Session 35

As the party departs from the meeting with Migin, Tak interjects in their travel going back to their quarters. He thanks the party about keeping their cool around migin and informs them that this was kind of a last moment decision to keep you. Tak also informs the party that then need to meet at the docks in the morning, and tells them if they need to get anything now would be the right time. Wild goes down to visit Garvard the druidic dragon born, after exchanging welcomes wild explains that they are there to purchase potions from her. Garvard agrees and tells wild that it wouldnt be a problem, but she offers them a deal, saying if they plant a seed in the middle of the games she will give them a free potion on the house. Wild recongnizes the seed is quite dangerous and kindly denies the offer. Garvard dissapointingly says ok and make the deal with the potions. As wild walk back to the quarters in the tree they notice the seed that was suggested to plant in the bag of potions.

Wild walks up to the tree and the walk into a scene with different kobold also walking to their quarters. The different kobold bring a standing table and a box of odd shaped plant like needels, they anounce that they are here to make the champions feel better. The party is hesitant about the home medical procedure about to take place and Izen interjects and tells the kobolds to go away. Immediantly the kobolds tells izen that he is the first one to go and before he knows it he is strapped on the table about to be poked with large plant needels. Everyone is prepared for izen to scream in pain but a look of relief comes over his face as the procedure commmences. Lazarus is freaking out that his friend is killing him but alkinn assures him that there is no need to worry about his health. Izen gets done with the procdure and then Tymus tries his hand at the proccdure as well and the same effect is put on him as well. With tymus and Izen really relaxed they fall fast asleep ready  for the next day.

The next mornign the most of the party gets up in the morning, Izen and Tymus were still fast sleeping still. Lazaurs spashes tymus with a splash of water, and with that tymus wakes up in a panic. Wild goes over to the still sleeping Izen and puts him on their shoulder. As the party makes their way down to the docks of the village they notice that the horns to wake the workers up have not blown that morning. They also notice that a large group of people have ammased near the docks as well. The docks are lined with ornate looking ships and a crowd makes a path to the docks for the champions. They hear laughing and cheering at the same time not really sure if they want them to die or to live. Tak tells his goodbyes to everyone and says "I hope you Live!" in a very sarchastic manner. The ships on the docks were perched with large dragonells, the the boats did not have any sails as well. The group is shown onto their own ship with the group of other ships lining the docks. Suddenly the dragonells of the ships start beating their wings and the ships gradually lift out of the water. The fleet soars through the air to the land of colburn.

While soaring through the air Tymus wakes up izen with a sturdy slap, izen wakes up in a panic as well and panics even more realizing that he is in the air. He also notices the dragonborn that messed with him on the docks is there as well. The dragon born introduces is name as Timak. He also answers the questions of th eparty when they ask why there are 6 armed flying ships as well. Timak explains that they are so heavly armed because the other Ancient Dragons like to "take out the competiton" before the games begin. A day passes and nothing seems to happen, but by the next morning the party notices that the air is hotter and more dry. A smoky fog seems to cover the sky and the other ships seem to be on guard. Then as the ship start to sway large roars are heard from the around the fleet. Wyverns attack a ship from the left and the dragonells are torn to shreads, the ship plumets from sight. Whyverns land on the ship and start to attack the party and the rest of the ships. As the party fights for their lives Muta notices that the wyverns are wearing harnesses that have a red dragon symbol on it. After defeating the Wyverns the ships start to decend and a volcanic island can be seen from below.

The ships decend toward the volcanic island and everyone notices as they get closer the docks are lined with blue,red,green, and white banner.s Each representing the big four of the world(Emis, Snelldraxx, Migin, and Welldondra). The party notices that it seems like everyone around them is exstatic and are showering them with gifts, its almost like an offering to the dragons the warriors representst. The party also notices that migin steps off her boat along with her other soldiers, She gives everyone a beconing look and like stray animals they try to follow her. While trying to get through the crowd Izen notices that Wild is missing, they have found themselves looking at an oddly shapped waggon that seemed to be selling cider of sorts. Cerou's Apple Ciders, Wild also notices that the people around the wagon seem unaturaly attracked toward the cider and some are getting absoulutly wasted. Wild also notices that an elf playing an unfamiliar instrument sitting on the window of the wagon. As wild studies this wagon, Izen asks migin if it would be alright to search for the lost firbolg. Migina agreen and Izen starts off, after a couple miniuts of searching Izen finds himself at a House that looks to be repaired in all sorts of different manners, he also notices that the crowd of people around this house seem to be quite dimminished compared to the rest of the city he has seen, thinking that this might be the right place to look for wild. When walking into the house his is immediantly greeted with a warm welcome by a large elderly dragonborn cooking food. The house is filled with half fixed furniture and some kind faces. Izen walks up to the dragon born and asks if he has seen "what he describes as a firbolg." Supprisingly The large Dragon born knows what race he is talking about and says he hasnt seen him, the dragonborn also introduces himself as Ferd. Ferd relays to Izen that no kind of person has stepped foot in this area, but he would be more than happy to help. Ferd calls two people, vurd and cerd, to come here. Two smaller dragon born come forth and ferd tells his two sons to find this person Izen is looking for. After the two leave Ferd asks what Izen would like for eating, and on the house ferd makes soup. Ferd and Izen Exchange stories and it seems as if ferd is a good person and was once an adventurer.

