The Notorious Session 21: Anastashia and Trixie and the Missing Limb
General Summary
As Vera landed at the bottom of the shaft she started noticing the vibrations in the ground were stronger here then above when they started to fight the zorbo. She however noticed something very beautiful. There was a underground lake that is connected to Lake Azion in a way. There was lilly pads with various structures built upon them. She focused on the lake and enjoyed the glimpses of fairies that flew in and out of their homes. The party noticed the slack of the rope became very loose and Allen went down after Vera. He also enjoyed the sights of the lake and also dropped the slack of the rope. The others debated about going down and determined that Sullivan would go next. As he was going down two golden glitter orbs flew up the shaft and danced around Sullivan, Solstice, and Wincen. One of these orbs landed on Solstice hand and materialized as anastashia. She spoke to Solstice in Sylvan. She said that her sister Trixie and her where going to head to the surface before noticing them. Solstice told both the fairies that she was injured and her party is going down the shaft. anastashia cast fly on Solstice.
Solstice started flying around the mine shaft and even picked up Sullivan. She then flew down the shaft and dropped him into the underground lake. Wincen had fly cast on him by Trixie. He flew down and helped investigate the rest of the cavern. Here he noticed huge clockwork worm like creatures boring into the cavern. He started to talk to one of the Gnome / Kobold miners. The miners didn't even bother to chat they proceeded to work and called to the front of the clockwork creature and he noticed the machine open up and drop off spoils. Wincen proceeded to head back to the newly made camp that Vera and Allen set up. Solstice joyfully flew around the cavern and landed in time for the fly spell to give way. Allen was curious about the clockwork creatures.
Allen went over to the clockwork creatures and looked around to see if any spoils have been left behind. He found a few things and then proceeded to travel inside the open hatch. As he entered the hatch closed behind him. Sullivan headed over to the clockwork creatures as Allen didn't return back. The rest of the party chatting and taking quick naps didn't notice the two leaving. Sullivan called for Allen. Allen heard Sullivan but Sullivan couldn't hear his shouts for help in return. So Sullivan went to the front of the clockwork creature and found a control pannel. He activated a switch and the the hatch started opening again. Allen didn't stay in the loading area of the clockwork creature. When the switch was activated the clockwork creatures insides started to shit causing a very deadly situation for Allen. He was able to get out of the clockwork creature however lost his limb in the process. He screemed in pain and Sullivan and Vera came running to him. They quickly patched up his leg the best they could and brought him to the camp. The party started to put some Azion Clay on their wounds with the aid of the faries. The party then had a well-needed rest and took-watch over Allen to make sure his leg didn't kill him.
