Begin writing your story here...

We are off the kidnap the Duke of Neotoma.   We prepared with a circle magic cast. Giving Pending, and Alcar fly for an hour. As well as Alcar being hasted for an hour.   While flying through the city Pen flew down and bought a news paper. We found out that the bombing of the navy drove a wedge between Nemotoma and Dani. There is an international man hunt looking for us. It is also rumoured that the North Sea Emperor is dead. We managed to sneak into the place and quietly dispatch anyone who saw us.   AFter being spotted by some magical paintings we went loud and tried to search for the duke with speed rather than stealth.   We bashed our way through various locked doors mostly ignoring guards now the alarm has been raised. We found a hidden staircase behind a magical door. Behind was a staircase full of necrotic gas. At the bottom was the long corridor which seemed to go on forever. The Duke turned out to be a powerful warlock or similar. Rather than him being under her control she's in his. The Duke is the Vessel of Nacryos an ex god, current deamon.   After a bloody battle during which Dimsung spent most of the battle unconcious. Durin the course of the fight Pending was enchanted and spent most of it confused attacking me! The darn idiot! Fuln used up all of his spells, Alcar was unconcious, in the end we had now choice but to surrender.   After some explination and conversation with the deamon, we explained how Medecenin's goals are risking the fabric of reality and will destroy his plans. This turned out to be new information to him. Due in part to this, and his thoughts that we might be usefull he let us live but imprioned us. After surrendering an anti magic zone came online nullifying my armour entierly meaning I had to be carried to cells.   While this is happening I later found out that Zerkon is engaged on a fight for his life with the Red Supremecy on the airship.   We are mancaled and tided to chairs. In the room is torturer who waits until the duke returns.    

Gok noticed a stamp on the bombs showing Groathammer's stamp indicating that his company has made the bombs.   We decidecd to tell Medecnin that we surrender to delay. We managed to get her to delay until the next dawn. Enough time to potentially kidnap her husband.   On returnign to winterholt we had a meeting the leaders in a circle of truth to make sure we are aligned.   We interrigated Cricket   leader of shadow blades Velenar Drak'thar is running it form the Vendish marsh and his organisation is called the Umbaral Syndicate. Its the theft, extaution, smuggling arm of the Shadow blades. They operate in the Secotia and the sultinate. They have large precence in the trading cities. He never forgave Cricket for betraying him.   During the night Fuln was visted by Holadie who tried to talk him into giving up Ruffstrom and Adam Cher.   We teleported to Nemotoma at the end of the session

oh meeting the leaders we made a plan To Kill leaders of the peasants rebellions at the meeting. While talking Zerkon got a message from a scout working for the Black Quill who told us to follow.   He told us that the thing Medecnin wants to used to shield her city might have previously destroyed one, or disappeared one. Using it could result in a Cataclism.   Dimsum got scried upon during the meeting which made the guards react.   Cricket turned on us and we were ambushed. A furious battle ensued. During which Cricket was slain. The enemy tried to run with his body but were stopped.   After the battle we revived him to extract information.   A letter found on 4 leaf's corpse from Medecnin said she was threatening people close to use. Otherwise they would kill people close to use. In Gok's case his mentor Rukka.

We continued the fight, stopping a cavalry charge, routing their troops and capturing their supply wagon.   After the fight Zerkon turned up. He told us the peasnt rebellion is bigger than we thought. We decided to link up with the mercenary comanders and decide what to do next.

After the attack and destruction of the institute we escaped to Fuln's base and spent there night there. I left my materials and glom pieces in the workshop area. We also found Sylivia and the frog kid.   We teleported to the barrow in Althena for gok to stab himself.   A demon appeared behind me, but nobody else could see him. He appeared looking like a Balrog, and turned into a voluptuous goblin woman. He was trapped there by Rivermar (a powerful mage that opposed the entity). He knows about the entity. Rivermar calculated when the entity would turn up (within a few hundred years). He had a powerful spell that can stop the entity.   We need to kill three world leaders in order to get the spell. The ritual of expulsion. It will reattach the latice of planar barriers Medechnin counts.   We teleported back to the airship, Flew to winterquarry and joined the battle. The enemy was quickly routed after their commadner and wizard were killed

