Session 49: Modestly Sized Hut
General Summary
The session began, a bit after noon on DeepFrost 9, 2597 in the Merchant Quarter of Foun across the small lake form Ignatio's Arcaneum in the Gu'us Empire. The party were standing around the mangled corpse of a gnome when the guards showed up. Jerald interviewed those who claimed to have knowledge of the event (accidnetally including Tork) and Atticus volunteered Alena Birch's speak with dead to aid in the investigation on behalf of Ambassador Rodan Spice. Jerald accepted and they had the following conversation with the corpse:
Following this shopping stop, a group of purple tieflings directed Atticus towards the bookstores where Atticus located a narrow rickety building sandwiched between two larger structures and with books filling the window. Inside, crowded aisles of books had narrow passages through them with stacks reaching above the waist all around. An old woman made her way from the back and introduced herself as Lydia. She was questioned by the party is zone of truth where she revealed she was not interested in plagarism or selling anything, just in collecting information. With this and some persuasion by Atticus, she agreed to sell Atticus her hidden collection of books on Infernal Contracts & Occultism (40 volumes for 700GP total). It was further agreed as this was not a shop but just her home where she collected infromation, that there would be an information exchange where she would pass information to Atticus via the MotherWhore of Absolute Pleasantries or Gmail's Message Service and Atticus was copy tomes to send her way.
Following this a stop was made at a very busy Gmail's Message Service where the following conversations took place:
They flew south stopping every hour for Tork to recast his polymorph. As they went they saw farm fields and small villages along the river as well as sawmills and barges with timber making their way North. As sunlight exited the day, they could still see the trees drawing closer and closer to the river until in their 5th hour of flight they found a large tent settlement directly at the base of the widneing V. Filled with lumber jacks and workers of wood, campfires, and all tents being massive (minimum 20'x20'x10'), they returned to their normal forms. Deep into the encampment they found a social tent with sounds of a tavern flowing out as well as a smell of a pine mead. Atticus altered his appearnce to match Miz and along with Tork seeking arm wrestling, went into the tavern tent. This was where the session ended, near 11PM on DeepFrost 9, 2597, at the base of The Widening V in the Gu'us Empire.Bread is the Best Topic

With this information, Jerald thanked the party and promised to share information to Ambassador Rodan Spice and Joint Operations LLC about the woman and spells if they should find her. They then went to find a bank and located the Reinforced Chest. Rodan Spice emptied out his 10,000GP account to pay for his +2 rapier (which he quickly went back and purchased from the Armorer's Well). The next place the party went was following Tork to find a place to sell his five gem encrusted goblets. The place they located was Quality Cuts ran by a pixie Rodan Spice barely kept himself from kidding. After appraising, Tork was given 4,000GP for his bowls (he then bought the bracers he had placed on layaway at Ignatio's Arcaneum).Atticus: Identify Yourself Corpse: Leona Rollins Atticus: Do You Know What Happened To You, Your Last Memory?

Following this shopping stop, a group of purple tieflings directed Atticus towards the bookstores where Atticus located a narrow rickety building sandwiched between two larger structures and with books filling the window. Inside, crowded aisles of books had narrow passages through them with stacks reaching above the waist all around. An old woman made her way from the back and introduced herself as Lydia. She was questioned by the party is zone of truth where she revealed she was not interested in plagarism or selling anything, just in collecting information. With this and some persuasion by Atticus, she agreed to sell Atticus her hidden collection of books on Infernal Contracts & Occultism (40 volumes for 700GP total). It was further agreed as this was not a shop but just her home where she collected infromation, that there would be an information exchange where she would pass information to Atticus via the MotherWhore of Absolute Pleasantries or Gmail's Message Service and Atticus was copy tomes to send her way.
Following this a stop was made at a very busy Gmail's Message Service where the following conversations took place:
Message to No from Tork: Hey, just checking in. Seeing if you have any information about killing this deity. Were are they? Okay, thanks. No: For 10,000s of gold, that isn't my problem.
- Message from Rodan to the MotherWhore of Absolute Pleasantries: In just one meeting, you blew me away with your fierce power and undeniable presence. Can't stop thinking about you – you're amazing.Following all of these errands, a conversation took place as they wandered the Merchant District about how to possibly adavance their search for Miz. Wanting to travel down to Miz's last known location, they thought about different travel methods (especially needing to be back by DeepFrost 19, 2597 for a meeting with Elder Je’Son and the Court). Horses would take 7 days round trip with little time at their destination. Wondering about teleporting, they asked a gnome, halfling and goblin about permanent teleportation centers in the city. The goblin said none were public but there likely were teleportation circles in the Court, in Ignatio's Arcaneum, in some of the temples in the Gracehood, and possibly other places as well. Rodan Spice then insulted the goblin and the goblin replied in goblin "Mother Fucking Dick Sucking Cunt Muncher". Atticus next asked a guard who said the Court likely had some telportation options for the Ambassador. As they began making their way towards the Court, Wren proposed they use their druids and Tork's wand of polymorph to fly as giant eagles to their destination 100 miles south of Foun. With this option, the party went and took a quick long rest (30 seconds in the real world) in their private plane aboard the Absolute Majesty III, dropped off Cameel and Folta, and began their journey south following the widening V.MotherWhore You flatter me dear. Business is going well, things are turning a corner, can't wait to see you sharply dressed and a bit wealthier soon.
They flew south stopping every hour for Tork to recast his polymorph. As they went they saw farm fields and small villages along the river as well as sawmills and barges with timber making their way North. As sunlight exited the day, they could still see the trees drawing closer and closer to the river until in their 5th hour of flight they found a large tent settlement directly at the base of the widneing V. Filled with lumber jacks and workers of wood, campfires, and all tents being massive (minimum 20'x20'x10'), they returned to their normal forms. Deep into the encampment they found a social tent with sounds of a tavern flowing out as well as a smell of a pine mead. Atticus altered his appearnce to match Miz and along with Tork seeking arm wrestling, went into the tavern tent. This was where the session ended, near 11PM on DeepFrost 9, 2597, at the base of The Widening V in the Gu'us Empire.
