Session Three: Shadows of Enchantment: Confronting Demons, Trapped in the Fey Wild

by Asharene Shadowthorn

We stand in front of a goat demon that has just been sucked out of Mark's arm. We start to fight this demon as Angst tries to tend to Private Mark's wound. As we fight, the mayor runs up wondering what the fuck is going on.
 
Rosalin, in the cell offers to get rid of the demon if we let her go, but Quarter Master tells her to fuck off. The mayor argues to let her out, but QM is not having it.
 
QM then runs over to Angst and gives him a potion as he has been very damaged. Ash goes down as she tries to attack the goat demon. The mayor starts to run over to Rosalin to free her, because he believes she can help us. However, Franz tackles him and stops him.
 
Angst gets a good blow on the goat demon, followed by a good blow from Jo. QM get's Ash up with a potion. Ash is able to deliver a killing blow. As he dies flies fill up the room blocking all or our site.
 
Jo helps lure out the flies. QM starts to cough, and he is coughing out flies. His body is starting to decay. Elias runs and gets a doctor to help.
 
Franz has seen an affliction like this before back when Isolde was originally around. It's a disease that causes poison while you have it. Angst is able to use his Lay On hands paladin ability to remove the disease from QM. The doctor is able to help Private Mark and QM with their wounds.
 
Private Mark has to get his arm amputated. She gives him a little bit of milk of the poppy to help him relax. Elias has a terrible burn on his leg from the demonic symbol that was in his pocket. It turned fire hot when the demon emerged.
 
Maggie seems super interested in Angst. He's super oblivious to it. She asks him to call her Magdalene instead of Maggie. It's pretty adorable. As Angst walks away embarrassed QM whispers something to her.
 
We discuss Eldoria and how it's the Big Lupel of this realm. (The Big Apple). We get a long rest. QM is doing ok, but is developing a fever. The doctor asks Angst to come by and visit Magdalene every once in a while.
 
Elias discovers the 10GP in his pouch and is able to figure out it was Ash. He throws the money on the ground and storms out after she hugs him and tries to convince him to let her be kind and accept the gift. She put a butterfly clip in his hair.
 
Just then one of the lady's from the witch coven runs up, but then gets spooked and runs away. Joe takes off after her and chases her to an ally. Ash takes off after them as well. However, Elias is getting beat up by debt collectors. He had run off to try and find the person who stole his coin purse to kill him and get his money back.
 
At the request of Elias, Joe and Ash only frighten the men away instead of killing them. We offer to help Elias track down the person who took his coin purse.
 
Elias calls in a favor with a mutual acquaintance of Toadmine's, and find that Toadmine has been arrested. Just before we head out, the witch lady we had been chasing walks in. We grab on to her and escort her back to the barracks. Since we want to keep her separated from Rosalin, we take her to the shed. We learn that she is a new member of the group and she doesn't know much about the plans of these witches.
 
Meanwhile, Elias tells Toadmine he may be able to get him out of jail, but it's for a favor. He gets the guy's name that stole his purse. His name is Weasel. Taadmine says the money is probably gone because Weasel was at the whorehouse.
 
Joe runs up to Elias and gets the potion from him so we can use it on Sarah, the witch we captured.
 
Elias forces the potion down her throat and holds her mouth open. Elias cuts off part of her finger. Their plan is to get everyone to the haunted house so she can kill Blackwood when nobody is there.
 
She starts to refuse to answer our questions, but as Elias approaches to take another finger, we see she's very high from the potion, finally. We just needed to wait.
 
She tells us that PIM is how Rosalin has been spying on us. It's a green demon with wings. He's invisible. He's been telepathically giving her information about us.
 
Angst rushes back to the QM to let him know the plan, and it excites him.
 
We learn that Sarah joined the cult because her husband is an asshole. They were able to help make him agreeable so she got along with him. Also they have an actual book club and she likes it. Also having people under their sway and summoning demons to do their bidding, and eventually take over the city turning everyone into demons and ruling with Avalora.
 
Captain Blackwood finds us and we go back to the Barracks and tie Sarah up next to QM who guards her with his sword.
 
Angst uses Detect Good and Evil and finds that there is a demon creature inside with her, but he does not make it known. Joe grabs a bag of flower and throws it onto Rosalyn and we see the demon run away. Joe kills it with radiant damage, and this reveals Rosalin's true nature.
 
Corinna walks us back to the shed, and gives us all shovels. She then has us dig a 10 ft hole. We then cover it with grass to hide it, making a pit trap, and we wait for them to come. Ash hides just in case Entangle is needed to trap folks. We camouflage our selves and build a perimeter and prepare for battle.
 
Night time falls and we are all in position. They start to quietly, but quickly approach and 4 of them fall into the pit trap. 6 other avoid the trap. We easily defeat the other 6 with the help of the city guard.
 
We then hear the creaking of a window. Angst sees someone crawling through the window where QM is. Angst sneaks up and kills them. We tie up the 4 in the pit. Put them in the jail cell.
 
Angst finds some parchment with symbols on it on the dead bodies, but it bursts into flame as soon as he picks it up. However, he detects something in the bushes. Angst checks it out and only finds a pile of snow with 2 sets of mastiff paw prints.
 
Elias finds an 8ft tall mirror IT seems to be a strange portal under some kind of conjuration spell. One would need some kind of key to get through it.
 
Elias touches the mirror with the unholy symbol of demons. He sees a naked woman made of wood and leaves. As Elias touches the mirror, she grabs his hand and starts to come through. She tries to convince him to join her, but he is able to resist and pulls away from her. She tells us Isoldae is there and gets her for us.
 
Somehow we lose our reflections and no longer see the barracks behind us. We've somehow gone through the mirror. When we look back, we see the mirror is completely gone, and this is where we end.