As we begin Gok has lost his magic, his casting focus, his armor. He is now riding on the back of the camel man.   After pressing on we found a strange magical/wild magic portal thing. We decided not to go through it, and then entered a room filled with 6 legged spider like creatures. Gok gets downed during the fight but manages to get back up.   In the room we found reserch papers, lockers and rock on a chain.   We had to cross over a portal using a contraption of ropes. While seperated by a pit we were attacked by fire creatures.   Found an object with MMD. It is an old motto "machines make desteny" There is an activation phrase/word. Need attunment. "Stab yourself with the disk and bind the demond"   Dimsum fond the elemental essence but it appears to be guarded by mommies. Gok is very injured after being without magic.   (session ended and resumed later) After the battle Dimsum was unable to cast the marble into the pit. Aleric cast hold person on him. Pen throws the marble into the pit, picks up Dimsun and runs.   I cast shatter and destroyed the marble triggering the explosion. Me and Ful jumped on Alcar and I hasted him so he's running at 18mph. As we dashed past the guard at the entrance he knew we ran past, he picked up a gun then the building collapsed.   There was a confruntation with Alcar as he tried to hand on to some elemental essance for the cammel cult. Fortunitly we talked him down.   We got the necromancer and teleported to Alerics base to rest. During the rest I attuned to the MMR Device and it repeated the message. Gok—listen! No time. It’s me—you. Everything’s breaking. The only way—stab yerself with the disc. Bind the demon. He’ll show you how to end it. Do it, or it all falls apart. Don’t wait. Don’t—"

We start about to infiltrate the Academy. Gok used his new magic eye spell to scout some of the Academy unfortunately it passed over a zone which dispelled it. It gave us some useful information such as the guards just inside the door.   To distract them Dimsum snuck up the building, he summoned bats from his hat, which flew around inside distracting the guards. While invisible we snuck through the unlocked door.   We found Adam Cher and watched him cast speak with dead on a murdered interplaner resercher. We persuaded him to revive Ruff, he told us to meet him in his house in Streo Skana. He said he was close to breakthrough, Inside Mt Celgan there is a ruin called Ivrammusha. A found of archiological knowlege. There are stories about it being the resting place of first Emperor of Magnian. Burried with him will be great wealth and fame. He promised to come with us if we help him persue his goal of finding the Emperor's grave.   We snuck deeper into the facility and faught two invisible horrors. Gok stepped through a magic trap and lost all his power, his armour stopped working. He is now mostly naked armed with a gun riding on Alkars back!

We returned from the ship and decided to stash the airship in the mountains while we go to the institute to follow up on the mission there.   We recruit Aleric and go to the happy place. Cantrell tells us to kill Helandie and trust him. Helandie apparents wants to destroy the realms so he can access the elemental chaos. Cantrel submitted to zone of truth of Heladie did not. Gok is inclined to believe Cantrell.   Zerkon fucked off.   Need to find a spell to kill entity. Need to kill/trick heladie. And destroy elemental essence.

We looted the vault and "boss room" we found a small Portune of nearly 48k of gold. This accounted for 9566 each. We found an amazing weapons the Gilded Dragon, a firearm with an underbarrled laucher.   While Pen and Alkar loot the rest of the group returns to the surface to see the damage to the castle.   On returning to the surface the outer wall of the castle was collapsed. Enemy soldiers were flooding through the gap in the walls. Several of us with range stayed on the roof shooting. It was however too dark to see well leaving us with no option but to climb down. After firing Gok decided to climb down from the room and manged to spectacularly fall flat on his face from the roof the keep. (because he used athletics instead of acrobatics)   After a volley of grenades the resistance was mostly ended. We lost half of the PFI (poor fucking infantry). There were renforcements on the horizon however they fell back allowing us to get everyone into the ship and escape.   While on the ship on the way back Holadie messaged Pen to tell us to meet with him.   After we returned to base we heardMedecnins forces had taken the Tree House from the rebals but may have signed a truce with the peastants/rebals/red suprecity, our forces are heading North.   After resting and leveling up, we flew to meet Heladie in a ruined village. He believes the "the rot is spreading in Dimsum". He promised us an explination.   He explained:

He used to be an apprentice of Godfrey Cantel

Godfrey was infected with the same sort of corruption of Dimsum

Heladie wants to sever dimsum cleanly from the plainar key. But chose not to kill him

During the Ringward ascent it seems likely the walls of the plains will break open, or weaken

Found out Zerkon started the peasants republic

Zerkon needs to retrive an item from a place of power under the HQ of the red supremecy.

Next steps:

need Cantrels way of traveling between planes, his ritual spell.

revive Ruff Adam Cher

cronomancer could be useful to age?

place and shatter new marbel in the institute

We plan to go to the insitute first then, we continue fighting the war.

We begin gathered in the courtyard. Faced with a strong door we eventually managed to penetrate it. Inside we were met to with resistance which was quickly over come.   An agent made a run for it and dropped the chandeliers causing an oil fire. I spread/pushed the fire away from me to open the route.   We found out the piles supporting the castle were trapped to explode with magic. We managed to defuse two of them.   Then there was a hidden room. On entering the door slammed closed and we were treapped. Medecnan appeared and gloated at us. Then poison leaked from the floors. And two large contruct like creatures appeared. We BEARLY got out Dinsum was downed and nearlly died. As the minotaur. We had to destroy the door with a mineing charge in order to escape from the gas. Then we feld. I am nearly out of spells and the half the castle seems to have collapsed.

