We All Super Broke Now, But We Got Cool Shit!
Session Date: May 22, 2020
When we arrived exhausted in Spur Harbor, the bartender at our hotel told us about an upcoming festival.
Xandria went to talk to Al. They discussed the memory he took from her and she touched the orb containing it to experience the memory. All Xandria saw of the memory were three scenes. An ancient, cackling goblin with white hair; a view looking out over a shadowy pond with rippling water; and, darkness with the only sound that of her racing heartbeat. Al told her to seek out Silfan Dantelous, an old elf friend in a similar line of work, at the Dredges that night to purchase three memory staves. Then Al and Xandria went to breakfast to catch up.
Raktosh woke up to having received a letter from Mulberry, telling him to find a ruby worth 75 gp and bring it to him at the Gnarly Gashers. Mulberry implied that he was in some trouble.
When Rak, Remi and Hal got to the Gnashers with the ruby, the place didn’t look open, so Hal let them in the back. Mulberry was very excited to see Rak! He’d had a craftsman make him an amulet with a neato power. The ruby Raktosh had brought was to pay for it. Allegedly it wqs a birthday present for Raktosh. At least Mulberry was amused.
Hal headed out to track down a contact. On his way, a kid tried to pickpocket him and Hal creeper-scared the shit out of him.
After losing track of the kid, however, Hal noticed his gold was gone, replaced with a note that said, “find us if you want your gold back.”
He found a hidden basement and passed through a series of tests until he arrived at a chest. Within was his gold, some of it at least, along with a menacing black mask.
Remi woke up to cake. As he finished it, a knock on his window revealed a paper sparrow fluttering outside. Remi followed it to a paper dog, which led him to a paper horse. The horse took him out of the city to a house. Everything was fine and totally normal.
Remi sent a message to everyone using his coin, much to their alarm.
The house was empty, save for a chair and a letter informing him that he needed to return the book he stole from the Arcanum and pay the late fee.
Remi had no plans to return the book, so promptly had a copy commissioned, before heading over to the Laughing Arsenal. He bought some boots, even though they kicked his ass.
At the Dredges that night, Xandria sought out Silfan.
On the way, Hal stopped to purchase a crossbow named Sasha.
Xandria bought the memory staves and Remi purchased a broken ring from Silfan.
Raktosh helped stop a thief and was offered the opportunity to buy a speedy, mist-cloak.
We watched the legit AF fireworks and called it a night.
The next day, is Xandria headed back to Al’s. He took small stones from two of the staves, turned them into earrings and pierced Xandria’s ears with them. He gave her the third stave and guided her on how to activate it. She explored the various powers that gave her.
After trying out his new ring, and finding it not to work, Remi decided to instead return his spell book back to the Arcanum and try to solicit their help and fixing the ring.
