Session 56: Lord Mirt, Dolls, and The Void...

General Summary

Mirt taunts the group, telling Silas his sister is where time cannot touch her, with Anya finally losing her cool and firing Winter’s Dawn at him. He returns with his own attack and a fight breaks out. Silas and Clover attack while Anya heals and shifts into a bronze dragon. Offa attempts to use his Synaptic Static but Mirt avoids it. Selle protects the group with Aura of Life while Sikander, shouting “For all sisters!” and takes a flying leap dealing a massive amount of damage with Wibbles.
Silas and Sikazashi continue to swing while Clover brings out the spiders, one of them tangling Mirt up. He is still able to cast and sends Sikander to another dimension – A Room with a Moose – despite Silas attempting to counter the spell.
Sikander finds himself in a snowy void with walnuts falling around him, filling him with terror as a giant white moose stands above him.
Anya shifts back and shoots Mirt, breaking his concentration, while Offa and Selle attack with Eldritch blast and a spiritual mace.
Meanwhile, Sikander tries bonding with the moose, nearly getting hit with walnuts. He finally manages to convince the moose to allow him to climb up. They head off with a “Come on Moosie, eastward!” spotting a passageway.
Back in the room, Silas slips in, attacks Mirt, and slips back looking for a hidden doorway unsuccessfully. As Mirt flees, an ethereal passageway appears and Sikander is just visible riding a moose until they come through, when the white moose shrinks to tiny while eating walnuts and Sikander falls to the ground. He stands and introduces them all to the white moose as Groovy the Moose.
Looking around the room, they find a few dolls and Selle removes curse on the one that looks like the emperor’s mother, Kasuga, freeing her. She is disoriented and panicking looking for her child. They try to ask her questions of how she came to be here (drinking cursed tea) and Selle removes curse on the baby doll Offa picked up from the crib. As he does it turns into an eldritch monster – a God Eater.
They all attack the creature, with Selle protecting Kasuga. The tentacles do quite a bit of damage, causing even Offa to feel dark and uncomfortable, seeing a vision of the very void itself - the room with a moose as he realizes it is not the past, but the present that is completely devoid of all life. Even Scent begins freaking out and warns up they need to attack indirectly.
Determined to find Samyra as he hears her calling from the maybe), Silas pulls open a void through time and space while Sikander stands in front of Anya to protect her, swinging with Wibbles and ends up grappled.
Offa looks at the group, then the void, and says to them, “I was brought back from the void - I am sorry” as he runs into the void.
  Back on the first floor, it appears to be on fire but gives off no heat. The dolls are corpses now as he tries to exit the castle and sees nothing but solid packed earth.
  Selle attempts to Bane the creature, but it resists as he pulls Kasuga out of the monster’s reach. Anya, hoping to indirectly damage the creature, casts Wall of Fire but learns it is immune to fire.