No truce!   We were given a smattering of named characters, and some basic soldiers. Our job is going to be to retake Narhold.   Not A lot to write for this one. We dropped our 20 men with feather fall from the airship. We teleported down with the help Josir, Cricket, Thora and Venar.   Zerkon and Dimsum split off on the broom to shut the portcullis. The rest of us fought in a bloody melee on the courtyard. Despite a lot of enemies being thrown against us they posed little challenage. I got away with bearly a scratch! Medecenin really needs to up her game!   At the end of the session we had taken the courtyard but still had to take the keep.   Nobody can stand our way! NOBODY!

Squiral is not paying attention and just working.   When traveling to Winterholt we did not find Medecen's army. Got there to find an allied army.   Used feather fall to get down from the airship. Gok did a skilled superhero landing, the soldiers applauded.   Met with Cricket who is planning to sell his Mercenary company and some representatives of other captains.   Selina Nafaso (human) of the Stormwatchers - also main spokesperson. Yoel Idris (human) of the Bloodsworn Thaldir Stonehelm (dwarf) of the Iron Teeth Draxus of Thali (dragonborn) of the Ironclad Cricket Elmwhil (Drow) of the Wayward Sons (Has two umbrella servants) Uriah (Goliath) of the Bonebreakers   We updated our political map with some of the deposition of the nearby political companies.   Zerkon used Full Metal Jackass to know that Ruff was being spied upon, probably by Holandi but we stopped talking incase it was someone working for Medecen.   During the Meeting the Meelemen were dispanded there territory was already occupied. And what is left of their company were given to us.   We Decided to Retake Narhold. Then a envoy from Medecen turned up asking for a truce. He needs to die beacuse he would have seen the rescued captains.

The session starts with us back on the airship with Sherif, Captain Josir Dalkarn head of The Meele Men, As well as Captain Dovren Maelthrix lead of The Expendables. Heading toward the siege that needs lifting. We found orders on the body of a security agent which I put bellow:   "Order one: The individuals currently held in our custody are to be questioned thoroughly regarding their activities, associates, and any knowledge of subversive actions against our interests and my person. Extract all pertinent intelligence.   Be gentle with Dovren Maelthrix, who we might still sway to our cause.   Order two: John of Riaym is to be given unrestricted access to install and calibrate The Bulwark from Danaï. He shall activate it upon my command, after the conclusion of operations in Narrholt,   Order three: The Bulwark requires constant attention and uninterrupted concentration to remain active. John of Riaym is to be afforded all necessary protection, provisions, and discretion to perform his duty without interference. His safety is paramount—without him, the device will fail.   You will treat these directives with the utmost secrecy. Disclose details only on my direct authority. Any lapse in security will be dealt with accordingly."   Send message to Black Quill: "Medecin Wizzard John of Riaym, essential to install Bulwark, Can find location?" Response: Cripple medecin forces take airship to Carvernoso Joya, will be back in contact about bulwark"   Ariea has sent troops under Baron Corvel Garnick. Mostly peasnt levies but some have experiance.   One of the captains told us Medecin now knows about a secret passage into Narhold.   Pending got cursed to talk like Wriggler, Alcar dispelled the curse after rearranging his spells   Lots of yapping that Gok doesn't really care about. He just anxious to get to the combat.   On Reaching Aruhaven Medecnin has taken the castle, there is some artillery left behind.   The artillery turned out to be a trap, and their were soldiers waiting consealed in the trench. Zerkon flew down to retrieve teleport items. Despite being invsible the broom he was on, was not. A shot was taken at him, but went wide.

Bombed Three ships of the fleet gathered to attack Bravia. There were secondary explosions suggesting the ships were destroyed. Some fire did spread to other ships but clouds covered the fires. Assumed to be wizzards summoning rain to put out the fires. Or fog to cover the ships.   Planned a raid on the Enemy Bastion in Neamtoma the enemies capital. Planning to leave the tremor bomb behind.   Found out airships are fuled by Caelum Gas which is naturally occuring and needs to be reffined. Some is refined in the Sultenate.   Teleported onto Bastion walls, two of the party teleported into a "room" where the stairs down is. After teleporting in we destroyed an Agent and Wizzard. Several people were yeeted off the walls. We then ran down the stairs, found and released a prisoner who told us that the captain of a mercenary band was being held in the prison proper. We rushed toward to the prison. (amusing event where gok runs in did no damage, the gloated, then the rest of the party ran in and killed them all).   Inside the dungeon there was a huge fire Ginasie. Gok teleported him into an empty cell, it was great moment. But he had the keys on him... and just opened the door again. Still a cool moment in the dungeon we found Captain Sestian Varr - leader of the Red Sash old mercenary captain. There is a mintar Captain Josir Dalkarn head of The Meele Men, As well as Captain Dovren Maelthrix lead of The Expendables. We teleported out with the leaders and the guy rescued from the prison earlier. We sent back a Tremor Core bomb to cause an earth quake under the Bastion into the Jail. We have no idea how effective it was.
