Session 29, The Queen Calls

When last we left our heroes they had tied up their loose ends in Erumalda, with Balran speaking with his family, Loro helping an elvish soul find this lands afterlife, and Shangri speaking with his grandmother for some time. Later in the day a messenger arrived from a boat that was wrecked by the northern sea serpent bearing a message from the Elturian Queen. She called them to action, requiring their aid in putting a stop to the rebellion in Mralgir. The group then chartered the same merchant vessel that took them to Erumalda, and made way for the free hold. On the journey their boat was once again attacked by the sea serpent and its minions. They quickly dispatched the sauhagin, and escaped the monster with a clever use of polymorph. But the creature is still out there, and it is angry. The group decided to lay anchor about a day's journey north of Mralgir at the site of the Battle of Jikal's Stand. A battle field that once held a mass graveyard, that was later defiled by the great skull mage Sackrym. We pick up now with the group trekking through the haunted lands on their way to deal with the rebellion in Mralgir.
