Session 3: What About the Ravens? Report

General Summary

The party began their day at the Silver Stag. After resting, the party made their way back to the Crystal Keep. As they left the Silver Stag and headed for the top of the Point, Lex witnessed the water level rising rapidly up the side of Mestone's coast. The party then high-tailed it to the Liserian Vestibule where they again spoke with the Silver Sentry.    This time, the ancient protector was more willing to hear out their worries and complaints. After coming to understand more about what the root of the situation was, he suggested that the party take off and solve this issue on their own. Just then, Bentham burst in the doors and apprised the Silver Sentry of the situation out in the city. He encouraged the party members to either follow up at Helonde, Ziragzig, or the Abbey. He then disappeared in a flash of light, and the PCs were left alone with the Hand of Olorum and Ilas Iroten floating above the crystal. They all held hands and Satra reached out and touched the crystal.   They suddenly found themselves in another castle, but this time it was much more standard medieval castle vibes. There were three guards in the room with them who told them to surrender and took them to a throne room when they obliged. There, they met Cayem Brighthistle, the Vizier, who offered them passage to the city in exchange for killing a competitor of his in Helonde, and the reassurance that Satra would return to her job in Caminster. Finding this to be an undesirable outcome, the party attacked the Vizier and killed most of his guards when he eventually surrendered and gave them the run of the town. After asking him a few questions and getting the information they needed, the party ventured into Helonde and found the Alley, a street with taverns in a row across from a townhouse brothel. Going inside, Lex completed the Super Boar Slammer eating challenge successfully, consuming an entire boar in one sitting.    The party got some information from the dwarven waitress that ended up pointing them toward Adelphos Erassa, a unicorn centaur wizard who resides on the southern side of Helonde. The party went there and met with him, and learned that the Ravens of Amora were going to attempt to walk amongst the planes somewhere in the Rift. The party asked how they could make it to the Rift and stop them in time, and that's where the session ended.