Lazarus, alkinn, muta, and Tymus follow Migin to what seems to be a small cannoue of sorts, migin gets on and tells the rest of the group to follow suit.  Everyone piles onto the large cannoue and it lifts off of a small dock in the middle of the city. The group follows the natural fresh water river cutting through the city, and it leads them through a large tunnel filled with glowing gems and flowing lava spouts. On the other side of the tunnel the group stumbles upon the larger part of the city, it almost seems as if the city is sitting on a leaning rock. A large ornate building is seen at the top of rock, and to the east 4 large pillars can be seen in the distance. Migin gets off of the boat and tells the other where they need to stay the night, and also tells alkinn that she needs her attendance. The party splits even more as alkinn and migin make their way toward the ornate building.
They make their way through corridors and allys to avoid attention and finnaly arrive at the huge building, it looks even more larger up close. Alkinn notices that around the build only sits guards and not a sigle citizen in sight. When getting to the top they start making their way to the large doors, then suddenly alkinn foot is stepped on by a short man passing them, alkinn yells at the man, at first he ignores her but then she reaches out to grab him and alkinn is parilized in fear as he tells her not to touch him. He tells alkinn to mind her manners and that she shoudnt even be talking to man like him. With a strong push away the man walks off and the parilizing affect is overcome. Alkinn not knowing what just happened is star struck, migin tells her that it would be suggested to shut her mouth for the time being, and she also explains that alkinn is lucky to be alive seeing how that is Emis, the unjust Judge. Migin lead Alkinn inside of the large building and they are greeted by a old looking black dragonborn. The dragonborn bows to migin but does not bow to alkinn.

When walking inside Migin tells alkinn to sit in the almost empty hall while she attends to something in the other room. Alkinn looks around and notices a small group of people on one of the ends of the room, infact they are the only other people in that room at all! After a bit of silence alkinn decides to walk up to the three people, one is a white dragon born, one is a blue dragon born, and another is an elderly man dressed in red garb. As she approaches the white dragonborn excitingly introduces themselves as Neldra, he tries to get to know alkinn as much as possible and alkinn notices that Neldra might not be the smartest fish in the barrel. Alkinn starts to ask questions about the game, the elderly man mockingly tell alkinn that they are probably going to loes and not going to go very far with the little information that they have. Alkinn seem weary of this man and a tensness of the air is overwhelming. The white dragon tries to settle down the situation with some witty words. The elderly man introduces himself as Manson and walks to the other end of the room away from everyone else. Alkinn notices the blue dragon born is oftly quiet and asks the name of hom and he introduces himself as Crerdis. With all the choosen fighters of the dragons gathered they start to wonder what will happen in the following days, it seems as if the white dragonborn has no idea why he has been choosen.  Alkinn asks about the black dragonbborn and Crerdis explains that it is the mediator of the big four, he also explains that he is also a priest. They wait is almost killing Alkinn and she starts to snoop around the room, when she passes the door that Migin walked through she hears something- "jfsiusefn Is she secure?, yes,,, skfheihnenio" - "thats good, after the game our brother risese and all will be for the taking...." - She is not sure as to what that mean and when she starts listing again manson grabs a hold of her shoulder and tells her to stop ease dropping on the Big Four. A few miniutes pass and Four figure walk out of the room with the priest, Migin, Emis, a woman in white clothing, and a man with a mechanical device in his chest. Migin release Alkinn after walking out and tells her to go to the choosens inn to sleep for the night.

Lazarus, Muta, and Tymus watch as migin and Alkinn walk toward the ornate looking building on the top of the leaning rock. As they try to find their surroundings Lazarus gets a feeling in his spine almost as if he has been there before, Lazarus looks around and see a very familiar sign of two toungs wrapped around eachother, on the sign, it reads "The Twisting Toungs". Muta and Tymus see lazarus walk forward and walking into the large tavern, they follow suit trying to get answers from lazarus. The three walk throught the tavern a immediantly notice magical whispers telling stories and acting memorable adventures in their heads, They wonder what is is and they recognize it as an unique wild magic. Lazarus asks the bar tender if they have seen a man with a silver scar and the bar tender says no, they find a table and lazarus seems confused, muta asks about this and Lazarus explains that they have seen this before in a vision. Tymus is intrigued by the food and the drink here and eats while listing to lazarus's explination of the vision. The food here is unique needless to say. As the three in the tavern finishes things there, they try to walk to the Choosen's Inn, when opening the door the stumble upon Alkinn trying to make their way to the inn as well!

