Session 64: Off to the Pyramid- Oh hi Ash!

by Asharene Shadowthorn

It's CorellonEmber 7th at 3am.
 
Randi is super late again
 
Hunter's notes:
Garoyle sounds fade and everything gets dark. Through the round Angst appears claiming we need to go right away. We fail to get Hadr and Franz with us. Franz re-succumbs to Jezabel's charm.
 
In the shadowfell we meet Dermish then Mordenkainen who brings us to the bar where Asmodeus has been residing. It's just a figment of his power through and Dermish's Ruby Rod was fake.
 
We end up back in the cityby the castle in a bar. Eloi finds us and tells us a week has passed.
 
Ash is back. Angst is here. Dermish presses one of the buttons on his fake ruby rod, and it shoots a firework that spells out #1 Son.
 
I guess he's the ex ruler of the 9 hells now.
 
Franz, Hydr and Lyra have disappeared. A dark mist had appeared over the castle. Franz and Hydr are missing. Lyra did get sent back to her group.
 
I guess we were gone for a while before we reappeared?
 
It's It is now the 14th of PanAelsh, roughly 10am. (to sync with the other group) Thanks a lot Angst.
 
Elias asks Eloi what's happened since we've been gone. He doesn't really know. He's just been waiting on us and thought we were dead. I guess the miners are ok. The werewolves are fine? Chill has been removed from his post. Eloi met a sweet girl. I guess he's dating Lyza's sister now. She had told him we disappear at the Magnuses the last she saw us.
 
We decide to gather the miners, the werewolves, and anyone else we can to help us go find Hydr and Franz and go fight the Magnuses.
 
We discuss possibly freeing Milekie while we are here, whom is being imprisoned and siphoned for power by the siphanites. Joe works on making some more Galvanian Sage candle. They are successful in doing so.
 
Eloi and Lyza start hooking up. Its weird, cuz she's only 19. The next day we head to Anastaz.
 
On the way, we climb a mountain, then end up in a valley and there is is an avalanche. We all manage to avoid it, But we are spotted by a Roc we were trying to avoid. Panfyr is able to literally frighten it away.
 
We end up just flying the rest of the way with everyone.
 
WE make it to the village.
 
It's 4pm PanAelsh the 14th.
 
Panfyr is a little salty with Ash, because Ash chose to save and NPC over her, and there is some drama over Eloi/Lyza.
 
We meet the miners. They thought we had died, but are happy to see us.
 
We ask them to help us get to the pyramid that powers that Magnus's castle. They offer to help us get there.
 
They tell us that some of the drow there are vampires and they are worshipers of Kanchelsis.
 
We also ask them to join forces with us. The werewolves are no longer here.
 
Joe scrys Franz. He's eating rats and there is an unconscious Hydr next to him very pale. He's not breathing, but then he sits up. NOOOOOOOO! he starts to scurry after a rat. NOOOOOO! He's a spawn.
 
Reginald and another werewolf come find us. They did go check out the pyramid and learned there is a sealed entrance to the pyramid. Some kind of writing they couldn't read. They were attacked by Drow though. He offers to lead us down there.
 
The miners offer to go to the castle to cause a distraction there. Werewolves are going to go with us to the pyramid. They will try to send Amy with her Timber Wolves with the miners
 
WE head out, and because we have the miners with us, we get through it pretty quickly. It takes 2 days.
 
It's PanAelsh the 15th 8am.
 
We stop by a gnome village on our way. We are greeted by a drow. Panfyr is very nervous here. Elias recognizes this drow to match the description of the drow who may have taken Bryza's jeweled skull.
 
The drow assures Elias that Bryza is safe. Elias demands to know where she is. he tells us she is closer to Pontimunde.
 
Apparently Bryza owes him 1000GPs. Elias demands that they be made even or else.
 
We learn he is trying to get to the pyramid, but needs that very skull and he believes that Elias has it. Apparently it's the key to opening the door.
 
Neither group of us have it though.
 
He warns us that something dangerous went through the gnome village. It looked ritualistic.
 
We learn from him that the Grimoire Hearts have the skull we are looking for, and we need it to get in the temple. At that moment Lyra gets a notification in her book. It's Dustera. Apparently Gloom brought her Lyra's lost book. Duestera fills us in about the skull and how the other group were able to find another way into their pyramid without it.
 
We decide to go check out this pyramid without the skull. We learn that the gnome village that was killed is now on their way, but something isn't right about them.
 
Reginald offers to take care of the gnomes while we head to the pyramid.
 
Joe casts pass without a trace and we head out.
 
Lyza has been learning some healing magic and she is excited to help us with it.
 
We get to the pyramid. It's about 1000 ft. The top tip of it is golden with a beam shooting out of it. The whole thing is smooth and made of obsidian. There is a pool of water underneath one of the corners.
 
Panfyr suggests that this could be our way in.
 
There are no drow here surprisingly, but we do see a skeleton dwarf with a map. We grab the map. There is a letter from John Harrison on his person. He's looking for something for John Harrison.
 
Elias examines the water source. It is luminescent but clean. Elias uses mage hand to take some water out and it stops glowing. Joe puts a mushroom in it and when it comes out it is cleaner. Elias theorizes that if we perhaps clean ourselves we can get into the pyramid?
 
This is where we end.
 
It's PanAelsh the 15th 1pm
