The Gorgames
General Summary
Having been ambushed, the party used some quick thinking and hard hits to clear the battlefield. After doing so, Bahubat and Stela noticed a set of arcane bands around everyone's wrists. Inspecting the bands, they found a clock face matching their arrival time and a counter that seemed to mostly trend downward sporadically, with the occasional uptick. Upon the wrists of their ambushers, they found similar bands though all but the clock face had greyed, and the counter was gone completely. Oliver, meanwhile, noticed they had been teleported in front of the Library entrance. The entrance had a barrier around it but was the primary goal of coming into the games, so the party decided to take a rest while discussing next steps. During the party's rest, Bahubat also noticed a group of four bands that were completely ashen, including the clock face, that appeared to be cleanly cut and blown against a tree near the barrier. It appears as though someone had entered the library after joining The Gorgames. The party finished a long rest, awaking to decide whether to dash headlong into the Library after those who entered or continue participating in The Gorgames.
