Session: May 29, 2023

by Eirlyssia Tsurovitchna

The day started off normally. A little taunting of Cor'nan, checking out our accommodations, watching the ship take off...all enjoyable things. I also have to say, the food on this ship so far has been delightful. It's so nice to have a chef on board that clearly cares about his craft. We are very lucky indeed.
 
The roc "attack" was an unwelcome surprise, but one that was easily dealt with. The only thing that lingers in my mind after that - the roc seemed genetically modified. Something along the lines of Aed, though not quite. That in and of itself is concerning, but even more concerning is the niggling thought someone may have sent it after us. We still don't know what Malzod is up to, since Mud wasn't feeling up to scrying on him when we left. It's possible that one of our enemies, someone connected in this complex weave of Nar'canus, wanted to stop us before we got too far. That's just a hypothesis. I could be very wrong, and I sincerely hope I am, but I can't get rid of that feeling. Time will tell, I suppose. I just know that our enemies are tracking us, and that doesn't sit well with me.
 
Dan'or'avil is one I know must be tracking us because I RECEIVED A NOTE FROM HIM STATING THAT CHAEDOVE IS ALIVE AND THE VORES'THEYRA ARE HIDING HER. My heart hasn't stopped pounding since I found it in my room when we all retired to our quarters. At first I was panicking that he meant to send it to me specifically, which would have a whole host of implications, but at least that thought I could lay to rest. Most logically it was delivered by an automaton to the closest room of someone from our group. That just happened to be me. From what I know of Dan'or'avil, if he knew I was on board, he wouldn't be leaving me wondering if he knew. He would be toying with us blatantly. Technically speaking, it could have been sent from someone else. It was just signed "D". But we don't know any other "D" names that would have any knowledge of the Vores'theyra.
 
But this still begs the question - why the note? Why let us know this? Is it just another one of his lies, like the crystal rods? Is it his way of trying to divide us from one of the strongest supports that we have? I hate to admit it, but it's working. We tried to scry on Chaedove and it got blocked as opposed to not going through. That means she IS alive. We also know that Garrin told us the Vores'theyra had something blocking communication in up for now. It's an assumption, but it's a safely based assumption that implies they've got her just like the note said. It also said they were close to executing her and decided against it for some reason and are now holding her.
 
Chaedove is alive. I can't believe it. I always wanted to think she was alive, but they showed us her body. It looked so awful. It broke my heart. So to be told that my closest friend from the group is still alive...I can't let that slide. I have to find out. I have always felt like the Vores'theyra wasn't telling us everything, and I don't want to let Dan'or'avil be the one that drives a wedge there, but...if they are holding Chaedove hostage...so help them all. I don't know what to do now. I don't want to just turn the entire ship around. We've got a schedule to keep, and important things to do going forward. But I also cannot, in good conscience, leave Chaedove with those that would essentially be her captors. I want to send a message to Garrin. I want to scream at him, demand he release Chaedove. I know it's not wise. I know my party would likely be very angry if I did that. But I need to know. I need to hear her voice. I need to know why.
 
I need to know why every single person on these Gods-forsaken continents we try to trust betrays us eventually.
