Session 10: Ballad of Tom Petty
The group approaches Amphail in the early afternoon. Silas casts Detect Magic, and there doesn’t appear to be anything for it to ping on. Everyone looks malnourished. The town looks like it was hit by some sort of raiding party, but there is not evidence of major damage. The group is met in the center of town by a group of wary villagers. There are also a couple of knights and a well dressed officer that approach the group. Silas performs to introduce the group while Tizoc announces that we killed a bunch of demons. The officer wants to know how we got to the town, through the barrier. Misvari and Silas perform the tale of our heroic deeds. The officer sends the guards away and then pulls out a hidden bottle of rare drink. He tells the story of how a few weeks back a group of goblins and hobgoblins came through town, ransacking the area. After that, no one could leave town and no supplies came in. There was one goblin, who had a crown and only had one hand. Silas finally remembers about a one-handed cultist. He was responsible for the cultist losing his hand and stole his spell book. He has then mentioned that he forgot where he hid it. The officer gives us a writ to call in a favor from any guild in Waterdeep and collaborate our story. Silas mentions that he has a curse that he needs help from someone specific….which Amara is really upset about and trying to get the group to go to a specific temple. In the northern portion of the Sword Mountains, there is supposedly a temple (it is about 2-3 days from where we are in Amphail). The group upgrades to a wagon and two draft horses and then heads out to the unknown temple in the Sword Mountains. There are a lot of alarms along the road and there is a temple on the right hand side of the road in the distance. As the group continues on, a deep voice asks “Can I help you?” A large furbolg steps out from behind a tree (Detalosi). The Faith Temple is up north, avoid the cave entrance. 100ft south of the cave entrance there is a gentle incline that will allow the group to take the horses to the temple. The runes on Stormclimber have gone away. There is a stone with writing, that says “One leap of faith”. The skull can’t go in. If Silas wants to go in, the skull has to stay outside. Silas gives the skull to Misvari and then jumps off the cliff. Tizoc jumps after him. Morrigan follows the two of them. They all hit the ground and there is no movement. The rocks fall on top of their bodies. Few minutes pass and Tizoc’s head sticks out of the ground, floating in mid-air. Silas and Misvari takes damage and can’t move very well due to the rune an skull being on them. She hides the rune in the wagon with the skull. There is a ring of fire in the center of the room that surrounds a statue. On the dias “Piety is the irrevocable ward against fear” in celestial. There is 3 doors one to the east with a Tree above it, one to the south with a sword and shield, and one on the west with a bed. Silas enters this one and his world is turned upside down and he takes some falling damage. The group works together to get everyone in the room safely. There is a set of stairs going down and a rope bridge with a red crystal in the middle of it. It looks like a red triangular prism. Silas threw the crystal in the hot springs, and nothing changed. He then goes to rescue it and takes damage. There is a spindle and dial with colors. Amara changes the dial from red to blue, while Morrigan runs across the bridge and becomes a pin cushion. Until next week.
