18 There and Back Again

Previous Session: 17 Underking Schmunderking || Next Session: 18 There and Back Again

Heading back to Wayrest

We head back to Wayrest so that we can head down into yet another Tomb to go find some dust so that we can then go to the final resting place of Lysandus so that we can maybe, just maybe, speak with him.

But first, we need to talk to Princess Elysana and actually receive our payment from her, instead of having the destination party pay us.

Casts and Leanne get in a bit of a disagreement about how to handle that situation, and Casts suggests that Leanne try it her way first (but makes no effort to do so).

Turns out that Elysana was not present at the castle, she's out doing wedding preparation, but that Morgiah is near and also doing wedding preparation.

We meet up with Princess Morgiah and catch up with her, and she mentions that Elysana would be back at the end of the month. When Morgiah hears that we'd like to get her a suitable wedding gift, she asks for the Totem of Tiber Septem as her gift.

 Quest
Go get the Totem for Morgiah.

Anyhow, after all of that, we head to Orsinium

Heading to Orsinium

 Challenge
Make it there (survival)

Casts, Terfir, Kihra success
Leanne - Failure

Once we get there, we notice they're setting up banners for some sort of festival or celebration.

We get an audience with Gortwog, and he agrees to give us the dust if we give him the totem of Tiber Septum instead of all of the others.

Terfir Lif, lying, tells him that we'd give him the Totem and then he hands over the dust. Medora then gets ready to work on her concoction.

 Skill Use
Leanne and Casts help Medora with Alchemy (already received the skill ups)

After this, we take our session's rest.

Heading to the Hidden Tomb

We head in the direction of the tomb.

 Challenge
Get Us there!

Terfir and Kihra make Survival checks and Succeed in getting us there.

We get to the tomb, and discover very quickly that the door is sealed by magic, so Leanne gets out her flask and dispel magic spell in order to get the door open.

 Skill Use
Leanne Alteration

Terfir uses Desctruction to get the iron door

We use Athletics to descend into the darkness, and start heading through the tomb. Casts uses Illusion to allow anyone in here to be able to see in the darkness with Darkvision.

There are undead down in the tomb, who are largely just being stationary.

Kihra scouts it out, and finds out that it's a Wraith. Kihra remarks that she should have bought at tazer.

 Fight
Fight the Wraith!

Terfir is attacked by the Wraith, and successfully deflects it.
Terfir has the Storm Atranoch blast lightning at it - Miss
Leanne attacks the Wraith and destroys it.

We head further into the tombs, and find an underground... village, or town, or something, and there are more undead down here.

We try to sneak past some of the undead, but Terfir steps on a skull and alerts the skeletons.

 Fight

Leanne kills a skeleton first.
Terfir uses some fire to brrrbrrbrr
Casts uses backstab to get rid of another skieleton.
Kihra uses the Claws
The Skeleton attacks Casts, but Terfir jumps in the way of the lightning.
Kihra attacks with the claws - success
Casts Stabs with [One Handed] - success
Leanne finishes it off

We continue to head in so that we can find Lysandus's body. We come across another door which is enchanted that Leanne needs to disenchant.

It finally looks like there's a crypt sitting on top of the pedestal, which we determine is likely to be trapped.

 Skill Use
Casts Uses perception to find no traps.

We chat with Lysandus's ghost for a bit and he reveals that Lord Woodborne was the man who betrayed him!!

Time to take that guy down. (Next Session)
