Session 20: And She was Seven

by Asharene Shadowthorn

Bael joins us. The king gives him some armor to wear for the adventure. Blackwood seems to be flirting with Remish. Jo uses plant growth to try and start the restoration of the grove.
 
Elias is starting to hear mammon speak to him. Mammon offers to give him his evocation spell early for 10k. (Eric has taken a level of Warlock due to the deal he made with Mammon when his father was released) The rest of us are not aware of this.
 
We all start to headout. WE have another conversation about bringing the Duregar with us. Remish puts it up to a vote. It's 3 to 3. Blackwood is the swing vote and votes to bring him.
 
Ashe makes some special shoes Doug can wear to help with the pain. If we are wrong about him, Ashe owes Elias 5gp.
 
Doug's shoes squeak as he walks and it's pretty. Elias refers to him as a betrayer in tow. Dan refers to Remish as a betrayer in tow because of his flirtations with Blackwood.
 
Doug leads the way and gets us through a secret door. Then we get to another door that is already open. All we know is someone has been here already. If there were any evidence, Jo and Franz got rid of it by accident. Doug figure out it must have been moon elves. WE continue on. It's pretty uneventful.
 
Jo finds Rothe and we eat like kings that night.
 
Later the next day we encounter a Roper and a hook horror. They try really hard to eat Elias and Ashe. It's pretty disastrous. We beat them, but not before we took A LOT of damage.
 
Shortly after we find the Dark Iron Tavern. Elias has been here before. He once dropped off a giant constrictor snake for some cash.
 
There are a lot of undesirables here. Mostly duregar.
 
We walk in. Jo approaches the bar and there is a dancing bear on top and it stops dancing when it sees Jo and gets all wide eyed with them. Jo buys drinks for everyone and talks to the bear. The drinks are awful!
 
The bear is actually not a bear and it is asking for help. The bear is actually a little girl that wears an amulet that transforms her into a bear. She friends with the ogre. Jo approaches the Ogre and tells him that his bear needs help. The ogre then looks at the ceiling and says he knows. He's been trying to "help" her all night. He's trying to avoid a fight and a fuss, as her bear friend has been captured. The ogre is looking at the ceiling and when we ask what he's staring at, he says it's "her" but we don't see anybody.
 
Elias is talking to a patron in thieves can about the bear. He then realizes that the Ogre has a scar on his eye that he recognizes as a scar he once saw on a goblin child. We then realize the Ogre was looking up because they were actually looking up, because it's an illusion and they were looking UP at someone.
 
Elias is able to convince the patron to let us have the bear and we lead it out of the bar. The ogre follows and Elias confirms the Ogre is very short, because his hand goes into it's body. Definitely an illusion.
 
The goblin's name is Bryza. Elias confronts her and asks what's she doing. Elias knew Bryza to be a mule. She had come here to save her friend. The bear...she's actually a moon elf whom is 7 or 8 years old. They are the ones who went through the door from before.
 
Ashe recognizes her as Mia from her home town. apparently she's here to help find a cure for Elysia. She heard it from a lady who visited their city. Her name was Magdalina. She was with a fellow named Lycos. They helped provide the information for the cure.
 
Elias asks Bryza if she is on a job, and we learn he was supposed to deliver something down here, but it was stolen from her by a drow. It was a skull, a beautiful skull. The drow was a male back down the tunnel. HIs hair was slicked back with 2 long pointy fluffs? Wearing Wizard's robes.
 
He was so excited to get the skull as he would be the most popular person in Sorsere. Franz knows of this place. It's a place that is on another plane of existence. It's a school for male drow. The skull had jewels for the teeth and eyes. None of us recognize this description.
 
I guess we are going to take them to Eldoria with us.
 
REmish babysits the kids while we go back inside.
 
We see a mindflayer inside and are immediately on high alert. He claims he's not a threat to us. He has defected from the Elder Brain. whom is who all mind flayer worship and serve.
 
This mindflayer's name is Honzokwheen. He's a studier of alchemy and dances a little jig for us. He's really proud of this. We learn he only eats really smart bad guys. He looks at Franz like he is just a tasty treat.
 
Honzokwheen tells Franz that he can see Blackwood at the front of his mind, and also that he has a hatred for someone named Remish. He also sees that he feels guilt for someone named Morpheus.
 
Anyway, we talk to the myochanoid, Maliecean. He gives us the recipe for this cure because we helped save the bear girl.
 
He gives us an ampial (a glass bottle that looks like it's completely sealed)
 
If someone comes in contact with it, it will kill them. If the potion is given to someone who is not infected by the disease, it will make them deathly ill. Doug drinks one vial and is instantly better. Maliecean gives a second vial.
 
He gives us the list of ingredients and how to make them. It's about a month long process.
 
Mia tells us that Dinklewing is outside of Hammerfall with Lucien. Dinklewing is a family bone dragon and Lucien is a mute chofure who knows how to drive Dinklewing. MIa....a 7 year old elf, was sent with Dinklewing and Lucian to find Ashe.
 
She tells Ashe pop pop died. and the LightThorns are possibly getting the lupel orchards, and the will is going to be. We decide to go back to Hammerfall and fly Dinklewing back to Ithilhithnal. Then we can use him to fly to Eldoria. We think the drow that Bryza was looking for went that way.
 
We prepare to head back to Hammerfall, and this is where we end.
