Session Two
Khepri The Undying sleeps really late, 4 very sore people awake and enter the kitchen where Caldr Nársen has made skerries breakfast. Khepri doesnt know their names but has already started to rebuild her hareem; Ghar'lia, Indira, Radha and Kareem.
Dante Abis shows off his edgelord ways. Tiaset sleepily floats into the room while sleep hungering until Caldr leeds her to a chair ish, she does not wake up. eventually Khepri wakes up and comes down for lunch.
the hareem tells them over breakfast about the haunting of the castle and relunctantly says the history of ayda sending people to recover the castle but none have suceeded. Caldr uses his keeper of the graves to locate the two corpses in the basement who died over 50 years ago and the three corpses burried outside the castle as previous atempted owners. one noble and two retainers, the noble died first.
the hareem are encouraged to stay in their own homes while the pantheon heads to the oasis states.
they head to the oasis states village and pause to sleep in an patch of desert. Caldr creates a dome of ice and uses a miracle to make it last forever. Khepri is amazed and loves it asking where Caldr has been all her life.
a small village has sprung up around there with a bountiful havest, shockingly so for the middle of the rough desert. Some of the trees are growing golden apples, made from actual gold and some of the bushes have small silver flowers.
there is a shard at the centre of the oasis, if the godbound remove it violently they will gain 4 dominon but will destroy the shard in the process. alternatively they can remove the shard and place it for a new perpose attached to a word of their wish chosen from wealth, health, sea or fertility.
they arrive at the village and recognise the shard for what it is, kepri and tiaset stride into the village for the shard and are challenged. typical kepri says she wants the shard, Sidqi leaves the large tent and threatens Tiaset. calls her the witch and calls her on her backstory with Mahu. Also recognises Kepri and calls her pathetic.
Tiaset moves to stab him but Caldir steps in and mitigates the damage. Angry Tia goes to kill him again but Kepri holds her back. Omar calls her a pathetic cur and a looser, Kepri knocks him unconcious and calls him a worm. Tia kills him and Caldir angrily chides her for it.
As if on que (it was), the militia of Mendes who were trained by Nephthet and an eldrich twisted mage from Mesnet arrive to protect the shard.
Caldr freazes the eldritch mage after a prolonged and damaging fight. The villagers militia is quickly defeated as the small mob they are while the veteran troops take a long time. They focus very specifically on Khepri who they once trained with.
Caldir uses a mircle to bring Sidqi back from the dead, but only for as long as he is nearby. Tiaset swoops to the shard and is entraped by it and is then challenged by the party for murdering Sidqi. Caldir especially is hurt by it. Khepri considerd her lying about her reasons to be a small betrayal.
Dante is accussed of being a kidnapper of children when finding a child in the tent he hid in. The mother takes the child and Dante talks his way out of it.
the party shares their desires for the future and caldir shares his first smile. its very very wholesome. dm nearly cries.
the party decides not to give the shard to the hyena village, they asked for food, not a shard of heaven. caldir suggests taking it but on the requirement that they take the villagers with them. dante extracts a promise from caldir that if the hyena people rise up he will help put them down.
Khepri speaks to the people to convince them to come with them to the town of oathes, Hikima (sexy librarian lady) tells the people to pack and they gladly follow. My Lady Khepri, lead us into the light.
Dante receives a threatening letter: Dantes Letter
