Session 21: Investigating Axiom Part 6 Report

General Summary

In pursuit of answers to the strange events that had befallen her, Feyre Blackwood snuck onto the grounds of House Laikanov, to meet with her friend Dimitry Laikanov. She instead encountered Yuela Laikanov, his sister sneaking into Dimitry's room. She shared secret letters being distributed between Dimitry and his paramour Elizabeth Darrow. Dimitry arrived and Feyre shared the events that had occured to her, including the circumstances of her death and resurrection. Dimitry suggested that Feyre should talk with her brother, Dorian Blackwood who serves as a the chief of security for Valga Tevrathis, an esteemed former member of the Deerai Collective and current member of the Brass Ring of Novus.

Back on the Bronze Ring, Winnow Olafson recieved a message from Kara Towers. Gathering Dac Earreac to her apartment, they met with Kara who explained that the investigation into Axiom is worse than she thought. She suggested that she take a more active role in the investigation, lest she continue to place the party in danger-- and in light of that fact that in two days time Novus will be celebrating Refounding Day, a massive celebration where any number of things could go wrong. Winnow gave her some leads, but when Dac mentioned the passing of Ones, Kara felt strongly that his death could be connected to the growing mysterious threat. They would need a Gearforged to read the Memory Gears of Ones. Graft, Vai, Cadence, and Curtis Thorne were all brought up as people who could help. Winnow also thought pressing Cadence on the dark deal she made for a weapon with someone connected to Coda could yield results.

Meanwhile, Rayla Moonshadow and Bramble Lightfeather went to visit Jondam Klefta at the Hallowed Abbey, looking for an ally in their struggle against Yira Inkstep. Jondam cast a divination spell to help Rayla make a decision about what to do. Connected to Mazarathes, the Ebon Prince showed Rayla two possible paths: The first showed Rayla and the party taking on Yira in battle, slaying the hag and freeing Avex Steelhoof. The second showed Rayla participating with Yira in a ritual to reactivate the Fey Gate, with the help of her friends. Mazarathes stress that whatever path she walk, she should not walk it alone. With that, a message was passed on to Rayla from Winnow, explaining that they should meet in party in Axiom, given the direness of the investigation.

In a lush park on the Silver Ring, Feyre met with Dorian and shared much of the same things she did with Dimitry. When she showed Dorian the brand on her chest, he seemed to recognize something about it, but she was unable to convince him to share more. He instead said that she should talk with Caspar Roslin, the scion of House Roslin and an ally of Valga Tevrathis and the Deerai Collective. Caspar is currently on mission to solicit funds from the various noble house to support the Collective's active projects and will be meeting with House Blackwood later that day. Dorian said he could arrange a meeting with Caspar secretly if Feyre wanted. She protested about the possibility of being spotted by her family, but agreed to meet Caspar.

Rayla and Bramble met up with the others at Axiom, seeing increased security outside the settlemnt. Kara arrived (now sporting a disguise) and used her credentials to help get the party into Axiom. Thanks to the rapport that Winnow created with Edgar, they were able to enter Axiom. Their target was Axiom Hall, where Ones's body was being kept and where the Axiom Rangers prepared for their return to the Mekanos Infinitum. Winnow found Vai, who was sympathetic to the investigation thanks to Winnow's efforts from the day prior. Vai bade the rest of the rangers to leave so that the group could confront Cadence, alone.

Feyre visited the grounds of House Laikanov to visit Dimitry.
