Play On Words

by Ejike Ugwu

What we know
 
The Corrids and the Briganocks found out that the others worked for Eindilene
We kinda killed Eindilene
 
Overarching
We need to find the Unicorn Horn to release Zabeleenah to stop the timelock from the "Palace of Heart's Desire"
 
Eindinene can't be killed unless there's an Eclipse of some kind.
 
We need to reunite the troop with their shadows
 
Burly's brother, we rescued. And Gleam we rescued, Glister's sister. They cannot leave until reunited with their Shadows.
 
The traders were hanging out of the first Hags
 
Aimdoor can return us to the Palace if we can unite the Troop
 
Elkhorn and his traveling companion were looking for the League of Malevolence . Chasing across the multiverse, they got frozen in the palace. Elkhorn was unfrozen and tortured by the 2nd Hag. He didn't crack.
Molaver has been hanging out with the Briganoks.
 
************************************************************************************
 
We travel back to the Motherhorn and meet the skeleton marionette, Break a Leg.
 
There's an invisible parchment that she used to write to her sister Scabbatha.
 
Alya stealths ahead and discovers their no Sun prop. Alya asks if the Goblin people can make a Sun prop and they get to work on that
 
**
The parchment reads partially:
Every morn when Skabatha rises,
The one first seen by her waking eyeses
Is swiftly forgotten like some fleeting swain
And shan’t be remembered ’til she sleeps again.
**
This was a paper that Eindelyn made about her sister. For some reason.
 
Then, we wander around and head upstairs, couple of traps gets us some damage. Alya gets tossed down to the 2nd level, but is otherwise fine.
We find Eindelyns room, filled with Marrionettes that start screaming INTRUDER, a chest, a warddrobe, and a cat seat, and a mirror. The name "Bandersnatch" would take us back to the place.
 
EJ finds his missing item, a Straw Doll, Richard! Pipi's body is in there too, but we won't find out about that later.
 
We go downstairs and see one of the things
And Petra deciphered the rest of it
 
We run into a Darkling turning Goblins into wooden masks. Alya said that they violated OSHA rules and Petra agreed. Violet asked what lever did, which we tested on him after a bit of a tussle.
 
3 other Darklings came in too, whom we dispatched 2 of and the last 1 ran away after casting darkness on us.
 
We head to the other room to catch some shadows and free them from their imprisonment, but we don't know how to unite them to their owners. Alya leaves to see if there are any other Goblins that are missing Shadows and...
 
That's where we end this session.
