Session 28: Inherited Nightmare

by Gek Ferox

Katsuko Estate 29/7/1436


  • 1st room- 2 dudes we killed, the room has been searched through, marking on floor- faded scuff marks circular shape very destroyed and old, second scuff mark on floor by the wall making a semicircle

  • 2nd room- no one in here, we all individually hear a flute playing behind our heads and mist flows down our shoulders, Niamh fails the saving throw and falls onto the floor

  • Niamh wakes up in the room however, the rest of the party isn't there, there are no old blood stains and no slashes on the walls, Niamh can't see herself, young Kayumi and Akibimi are there , Kayumi is trying to hold a blade, a whisp of a ghost is in front of her adn she is focusing on it, Akibimi is reaching from behind Kayumi and fixing her stance, a door slides open and an Oni comes in (white hair), Niamh doesn't speak Oni so doesn't know what he says, oppressive presence, he points outside, seems angry, frustrated, dissatisfaction, seemingly scolding Kayumi, Akibimi steps forward, bows and says something to the man, he reaches out a hand to Akibimi, there is a sense of fear in the room, Kayumi turns back to the invisible target, she seems nervous, she makes a pretty good cut but not ideal, she looks expectantly at the guy, 5 others enter the room, they kneel down around Kayumi at the edge of the room, the scary guy gestures to the people in the room, Kayumi points hesitantly to one person, the guy barks and points at Akibimi, she points to a person, its another Oni, doesn't look particularly terrifying and seems more respected and higher up than the rest, he stands up and goes to the middle, Akibimi goes to his place, Kayumi and the guy fight, it's obvious the guy is way way better than her, he holds back at the start, the scary man barks at him and the guy starts to use his full force, Kayumi is super struggling now, the master says something to Kayumi, the guy pierces her straight through her shoulder, Niamh tries to cast a healing spell on her- nothing seems to happen, they keep fighting, the master shouts more things, the guy raises his sword and aims for his head, Kayumi freezes, before the guy strikes the master kicks Kayumi away and stops the guy, he gives a had to Kayumi to pull her back to her feet and they speak more, Niamh wakes up again

  • Arthur and Gek- see Niamh asleep and her eyes are darting around the place, no immediate issues, slight tense in her body, faint trail of the mist around her mouth, (Niamh casts the healing spell) her eyes light up under her eyelids, the old blood pool in the room shakes and a spider lilly shoots out of the ground and soaks up the blood, Gek and Oscar hear the flute again with no mist and Niamh gasps herself awake

  • Niamh tries to message Kayumi and it doesn't go through- something is blocking it, there's a dull scream of pain in the background

  • We kill more dudes, in a blue Onis pants of something there's a painting on a scroll of someone standing with a sword with a circle on the bamboo floor, the person is striking their sword and hitting bamboo, some sort of speed training regimen

  • We kill more dudes, Gek is medusa now because WIld Magic lol, Louis knows Kayumi is dying

  • We split up to look for Kayumi and doors close behind us, Niamh and Gek together, Arthur and Louis together

  • A+L find Kayumi in a big room super super dying fighting the ghost that was behind her menacingly, Arthur puts the divine confetti on his sword so he can kill ghosts