As Izen makes good converstion with Ferd, ferd explains that he hates the island and all the treachary that takes place within it. He also tels Izen that he helps thoese escape the dragons grasp and to go to better places in the future. As he finishes up his meal Ferd tells him that its on the house! Meanwhile Wild is investigating the barrel wagon, whe two identical looking dragonborn walk up to them. They them wild that they need to come with them. Wild agrees and walks into Ferd's Brew. Izen sees wild and says hes thankful of Ferd helping him find his friend. Izen and Wild also make their way to the Inn after asking around where the champions might stay. Everyone meets up at the Champions in and they greet eachother, they notice that the inn almost seems to be a mini prison or fortrees of what might keep them in line if they were to go out of line. The party figures out where their room and they get settled inside, as they are getting settled Neldra accidently bursts in the room, realizing they are in the wrong room he shuts the door immediantly. Tymus stands next to the door so no one will ease drop on them. Alkinn catches the party up on the situation and the potential of another ancient dragon coming back from the dead, and she also informs the party of the other champions of the other dragons, explaining that all except the red group seem to bo tolarable. As alkinn finishes Izen informs the group of Ferd and how he might be a valuable resource in the future. Lazarus inform the party that they need to go to the twisting tounge at night because of the vision he had. As everyone is catching up Alkinn has a painful vision of the whole city of Colburn covered in a black smoke a thousands dead on the ground, she falls and thankfully lazarus catches them. Alkinn tells the group on what she saw.

After Catching up and trying to catch their breath from what just happened the group starts to make their way to the Twisting Toung. While traveling that direction Muta eye is caught by something in an ally way, a small child goblin was saying hello in theves cant to everyon who passed. Muta tells the group she will keep up and approches the child, the child excitingly says hellp and is exctatic that muta can understand the luanguage, the child then explains that they need someones help. Muta tries to get a name from the child but the kid insists that muta meed her at the black scale market at night... Alone, and just as soon as muta noticed that the child was there she was gone. And then Feeling her pockets muta finds a coin with the symbol of the Thieves Guild she has been searching for.

After that incident the group asks muta if anything is wrong and she convinces most of the party that it was just nothing. The Party finally arives at the Twisting Toungs once more and it seems as if Lazarus is even more enctraced than the last time he was here, seeing that all of his actions almost met the vision he had to a point. Lazarus quickly walks in and tries to find the table that the man was sitting at that he recognized.As he quickly searched throught the tavern he sees what might be the place, he hears laughing something that he remembers in his vision, alkinn as notices that the laugh sound familiar to Crerdis. As soon as he is about to turn the corner alkinn stops him, saying that the people that is is about to talk to is the blue team, lazarus at first seem unsure but assures alkinn that he needs to see the people sitting there. When lazarus turns the corner his eyes are met with a man with silver scars, the laughing table full of Two blue dragonborns, A tortle, an Orc, and Two humans all quite down. The tortle immediantly hids in his shell, Lazarus apoligies for the interuption but the scared man tells him that is quite alright. The rest of the party show up and Crerdis apoligizes to alkinn about the joke he made. Lazaurs slowly sits at the table as the human lady and the orc invite some of the other party to another table across the room.  The scared man introduces himself a Vokril to Lazarus and says that it almost seems as if they have met before. Lazarus says the same thing as this is the man he saw in his vision. Vokril asks who everyone is and also asks where everyone has come from. As he is making this conversation Lazarus keeps noticing that it almost seems as if this man cannot seem to keep his eyes off him. Every one else at the table also notices this as well. Then as the greetings are going around lazarus get a knock in his head, he lets the magic in and a vocie is heard, "Did the Higer-ups Send you Here?". Lazarus responds with confusion. Then Vokril asks lazarus if they would be able to speak in private, the party at the table hesitates at first but does not see any harmful intentions with Vokril, alkinn tells lazarus if they need anything tell her. Vokril and Lazarus make their way to a private table, and as soon as they sit down Vokril starts asking Lazarus questions about who sent him and why he was here, Lazarus seems confused with the questions and has no idea what Vokril is talking about. Vokril mentions the frekles on lazaruses face but a connection cannot still be drawn.  Finnaly Vokril cups his hands and a warm white magic is shown to lazarus he asks if lazarus knows what this is and again Lazarus seems intrigued but still confused. He says, "You dont know who you are do you?" Lazarus says, "what do you mean?" and with that Vokril exstends his hand toward Lazarus's Head. Just as before with darpon a finger is exstended but instedad of fear clouding his mind intrige and wonder do, The finger touches Lazarus's Forehead and insead of a black darkness and pain covering his mind, suddenly his mind is filled with a white lightness and clearvoiance, A blast of radiant magic releases from lazarus causing the entire tavern to shake. Lazaurs's freekles gleam with light along side the scars on Vokrils face. Images of a gleaming city in the sky and his celestial heritage come racing throught his mind almost as if they were memories. Then suddenly on the oposite side of the tavern a darkness envelopes everything, and monsterous demons start immerging from the walls, and the furniture, and the celing. These dark creature immerge from what seems nothing saying, "We must crush the light and embrace the dark." Both the blue team and the Green team prepare to battle as all chaos seems to insue.
