Return to Apepsos

by André Pelnar

14th

  • Someone has stolen the diadem, the scepter, and the sword from the Imperial Mausoleum in Apepso

  • Note to self: get the Peptid Teleportation Circle Sigil Sequence

  • We teleport to Apepso, I get lucky and we end up in the circle anyway. The wizard there is peeved and wants us to pay the toll.

  • We offer our assistance in the matter to the paladins, who are trying to look strong after having just been robbed.

  • The witnesses to whomever broke into the Mausoleum are all dust. The two guards of the late emperor being the two known dusty corpses. I investigate and determine they were magically disintegrated.

  • Before leaving, I notice a circle the same size as the stone rings on the throne room in mysteria, I suspect it's a small teleportation circle, due to it's sigils. I copy these sigils into the back of my spellbook.

  • I try to teleport using the sigils I wrote. A bulbous eye appears over us, and we hear the words "ever watching" in our brain, sending a chill down our spine. We find ourselves in a field of gray.

  • I forget what pomegranates are. I begin to trance to so that I can get us back to the Mortal Plane. However, I lose my ability to spellcast and speak before I can begin to trance. (Feeble Mind)

  • While infeebled, Faolan calls out for our favourite Aeillan immortal annoyance, Nikophorous and makes a deal to get him 43 souls in exchange for him bringing us out of the this place. The three of us appear in a hellish flash of light in the Apepsos library. Faolan tries to remember the word for restoration spell, but just starts yelling "spell" while I continue to lay in the fetal position, foaming slightly.

  • Foalan begins to head off after Hesior as he looks for the Mausoleum.

  • One of Anwyns compatriot's heals us. Faolan chews out me for not thinking ahead before teleporting us.

  • Tymnaros' eyes are upon us. (the bulbous eye)

  • The Investigation
  • Foalan remembers Hadrian was an oathbreaker paladin and there was a spellcaster with him when we first encountered him

  • Olympios Platon Stefanidis is a common thread of Riven and Hadrian. He is in Nikea.

  • Because André was incapable of signing the contract to Nicky, Foalan is now low-key the healthcare proxy for me when dealing with Demons?
