spoke only two words, though they resonated through the graveyard as though they were spoken into their very minds for all to hear: "Hello, Nephew~"
Upon returning to Vallaki with the now critically injured Danika, the vampire within the party seems to have caught wind that not all is what it once seemed inside of this "sanctuary". Mere hours ago he felt unnerved, unable to venture or even maintain consciousness when in the presence of the local church. In their return, all seems far too... comfortable.
Troubled by his past which crippled the relationship between him and his father, Urwin finally confides in the party his deeply burried secrets of what went on that night at the farm...
Having uncovered some leads as to the mysteries of Vallaki, our party sets off in the early hours of the day of the Wolf's Head Jamboree as workers for the Blue Water Inn. Their coffee supply is running awfully low, and Urwin can't bring himself to face the tyrant that resides there: a man by the name of "Devain"...
The party arrives in Vallaki, as per Danika's hope. From the outside, the town seems relatively safe, however, the party may soon discover that all is not what it seems...
Your nightly routine played out as normal, or maybe not. You ate, you drank, you went to the bathroom and prepared yourself for a well rested evening. However you spent your beloved eight hours in slumber, you certainly didn't expect to wake up here...
