# WWM Tuesday Party Log (Session 16+)


Session 16 [of ITGH's perspective] (28-04-2020) [PushingDaisies Missing, FishyFishyFishy Gone]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We awake to a damp morning from the showers in the evening. Robin gets hit with a drop and shakes it off.
A Yuan-ti calls for Yazsas, saying it is time for the hunt. Robin cracks a joke in poor taste and the party doesn't seem to like that.
The Elder wants to speak with Yazsas. There is a pile to one side with armour and impressive weapons in some sort of loot pile.
Yazsas is told that there are rumours of him being untrustworthy despite his initiation. He is offered a Trial by Combat to prove it.
There is an Aasimar that seems to be suggestively be dressed in ceremonial beads and jewelry behind the combatant. This is apparently his bethrothed.
They plan to meet in the arena today.
Elysian, the bethrothed makes eye-contact with Yazsas and seems to glance towards the pile of loot.

The rest of the party hears a yell about an execution in the arena. The rest of the party heads to watch.
Robin is told he is in the splash zone as he cheers for Yazsas.
Elysian (alabaster skin, white hair, gold eyes.) is chained by the neck and is placed in a safe spot not far from the Yuan-ti champion.
The fight starts and Bari cheers on Yazsas to inspire him. The snake strikes out at Yazsas and Yazsas blinds him magically.
Yazsas tries to sneak around while he is blind. The massive Yuan-ti starts being able to see again just as he gets high by the lightning Yazsas calls.
The Abomination manages to dodge away from some of the damage, but it doesn't seem to effect him much.
Robin effects the large Yuan-ti with Panache and he misses Yazsas with both his swings.
Lightning strikes the same spot twice, charring the big guy a little bit more. The Abomination misses 3 times.
Yazsas tries to banish the Giant Snake, but fails. 
Robin spots that Elysian doesn't want to be there and is tense and uneasy. She seems to be planning something as they lock eyes.
She mouthes the word help to him as Robin points this out to Bari. Robin says he has a plan and moves closer around the arena.
Yazsas lands a strike with his Shortsword of Khord and we all feel a tingle as we are healed a bit.

As Yazsas and the big fucker fight, Robin convices Bari of a plan to unlock the shackles of Elysian.
There is a Yuan-ti with a crossbow near Elysian, guarding her.
Bari sets up a distraction for Robin and inspires him for his plan.
Bari causes an Earth Tremor near the opposite side of the Arena and Robin springs into action, using his Mage-Hand to unlock the shackles around her neck.
Everyone else paid no attention, and the crossbow Yuan-ti was disctracted by the tremors.

Yazsas hits the Big Yuan-ti with a Thunderwave and then heals himself. 
Their fight continues.
Robin fakes falling into the pit drunk and is missed as the crossbow wielding Yuan-ti shoots at him and misses.
Robin takes all of the attention as Elysian casts Dimension Door to go to the Crucible and get her stuff.
The chains drop where she laid (they prevented her from casting magic).
Robin tells Bari and Milo to find her, and Bari puts a small OK on the dirt near him to signal she got the idea.
Bari decides to sneak off to explore the Yuan-ti temple instead.
Robin stabs the Abomination in the back and then stumbles off to the side.
Milo feels a blade in his back as he sits at the arena. He just starts reading his book again.
As Yazsas is grabbled by the Giant Yuan-ti tail, he casts Shatter on the larged Melon of a head on this godlike snake of war.
Robin and Yazsas are coated in blood and both Milo and his Book get hit in the splash zone of the exploding head.

The Elder confronts Elysian saying the fight was going poorly and she had been unlocked by her husband at the start of the fight.
This Elder Yuan-ti believes her, but won't let her leave with the loot so she Dominates him as Bari enters looking for Snake Toilets.
Elysian commands him to let her leave with the loot and not follow the party.
Bari and Elysian pick up all of the Equipment and leave the room.

The Yuan-ti start throwing spears at Robin and Yazsas, and the man behind Milo move to attack.
Elysian calls out with Prestidigitation that the Elder has told everyone to step down as her and Bari leave The Crucible, but the Yuan-ti are not convinced.
As Yazsas's lightning comes down killing many, Elysian calls out again, and the Yuan-ti are intimidated.

The Aasimar introduces herself as Lady Elysian Moon. She says we can call her Elyia. She suddenly feels up the snake and he is healed a bit as some light glows.
Elysian slaps the cat as he is arguing with Milo and then scratches behind his ears, and he doesn't seem amused.

As we leave, Elysian pops up a Magnificent Mansion and we enter and take a rest.
The tower is 100'x100' and it is decked out royally on the inside and has elegant touches with marble inlaid flooring.
Bari asks to stay on the roof instead, and sets up a basic tent there.
Elysian offers "womanly comforts" to anyone interested.
We take a long rest.

The party awakes and dines in the mini-tavern that is in the Magnificent Mansion. There are spectral servants all around.

