Increasingly Aville and a slightly confused band of nouveau riches escaped about the city. They have money, but they also have targets behind Yong. It is unclear who will bear the Lothian church, criminal gangsters, surgeons, various cultists, Vladam of the house, and perhaps the grade of Rich, but a level of paranoia seems appropriate.
Remembering a gentle investigation, the Tejos wilderness seems to be a place where you will be lost for a while.
Passage is obtained, and the group sails along, meets a longboat near Finotae, and eventually docks into the elves' enclave of Perint. Zar becomes himself as the rest of the group is quietly shunned… except for the dwarves who are actively shunned. A little bit back and forth, the group says that the Fukit and summons will mount to ride into the wilderness.
They set off along the coast, running north each day, and walk a little while until the mount disappears and find a nice campsite. Near the peaks of the mountains they are passing by, there are sightings of strange Griffins passing by to make their days exciting…it looks like this side of the mountain range. hang on! What is it? The Eagle Eyed Wife reports that there appears to be a vortex of crackling energy and sound that swirls around an area near the cliff. right! Full speed ahead.
They arrive and find a wonderful sealed stone door and the aforementioned energy vortex, making everything a little tingling. Still, what is a huge sealed door for when it doesn't open? It's certainly good to have a very strong dwarves! After a mediocre yet taboo door opening ceremony, the group wanders the halls and rarely finds an interesting variety of traps. Poisonous darts, sharp discs, statues shooting cold lava cones, and fantastic bridges over acid prevent them from passing through to their final destination.
Does Endgame seem like a wise man? Protected by zapping crystals and force fields. The repeated application of Shadoobie spells crushes crystals and destroys more force field anchors. This appears to be angering the residents, and he raises his level to kill the intruders, stealing most of the party members before succumbing to his wounds. A few light loots follow before the dead reset to a living state and actual looting begins. They set out to loot, heal, and seek out a life-threatening encounter. Country Ah… so relaxing.
They crossed the mountain and descended into the valley below, attempting to explore some of the ruins they discovered during the descent. Skeletal figures are found in a relatively large number of several locations. The party has set out about bringing together an attack plan.
