Session 70: Season 3 Premiere
General Summary
4th Proviso
After finishing speaking to Elirith (Xue) and Dhaer, Liv attempts to Locate Xue. The spell leads her to the gates of N'umo'ner, with the feeling drawing her below. The strongest pull that they can reach is by the gates, but feeling like Xue is below ground and still some distance between her and Xue. Only druids are known to have access to N'umo'ner; as the city's food source, it's closely guarded and under the control of Councilmember Vineguard.Haven
In Haven, Rel and Liv go to see Otho. Rel asks about why Madam Shatay sent her to Otho; Otho said that she knew Rel would be hunter and sent her to Otho to keep Rel safe. They discuss Elirith and that we believe her to be under N'umo'ner somewhere. Otho is only aware of hte druid tunnels there; N'umo'ner was shaped by magic, whereas the Underdark tunners were shaped by nature. They counsel to be careful when poking around the only food supply for the city as it is heavily protected. Otho notes that Elirith has proven her loyalty and friendship, particularly when helping rescue Mesh. They will do their own digging while Rel and Liv are in the Underdark. Otho also advises to be careful in the Underdark and do as Dhaer says; it's more volatile than when they were last down there. (While the girls are chatting to Otho, Robyn teaches Penny the Bastion equivalent of twinkle twinkle little star on the lute).4th and 5th Proviso
Smithing District
Robyn goes to visit Hamish but he's not home when she would expect him to be with a normal working day. She heads down to the Craghammer levels in the Smithing District and finds a dwarf shutting up for the day; he says that Hamish is "moving up, well, down! in the world" two levels down. In the workshop two levels down, a very old dwarf answers the knock on the door and reluctantly fetches Hamish. Hamish has been working to the bone on something important and is enjoying the work, even with the long hours. Robyn can't see what's being worked on; she asks if its more warforged but Hamish says its not that. He says to keep stopping and when he's free they'll catch up; Robyn tells him she'll be out for a while but will check in when she's back.Academy
Liv goes to visit mother Things have been best for a while Episodes are becoming less frequent, she’s becoming calm Nurse feels its strange Last episode was 2 weeks ago Normally they’re every few days She’s been very quiet, which is troubling She’s been friendly and engaged, just been quiet Gives painting to give to her mother Liv’s mother comes up and gives her a warm hug, says nothing but embraces her warmly Liv gives her painting of flowers, beaming smile but tears going down, still saying nothing Never known her not speak but it was a good time spent with her. Asks about learning more medicine - free clinic, or Academy, head healer can put in word to teach her but would need approval first. Goes to visit Tiberius to talk about Storm god A friend of Saman’s is a friend of mine. Asks for info about elemental gods Tiberius - that kind of info is not stored by the city’s archive Slides a piece of paper and quill over Tiberius talks about how to look for medicine Writes down: God of Storms God of Water Gods in general Just curious Adds Medicine after Tiberius makes a show of her asking about medicine for the purposes of covering her questions (as gods are not a permitted topic).The Garden District
Rel goes to visit Madam Chatte at the Subtle Smile Gloriously beautiful house, softly glowing oil lamps on the walls, soft pink lanterns outside Goes to speak in private and reveals who she is It was the least she could do for Tomas He tried to save a great many people and was betrayed by the city Rel asked if she knew her father well Perhaps a conversation for somewhere less populated, but she did know him well (but not in that way) - somewhere with less walls, her home perhaps Sam said she he Chatte presumed her mother to be dead Her hands are frail even though her appearance shows her as well put together, her hands maybe betray her age Rel said she owes a life debt, Chatte said she owes nothing, just to come back in one piece6th Provisio
Dhaer returns and meets us in Haven House Carlaith - the house we’re trying to avoid House Deygoth - deeper in the underdark House Palen - close neighbor to Carlaith and ruling member of the Imperium Carlatih has seemingly recently cut ties with Palen Not openly hostile but hostile defending their territory Palen want Carlaith back under their control Matriarch of House Palen The Night Mother needs to be brought to justice in Palen’s eyes Dhaer has been watching them for some time Only seen NM once Completing a ritual on a high ranking member of the council Unmistakable dress Council member cast into the water and swallowed by a worm like creature Followed a tunnel that looks like it could have been a worm Palen Imperium hampered by incursions Warden of the Deep, Matriarch of House Palen, has been dealing with incursions from a large goblin clan Not just goblins; goblins in allegiance with aberrations, normally sent to guard the corridors to houses, Balhannoths, traditionally captured by drow and put in corridors to protect houses, but these seem to be under the goblins will. Can’t pinpoint the name of other aberrations, large, tripedal, armed with dangerous looking tentacles. Dhaer and Rel want to see the night Mother deposed violent Can we trust that this house will help the faithful In helping the house we’re gaining an ally against a common enemy Otho wants the Night Mother dealt with House Deygoth have gone quiet around a similar time; not had the manpower to send any scouts to send what has happened because of the incursions. If we can help with the incursions, we can gain the trust and faith of House Palen and against House Carlaith - but not all out war Not hostile to Dhaer’s upbringing (House Carlaith) and talents Happy to use skills and info he’s provided Robyn visited Stormwalkers before leaving; they’re not back yet, Quinn says they would be taking care and delayed for a reason, not to worry. Rel visited Mesh, asked if she wanted to go with them, but she said Liv and Rel were plenty, no need to put more Diplomats on it.
