Session: Sept. 25th, 2023

by Eirlyssia Tsurovitchna

I thought I was used to expecting the unexpected when it came to this group, but it feels like every day there's something else to prove me wrong. The last thing I had heard Saanes say was that Sevette was there to kidnap him. So I, of course, grabbed Rayen and fast travelled upstairs to intercept them. But when I got there, Saanes said their family was in trouble, and Sevette was NOT the cause of it. That in fact, they had to work together, and I could not, under any circumstances, tell Lyree about it. Last I'd heard, Sevette was working with the Cult, or at least being held accountable for his crimes, but there he was, hands outstretched in peace, looking kind of sheepish. It was...confusing.
 
So I let them go. Watched them pop into space, and was left standing there awkwardly with Rayen. I'll be honest, I'm glad he's not the prying kind. I was afraid he was going to ask a lot of questions I wasn't going to be able to answer, but we went back without too much fuss. I even asked Lyree if she thought Sevette was trustworthy, and she said he was. Even knowing he was part of the Cult, she said that was just a silly phase that children go through. So I guess I have to leave it at that.
 
It sounds like Zun got a little bit of dirt on the Taria situation while pretending to be a worker there. How no one managed to find a giant minotaur suspicious is beyond me. But he confirmed that Taria had gone missing the same night that Elegant went missing, and that for a while, the servants had actually wondered if Elegant was the one to do it. Doesn't sound like anyone suspected Ny'ell.
 
Elegant also turned up some interesting info in his talk with Count Payten and Cor'nan. Count Payten flat out said that Malzod had come to him to offer information up about Taria's murder in exchange for information on the constant whereabouts of Mud and Zun when they showed up. Which we know is an agreement that he made with Courmivoun. Sounds like Count Payten turned him down though, and told him to go to the authorities, which Malzod promptly did. So in some ways, it's kind of Count Payten's fault that Ny'ell just got arrested. Also means we have more reason to kill Malzod now. He really needs to stop messing with the lives of my friends.
 
Count Payten also said that Elegant and Cor'nan are to be questioned by the city guards tomorrow, in what sounds like a Zone of Truth situation. That should actually be fine for Elegant, since he has no memory of that night, and Cor'nan wasn't even around then. What I think would be more interesting though, would be to see if there was someone at the guard house who had modify memory, to see if we could get Elegant's memories back. I want to know what happened that night. But even more, I want to know how Ahzek got us, and what we did in service to Ahzek. There's an entire portion of memory that's just missing, and I am not okay with that. If we can get those memories under the guise of giving the guards more evidence in their case, I think we should take it.
 
Only other thing of note was that Mud offered to kill Rayen for me, if he stabs us in the back, which was honestly kind of sweet. I've never had siblings before, but Mud very much feels like a brother sometimes...getting on my case about stuff, vetting the boys I like, watching my back...it's different. But I think I could get used to it.
