The 8th of Refrum, 1390 of the Storm Era, Ravenstone Tower in Astaria
The party begins to question Falstaff concerning the recent events. The party is encouraged to take a rest and get cleaned up. They are going to bathe and clean and rest up.
While they are resting Milo hears a knocking at the door and there is no one there, but there is a letter waiting for him. Milo goes back inside and opens the letter and reads its contents.
Acolyte Milo Greenbottle,
You are hereby summoned to the Grand Chamber of the Ravenstone Tower to stand before the Inner Circle. You may bring your companions, as their presence is permitted. When you are ready, follow the path of lights that will appear outside your door. They will guide you to the summit.
May wisdom guide your steps.
- Arch Magos Solivane Aetheris
Milo goes and gathers his companions and follows the lights up the staircase. The party enters the room and the ritual begins.
Solivane Aetheris the Arch Magos, Magos Liraeth Al’Tharin, Mangos Daelin Sav’Duskin and Falstaff are all waiting for them. They all take a moment to introduce each other and their separate wings of the League.
They have Milo swear an oath to the League. Afterwards they have Milo bring his amulet (The one given by Falstaff in the Fire Temple of Ava) Falstaff mutters an incantation and it glows slightly.
Milo takes the Oath of Twilight:
"I swear by the light of dawn and the shadows of dusk,
To uphold the balance between the seen and unseen.
I shall guard the secrets of this world and walk the path of twilight,
Where darkness meets light, and chaos meets order.
I shall be a shield to the innocent, a guide to the lost,
And a flame in the face of encroaching night.
By my will and my wisdom, I pledge my life to the League of Twilight."
Falstaff recommends that Milo be assigned to the Shadowveil. Milo accepts a position in the League of Twilight in the Shadowveil.
After the ritual the party goes to the Emberhearth and shares a meal. They discuss how they can get the Air Rue Stone back from The Grand Artificer. The party decides to go and get an audience with Falstaff.
The party goes on their separate paths:
Vex - Goes to get rest.
Dink - Goes to work on Kobo and get rest
Ghesh - Wants to Wander Around and resupply.
Milo - Will go to the Library.
Moloch - Will go train and rest.
Galad - Will rest.
Milo goes to the Library and attempts to learn the spell Silvery Barbs and succeeds in copying the spell in record time, destroying the scroll. Milo finds out that the Castle in the Sky was spotted by sailors out at sea just before a storm. He goes to bed.

The party goes and gets breakfast before they head out. The go to the Emberhearth and eat. The meet with Falstaff afterwards and he teleports them to the Grand Hall of the Astarian King and Queen.
They are announced into the throne room, Falstaff has to correct the Herald and have him introduce the party correctly. The Herald announces Empress Taliah and Lord High Marshall Xalathas, Tahlia takes a moment to thank the party for their help. The Herald then announces the Kings of the Elven Realms, King Athenduil and King Galathil. Then the Dwarven Thane Stonehand and the Ork Warchief Grummish.
The King introduces his High Pillars.
The meeting begins with a discussion about what has been going on with the advancing construct army. They talk about what can be done about it. Dink proposes they use the storms to destroy the Construct Army. The conversation quickly turns to the Rue Stone and Foe Stones and their impacts. Eventually the King says they need someone to retrieve the final two Rue Stones. In the meantime they will hold off the Construct Army as best as they can.
When the meeting ends the party is approached by the Lord Protector who tells them he has made a ship ready for them to use in searching for the Rue Stones. A Messenger comes in at the last and the party overhears him tell the King that the Construct Army has begun to attack Keldon.
The party goes to the Royal Harbor and finds a ship and Captain there. The ship is the Starseeker.
