Session 147: Cursed Confessions

General Summary

21st Sydenstar 836PD   The Unbroken successfully thin down the shadowy assassins to corner and capture the last one in the backroom of the Verack household. As they question and investigate the lone assassin, they discover that cursed blade they carry is magically brainwashing them. Simeon removes the curse, and the lone Blade’s memories and voice comes back to him.   His name is Alaric, he and the other assassins were all researchers at the Cobalt Reserve, and were ‘gifted’ the blades to research by a mysterious benefactor, Lord Treacy. Alaric remembers being held at the Titan’s Rest, a tavern, for a couple of days in the last week he’s been under the Blade’s curse.   Before the Unbroken begin to probe into the tavern as the next clue, they visit the Cobalt Reserve in hope to reunite the Sentient Jewelled Key to the Ebon Codex. However, the Depository Master of the Reserve’s secret vaults requires time to persuade the Guardian Spirits of the vault to permit entry to the Unbroken.
