Session 18

General Summary

Welcome to Jenny / Marthiel (Marthi)
Marthi joins the party in the ruins of Thradcoed, after taking the same bounty they and Carter Atercyne had. Party finished encounter with Mort Trouter, the young man who had purchased the journal of Hastor the Unburnt by talking him out of keeping the book, destroying the undead and convincing him to come with the party to the Admyr Academy of Arcana where he gives it to Aralt Gatis in return for a reward. Carter Atercyne leaves the party at the New Gate and tells Felix Bermont that he will wait for them at Raph's Hall in Mosston. Whilst at the academy, Ella shows Aralt the Ring of the Winter King and asks if he can remove it, he immediately contacts a cleric from the Temple of Anu who is able to cast remove curse and have the item removed. The voice from the ring tells Ella "she'll be back" as its being removed and sends a bolt of freezing magic up her arm, marking her with a jagged blue scar up the inside of her forearm. The party spends the night at the Rastor's Rest, Wisk makes some money from locals playing cards against them whilst the rest of the party spend time getting to know Marthi. The party then heads over to the Greencloaks barracks and talks with Commander Keen. Eventually it is decided not to go ahead with the raid on the docks that was due in a few days but instead to encourage the guard to keep a tighter reconnaissance on them and wait for the Sea Queen to arrive. Keen asks the party to get the amulet as far from Drakestone as he doesn't want this cult summoning demons in his city. The party go about making various purchases - silvering weapons, horses and carts then head south to Mosston. The party arrives in Mosston and beelines for Raph's Hall. They arrive, have a few drinks then rent rooms. They pool their knowledge on Mythal -> not much but believe him to be the villain in a story.   Party has the amulet -> Ella specifically.  They then head down into the feast hall and meet Carter who calls them over to his table. They discuss a number of things, basically reporting on what they've encountered over the last week. Carter asks to see the amulet, confirms he hasn't seen anything like it before and then gives it back to the party. He tells the party that there have been a number of disappearances in the town that he thinks is related to the artefact he is searching for, the Shunte Locus or Palantir. The session ends as the party retire to their rooms for sleep.
