General Summary
"What if you just put the holy oil, and massage it into the eyes in his beard maybe they will go away?"
Zuktern
- Farren and the party found Zuktern sleeping on salvaged blankets in the destroyed portion of the city.
- Desipte his own opinions, Farren did give the scroll of instructions to Zuktern, stating that it was Zuktern's choice to make.
- Zuktern seemed to be able to see the ghost of Dainard. He also claimed to be able to see all, asked Harold what he was, and looked curiously at Beau.
- Zuktern expressed only a desire to revert from the abomination he had become.
- Both Farren (by the power of paladin) and Alton (by the power of Kayelin's senses) did not sense anything undead about the giant. Alton actually found Zuktern seemed filled with the energy of life.
- Harold attempted to "heal" the giant, first by trying to drain the "curse" with his helmet and then by glowing bright with Gantar's light. The former only resulted in Zuktern taking minor damage and Harold's helmet's eyes glowing briefly. The latter only resulted in most parties present shielding their eyes due to blinding light. Harold also proposed offering the giant Gyrdyr's coin. After dropping the coind after only twelve seconds, Farrren talked Harold out of this plan, assuming that it would only harm the giant further. Harold also proposed using the holy oil ??? This idea was also shot down.
- Alton asked Ryltar if he knew anything about the giant's condition based on his "experience" with Talabiira's family. This made Ryltar uncomfortable, but he also had no insight to offer. The party had already seen some of Nedyyanna's experiments, but they had all been related to vampirism. Whatever Talabiira had done to the giant was something else.
- The giant appreciated the effort.
- Beau left to ... do something in private.
- Alton left to go to the Familiar Sign.
- Harold and Farren went to go and see Tragir and Jecbar.
Tragir and Jecbar
- Jecbar looked to have not slept, but claimed that Milor had helped him uncover a ritual that might be of use. He mentioned something about needing one of the eyes for it and heading out to find components.
- Captain Farren told Tragir of the backdoor into Ogmothynstar they had found.
- Tragir promised to attempt to find six to eight stealthy storm giants to assist in the mission.
- Beau returned to Zuktern to find the party gone. She offered to play music for the giant, but he declined and directed her in the direction of her companions.
Familiar Sign
- Alton went to the nearly empty bar. Ryltar questioned the early drinking.
- Alton mentioned that this was going to be the second time he snuck into a demon infested place with the party and told of Amberlight.
- Ryltar mentioned having met someone from the Curator's Institute in Auroliryn after Alton had left. Alton was dissapointed this did not seem to be a romantic interest about which to gossip.
- Alton poured a glass for Aurolyr and placed it on the table. Farren arrived and asked if that worked.
- The party discussed their plans.
- Ryltar offered to study/prepare any spells the party thought would help them.
Shopping Again and Also the Important Matter of the Size of Luin's Sword
- Since his bow would not work well underwater, Alton went to find a crossbow. He purchased a +1 crossbow of mutable size and fifty giant bolts as well as some normal bolts.
- Captain Farren inquired as to how he might ensure that Luin's sword of Sunlight would grow to match him if he were to completely down one of the giant enhanced enlarge potions. The shopkeep specialized in ranged and thrown hunting weaponry, but explained that the spell was usually added during the creation of the weapon and he did not know of a way it could be done.
- The captain made it his quest to fix the issue, as it was important for Luin's image also definitely 16 to persuade the goddess...
- Harold went to test out his helmet, using it to finish off a fish and did not observe any glowy eyes.
