And the Witch said “Have fun storming the castle.” Report

General Summary

Hilda and the Gang plot out the mission. She will go blow some shit up to draw away military focus while the party goes to the castle that has its first floor open as a museum. Then Hilda and Megan will meet the Gang outside the base to get their ship.    The party sneaks into the museum and scouts things out and fucks about.

• Vance (Mr. Underhill) asks the tour guide about the dungeon. They plan a "private tour" after the museum closes.
• Daelan carves his name into a statue of King Benedict the Benevolent.
• Insinoori enters the throne room and finds a photo of the last king and Governor Long being old friends.
• Daelen, Jeff, and Vance head into the courtyard and see a giant's sword stuck in the pond. Daelen fails to pull it out of the ground.
• The party sneak up stairs. On the 3rd floor they come across some halflings guarding a door. They decide to be escorted off the property instead of fight them.

Vance buys booze. They return after the museum closes. Vance is lead to the dungeon while the others sneak in behind him. Vance and Vannar head toward a solitary cell where Vance shoves the halflings head into the drug bag, knocking him out. Vance manacles the halfling in the cell and leaves.   There was nothing in the dungeon.   Party heads back up to the 3rd floor. Daelen uses Minor Illusion to shatter glass. One guard enters that room while the party quickly kills the other guard Paul. Jeff impersonates William confusing the other guard as he enters the hallway. They knock him out and open the door.   Inside is Vix. She is shaken and confused. She asks about Skirka.    Vix refuses to leave without retrieving the artifact she came here for. They enter Ir'ell's study. He is surrounded by guards. He assumes Vance is the leader and asks for his name. Vance responds with "Mr. Ridley." Ir'ell gives Vance a choice- put shackles on "Ephraim" (Vix) and the party gets to leave with the artifact. Otherwise Ir'ell will have them all killed. Vix tells "kindly" old Sir Randall to close his eyes and casts Color Spray, teleports to the artifact and runs towards the door. Ir'ell pulls out a mirror shard and stabs her. Roll Intiative.   The party focuses on trying to flee the castle. Some laughter, grenades, spells and good ole melee violence later the party is out of the study, Vix has the artifact, "kind" Sir Randall had his eyes plucked out while stuck in a cloud of daggers, and Ir'ell's mirror dagger can do some cool shit.
