Session 1: Crashing into Old Times

General Summary

Jumping through a portal within the Spire you land laying down in what you recognize to be the Auraspace’s training area for Field Operators. Nex, Nix, and Khunbish as you look around you notice that both Wraith and Aleesia Lolliston are missing. Two noticeable dust piles are on the ground where you guess they would have landed.

• Shari Shadowhand, Farir Meikham, and Aarush Yimiras approach you. They look younger however and don’t show any signs of recognizing you. After confirming that both Wraith and Aleesia Lolliston are alive you go somewhere private for a talk.

The date is Sariel 14th, 1094, making it over 93 years in the past to when you entered the third spire on Jeda 26th, 1187. A time where the land is currently dealing with 13 Spires. The Auraspace Company is spearheading the race to deal with the remaining 12 Spires being the only group to energy and survive one.

• Upon learning you came from a Spire in the future Shari Shadowhand eagerly invites you to join the Field Operators.
• Nix decides to leave the group to work in the Innovation Unit instead while the rest of your group goes exploring the world.

To make up for Nix’s departure, Farir Meikham suggests you go through compatibility testing with the company. Doing this both secures your place as a Field Operators but also gains you a fourth member to with travel while you regain your bearings in the world.
With Stolas as you’re newest member, the group leaves on Sariel 19th.

• The first stop in getting reacquainted with the world is to find the Tsog tribe to ensure Khunbish’s grandmother, Tishya Shukla, is alive and well.
• To aid in this Shari Shadowhand gives the group a letter vouching for your trustworthiness as recent attacks on the Wandering Tribes in Cebaria have made them wary of outsiders.

Winter slows travel however, 45 days later making it Amsiel 1st the group finally finds the Tsog tribe.

• Upon questioning where is Tishya, you learn that she’d gone missing during a raid a couple of months ago her body was never found. The tribe holds out that they will find her as a few who’d gone missing as well were found wandering months later. Their memory scrambled to what had occurred during those months.

Volunteering to help the Tribe’s warriors in their search for Tishya the group sets out. After several days of searching, you find an encampment with members of the Gihza tribe.

• Wraith hoping to sneak through the camp to gain information is spotted by a man with pale skin, brown eyes, and straight blond hair undercut.
• A fight breaks out and during it Khunbish identifies Tishya to be fighting among them. This Tishya however turns out to be a Simulacrum.
• The battle ends with most of the warriors killed but two men escape with a woman, identified as Tishya, bound over the blond-hair man’s shoulder. Interrogating a Gihza tribe warrior the group learns that Tishya has been given to Nirbhay for unknown reasons.

Frustrated and disappointed, the group rejoins the Tsog tribe warriors to report the news to the tribe.

• With the help of Chief Soham Saxena none of the individuals who returned to the tribe were Simulacrum. Yet both individuals have Transmutation and Abjuration magic within them and register as both human and aberration.
