Session 51 - Dreams, Stolen Amulet & Sailors Devils

by Kaito "Oreson" Brinejaw

We dock into the port of Corshoula as the sun is starting to set.
 
Captain Kitri usually stays in Corshoula for a few days but unsure for the most part. Said there's various places to stay, usually stays at the Weaver and Butcher if he doesn't stay on the ship.
 
The first thing we notice when stepping off the boat onto the dock and start walking the vast amount of difference races. One that catches us off guard is a large form, in a basic leather tunic, about 7 foot tall. Animalistic face, three pronged hand, tufts of fur on face. One singular horn from the front of their nose with a silver cap on the end.
I notice as the Loxorhos bends over, I see a burn mark on the back of their neck.
Closest map maker is up in the Shrinking Shore Markets. Go to Blotted who is a cartographer procurer rather than a map maker.
 
A Raven Queen temple used to reside in Corshoula but was burned down 10 years ago and all acolytes killed.
 
I notice the Tabaxi and the Loxorhos talking to each other and that they noticed the platinum handed over to the man tending a ledger.
 
Speaking to the Tortle that runs Blotted called Godfrey Kleets said we could help him by finding his lost amulet, a golden u-semi circle with three prongs going up from the centre, slightly curved at the top. Whole thing a darker golden colour.
 
Bashara's a tavern round the corner from Blotted. We get food and board and when speaking to the Loxodon, called Bashara behind the bar I notice a burn mark again but notice it's likely a brand of some sort. Maybe from the Greyclaw Coastline which we know has ties to slavery with the animalistic races. The Loxodon told me it's a mark of slavery, forced to work in Gravin, the centre of the Greyclaw Coastline. The First Consortium don't believe in the rights of animalistic races.
 
I brought up to the group about my annoyance of myself for not checking where the Word of Moradin was located and asked that depending on what we find out in our research about the Sky People, if we could go back on ourselves to get the Word of Moradin and then continue in our journey in Lanali.
 
I told Austar about my dream the night before and then head to bed.
 
I wake up during the night and see a light coming from the windows, a deep green glow, spilling across the entire of the market roads and harbour. The glow itself is the ocean. I start to see dots appear in the ocean, over a thousand of these dots, heads above the waves. I see no one in the streets. I turn to look at Austar and in his place is a figure in coral armour, black eyes melting like ink down a page. Beard of seaweed and algae. Looked tall and slender. Skin a blueish/white like a drowned corpse. Hand outstretched in a "let me take you" kind of way.
 
In the morning we head to the Song Circle where a lot of the churches of divinity are held to try and find Godfrey's amulet as well as the Raven Queen memorial. We need to enter the city and then pass through the Evergreen Borough to the centre of the city. Quite near the Harmon Chambers.
 
As we got into the city, just off one of the streets we notice a commotion of a crowd clapping towards individuals moving through the crowd on horseback. An elven man and the other horse has a bipedal, furred ape/monkey like face with a long tail.
In the Evergreen Borough, the trees themselves seem unnaturally large, with homes within them. We notice a lot of the denizens here are of the animalistic races.
 
We arrive at the Song Circle and go to the the temple of Lathander where Godfrey said he went to on the day he lost his amulet. I used Locate Object on the amulet and it's below us under a storm drain. We start to open it and some guards come over and ask us what we're doing. We explain we're looking for an amulet dropped from our grandfather and they help us lift the grate. We all send our elemental companions down the drain and follow the passage to the left where the Locate Object pointed me towards. The guards seem on edge with the strangeness of our companions and use of magic?
By a crossroads in the storm drains I notice a creature face down with the amulet being clutched by it's claws. We get the amulet and deliver it back to Godfrey. I cast identify on it so he knows what it does and it's an Amulet of Long Life, which triples the wearers life span.
Cheaper magic shop called The Sewing Voyage or more expensive shop The Comet Expanse.
 
We start making our way to the edge of the city to leave to go towards Lendin College. We see stables with horses, mules, large camel like creatures, a camel/rodent like creature but size of a pony, and a two legged bipedal bird/lizard creature similar to our Momoko's. Black and white belly scaled top feathered. We decide to not rent creatures for travel and decide to just walk to Lendin College.
 
On our journey I use the Curio Seeker ability and it points North Westerly, likely towards the group of islands around Crossroad's Knight but not the Crossroad's itself. Behind us is a another group with a cart in tow. During our journey we hear a scream behind and a big portal of flame opening up with two figures walking out of it, shouting for the black bird. They shouted who dares harm Salarius the Blazing Prince of Hell. This I assume is Sailor as last we saw him was when Raskin thunderwaved him off him. We manage to defeat the devils fairly quickly but one of the troupe of the caravan behind us was killed in the fight.
