Session 8 notes

Francis ate his story fruit:
Leocadil have been watching our caravan
The assassin is undead and most likely magical in nature
There is a ruined castle, in one of the rooms is a hooded figure speaking to someone of a vague height and a ginger-ended beard through the same mirror as Lomvani and the Queen has. Something comes out, it has 3 delicate and manicured hands adorned with 3 identical sapphire rings on the index, middle and ring fingers.
 
Encha might know something but our caravan’s members may be against us.
 
Seek out the Chengichar, power-don of the pirate city of P’hycoi
 
Then the investigation party arrive.
The captain is a dwarf. A former wanderer, grizzled and older man, settled down into his role.
 
Everyone sassing this dwarvern man.
 
So um yeah we got arrested. We’re kept in custody until we’re proven innocent.
Their system of court seems very easily manipulatable but we get GGG’s magical messages if we want them.
 
We had a close call with one of the guards after Levi sends a message to Daddy Dearest.
 
GGG comes down so we can send a message. Levi contacts someone but he may not be of immediate help. Francis contacts that bandit captain we met on the road, he can arrange for us to meet the Chengichar. Nickton sends a message, they don’t get a reply.
 
GGG can get us out. But we would be practically admitting to murder. Because of this, we decide to stay.
 
Francis: “IS YOUR FATHER THE KING OF BURHOLST?!”
Levi: “For now”.
 
It comes to our court day. There’s about 600/700 people here to act as the jury. Zone of truth is cast on us. 3 supposed eye witnesses saw us throw Lombani out of the window.
 
1. Villiger Jeff- seems like as he speaks, what he is saying he believes he saw.
2. Mercenary Matthew- the exact same case
3. Magic Merchant Mike- it’s similar again oh god oh fuck
 
Magistrate comes up to the stand, he has red eyes, that must mean he’s evil! He’s has necromantic aura emanating from him, each of the witnesses has the aura of enchantment around him.
WE DISPEL VILLIGER JEFF FROM HIS ENCHANTMENT
Our magistrate notices we cast this spell and calls back our Jeff back to the stand. He finally says it’s a load of shit and tells the jury that the other jury members are a load of shit.
 
Ta’rupka describes the events as we witnessed them.
WE WERE PROVEN INNOCENT- and now there’s a bunch of Lombani’s employers who want supposed “justice”. They are let by an angry bald neanderthal whom Francis challenges to a duel in which we cheese with ability checks. Despite this, Francis STILL GOES UNCONSCIOUS. We get him up and his opponent is held until the guard captain can tear him a new ass.
 
Our magister is one Scolia Cinneigre. He “dabbles in a bit of everything”. He tells of the Chengichar’s gambling den in Phycoi.
 
We return to find the newly branded tavern and tell Geirson about the bandit leader we met along the road. We get a free drink and soup.
