Session 6

Setting: Headquarters

PC: Durzo, Lo’Kag, Mykiela, Rhaine

NPC: Warren, Elanys

Renovations are moving along on the Order of Valor headquarters. Although it's still not on the same level as the other headquarters spread throughout the world, it's now presentable. The team meets with Commander Warren and Elanys for a briefing for tonight's meeting with the Amber Blossom Syndicate.

Elanys, with the help of Maera from the Book Wyrm library has done some research. Amber is used quite often in the iconography through the generations on the continent of Gale, particularly in the Fiery Desert region. Many cults, factions, etc. have used it in the past. The Amber Blossom Syndicate is one of many Thieves Guilds in Gale. They operate mainly in the Illustrious Market, but also in other smaller cities.

Setting: Thunder Dome

PC: Durzo, Lo’Kag, Mykiela, Rhaine

NPC: Tilo

Round 2 of the Thunder Dome Championships are on! Tilo floods the whole arena with water, and the participants are forced to fight on floating platforms, most of which are somewhat submerged in the water. Lo'Kag is able to defeat Mykiela in the first fight, and Durzo defeats Rhaine in the second fight. The match-up for the semi-finals are set with Lo'Kag fighting Durzo to see who gets a shot at the champion.

Setting: Hunting Lodge

PC: Durzo, Lo’Kag, Mykiela, Rhaine

NPC: Torr, Grimmdur

The team, led by Durzo, try some diplomacy on the Hunters. An entranced Grimmdur doesn't say a word as he is holding his vigil over his slain friend. Torr listens to what Durzo has to say, and agrees that an alliance is best for both parties. He also allows Mykiela cast Speak with Dead on the Elf. The Elf reveals that the assassin allowed him to see his face as he killed him.

The group discusses the new information when Azoth sees movement in the shadows outside. They all run out and see a figure step out of the shadows. It removes its mask and shows an Elven male face. "Oh hell, cousin," is what he says to Rhaine before he puts his mask back on and dips back into the shadows. When the group asks what it is he wants, Siril Goldenwood replies back, "chaos."

Setting: Soft Blossom Tea House

PCs: Durzo, Lo’Kag, Mykiela, Rhaine

NPCs: Torr, Amber Blossom Syndicate

After formulating a plan, the groups get into position outside the Soft Blossom Tea House. The Order walks in together, and see Sofia performing a music lesson. Three other members of the Syndicate move to block their path, and patrons continue to talk and enjoy their tea. Sofia refuses to send the patrons away, and asks, "How do you want to do this?"
