Day 24: Escort Quest
General Summary
Day 24 (Prizrachnayaluna 28, 735/???)
They begin the day at 2 am, when upon seeing a group of practically unarmed townsfolk including several children and an octogenarian who are trying to flee to Krezk in the dead of night, they decide the best course of action is to go with them, despite one of them not having finished a long rest yet, one of them being mysteriously unconscious, and one of them being at half-health. Somehow, they make it to Krezk with only one person dead and only one person missing a limb, after battling multiple waves of wolves, dire wolves, zombies, and one attack by a few swarms of bats. Ayduin and Sylvain both suffer debilitating periods of sickness, with Sylvain's manifesting as a headache and Ayduin's showing up as a cough that brings the lingering smell of sulfur in full force. Osrin's eyes, when she awakes, are back to normal, but breaking her pact took a toll on her. Arrigal arrives to ask them what the hell they're doing. Bray arrives to tell them HE ESCAPED FROM CASTLE RAVENLOOOOFT. (And he brought friends!) The gang, and all the commoners they're escorting, get a firsthand demonstration that the Martikovs and their allies are indeed wereravens. At Krezk, they're informed that with winter already there in Krezk, the villagers have no interest in another dozen mouths to feed, but after some bargaining from Vitaliya, they're given permission to take their wards up to the abbey. Just as they're settling down for their long rests, however, they notice a large number of wolves hopping over the abbey's outer wall, seemingly cutting through the grounds towards Krezk. TLDR: They fought the wolves and... either no one won or everyone did, because they did save two people and kill two werewolves and several wolves, but two of them were bitten, and the rest of the wolves escaped, along with four hostages. Despite all this, Sylvain scores a definite win when he breaks his pact with Zantras, with a little help from Tymora.
