Session Report 026: In Which we Search the Stacks For All Manner of Exposition

Wherein Exposition Occurs

  Speaking to Sariel of Morgau - Master of Star and Shadow Magic, professor-at-large and not in hiding And Vedran hides from librarians to avoid his past! The party hands him the Time Ring previously owned by Cagoth'ze and he will use it to create an exloding wave of time whose waves will collapse the rift in time.   He gives the heroes an old book, chapbook of cure moderate wounds, meant to protect travelers to the Shadow Realm from raids (25 scrolls that heal 2d8+4). Time can travel in odd directions in the any of the Fey lands so sometimes natural healing doesn't work exactly as planned.   Sluah, fey spirits of unclaimed souls, have existed in Zobeck for ages. One particular one named Knuckletooth may know about the Lych Gate and more about the necessary ritual needed to open it. It is said she is kind to children and animals, but evil towards all others.   Exploring the library for information, the party gathers all the information they can about their enemies. Learning of their weird courtly mannerisms and about dualing seasons.   Setting up an escape route through the river using Goldbiter's service, the heroes plan for an escape back to Redtower.   Finding Winter's Kiss, the party entreats the hidden ambassador Glaninin Thelamandrine with Lumi being queen and extracting her revenge on Vedran for perceived slights against Skink. How will diplomacy go now that Vedran, ever talkative, has been reduced to a lesser role?
