Session 1: Intersecting Fates (ˈseʃᵊn ˈwʌn | ˌɪntəˈsektɪŋ ˈef)

General Summary

"We begin in the early hours of the on Aldauya, the second day of the week, in a messy room on the first floor of the Wandering Satyr. A weary man in a long, tattered cloak slowly wakens from far-too-short sleep to a rumbling stomach, blinking awake to see his taller companion snore on the other bed."

— The Dungeon Master

Last we left off, our slowly-coalescing group had found their fates and stories slowly begin to intertwine in the city of Ostford, at the edge of the Darethian Empire in the region of the Cyren Basin of Central Palo, the massive region bisected by the Spine of the World. There, we have Belial and Silvermoon, who had been travelling together eastward, meeting in the tavern of this city, the Wandering Satyr, with Deimos, Ehlo, and Galadriël, the former two of which had met just a day prior, the latter of which joined the group in drinking.

After some money lost, some money gained, copious amounts of silver, a few bottles of wine, and a drunken encounter with a Dragonborn, our band of misfits was about to leave the tavern when a thundering explosion wracked the front of the inn and set it ablaze, killing the Dragonborn bouncer. With some quick thinking, Ehlo summoned rain above the burning inn, possibly preventing a further blaze that could’ve been disastrous for the city. Yet, they were still implicated in this matter: being practically the only ones in the tavern at the time of the strike. And so, they were sentenced to house arrest until the investigation was complete: they were not to leave the city. Yet, through some well-placed words, they managed to talk themselves into assisting in the investigation — which meant, in practice, taking charge of it and seeing it through.

Promised a substantial reward should they complete it by the Lawmaster of the town, they headed inside and followed the few tracks they found within, which led them into the storage of the inn, and then the cellar. Sneaking down the staircase, Belial and Ehlo found themselves face-to-face with a group of Sea Elves wielding short swords and bows — one taking aim at the newly-discovered Ehlo. And that is where we left off.
