Session 80: When Last We Met 5/5/24
General Summary
When last we met, the party had arrived back to their home after being away 4 months. Walking throug the door they are met with a bit of hostility from A new steel defender built by their house guest Caoimhe. He calls off the construct and brings everyone inside. And the party are Finally able to offload their burdens and catch up with old friends, they take an evening to relax and reaquaint themselves with the country they'd been away from for so long. They start by unloading the mass of wealth the collected in that time period. Dividing up most and storing the rest in their cellar.
From there, they take in a lunch provided by their steward, Vasil. They read their mail, which consists of correspondences from Ukko, Dainarv, Rebecca Thorn (With ill tidings of their inn) and from Sebastian who says that the Star of Carcosa has been seen and that they must speak at once. After that They catch Vasil and Caoimhe up on their progress in Volgot and learning that he is no longer a wanted fugitive, Caoimhe offers to keep his part of the bargain and infuse a magical item for each member of the party (They figure out what they would like outside of game). From there, they take their rest back in their beds after so long.
While the party sleeps, Mistral communes with his patron to replace the genie vessel he destroyed. The efreeti appears and proceeds to chastise Mistral for his irresponsibility and the two reconcile over a batch of Dream Flake Mushrooms which causes them to trip balls for the remainder of the night. Nohj then proceeds to finally create a new ring for Mistral's genie vessel and passes it off to him before returning to the elemental plane of Fire.
The following day, the party makes for their town of Ailec and finds it coming along, albeit slowly. They meet Drozza, the giant goliath they met at sea who was partaking in the slave trade. He informs the party that many people are coming in and building homesteads. Gerard the chef has arrived and has started collecting livestock for the town's personal use. Ignacio, Drozza's partner in crime, has started establishing himself as the town blacksmith. Upon talking to him however, he seems to be short of supplies. Mistral writes him a slip of paper granting him access to Mistrals riches to buy the supplies he needs. Excitedly, he rushes off to see to this matter at once.
From there, the party rides for Tirasa. Arriving just after nightfall, they catch their "Friend" Dainarv closing up for the evening. He allows the party entrance with the promise of nice items to sell off. They proceed to conduct their business after hours. Selling off their acquired items and makeing off with some new items of their own and a tidy profit. Mistral warns Dainarv of the Order of the perpetual shroud and they take their leave of him. From there, they wander down the narrow streets and find themselves back at the Abraxios Academy. It is quiet as night is upon them. But they search about and find Sebastian reading in the library. He has an anxious look about him and he rushes the party out to the Ladies' brand tavern to discuss things.
And that's where we'll pick up next time!
