Session 12

During the skyship journey to Ashreave, Dewey successfully copies Earthbind into his spellbook.
 
As we descend into Ashreave, the air feels richer but heavier. Night is starting to fall, so we find a tavern near the landing dock. We get rooms 3-5, but Dewey swaps 5 for 8 because Dewey and NoVA will be fine with the supposed sunlight coming through the window. During the night, Dewey dreams of stars burning.
 
In the morning, we head down to a storage barn. Whistle sets up a telepathic bond with Dewey and Saffron, Dewey goes invisible, and Dewey and Whistle sneak into the barn together, which seems to be a general storage spot for the whole town. Dewey crowbars a box open to find golaberries, which are native to this town and grow on trees rather than bushes. They have a slightly golden hue and are strawberry sized, and are known in historical texts as a good base for revitalising medicines (IS THIS THE BASE FOR SECOND COMING???). In another box, Whistle finds pieces of tree bark which doesn't look local. In a third box, there are vials, and in a fourth box that doesn't fully open, Whistle pulls out a cloth that reacts with his Villaire rock and causes Whistle's hand to disappear? Whistle and Dewey sneak back out of the barn, Dewey taking samples of the bark and berries.
