Session 1 - A Passage Through Novus - Part 1 - Report

General Summary

Our story began outside of Novus, in the Outer Wilds, as a group of Adamantine Wayfinders fled a dangerous monster within the Miasma, while the city of Novus remain largely blind and unaware of the dangers beyond.

We found ourselves in the home studio of Winnow Olafson, a young artist and taxidermist. At the urging of her aunt, Agathe Fentheana, Winnow tentatively agreed to a meeting with the Indigo Ink Artists Collective. Winnow friend's, Rayla Moonshadow arrived, primarily to help Winnow get to this meeting. Winnow was apprehensive about leaving, but agreed.

Meanwhile, Feyre Blackwoodarrived at the home of Nance in the Dust District. Nance, the leader of a crime group she calls the Dusters, had been working on a plan with Gunn to steal some Ethereum crystals from some abandoned machinery in the Windswept District. It would require the Dusters to recruit a machinist. Luckily, Doxa had been working hard to recruit Dac, a youthful Aarakocra and hobbyist inventor for the task. Their plan: access the Windswept District through disused rail lines that are a part of the Novus Rail Transit System.

It just so happened that this train was the same train that carried Winnow and Rayla to the Copper Ring. When Nance distracted the docent and Dac messed the train's onboard electronics. All sorts of trouble broke loose. Winnow panicked and Rayla when into protective mode. Then the train came to a sudden stop within the under tunnels of the Copper Ring. Though bumpy, everything seemed to be going to plan for Nance's crew -- that is until the train was beset by several stirges.
