Session 10 notes
 
 
 
It’s a new dawn.
 
 
 
So, uh, Tesse is just gone in the early morning.
 
 
 
Nickton finds a milky eye that can move on its own and in Nickton and Tesse’s room is a message that says “For you, My dear”.
 
This eye can move freely on its own despi tree not being attached to anything as of now.
 
 
 
About 5 minutes pass and Tesse comes in. She says there’s been some kind of attack on the village and she has been grievously injured: she’s covered in blood.
 
 
 
I am shut out of the room. I don’t know why. Holden arrives not long after to ask some questions and tell us something.
 
 
 
Holden saw something last night to prove our innocence. Said it looked like some combo of a Mangy dog/ Old woman.
 
We have an out and so we skip town as fast as we can.
 
 
 
Some figure is standing looking down on the village from an opposite edge. Some 7ft tall figure wearing bright blue tartan under some armour.
 
 
 
Everyone’s a little stressed. Nickton and Tesse are very tensly discussing what they need to share with us and Nickton is very emotional; far more than he ever has been before.
 
 
 
Tesse is under the effect of an 8th level modify memory.
 
 
 
She explains what she has witnessed over her life. How she was saved by Nycton when she was young. How she was tortured by hags and had been traumatised by the events than transpired.
 
 
 
I cast identify. Tesse is under the effect of a power spell that modified her memories. Levi dispels it, I tried to stop him. I did, I really did.
 
 
 
Tesse remembers. “Vile lives”. She is the hag, she may be inside Tes. She is taking over.
 
 
 
“She never would, she is no monster”.
 
 
 
Vile- suffix used by a few prominent Hags. Hags known as vile are known for their big showy displays of torture. They take great pleasure in the spectacle of suffering.
 
 
 
As someone who never grew up with a father, I am deeply inspired by his resolve and his optimism in the face of this bleak situation. We will help Tesse, we all will and he will do more than any of us ever could have done.
 
 
 
This figure who has been stalking us is a firbolg. They weald a green bow.
 
 
 
Nickton comes back. Stoic but silent. Something was wrong but he was never at all in a position of good metal health.
 
 
 
After travelling for about 3 days. We stop in Ch’vosi to buy the horses and gather resources.
 
 
 
After a few other days of travel, we arrive in Seriaté. We settle at a tavern called “the puddle shark”. It is run by a combo of humans, or a and half-orcs as they give us directions to Mill Hill, and the tavern known as The Devil’s Advocate; the place we were meeting the Chengichar. He’s sat at a private table, at the back, say “the winds comes on the waves”.
 
 
 
There are 3 people:
 
 
 
Chengichar- Dark hair, granite skin (Kedaphin dwarf), incredible suit, heart appearance, missive cigar, gold along his arms. An icon in every sense.
 
 
 
Nervous half elf
 
 
 
Fellow dwarf, maybe a relative of some sort.
 
 
 
 
 
Lombani-
 
We have done Ch’vosi a massive favour by doing what we have done. Lombani couldn’t keep a word to save his life (now proven). Far too ambitious for his own good.
 
 
 
The Queen-
 
Puts on a facade of being a saviour but she’s got dirty money. She’s a massive fascist and he’s a massive anarchist.
 
 
 
L’leiocadhil-
 
They’re called “the big Urgh”. He knew that L’leiocadhil was associated with the Queen.
 
 
 
Emsha Buker-
 
He thought he was playing both sides b it he was just an idiot caught in the middle. Lombani sent him on a suicide mission to attack a ship, supposedly that’s why the prince and his wyvern riders intervene as quickly as he did.
 
 
 
Getting into P’hicoi-
 
 
 
Explain how we’ve made some enemies within L’leiocadhil. We want to know if we can call in the Chengichar’s boys as a hit squad.
 
 
 
We explain not far from here is a small ruin of a large castle, largely flooded but it’s the place that the Urgh is pulling its strings from.
 
There’s a Vampire who lives up there; locals will know more about him. Some lord who wanted to join Prysula and he never heard back, taking a massive grudge over it. Then he’s a vampire, Chengichar doesn’t know how.
 
 
 
2nd set of terms- He’s facing a lot of pressure rn. There are some woods outside P’hychoi who are cutting woods down, we get a place to stay, a ship, a crew and a hitsquad.
 
 
 
These mercs are being funded by Panachea company. They are a large standing army for hire. They’re on a scale no other company approaches. 20/30K men. A lot of time, you get what you pay for. If you want a job done they’ll do it, if you don’t wanna pay, it’s real cheap but you won’t get it done. It coats the southern tip of the peninsula that con seals the road to P’hychoi.
