General Summary

Koin walks over and begins investigating her desk
  • Henry approaches the bed and the tigers begin growling at him
  • Koin doesn’t find anything of interest in the desk
  • Henry stands on a chair to get a better view of the tiger’s chamber, only finding regular tiger stuff, but both of their chains are attached to a hook that is nailed into the floor
  • Koin does the same, and notices that the tigers are not normal
  • In front of their mouths are two long teeth, indicating that they are saber tooth tigers
  • He also sees there is a small rectangle cut into the ground at the spot where the hooks are nailed in
  • Henry spends ten minutes casting unseen servant and commanding it to try and open the latch, but it is too weak to do so
  • Xodon takes out the rope of mending and hands it to Henry, who commands the unseen servant to attach the rope to the latch

  • Koin throws some sand into the fog, and ignites his sword but misses all his attacks
  • Henry notices the fearful guards splitting at the door as to avoid something
  • Reimun walks in and speaks at Henry before beginning to cast a sixth level spell
  • Henry begins casting a counterspell to stop it
  • Both spells go off at the same time and clash, but Reimun’s spell fizzles

  • Reimun casts mage armor on himself
  • Koin attacks and tries to trip, but fails
  • Xodon continues to run away, but is attacked by one of the guards
  • He runs out of the chamber from Henry’s spell, and becomes unaffected
  • He feels much better suddenly as he sees a man dressed in black with a silver mask on and kill one of the guards that was outside the chamber
  • The man walks in, swiftly moves past Reimun so he can’t see, and suddenly the man casts a fifth level spell and Reimun disappears
  • Henry throws a chromatic orb at a guard, but misses and it hits the window, breaking it
  • The one guard that became unaffected runs in to attack the man(Daemon), then Daemon jumps above him and casts the same spell, making him disappear
  • Daemon grabs all three of them and runs towards the window
  • One guard grapples onto Henry, another grapples to Xodon, but the shadow armor kills him
  • The last one shoots an arrow at Daemon, but it doesn’t do much
  • Reimun reappears into the room angrily, sees them all beginning to jump out the window, and he casts a fifth level spell, and an invisible force appears in front of the window stopping them from leaving
  • Koin runs up and hits Reimun for a bit of damage
  • Xodon runs to pick up his weapons
  • Henry stabs the guard grabbing him with his dagger and it dies from the curse(but Henry thinks he killed it because he stabbed it at the same time the curse kicked in)

  • Koin shoots a poison dart at him, and Reimun falls asleep
  • Xodon attacks the guard that just popped back into existence
  • Henry takes the opportunity to attack Reimun, but Daemon counterspells it and says they need him alive for info since they destroyed all the documents(Henry is not happy about this)
  • Daemon casts another fifth level spell and tells everyone to come to him
  • As the guards rush at them, they disappear and reappear in the middle of the platinum church
  • He rushes them to the basement and into a small room where he casts an eighth level spell, creating a small confined area out of the room
  • He bursts out angrily at the group, more specifically Henry
  • Places his thumb on Henry’s forehead and henry forgets how to cast a spell, but learns how to cast detect thoughts
  • Daemon tells him to take Koin’s truth serum and use it on Reimun and then cast the spell to find the info they need
  • Henry steps into the room and gives the truth serum to Reimun, and as he does so, Reimun wakes up and throws some of it up
  • He looks around angrily and at Daemon before Henry casts the spell
  • He looks in Reimun’s mind for the information on the documents in the box that blew up
  • He finds notes of proof of an alliance between Xiria and the armada, mostly bland and detail events from a few weeks ago, others talking about a captain of the armada bargaining with the queen for land and resources. Captain Harold wants to pillage the few remaining small cities in Aezraghn, give the land to Xiria, and in return Xiria will aid Dragol in demolishing the cities of Dragol and running the town of Amulet out of resources until they are forced to sign their land over
  • There is a very old piece of parchment written to queen fariya that reads: “Farya, you have to let go of this, come with me through the doorway, you know they're coming and you know what they'll do when they get here. He is dedicating his life to ending us. Why are you so adamant on staying? He told you when he cursed you that your only safety was on the other side. So please come with me. I'll be with Avenger, or as you so adamantly call it “hope.” Just please, don't let him win, he took our son, corrupted our daughter, and cursed you for death. His friend has offered to ferry us and Saran to the otherside, set us free, don't you want to be happy? Don't you want to avoid this war”.
  • Other information: The notes are mostly bland with meeting details and dates leading up to a few days ago consist of mostly details of the treaty. Harold is giving xiria an option to take over northern aezraghn and in return dragol will only purge resources of southern cities the queen replies back with a letter that dragol can travel freely around aezraghn in return xiria will not burn their ships slit their throats and fill their bodies with cornstalk and mail it back to dragol for their resources. The letters stop for a while. Then the attack on Thera happens. And Harold says he plans to take over as a king of Dragol and in order to do that he needs to have resources so he’ll attack fio, then move and gather resources, he’ll give all of aezraghn to the queen in return she aids him on siege of Onye aloura, taking the capital and then crusading over western dragol and will split territory with the king of amulet, with his power hell supply resources trade with aezraghn and make a gain
  • Once henry gets the information, he looks for any info on Daemon, but is shunted out
  • Daemon gestures him out and casts detect thoughts on Henry to get the information
  • He does so, but doesn’t stop once he has it all
  • Daemon begins viewing every part of his life, including the events at Thera
  • Henry sees the event play out as if he’s living it for the first time
  • As it reaches the point where Henry is holding the doll and singing the song, the doll in his bag begins humming the song as well
  • The link between him and Daemon stops
  • He looks at Henry, and there is a hard to read look on his face
  • He leans in and kisses Henry, and there are five rings surrounding him
  • Daemon erases the memories of that day, and Koin and Xodon look shocked at the series of events that just played out “I guess its a wizard thing”
