In what felt like both moments and hours Crestin turned and carved into Knight Volsaid and she went down. I think in complete surprise to everyone. This really changed the priority of things, with her down we had to focus on ending her as quickly as possible. Norhm's silence paid off and made it so the clerics couldn't just get Volsaid back on her feet. Eventually we were able to outright end Volsaid, but then some funky shit happen. Guess her connection to her god was stronger than we could have guessed. Real fucking annoying. Also, small aside. That's who Erathis put their time and power into? That piece of shit knight? Seems like a god damn waste, but maybe Erathis has nothing better to do with their time than getting a little too involved in something they shouldn't. I digress. The knight clubhouse got thrown off the tree by Rahlok and we were in free fall, which worked to our advantage. The remaining people were more focused on saving their own ass rather than coming after us. Bad news, one of their casters got a sending off to the vampires, who arrived to assist knight volsaid. Again, Northerners are going to throw their cards in on that group? What a fucking waste. A few of them got away with Volsaid's body, sadly for the caster, he got stunned by Rahlok right before the club house hit the ground.
Looks like we won this battle, ended a few of them and I doubt Volsaid would come back and attempt anything. If she can come back. We decided to return home and take a week off. Siona wrote up her manuscript to talk about all the things we accomplished and embellished a bit on what "happened" to Volsaid and her group. Gosh darn Northerners taking out their anger on poor old Volsaid. Siona worked her ass off to get that document out, figured it would take a few days before it hits locally. After that Siona and I decided to get out of town. That felt really good as we just went out into the jungle for a few days. Eventually we came back to Fiddletown and let Vic expand her abilities on the locals in Fiddletown. Reading minds and digging a bit deeper into some of them to test things out. Seemed like she liked that a bit. We also sold the ring of invisibility and made a solid bit of coin on it. I went and turned some of that into local lake front property south of town. Bought 10 acres and surprised Siona with it. From there we just spent a nice evening on our new retirement home land and got to talk about our future.
