Relic hunters 16: meeting the father

General Summary

After trying to look into Zero his soul. He fell into a deep and unexplained sleep, the party left him for now. Sulyvahn Came looking for his daughter Eris and was pointed to the hospita, where Eris was right now. As he walked in, Eris quickly hid behind Leo who stood in a corner. With Leo's size they just managed to avoid Eris being found. After Sulyvahn and his henchmen left the room again the party asked Eris what that was about and after Eris talked with the party about it, they decided to go talk to her father anyway since they wouldn't be able to avoid him forever. Sulyvahn made a bit of smalltalk but mainly reprimanded and insulted Eris for getting lost fully like that and taking months extra to get here. He also doubted and dismissed the rest of the party, saying Eris shouldn't accociate with them. He also asked where Alden was, he also insisted she would join him for dinner in the town at the house he had in town. When Sulyvahn went back to his house, Deckie followed them to know where he lived. After confirming the house, he also went to try and look for Alden. However soldiers from Sulyvahn found him first and urged him to stay at a house, kind of like a hostage. In the evening during the dinner, Eris attended on her own and was force to listen to her father talk. Meanwhile the rest of the party was close by outside the house. Sulyvahn mainly gaslit and said to Eris she should stop accociating with the rest of the party and focus on her work as a firekeeper. Deckie with a boost from Thorn went into Alden's room and hid in the closet there after Alden felt the hostage shouldn't escape for Eris her safety. After dinner Sulyvahn insisted Eris stayed in the house as well. However Alden, Deckie and Eris talked through the walls. And with that Deckie decided to escape with Alden after Eris insisted so. The party decided they would try hiding him in fairy mart. They managed to convince the fey there for them to stay there for the night. The next morning when the party came to check on him, he wouldn't wake up. And after a detect magic from Leo they found he was missing his soul. Again through the detect magic, Leo was able to follow a trail of the soul by focussing intensely. The group managed to follow it, leading them out of town and into the mountain. The trail went into a small crevasse into a mountain. There the party found a cave, as well as the caved in entrance of some man-made strucuture. Leo recognized it as a older and clearly forgotten elven crypt. Using some deductive skills, Eris also managed to find and catch up to the party. In the cave the party explored a bit, trying to find a alternative entrance to the caves, instead they found a secret entrance leading to the shrine above.
the session lasted 1 days and ended in the middle of the day on the 12th of draca 532.
