Shadow Session 6
Necrowar Mysteries
General Summary
22nd of Early Hollow, 1758
The party makes an offer with the Macho Goblin to traverse peacefully by handing them their food. From there, the Macho Goblin headed off.
On arrival to the town of Normington, the party heard rumors of an old Necromantic War era fortress nearby. The town was built there earlier but the haunted nature behind it caused the locals to move elsewhere. The party thought about stowing on a Glenbrook Trading Company but they figured a SNO ship from Surrive would be optimal.
Heading there, the party found Mockery reflecting about his time in the mists. It was at the Kaldrama Fortress that he and his friends came out from Divinterre. He also mentioned that if they wanted to see this haunted place in action, they would have to be here at night to see it.
What they witnessed were the ghosts of Coalition members fleeing to the fortress for safety. The Arkonian Order, led by Count Constantine, bursted through and slaughtered all of the nonbelievers. From there, the Overseer left behind got impatient and sought alternative means to prove himself and return to the frontlines. By making a dark deal, the Overseer acquired a staff made of rotten wood. The Arkonians under him stopped him and destroyed the staff to prevent the area from plunging into further darkness.
Kasner would eventually find the remains of the staff in two. By taking it down deeper into the fortress, the party finds a Black Gateway. Kasner then reformed the staff that begged and pleaded to be repaired. Vassaryn, curious, communed with the staff wondering what it was about for a bit. Carcass was nearly sacrificed to the Black Gateway by Brontelot had Rahas not pulled the unmoving tabaxi out of there.
24th of Early Hollow, 1758
You can see the coastline as you get closer to the town. A few ships come and go. Many of which wave a blue and white flag with a yellow crest in the center. That same banner waves atop a massive flag poll behind the town walls.
A smaller wagon flanked by Valencian guards rushes through the town gates. A few arrows protrude from the side of barrels and crates. The outside guards are quick to close it back as they go through.
Though this time, these Valencian guards wear porcelain masks and their skin is a deep charcoal black. What eyes you can see are creamy white.
The party arrives at Surrive, as Carcass itches to stow away and head to Prageria. Rahas cannot wait to sabotage SNO business in general.
