Session Fourteen

by Radiance Tiller

OH BABY WE'RE BACK
 
Probably just a short one for now but BOY it's good to dust off the Radiance dice
 
Travelling w. companions during the day, find a lot less trouble on the road HOORAY.
Sorin is quiet, intelligent. Meepo is entranced by Korin.
 
Reach a river crossing. Meepo has never seen running water before in his life.
 
After a few days we see a distant twisted tree standing alone in the expanse of the grasslands. Seems to have been struck by lightning a few times. Doesn't seem otherwise remarkable.
Terrain is becoming less flat and more rocky as we progress.
 
Ten days in, as we head to dusk, spot a STONE CIRCLE a lil ways away.
Very old Druidic magic site. A few ancient scratchings for the moon, the sun, the wind, the earth - general Nature shit.
A number of symbols that seem to be invoking some of these natural effects.
Cast Entangle in the middle of the circle - put some Druid magic in there. Don't really notice anything.
Set up camp a little way away.
During my watch, it begins to rain.
Fuck it, let's go have a lil look at the circle, just in case.
Fuck it let's go step into the middle of the fuckin thing.
Rolled a Natural 1. That's .... probably fine right? Yeah that's f ine. I'm sure that's fine, right? Right. Of course it's fine. It's fine?
PERCENTILE DICE ROLL 52
The rain above me is not hitting me - there's some kind of invisible barrier?? The rain isn't hitting me?? It's following me, tethered to me.
Ah PANTS it's not still there after like a minute.
That was weird.
Write about it in my Book, reflecting on what happened. Reminded of a book I read once that spoke of the wild divine magic of nature itself, that in certain places seems to surge; unexpected minor effects happen.
 
FINALLY eventually we get to the Big Lake.
Heckin Wimdy day. Big waves on the water. In the distance, can see a large town.
Go into the town, much busier. Bustling. Lots of people.
I Disguise Self, Meepo stealths along behind me.
Stock up on some supplies, some waterproofing for my scrolls, and have a look for an Identify Pearl...
A lovely down-on-her-luck beachcomber has found one apparently. I'm gonna make her fuckin' day.
Take her to a Bank. Set up her kids' college fund.
 
Gonna camp outside the city but we'll do that later.
