12/7/21 - Session 39

by Sous Lamorak

Mei spills the beans:
* "It all started 4 years ago posted by the Northlook Inn in Bryn Chander..."
* Rime begin 2 years ago and then her guard duty was moved to the Town Hall
* Doesn’t know why the sacrifices started but she was tasked with enforcing them
* Her boss, Mynera McGonnigaul, told the guards to look for anyone with magical abilities and would pay for tips or turning them in
* Instead of turning people in, she only turned in trinkets for ale money
* She was about to sell the Chwingas to the tower since they weren’t people
 
* Chosen Wan believes Mei and convinces us to give her a second chance
* Mummy Dearest is now our pet babysitter
* Lohengrin’s owl flew near Bryn Chander and was exploded by a white light that now hangs over that city
 
We leave for Bryn Chander to investigate the strange white light
* Along the way, Lohengrin remembers that he found his friend Curly’s hat in the Durigar cave so he messages him and receives a partial reply of “Help!”
* Lohengrin tells everyone that his teacher, Mynera McGonnigaul, was selling her magical students to someone
* Sous asks Mei if she knows who her old boss would be selling her students to? (She doesn’t know.)
* Mei reveals that Bryn Chander students were tracked and Cloak detects divination magic on Lohengrin’s little toe and cuts through a small black line that was put there
* Lohengrin uses the sending stones to warn Chosen Town that we might have been tracked there
* Before we can reach Bryn Chander, we run into a party of Orcs from the Many Arrows Tribe
* Cloak stops us from fighting them because he knows this tribe. He rescued one from their tribe named Wuglat long ago.
* They don’t seem to recognize Cloak so Swagger helps translate into Orc for him
* Sous helps save the party by giving the Orcs a barrel of fish jerky
 
* The skies over Bryn Chander are covered in an intensely bright light that only seems to shine within the city walls
* The blight light doesn’t seem to cover the tower
* Mei helps us sneak into Bryn Chander through a secret entrance in the South West gate with a key she wears around her neck
* We leave our wagon with Mei’s old guard coworker, Abbie Horan, a human female guard
* Abbie punches Mei because, well, she’s Mei
 
Abbie recommends some ways for us to sneak anywhere near the Wizard Tower or Southern part of town:
* 1) stagger ourselves instead of leaving in a group
* 2) or Abbie escorts some of us to the Town Hall
* Everyone decides to just disguise themselves and be as inconspicuous as we can
 
* Weird Changes: Town Hall has stopped sacrificing people and the city gates are handing out religious pamphlets to Amaunator, the legalistic deity that Cloak and Titanius were coerced into following. The market place is also sparse.
 
We split into an intimidation party and a covert party to get through town.
* Titanius and Sous intimidate the hell out of this town! Nobody’s messin’!
* The rest of the party keeps their cool and notices a halfling stalking the group. Chosen stalks him back and makes sure he doesn’t get away.
 
We make it to the Northlook Inn successfully
* Scramsax helps us all keep our cover and get to the back rooms
* Chosen manhandles the halfling, Clovis Longfoot, and takes him to the stables
* Scramsax tells some of us that the church of Amaunator has become very popular as of late and that they are the ones who stopped the sacrifices. Supposedly, the god will keep the warming light over Bryn Chander as long as nobody is killed in the city.
* There is a black spot over the Wizard Tower and people suspect that it’s because McGonnigaul is still killing
* Many in the town have become zealots to Amaunator and are convinced it will lead to an end to The Rime
* The Cakey Bakey closed because the goblins went missing too
 
We go out to interrogate Clovis the halfling
* Titanius fails to intimidate him
* Sous fails to intimidate him
* Chosen sees through his lies which truly angers Sous
* Sous picks him up and gives him one last chance to fess up but Clovis still lies, infuriating Sous.
* Sous is about to kill him when Scramsax comes out and stabs the halfling himself.
 
As Scramsax leaves, he says to himself, “Maybe it’s time I come out of retirement…”
