Session 24: Departures & Dread

"We're here to enact heroism!"

General Summary

Aered‘s news from Jarrow was troubling. General Irador was at the Front, Esper Sherman had been reassigned outside the city, and Jinn’s mysterious contact had had unforeseen repercussions. The group determined the quickest way to return to the city would be to head for Iriswood University and request teleportation services.
In the days that followed Micah awoke from a strange dream. Jinn and Bart shared knowing looks as their companion described the moment Charles Gilbratore received Cordyceps. Frank conversations were had regarding the nature of the sword and what transpired with Sakesu Windrider in the Feywild.
Nearly a week later, Chari spotted a netherspark, likely a by-product of the Shadowfell portal, moving with purpose through the underbrush. At the same time, Bart spotted a familiar figure watching Chari from amongst the trees, just as had happened a few weeks previously on the journey to Lost Prince Lake. Weighing their options, and concerned about the potential destruction it might cause, the group fell upon the netherspark. In the midst of battle Calla rushed to Chari’s side. Unclear of the huldra’s intentions, Jinn quickly dispatched the fey as the monk looked on in horror.
As the party regrouped it became increasingly clear that Chari, upset by Jinn’s actions, had fled. Realizing this, Jinn left to retrieve her. Eventually comprehending the finality of their friends’ departure, Micah and Sir Bartleby broke camp and continued on towards Iriswood University.
The pair soon came to Pontill, a picturesque town at the bottom of a small valley. The townsfolk, while friendly enough, were unwilling to go out after dark. Everyone they spoke to seemed on edge. After passing a night filled with strange sounds and mysterious entities one thing was certain: the people of Pontill needed rescuing.
