Carry on my Wayward Children

by Violet Raine

We race away from the Loomlurch and get the sense that we are being followed. Cradlefall the dragon attacks us and Violet almost kills it. We try to unlock the mystery of the portal but we are unable. Petra releases the mushroom guy back to his family in the mushroom circle. We run into an old centaur that tells us the children will be safer with the treant or in the pool. I think he tells us there is a unicorn there. We head toward the magic pool and find out that it has some kind of magic that keeps teleporting us back to where we started 1000 ft from it. So we cant get there. We go back to the balloon and tell it to meet us at the treant. We walk the kids to the treant and meet Will of the Feywilds. He is super excited that we rescued kids. We notice he has a displacer beast baby. EJ puts the mirror ball out and the beast baby gets excited and acts like it remembers it. We explain that we know its mother and that she is looking for him. He agrees that we should take the baby back to its mom, if we can rescue the other kids from Loomlurch. We agree that is a good plan. We ask how to get the teleportation portals to work and he doesnt know. He gives a signed wanted poster to Alya. He says that Squirt knows how to get to Yonder, you have to act like a unicorn to get close to the pool and to light the basin to call the unicorn, and that Nib might know. He has a cave down south. We return the portrait to Bavlorna and feel a great weight lift. Violet attempts to spy on her and she is caught. We leave and go back to Thither. We go to Nib and he explains that he is cursed and must make items from his gold to make up for his ill deeds. He makes Violet a cloak of protection. She feels the need to uncurse him and to get him back to Waterdeep to properly help people. We head over to the pools and act like unicorns and gain entrance. Violet acts like a unicorn for a little too long and whinnies at the actual unicorn. The unicorn tells us that her mate had his horn stolen to imprison Belina. So that is the key to getting her out. Turns out that Belina is the one in the painting that Violet has. Her mate has disappeared and we want to find him. An assassin jumps from the shadows and attacks the unicorn, she teleports away and the assassin attempts to leave, but we cant let him leave with the secrets that protect this area. Petra explodes him.
