Fixing the time machine
Full breakdown of this session coming soon.
After using their jetpacks to pull Tolvig aboard, he gives them his broken machine - an item that's been in his possession for over thirty years. Zangrim finds this easy to repair with Jimmy's large black Tarkeltool, and spends the downtime integrating this device into the TARKELoop.
Tolvig also shows off his newly found spyglass, a tool which formely belonged to Zulynn Heartwind, and gives Tolvig access to his long missing diving abilities.
Klearic Calms Keoland
By using magical suggestion, Klearic calms down Kraddok Stonemender, who agrees to wait for two days while the party handle the Wendigo. He asks that they hurry their surrender and make it back soon with the head. They agree, and promptly take the head of Eyrsicthon out of the citadel before splitting up.
Time of Tolvig
Tolvig, James, Klearic, and Vencyne make way to the Malevolent Wastes where the party interferes with the past and does its best to lead the Undertaker - a lich version of Krag - to defeat the Gravebound, before meeting multiple versions of themselves, stealing another time machine, and heading into the past to get the Lance of Light.
Deerly Departed
The others - Mabel, Zangrim, Zararuk, and Eyrs - have a long and bloody battle with the Wendigo. Zararuk dies in combat, his head partially eaten by the beast. Eyrs' eyes stung with tears, as she pumped the monster's body with glass shards. Mabel prevented this, listening carefully to the last words of Vilnathari who willed his wish potion to Eyrs, leaving her with a big decision to make.
