Session Summary
Session 41 – Return to Krezk
We began with searching the room with the statue of Fenrir in it. We found some gems and gold around the statue and then Dain proceeded to chop the statue up into tiny pieces. Rinn looked in the pool of water. It was very clean and clear water. He could only barely see the bottom with his dark vision and decided to strip himself of anything that would weigh him down and slide into the pool of water to have a look around. He swam down and found nothing but that the chamber was much bigger than it appeared from above.
He climbed back out and before he could begin drying himself off, Misty offered him a potion, a vial of orange liquid. When asked, she said, just drink it. It will help you. He finally pushed through his concerns and drinking it only to become dry. Well, that’s a handy trick. I’ve never heard of potions of drying. He gathered his stuff and the group started back out of the caves going through the path untraveled at this point. They were cautious and Haldar led the way as these were conditions that were perfectly suited to his skills. It took a while and we found many other alcoves with belongings in them but only about 65gps worth of gems and coin.
We made our way to Krezk and this time, though we had to submit to the werewolf test, everyone seemed very happy to find that we had dispatched the vile White Claw. We presented the heads of all of the werewolves that we killed to the Barron and though they were finally able to see who the people were behind the the killings, Dain wasn’t as tactful as he should have been. He dumped them out on the Barons front yard. Snoggly brought up the caster that we had run into town there, and remarked of how he looked much like the abominations at the Abby. He suggested that we go to the Abby and get some answers. The Baron agreed that we should seek out the Abbott and see if he knows who this is.
We re-bagged the heads and headed off to the Abby. Dain knocked on the door and entered in the same fluid motion, letting Otto and Zygfrek know that we wished to see the Abbott. The Baron’s presence only strengthened his request. They fetched the Abbott and when he came out, Dain held out the head of the caster for him to see. Apparently it really upset them. Turns out that he was someone that considered a close friend and seeing him this way was very disturbing. Snoggly began grilling the Abbott on this person and why he was working with Whiteclaw. The Abbott had no answers. They conversation ultimately led to the Baron insisting on an official inquiry into the Abbott, Abby, and their connection with White Claw, if any.
During the conversation, Misty slipped off to do a little of her own investigating. She dropped back to the building that housed the golem and Esmrelda and climbed up and checked into the rooms up there. I don’t have the recording to fall back on here so all I remember from this point is that she made her way across the the main building where and snuck in the front door. She saw Vasilka in the main chamber at the table and managed not to be seen by her. Hearing music coming from upstairs, she made her was up the stairs and stopped at the top seeing one of the misfits playing a viola. It sounded quite beautiful even though the creature playing it had a bow in it’s crab claw that it was playing with.
Also in the room is, what looks like a body. She could get any closer without being spotted. She came back down and snuck back out. Making her way around the group, she got Rinn’s attention and told him what she saw. He started to message Snoggly about it but he and the Baron were in a pretty serious discussion with the Abbott. We never pursued that. Snoggly is supposed to be back in a week to attend the hearing and give testimony. We left the Abby and went to eat and the restaurant in town whos name I forget. We had a fine meal and the server was attentive and there was a conversation but I don’t remember the full gist of it.
Rinn and Zanfyr made their was to Gregory’s shop to see about having more weapons silverside. Rinn, a second rapier and a couple of scimitars. He also had his shield repaired. Zanfyr also had a weapon Ed silver field. Rinn, messaged Dain to let him know and suggest that he might have his equipment looked at. A moment or so later, Dain showed up and left his armor to be worked on. The three of them made their way to the Swyft’s Taylor shop. Zanfyr left his studded leather armor to be repaired.
Dain, being the only dwarf they’ve ever seen, became quite the hit. It seems the owner would like to adorn Dain’s beard with metallic beads and gems. Dain was, at first, not interested but as the owner explained it a little more, and promised to use metallic beads and gems, that he relented to letting him draw something up. Dain will be back in the morning to see if this is something he might want to do.
That’s all I remember from the previous session.
