Session 1 summary

My brother, Tharian, has reprimanded me again about my standards not aligning with his military standards. I still don't see why we have to be this uptight. He talked about our people having seen blue creatures that might be from the herd. I've been sent out, together with the dragonborn-tabaxi girl to go figure out what is happening in the forest and if the herd has anything to do with this. One of the dragonborn generals gave me a map with information. At least I'll get to spend some time in the forest again.
 
Me and dragonborn-tabaxi went to the forest. The forest seems to be ever changing, some paths are suddenly overgrown, new clearings, some still remain the same. We're confused, she asks me what is happening and how we can allow this to happen. I told her that nature does what it wants and that we shouldn't intervene. She didn't seem to like that, shrinking in on herself.

At a clearing, we see deers. They're not like our usual deers, instead they're blue and glowing. The sky above them is thunderous, purple and blue. We can see a druid pathfinder interact with one of the deer, petting it. Maybe they're in on this after all, as my brother had said. I don't want to believe it, with of his usual sayings, but now it is right in front of me. The dragonborn-tabaxi wants to aim at the druid, pulling up her bow. I can barely stop her, pushing her bow away before being pushed into the deer myself. The antlers hit my armor.

I am thrown between what is and what isn't. I can see angels falling and turning into demons. The city being built stone by stone. Marching in the street. Marching until there is nothing left to march on. Imagery of relgion and militia. An angel who cries blood, a dragonborn who does the same. A sword coming down. Purpose?
 
I woke up to my brother and the Sha’vren. My brother was there as well, standing over my body. She said she wanted to find help, and brought him instead. He talks to me about betrayal, that I reek of it, and of magic. My actions having been against order. My head hurts from what I've seen. He tells me to go after the druid, bring her skull. He leaves me behind. I ask Sha’vren where the druid pathfinder went.

Sha’vren is concerned about following me, that the betrayal might follow her as well and she'll get banished. I tell Sha’vren to go after my brother, return to camp. It is what best for her. After looking around, seeing that the deers are gone and the forest is calmed, but still changing. I start to make my way to where they took the druid. I don't know if I'll be able to do this, but I can't stay here.
 
I had time to think about the ordeal, as much as my head would allow to. The druids always have been peaceful, at the other side of the forest. The few visitors being calm and collected despite the stratocracy that plagues my home, seeing them as an enemy to their order. I can't bring the head of an innocent druid in the name of *that*. I'll have to find a reason for these blue deer, complete my initial mission rather than this bloodthirst.
