Codicils. The Reserchening Part 2.

by Shyrene Windheart

While others did their codicils, Geode and I sent a sending to the Shepherdess and received a message back that she was unconscious and had been stabbed in the back. She needed our help, so Geode prepared more spells and we summoned Dovar into a Magic Circle and zone of truth. He appeared and was annoyed to have been summoned. He confessed to stabbing and poisoning the Shepherdess and admitted to having the antidote on his person.
 
I killed him.
 
We then sent a sending to the Third and got them to find the antidote and cure the Shepherdess and then made our way to town to speak with the diviner of the Ten who scried the Shepherdess in her room, awake.
 
Being far more comfortable in the situation, I went out to do my next codicil. 27 days later I re-emerged from the woods, successful.
 
The airship was was delayed by storms and arrived at the same time as the Shepherdess' party and the mayhem ensued in Salvation's Landing. Our airship arrived along with our interns. I had a long talk with the Shepherdess, letting her know everything about Dovar and the Yuan Ti. She urged me to stop the plane's destruction.
 
Mule and Geode earthsung the crystal skull into a stone block to protect it and us from detection. It had begun to effect Geode, and could no longer be trusted out in the open.
