Session 22: All roads lead to Eldoria

by Asharene Shadowthorn

Spite, the little girl approaches us and tells us she helped by putting her imaginary friends in some dolls inside. We learn that her Imaginary friends are actually demons. And they seem to listen to her? WTF?
 
She tells us that we brought back some with us and she sent them back to the Abyss. Franz asks if we can see her "friends" and she grabs his hands, and he sees many demons around surrounded by a hellscape of fire.
 
We ask her if they know anything about the demons that have been coming out people's chests, and they simply say that it sounds like something that could happen, but don't know much.
 
She says they listen to her because she's their friend.
 
We ask her if she would like to travel with us. We go with her to ask her mom, Auntie Ezartha. Franz asks Ezartha out with Blackwood and they both accept for drinks. Franz is super charming which seems to make Blackwood wants to leave. HOwever he keeps them both around with his Riz. Franz has a real good time though.
 
Joe and Ashe hang out with Remish and the group and Ashe's parents. JOe asks Spite about Isolde, causing Spite to completely go silent and freeze up. She grabs Joe's hand and now Joe is completely surrounded by demons, and they all start to change Isolde's name, saying she will rule from the North of Rimstone Reach to the South of Rmston Reach. She will consume the heart of larue and take her horn and grind it into dust.
 
We decide to wait until morning to tell Franz about Isolde.
 
We drink, have fun and have a good time. The next day we get permission to take Spite with us.
 
We check out Ithilhithnal and want to investigate any possible connection between the duregare down in hammerfall and the druids here since they were pretending to worship Selune.
 
We go see the sites and museums and have a great time. We find that there is a ship in a museum and Franz recognizes it to be his old ship? How did it get here?
 
Fred the dog goes on an adventure to try and find Duergar, but he didn't find any. JOe did manage to have some plants help them get their own pirate ship.
 
It turns out yo be Franz's original hat. Joe trades it to Franz for the one he is wearing. This trip is really wild.
 
The DM decides that Elias's mom is going to travel with us.
 
We decide to go have dinner in Hammerfell. We decide to take Dinklewing back to Hammerfell to see Joe's parents one last time.
 
We see plumes of smoke to the south of Rimstone Reach. Several days away, so they have to be REALLY large smoke plumes. We decide we can go check that out after we visit hammerfell since we have to go that way any way.
 
We get to Hammerfall, and Joe's parents have "Congratulations" signs. It turns out they are Congratulating Joe for finally getting out of Rimstone Reach.
 
Joe has people in the south of Rimstone Reach. (Possibly where we saw the smoke plumes?) Joe tells them that if we find out what happens with the gold their father will get a seat on the council, so we are going to do that for them.
 
Her family gives Joe some heirlooms to help them on our journey. It's a good time, and we head out the next day. WE head towards the smoke plumes.
 
After some investigation, we find that the fires were started on purpose. It started at multiple places simultaneous. We determine that someone completely encapsulated in fire could have done this?
 
We see Elias's father approach us. He knows someone down in the Abyss who is a fire being that may know what happened. He was a caged up fellow. Spite is able to get some intel, and there is a fellow named Redstone who may know about this. Nobody has ever heard of this guy, but he's imprisoned in the Abyss. He is trapped by Tiamat.
 
Spite says she can take us to the Abyss kind of by holding our hands and we can talk to Redstone. We agree to do this to see if we can learn some information.
 
Franz approaches him and says "nice to meet you". He seems super suspicious of all of us. He thinks we are demons tricking him, but Ashe gives him some spring water, and he agrees to answer our questions.
 
Joe tells him about what's going on up top about the points of combustion and ask how it happened. He tells us he needs to see this in order to give us any information.
 
Franz breaks Redstone out of the cage he is in. WE also realize that maybe we could've just broken Elias's father out the whole time instead of him making a deal to get him out. We decide not to share this information with him.
 
Spite transports us back, and Redstone is now with us. We are at one of the combustion points. We learn that the fire was created with magic. It is a magical fire. There is something unique about this fire. The burns around here seem to be from the plane of fire, but whatever spewed out from the forest on each side is not from the plane of fire. It's a magical fire.
 
It is possible a dragon did this, but if it was a dragon, it would be an ancient dragon. However, the portal that would have been created, could not allowed a dragon to fit though, BUT a dragon could spew fire out of the portal.
 
Franz knows that about 100 years ago, a dragon came through this land and burn this land. All the forests, through the mountains and everything. This area was all fairly new growth. This dragon was known as "The Living Flame" (aka Cinosaicin) A group of adventurers partnered up with a silver dragon named Arendille that was able to nullify this dragon at that time.
 
We determine that Aurendille is Schrodinger's Aurendille. He is both dead and alive until observed. hahahaha
 
This Redston fellow once drank the fire of Mistpholese and it permanently damaged him, because NOBODY is immune to this fire.
 
We decide that studying up on this event form the past in Eldoria might give us some information about what is going on. We decide to go to Eldoria. We try to invite Redstone alone with us, but try to set some ground rules. He agrees to them. He won't burn shit down unless we all agree to it first.
 
We also learn that Remish knows this guy. He encountered him years ago when he first drank that fire potion that killed him.
 
Remis and Franz have a heart to heart, and they truce it up, and Remish says he'll back off Blackwood.
 
We head to Eldoria. AS we get there, Poor Dinklewing crash lands due to exhaustion and is in pieces. Lucien is going to handle it
 
As we arrive to Eldoria we find that there is a festival going on. It's about midnight and people are dancing and wearing masks.
 
They are celebrating "The rebirth of the Mother" (It's kind of like their new year)
 
We are going into Year of the Monkey here. Leaving year of that rat. WE party it up and eat like kings. Blackwood is happy to be home, as is Franz.
 
We end about to enjoy the rest of the festival, but want to wait for every
