The party had dreams/nightmares from their lesser gods about loss, of family, home, etc.
Eles specifically dreamed about her forest burning and the Raven Queen losing her powers. She spoke to Eles for the first time and told her she'd be sending her a Raven for aid. The raven's name is "guatir" or "guard". At least, that's the word that Eles got from him when she got him.
Guatir called Merrli "an abomination" in Eles's
Merrli was basically ouija'd into his pact with Lolth? "A stupid mistake"? But he did ask how/if gods could be killed so...And he has a dream that her powers were growing
Still don't understand what was up with the weird decapitated head island -something something Asmodeus and star tracking? No visitors on the island for a long time before the island was strangely attacked by orcs in a red boat Migvor Orcs. Met Huvir the gnome - a jerk, sketchy as hell -works with orcs - something about math/astronomy, Asmodeus and finding truth -"I didn't want them beheaded -something about being alone for the research -tied him up and contacted Pelk to retrieve him
Asmodeus -chaotic evil -greater god that still messes with the mortal plane -was in charge during the demon wars -
Malakar -Asmodeus's right hand -Killed in a forest? Hi name was invoked when we were basically exorcising Baeloknecht
Lolth -spider queen -goddess of the drow -also tricked into an allyship with Asmodeus -lost a pincer-stabbed by a paladin
The scaled mother: -Lizardfolk goddess -sister of Shugwai -accidentally killed Shugwai's demi-god son -fought against Asmodeus and Malakar -Killed by Asmodeus and Shugwai
Shugwai -Yuanti goddess - sister of the Scaled mother -sought revenge for her son by allying with Asmodeus -some Yanti believe the good part of her still exists -Also made the Grippli with her sister
This all seems like Demon Wars pt. 2 is brewing. Is someone now targeting the lesser gods? What does Asmodeus have to gain? I don't think we've heard his name yet specifically, just Malakar's
Why sow discontent between the Yuanti and the lizardfolk? Has Shugwai gained more power somehow?
Lots of talk about the afterlife recently found a book in Miklau temple named "death of the Afterlife" the lesser races don't have an afterlife. Merrli also asked if gods could be killed (this moment has obviously stuck around in my head.)
Some dis/connection with lesser races and lesser gods. Technically the Raven Queen is a lesser god, but Eles is one of the Greater Races?
If all of the party's gods are lesser gods and they all sent us dreams/nightmares about their power and the dangers ahead, what does that mean for the world? Goblins and Demons are also walking around again- and there were infernal pools in one of those early towns
