Session 39: Fear of the Dark

by Gek Ferox

### Cathedral of Hope
 

  • Irina is stinky

  • Statue of Avacyn that had its head on the ground before but now is fixed, long hair pretty, its like time is going backwards

  • Stained glass- Avacyn, concept rejecting the messiah, she seems not emotive- don’t really know what she’s thinking

  • Stained glass- Pose of action, vow of the prophet, precipitance to action, seen something similar in depictions of gods of war

  • Huge demonic thing getting stabbed has broken horns and insectoid eye, hand has 6 finger on left hand, Avacyn- rage, fury, willpower, dedication, force, purposeful, this is the death of the devil, casting out, triumph, in depictions like this they are often only thematic, rarely depicting the direct physical events and more the concept of what happen like an abstraction

  • Avacyn, sand is blocking the background something is different, she holds up her spear with willful protection

  • Lots more but they’re destroyed

  • Niamh flies towards a window on the other side that is broken and sand flowing through, see the sky through a gap- think you see something but dont know what it is, push some sand out of the way, city of Gloomwraught, lights blaring, looking down from a tower, the sky is different, the people are missing, something is calling to you, voice- to hear my voice is to know that you are death to see my face is to know that you are blind, to feel my…… (touch is to know that…?)- Niamh doesnt remember the voice as its like the end of existance

  • NIAMH GETS 2 FAILED DEATH SAVES, cant hear or see anything anymore

  • Your form was plundged into the realm of Shyish

  • On the sand inside the cathedral- pillar jutting out looks like the back half of the spear of avacyn, ie. a statue thats covered in sand

  • Double doors with sigils on them, screaming behind the door,

  • Sorin is behind us he tells us to maintain composure, this place exists out of time, I have done some research on something I think you in particular will find interesting, and with you returning to my side perhaps I could show it to you,brace yourself in both mind and heart, he guestures towards the doors and goes towards them

  • We follow Sorin, he places his hand on the double doors, they swing outwards through him, we feel our bodies being lighter, whisps of ethereal energy float off us we are slightly see through, step through the doorway

  • Figure in plate-mail runs through us, charges through a large circular room, pattern tile floor, city of gloomwraught in the distance, city of havoc in the distance, it’s under assault, 2 pitfiends tearing buildings apart, devils climbing walls, 3 guards enter the room and fight against the devils entering the room, bone devils, bearded devils, a pitfiend, first figure- limps into the building, dead, DEMETER comes into the room- she still has her antlers,

  • One of the cool epic dudes rip Demeters antlers off and she crushes him into a tiny ball

  • Demeter walks into the temple and goes to the staircase and gets the blade of onyx back with 9 skulls that are all not lit (now 3 are lit, the dragon was the 4th)

  • We also get all the info from that one shot we did

  • We tell Sorin that we saw demeter and that there are 4 skulls lit, he tells us its the 9 lives stealer, theres lots of prophecies, whatever you may find you may not consider the truth, the land you hail from experiences cardinal directions and works different to here, space between edges are divided into sections, he only knows that somethgin at the centre pint of each of those sections is connected to the 9 lives stealers, theres 4 cardinal and 9 ordinal directional in the shadowfell

  • Sorin- is kinda weird he’s out of time with himself, teh one who took Arthurs heart if the one of the future, the one who gave it back is the one in the past who we talked to outside of the cathedral when we first left

  • Arthur touches thing to teleport and looks around and sees Sorin looks disheveled and glaring (looks mean) with his heart beating in his hand (Future Sorin), he’s not actually there when Niamh and Gek look

  • We all leave

  • Arthur is chill when he comes through the portal, he can feel his heart

  • Irulan here woop woop

  • Enormous white dragon has black cancer through it’s entire body like it was before- seems to be contained, dragon alive, Irulan says- the crystals Liang Bai they have natural healing properties, The younger dragon is pure and clean from the black cancer, he’s besties with us (yay), baby dragon is called Pearl
