Session 106: We're your mummy issues

General Summary

• Liv goes to the hospital wing
• Greeted by young half-elven orderly (Belevin) - new at the academy, doesn't know who Liv's mother is
• Alieshia Ballard - not on any of the wards
• One of the sisters comes to the rescue; Been quieter, somewhat of a regression to where she was before, just been eating/drinking and staring at the walls
• No reaction when Liv gets there
• Liv uses Sending and has conversation:

Use sending: I really miss you and hope you'll be okay one day Response: I'm proud of you livanya, though my body may not react how I want it I appreciate your visits
Do you know why this is happening I do not know why I know he reached out the same way he did to you, but I wasn't strong enough, my mind wasn't strong enough
I've been guided towards helping. He was betrayed, they call him the betrayer but he was the one betrayed
Betrayed by who, is there anything else he's told you Betrayed by the scholar the soul anchor is not a beacon of defense it thrives on death and suffering
I'll be going west soon think it'll be to get and resolve this, I think that means you'll be released, I hope so I'm broken livanya, my body and mind, the tether between the two is tenuous, there's only one release from these and I don't want that to happen any time soon

• As Liv gets up she feels a tug to her hand
• Back in Haven Liv talks about what she's learned - and with Otho
• Maybe shadows know and that's what they're engineering death for
• Did you know any of that soul anchor evil, scholar being a dick - definitely fills in some blanks
• History is written by those who are left standing - their version is the one that is passed down I am very old, older than you know You will find out more when you go west Plenty springs to mind but you know my philosophy That special rod peni found, is it important, will we need it On its own, no I believe that your friend penitence knows there's something out west as well With any luck a piece may be found Pulls rod out of their robes I have seen some of what of peni has seen Though I am wary of why he had this knowledge and where it is coming from I so not doubt his heart Puts the rod back If another piece is found bring it back to me then we'll talk about what it actually means Is it yours? no It belongs to the person who's temple is out west There's a chance that some things in history can be put right before it's completed
• Go safely, look out for each other as you have been doing The more powerful you and penitence grow, the more a beacon you are There are worst things that rythera in this world

• Tiberius/archive is still closed Know that he doesn't sleep there See late one evening figure shuffling through soul plaza, hood up, books on hand Few people around Fairly well guarded area, some Warforged, less and less as days go by Warforged being called back to wherever they're stored Finds Tiberius I do have some things on medicine in the archive I believe on 40th has a day off from duties
• Scrying on Saman doesn't work

• Sending to Hamish
• Checking in. Are you okay? If you don't want us to message just say "okay" and we'll leave you be.
• Doesn't get a response so much as a feeling of a noise - psychic damage, white noise as they see this message
• Something pushed back - painfully
• Go to Hamish's flat; trapped in centre (Liv dispelled)
• Wand points to hole in the wall - also trapped and takes Robyn out
• Liv says for Robyn not to go back to these flats alone

Previous: Session 103-5: It’s like a Show. Show me What?

Next: Session 107: Here are all the lies we prepared

33rd-36th Proviso

• Liv goes to visit her mother at the hospital (Alieshia Ballard) and uses Sending to have a conversation.
• Alieshia claims that Ogrim was betrayed by the Scholar. The Soul Anchor is not a beacon of defense; it thrives on death and suffering.
• Liv and Otho discuss history and travelling West; the Temple is not of Ogrim but of the person who the rod belongs to.
• Warning: the more powerful Liv and Penitence grow, the more a beacon you are. There are worse things than Ry'thera in this world.
• Try Sending to Hamish again; get painful static in return.
• Visit his flat again, magical trap in the centre (dispelled) and additionally trapped in the hole in the wall.
