All meet back up at camp.

A cloaked man is waiting.

The man in the hood is Addikus Windslayer.

He tells them the high king is dead.

And the prince.

The Kingfishers are destabilizing the east.

He wants to correct his ancestral mistake when Ivoris killed the last dragon, synapsid.

Mission is to get Warden of the Woods, Barren Blackcherry, butcherbird. He has the dragonlance.

Harrowing on Pacura.

Dragonkin were formed when Synapsid died.


outside of crinian, Addikus meets with them in secret and tells them stories of the ancient dragon Synapsid and those who worshipped him. They became the first dragon kin when the god fell to the 6 heroes of man, these were slaves freed by the attacking dragons. The story goes that Synapsid accepted his fate because he knew those 6 heroes would balance the world on their own without his meddling. He attacked them on a path along The Firefang Jags. He sent many of them crashing to their graves at the base of the mountain. The 6 heroes defeated the last dragon and it turned into the Synapse to await another time when a little chaos was needed to balance the scales.

He then tells them that the High King Orion Skytracer and Prince Damarrus were killed when they left Arboran by a dragon that was enraged. Maximus is dealing with his own threat of animals attacking civilians as their skin burns emerald. The High throne of Galfin was empty for the first time in over 200 years.

Addikus asks the party to finish their contract the Merkaynians gave them and return the ancestral weapon to Addikus' home of Arboran. He says only in the village of Nak can he complete the ritual to bring back the God of order and chaos.

Maybe then the world can settle back to peace.
 
 
 
 
 
Walk to Arboran to see the siege beginning.

Arygos stays in the outskirts because night is about to fall.

The others find a way through a cave into the Hedgespire.

Talk down some wolves.

Meet Maven Grimbind, Wegelia and Addikus Windslayer.

1 hour until sundown and Triss attacks the enemy troops, starting the siege early.

The Red Herons army was already attacking before Blackcherry arrived. They all fought off the battle as Sossari charged up totems with electricity to create a barrier around the castle.

Arygos, Dex and Bedlam held back Blackcherry's army once it arrived. Sossari and Trss used magic to defend the walls.

Arygos and Bedlam defeated Blackcherry as Dex took out his army Triss fended off the Red Herons attack at the loss of the remaining Thistlewatch.

The Red Heron retreated as they brought the dragonlance to the pillar at Hedgespire.

Windslayer ranted on how gods meddle too much, he traces the corrupted Synapsid symbol into his castle using Sossari's totems.

The symbol froze the party as Maven released the magic months to neutralize the partys magic.

Windslayer took the dragonlance and destroyed the egg.

Black flame surged into Arygos and white into bedlam. Causing some discoloration.

They awoke still feeling paralyzed from the spell.

They are in the cell beneath Hedgespire.

The Red Heron walks down and says how dragons are evil and the Kingfishers will bring order back to the world.

He tosses you a white crystal and tells you this is the last time he saves you. Reveals himself to be Chris.

Bedlam can use the crystal against Arygos.

A spectral Pathos appears, the last soul sucked into Arygos by his axe. Pathos breaks the chains of the door.
 
211th year. 47th day of Firstfrost was his death. Which means the new Eastking would take over a year from there.
Because the king had no sons, Rudelf his older brother is now the Electorate. Half a year after the death date, the Electorate will ask the clan leaders to vote. They will either vote for Rudelf knowing he will decline or more likely the will vote for Dominus Rawlin. Since he is not a direct kin, this vote is more ceremonial. If a child of the Eastmonarch does not get enough votes or if a Elected Eastking declines, an Eastern Moot is declared. This Eastern Moot will take place 2 months before the Year of Mourning is up so a winner can be selected and a transition can begin for the winner of the Eastern Moot can take over on 212th year. 47th day of Firstfrost
