BEGIN SESSION
 
Druss and Max head off to a forge/workshop, Rogair's Hammer. Melfine, Marda and I hit a bookshop on the way to securing travel means to Charring's domain. (INV - 22 - I find an old leather-bound copy of Hitchhiker's Guide to Dragon Island, and I Built a Gun and So Can You! - I could theoretically make a gun now. I'm thinking something like a blunderbuss that I load with silverware.) We head to the mail service and ascend to where the wyverns are stabled. Getting out of the elevator, we go to the help desk and secure passage for the team. Marda pays up and we have to sign an enormous liability waiver. We depart at sundown on an overnight trip to Charring's domain. The total trip is about a day and a half, each way.
 
Harrison is guesting for a few sessions. He is playing our pilot, Petunia Luneshade, an elderly half-elf woman (crazy cat lady type). The wyvern is Eggbert, or Egg.
 
We need to get everyone back pretty quickly, so we use the magic carpet. Taking a corner hard, Melfine spots Yun but I slowly slide from my position, only to be saved by Marda skewering the carpet and keeping me onboard. We gather everyone but Druss, who is going to have to meet us there, and head back to the wyverns. Sylvio can't use the carpet, so I will ride him there under the effects of Haste.
 
We board the barge which is situated behind the wyvern. Petunia rides on Egg but the rest of us are on the barge. I sit atop Sylvio, who is dug in and secure. I release my hair from the braids so that it can blow in the wind, plastering whoever is behind me with stray grease and oil. I am reading the HGtDI (INT - 18 - gain 1d4 on next survival check). I stay up reading as long as I can. (PER - 12 - a peryton, no 2, then more, are on the attack. They are dawn perytons) Combat ensues, and they die, almost exclusively on top of Druss.
 
We're just passed dawn, about 1/2 day into the journey.
