Session 50: Mountains & Manticores

"When life hands you lemons, make limoncello"

General Summary

After an extended afternoon of drinking, harassing students, and deep conversation with Sir Bartleby, Jinn woke up to an excruciating hangover in the University guest house. The rest of the party had gone to take care of their own business, whether that was commissioning cold iron weapons, recruiting adventuring companions, or collecting spell and warding components.
Before leaving to find the missing Professor Poplarlachs, Bart decided to look into the goddess Avandra, given Chari’s new set of freckles. The paladin enlisted the help of Professor Ryleigh, a specialist in legend lore, who set about taking blood samples and questioning the young monk at length. They would perhaps get some answers regarding Chari’s destiny, but it would take time.
Jinn, still puzzling out the code on the map he found in the temple to the water elementals, went to meet with Kristoff. The Zephyr revealed Zerin Landri's reticence to aid the Dragon Punchers was likely linked to the loss of his wife while adventuring years ago. Kristoff agreed to keep an eye out for the location on Jinn’s map, as it was some ways outside of Kellabine and potentially within his patrol perimeter.
Osdra agreed to take the group as far as Lanternmend, but declined to continue adventuring when informed Odallie would be accompanying the party. After informing the young tabaxi that Professor Paris would not be joining them, the Dragon Punchers made their way northwest towards the Gwybben Mountains. Through Wilf’s superior tracking and wilderness skills the group narrowly avoided encountering a pair of nesting manticores.
Moving deeper into the mountains the Dragon Punchers discovered the entrance to what appeared to be an old dwarven citadel.
