Curse of Strahd - Session 2 - 10/31/2020
We are on the third floor of the Durst home still looking for young Walter, the younger brother of Rosa and Thorn. Kyana suggested that Rinn message Halder and suggest he try to touch the children to see if they are real. Since the woman vanished, maybe the children aren't real either. As Halder casually makes his way toward the boy, attempting to console him, the boy shrinks back but Halder is still able to touch him. Rinn keeps the message spell open and as Halder responds, he learns that the child does feel real. Rinn tells him about the vanishing lady so he understands what is happening and why we were concerned about the children even being real. Assuming everything there is okay, we press on.
Misty opens the door across from the main bedroom we entered last session and we find another bedroom. As Rinn makes his way across the room, he hears some scratching from under the bed. Misty makes her way into the room but doesn't appear to notice the sound that has Rinn's attention. Rinn says something to everyone about it and then crouches to peer under the bed. He sees something and it seems to be a dog. He attempts to get the dog to come out but as it starts out, it gets scared and returns under the bed. Rinn tosses some meat and bits of bread to the dog which devours it quickly, obviously being very hungry. Next, Rinn checks the balcony which is clear. Rinn moves to another door in the room and opens it, finding nothing but a jewelry box in the closet and a mirror on the door. He doesn't open it. Taking the items of value is okay in most cases but he wouldn't want to rob these people he has came to help. He closes the closet door. never mentioning the jewelry box to the others.
They leave that room and move to a room across the hall which is a bathroom full of mold and mildew. It's a foul odor and assaults your senses.
Dain realizes they skipped a door up front and opens it to find a room full of moldy towels and sheets and such.
Misty went back to the front bedroom looking for secret doors or anything we may have missed. Rinn notices that these seems to be some space that we haven't been able t enter as the appears to be no way in. Misty and I search it from two different sides and determine nothing and decide to search to opposite sides and finally find the secret doors, one in thje bedroom and another in the hall leading to the same space. Rinn leads the party up the stairs and finds a door. He opens the door and finds even more rooms. There seems to be an area of that is
childs room, complete with two beds, chest of toys, a doll house, and two skeletons of two children dress much like Rosa and Thorn, complete with a worn out version of the doll that Thorn was carrying. very disturbing. Kyana suggested that Rinn message Halder and suggest he try to touch the children to see if they are real. The little boy shirinks back but he is able to touch him and he feels real to the touch. Rinn warns him about what he has found.
