Session 4

We head off in search of the missing alcohol.

While tracking the fey, we come across a flower ring in a clearing. In the center of the ring is a human hand with golden rings sticking out of the ground. Porcelain gives the hand a high five and is pulled underground. Porcelain manages to fight it off and we hurry away.

After another day’s travel, we find an elf selling items. He sells a powerful sword, a ring of forgery, a pocket watch that makes you invisible, and an un-spillable beer stein. We buy all the items, and the elf hurries off. Alek tests the pocket watch, and it works; but it makes a loud ringing noise. The noise doesn’t stop so Skyla crushes the watch. Skyla tests the beer stein and learns that no liquid can leave the cup. We have been ripped off.

The next day a swarm of lady bugs shows Alek a vison of a fountain on a lake in the forest being guarded by a giant. We decide to take a detour to see this fountain and its treasure. On the way, a patch of flowers causes us to fall into a deep slumber and we lose a day of travel. At the lake, we try to sneak around the giant and are forced into battle. The giant is deaf but can read lips and tells us to leave or he will kill us. The party runs and Alek sees him mouth “thank you” as we leave.

We go back to tracking the fey and cross a toll bridge without issue.

We find the missing alcohol at a fey party in the woods. Alek tries to find the person in charge while Skyla and Porcelain join the party. Alek gets into a fight with a centaur who says they aren’t on the list and Skyla casts a spell to make them believe we are allowed at the party. We cut our losses and take some empty bottles back to show Nora. After some fighting to get a very drunk Skyla and Porcelain to leave, the group heads on the road again.

Before we get to town, we rough ourselves up to make it look like we have been in a fight. After seeing us and the empty bottles, Nora agrees to pay us half of the agreed amount.

We go to Dayin’s and get him to inspect the items we bought from the elf in the woods. Alek puts on the ring and takes damage when he tries to forge a document. He then learns he can not remove the ring. Porcelain tests the sword, which is attuned to giants, but nothing happens. Dayin also says he met with Porcelain’s father and has a gift of 300g from him. The necklace is not ready yet, so we decide to take a mission at the library.

Session Three

We make our way through the sewers and into the building. We open one door and it triggers an alarm. Two guards who were on duty ask our business. Alek almost has them convinced we are building inspectors when Porcelain panics and attacks. In the fight, the two guards are killed. We find keys on the guards and shut the alarm off.

We search another room and find a chest with gold and gems inside. We head upstairs to a room with three doors and three suites of armor near the doors. We check for traps and open the door to the guard sleeping quarters. Inside the sleeping quarters we find gold and a spell scroll for dispel magic.

We check the other doors and advance to the 3rd floor; which is a study filled with potions and items. We search the room and find a key under the floor boards. The key opens a drawer on the desk and inside we find a combination to a safe. The safe has the gem spell components that we need. We also take some potions and gold that we find. We leave some fake potions in place of the real ones that we take and quickly leave.

We go back to Dayin’s and Skyla tells us the reason she is having this item made. She wants a protection item made to protect her sister Dawn from their father. Dayin and Skyla also tell us that they are in a relationship and that Dayin saved Skyla from her father. The necklace will take a couple of days to prepare, so we decided to go to sleep and check the job postings in the morning.

On the way to the job board in the morning, we meet Ricky again and buy some more items. We decide to accept a job at the Melting Gate Tavern from Nora about fey who have been stealing alcohol.

Session Two

We begin our long journey to Al Herman:

On the first day of travel, we find a shrine covered in dried animal blood to a forgotten deity.

The next day we come across a dryad being chased by a man with an axe. We try to break the fight up verbally but get into a physical fight with the man. We manage to knock the man out and find a badge on him stating that he is a guard for the city we are visiting. The dryad comes out of the woods with the man’s belongings, gives us some gold and then runs away.

The next day we save a halfling girl from some hobgoblins.

On the fourth day we see two hooded men dragging a third person in chains.

On the fifth day, a drunken paladin on a horse tries to cut off our cart and edge us off the road. Alek shoots an arrow and spooks the man’s horse. The horse kicks the man off and we ride away.

The next day we meet a traveling merchant and buy some supplies. We arrive in the city on the seventh day.

We are stopped at the city gates by the drunken paladin and his friends. We manage to convince them that we are not the same people from a couple days ago and enter the city without further issues.

Skyla takes us to the Whisper vale Manor to meet the half eleven alchemist Dayin. A goblin butler greets Skyla warmly and guides us inside. Dayin seems upset that Skyla is in the city and Skyla gives Dayin a note. Dayin says that to complete Skyla’s request we would have to break into the Frost Vex via the sewers and steal some gems. Dayin asks to speak with Skyla alone and Skyla tells us to explore the city before the mission tonight. Alek askes to use the washroom as an excuse to overhear Dayin and Skyla’s conversation. The conversation is mostly about Skyla’s time in Nukar.

Porcelain and Alek head to a tavern and Alek buys them friendship bracelets. They go to the Ivory Unicorn tavern and play beer pong. We return to the manor drunk and Dayin gives Alek a potion to sober up. Dayin is very upset with us and we journey into the sewers.
