A New Adventure

I have arrived to a dinner party held in a manor. I am here to answer the call for adventurers and there are alot of people here answering the call as well.
There is a heavily armored , dark clad aasimar staring blankly at the throne in the front of the room
I sit at the back across from a aasimar warrior draped in finery. After a short conversation my new friend, Cher, decides we should stick together. There is a rowdy halfling next to us who introduces herself as Linzi. She is looking to write a book about what we are going to do. Cher grabs my hand a drags me to another table where we sit next to a broody dwarf. Kind of a Debbie Downer but it makes sense since he's a follower of Groetus, the God of the End times. His name is Harrim. There is also a barbarian nearby named Benedict, whose home was burned down by bandits.
The guards call for quiet and a elegant half elf woman walks out followed by a human noble. She is Lady Aldori, an elite duelist. We are adventuring to the Stolen Lands.
Later that night, from our guest rooms in the manor, we are all awoken by an attack. Assassins are attacking everyone trying to stop our adventure. After taking care of the group in the guest wing we need to hurry to Lady Aldori and assist her. Right before we head that was Tartutio, the gnome, offers my new friend Cher a ring, saying it will keep her safe. How nice.
We move to the great hall were a battle between assassins and guards is happening when suddenly two ice giants barge and and with an ice blast kill all of them. They smash through the next wall in the courtyard but we can't follow because rubble is blocking the way now. We are going to have to go the long way. We take care of some more assassins in the next room and continue down the hallway. We come upon to bodies cut in half and notice a iron key next to one. Tartutio grabs it and says it opens the armory. He wants us to take a chest that he thinks is full of gold but Linzi tells him no. I mean, priorities. Cher and Ikory don't even follow us into the Armory they just keep going down the hallway to get to Lady Aldori ASAP. After grabbing some armor we follow. Cher and Ikory make it to the courtyard before us where there is more fighting happening. I dash to catch up with them and we take care of the assassins in the courtyard along with Keston, the Guard Captain.
The only way to lady Aldori, who is in the Banquet Hall, is through a burning hallway. Ikory and Cher barge through while the rest of us douse ourselves in water and quickly follow. We make it pass burning debris and rescue some guards with a fighter named Valerie.
When we get to the banquet hall we see Aldori trapped in a magical dome fighting off the two ice giants by herself. Aldori is able to kill the two giants while we take care of the casters and assassins.
After gathering the survivors Aldori knows that there is a spy among us but not who it is. Tartutio is quick to accuse Cher, but the rest of us are quick to defend her. Aldori assigns Tartutio and Cher as the leads of two different adveture groups and sends us on our missions. Our next stop, The Trading Post.
