The Troubled Vale - Day 15
General Summary
The adventure begins with the heroes receiving gifts from the king:
Alistair: A companion-sword, it can fly and attack enemies on its own. HOWEVER, Alistair will take damage the sword takes. Amethyst: A cape of protection Lizzy: Staff of Fate, It gives a recipient a D4 to boost a roll. Soren: A size-changing ring and a +2 multitool Thistle: A variety of tiny, specialized arrows (and rocket-arrows from Soren) Thorne: Ring of Shooting Stars, it can cast various spells and creating ball lightning
The heroes venture to the Vale, it's almost uneventful. They are at first exploring, wherein Thorne gathers some treasure from an underwater chest. It's perhaps the first time the party has found REAL loot. They sense the ghosts around them, though have no direct contact with them. Each in the party hears singing, voices in their minds, but it's only there just at the edge of consciousness.
Further up hill they discover some ruins. Alistair and Thistle have a vision upon touching bones, this used to be a massive, sprawling civilization with magic and technology beyond imagining. Flying machines, enchanted machines, and more. It was incredible. Until a cataclysm. An explosion from the Citadel that rocked the valley, obliterating the civilization overnight.
After the vision, the heroes are confronted with another problem: monsters. More specifically, wolves. This is immediately distressing to Alistair. As the fight progresses, many wolves fall. Soren manages to use his speaking with animals to convince the wolves (with great effort) that they're not a threat. The wolves, and many other creatures of the woods are fighting the ghosts. They want to purge the land of the old civilization's evil.
