The founding of the party over Dinner with Eckhart
The history of Deus Umbra
Deus Umbra, along with some nomads that were followers of Tavos, God of the Storm completed a ritual that allowed the deity to reclaim his lost body and consume the power of a wandering storm elemental and his followers.
Himolos attacked Deus Umbra while they were in an alley, putting up a prismatic wall at one end of the alley and confronting them at the other. He was accompanied by several of his fellow Red Hand members. Deus Umbra was able to kill Himolos and several of his followers, with the exception of two Red Hand members, named Thorrik and Turu who escaped this encounter. Himolos' death left a vacancy in the Council of Edristad.
Deus Umbra escapes the Failed Rescue at M'erenal and ends up in the home of Onan God of the Distant Star . While waiting, the traumatized and exhausted group decided to rest. Bob shot a sleeping Alethea with a miniature ballista and almost murdered her. Later, after resting, Onan provides the group with a "map" of sorts that allows the group to see the future of 5 groups/deities/people that were important to their cause. Deus Umbra decided that each group member could choose one.
Bob chose Eckheart who was being held captive by the Pale Dawn, and was able to see that without intervention, Eckheart would break and reveal everything he knew.
Patir chose Taldel and was able to see that he was wondering around The Cleft Spires. Taldel appeared to have gone mad, however some unseen event occurred and Taldel began a rapid journey towards Ravencrest.
Alethea chose the girl she had been dreaming about and believed to be a deity (Dystia, Goddess of Magic). The girl seemed to appear stronger as time went on.
The group then together chose the Lamasu (Sarnuvir God of Justice and Freedom). They could see that as time went on, his following became stronger and his alignment appeared to be good. He seemed to pick up the mantle for justice.
The group then selected Lady Ravencrest as their final choice. The group saw Lady Ravencrest in the city of Ravencrest with the city stabilizing.
A massive battle occurred between many armies gathered from across Brom and the Cult of Rail.
Deus Umbra traveled through a portal left by Zydriss, The Undying in M'Erenal and confronted him in his own plane. After Zydriss was defeated, Orion Sollarus tried to capture his soul in a large sapphire. Patir Nadaar then revealed that Dust, God of Time had taken Zydriss' soul and claimed the plane as his own. The plane was inhabited by obsidian dragonborn who all were followers of Zydriss. Dust, God of Time gave all of the present dragonborn a chance to live, if they will follow him. The ones who refused were immediately turned to dust.
