Session 27: The Staff and Sword
General Summary
Finnegan is looking for information about Hags and the Feywild after traveling rough Aachen he comes to 2 downed trees that are blocking the road. There are a few dead people and one injured person there.
Magnar sees a person coming from the North while both Arne and Magnar are treating Archi who got stabbed. Magnar approaches the character who responds by hiding and running away. Arne still busy helping Archi.
The creature turns up at the horses and starts waving at the group. Magnar sees the person being 9 feet tall and big. Arne after finishing helping Archi decides to change into the creature and learns the name of the creature (Finnegan). Manger approaches the creature at which point the creature shrinks to about 6 feet.
After a small introduction and chat Finnegan being a Firbolg joins the party after being invited by Magnar.
After Archi wakes up the group travels about an hour
At some point Archi gets shot at by an arrow which narrowly misses his leg and gets stuck into the leather of the horse strap. Just not penetrating the leather thus not hurting the horse.
Arne summons a Shadow Mastiff and sets it free to hunt the shooter of the arrow. It appears to be a female dwarf with name of Mamae. After coming across the party, Mamae shoots an arrow at Archi who gets wounded by her. After which she gets attacked by the Shadow Mastiff.
The shadow mastiff grabs her by the arm while biting her and drags her towards the party.
After which it becomes clear that she was hunting some deer that crossed the road earlier. After paying Archi 1 gold, she joined the party and followed behind towards the cottage they where going to.
They find a rock imbued with magic giving off a green glow.
Magnar approaches the rock and pokes it with his sword. But he gets zapped by the stone which makes him drop down his sword. When Archi approaches the rock it will get more cracks releasing a green glow.
Arne prepares the camp and while sleeping a dark figure emerges. The figure goes to sleep in the building close to where the group setup camp. Tucks into his cloak and starts to sleep.
The next morning Archi animates 2 corpses, at which point those 2 corpses break trough their tombstone waking up the party and the dark figure. Arne and Finnegan destroy the 2 skeletons, after which Arne prepares breakfast and Finnegan goes back to sleep.
Archi feels attracted to the stone and when he approaches the stone it calls out to him that there is a gift waiting for him which will help his coven. Archi touches the stone and the stone slowly melts until only a staff is left which is almost 2 feet tall and gives off a green glow from the top which snakes along the staff from the bottom to the top.
At which point the soup is done and Arne wakes the group and hands out soup and tells Archi to give a bowl of soup to the cloaked stranger. After some time the cloaked stranger gives the empty bowl back to the skeleton who brings it back to Arne.
Mangar walks up to the stranger and shakes his hand. His hand is very warm almost feels burning, the stranger speaks towards Magnar, which Arne understand (but Magnar doesn't). The stranger said "You're next" to Magnar in Infernal. After a bit of doubt it becomes clear that it is not meant offensive or threatening and can be understood as Magnar being the next person to find the thing the group is looking for.
At which point Magnar finds a big heavy sword.
The sword contains some heavenly writing and after Magnar gets the sword, the cloaked figures figure starts to warp a bit and some red wings show up, and some horns, and a tail.
The sword contains the text that states as The Sword of Mic-Al-El.
At this time the cloaked individual changes into a devilish creature and tries to command Magnar to come forward & Archi to drop the staff.
Fighting back the adventurers enter combat with most buffing up Magnar while Finnegan & Mamae fire spells & arrows in. They eventually defeat the creature who states "At last." and then finishes.