Session 17 [of ITGH's perspective] (12-05-2020) [PushingDaisies Missing]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Elysian and Bari get everyone introduced. Elysian notices Bari's badge and recognizes it as Captain of the Watch.
As they discuss the badge, there is a knock on the Mansion door. As Elysian opens the door, Rafa appears again.
Robin runs away and Rafa is pissed. He is wondering where we are with the meeting with the Council of the Metallic Dragons.
We offer to keep Robin safe. Yazsas still calls out Rafa for not being good family to Robin and caring now.
She is trying to put the moves on Rafa, but he hears deal and thinks it's all business time now. Elysian tries to make a deal.
Rafa is not DTF. The deal was being negotiated and Elysian says she will let us all be slain if Robin is harmed. Bari says no and runs off.
**The final deal is struck. If Robin is harmed, Raphael will come for Elysian.**
Elysian is given some strange dust and Raphael leaves. She finds a note within that says **"Eat Me"** in reference to the dust.
Robin eats some thinking that Rafa wouldn't hurt him. He finds it tastes a bit like ash and is quite chalky. Nothing seems to happen.
Yazsas eats the note that says "Eat Me". He feels his conciousness slip for a second and come back. It seems like the amount of dust on the note was the cause of the oddity.
Bari asks for the powder as she already knew she was being tracked by the badge. She exclaims that she knows how powder works from Bard's College and then rails it like a line of coke.
Bari suddenly feels like something yanks her conciousness away, **but the curse from the sword seems to also be ripped away as well**. Bari hears Rafa in her head.
Bari talks out loud to the voice in her head. Elysian tells Rafa to fuck off and Bari passes it along and returns with Rafa's fuck-off as well.

Everyone leaves the mansion and Elysian collapses it. Milo tracks for us and sees 20 sets of prints and some strange creator that he doesn't see from the tracks. The creator seems large.
Bari and Elysian see the glint and sparkle of something off in the trees. It might be the glint off some glass like a looking glass.
Bari starts waving towards the Glint. Robin tries to tackle Bari by the legs and manages to knock her prone.
As Bari and Robin hit the dirt, an arrow flies where Bari just was.
Bari responds accidentally with Synaptic Static right where the shot came from. His brain matter is leaking out of his eye sockets when Robin finds him.
This is a Dragon Cult scout. 
Elysian asks Robin to loot the body. He had a big crossbow with a scope on it. Bari suggests robin puts the scope on his sword so he can see them coming and line up his stabs.

---

Scout Loot

- 20 Bolts
- Dagger - **Taken By:** Robin
- Shortsword
- Strange Crossbow (With a Scope) - **Taken By:** Bari (Just the scope)
- Map - **Taken By:** Robin

---

The map shows the catacombs and has patrols marked.  There is a note in the margins saying that the creature is caged in the back of the dungeon.
Elysian offers up 2 plans, sneaking into the catacombs or getting captured herself or trying to join the cult. Bari says to ambush the patrols.
They decide to ambush one patrol and get more uniforms. Bari and Milo will distract (bard and her bodyguard).

Bari walks out in her costume and does some knife juggling to distract the guards. Bari asks Milo to be the hype-man.
Yazsas stealthily pulls Milo and swaps. Yazsas starts hyping this act up as the **Great Bari Act**. Yazsas puts down a pouch to tip.
There are 2 men and one woman. One man tosses a few coppers into the pouch.
The man doesn't believe Bari's story of being a performer captured by the Yuan-ti so she uses Steel Wind Strike on the three of them, killing them with the daggers she was juggling.
Robin jumps from the bushes and stabs at one and Elysian's Witch Bolt hits him. With a arcing pink bolt and a task of burning in his mouth, Robin takes some damage.
Elysian drops the bolt and the party goes to collect the people that Bari left after they went flying.

The party gears up in the uniforms and Bari just wears the Hat of Disguise as a uniform hat with a red and blue dress costume.
As we try to sneak in, Robin is caught. Elysian dominates the one guard. Robin stabs the other one but he just seems confused and then Yazsas chokes him out.
Elysian tells her dominated guard to dispose of the traitorous guard and then defend us at all cost.
When the guard returns, there is a Dwarf and a Drow heading towards us and into the cave.
Varram is wearing all white and has a scar beneath is left eye. The Drow is wearing all white robes with an undercut haircut and some slight stubble. He seems to glide across the ground.
The Drow stops Elysian as he asks what she is doing out there. He says all Patrols are to return as the storm is coming.



Session 18 [of ITGH's perspective] (19-05-2020) [PushingDaisies Missing]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

The drow seens to be a Dragonsoul based on the uniform, but he doesn't have a coloured rank or hand tattoo, while the others have white for each.
The people are disrobing or armor as it is nearing 151f in the cave.
Varram has a fully tatooed body in dedication to Tiamat.
We get inspected and they ask if we should disrobe.
One of us is asked to lead, so Bari does. Bari takes the map and plots out the path.

We run into two strange creatures. The smaller one is chomping on a rusty breastplate and the larger is picking through some corpses.
Bari charms the smaller one (Rust Monster) with Charm Monster and it wanders over to check us out.
As the party starts to walk past, the big one (Ankheg) charges Bari who was left in the back.

Robin runs out and stabs the Ankheg with his moonblade. Acid is thrown out of the wound and some lands on Robin.
Bari insults it and it digs a hole in the ground. It seems to be leaking acid form it's body and the ground is slushy with acid.
With a tug, Bari moves the Rust Monster down out of the way.
Yazsas cats Destructive Wave and thunder and radiant light smash into the Ankheg. Elysian readies a Witchbolt for when the Ankheg comes out of the ground.
The ground starts to shake around us. Another moster busts up near Robin and Elysian (Umber Hulk) as the Ankheg pops out of the ground and shoots acid on Yazsas, Elysian, and the Rust Monster.
Elysian fires her Witchbolt angrily at the acid spewer in return. Robin is confused by the gaze of the Umber Hulk.
Bari insults the Ankheg for being so leaky. Yazsas crushes it with his Hammer of Thunderbolts.
The dying Ankheg explodes, hitting the running Yazsas, as well as Elysian, Robin and Bari.
Elysian calls her Hound of Ill Omen and then attacks the Umber Hulk with another Witch Bolt, but it fails.
Robin strikes true with his moon blade, hitting the Umber Hulk solidly and wounding it badly (71), but misses with his luck blade.
Bari shoots at the Umber Hulk with her Hand Crossbow. Yazsas casts Shatter on the big bug and it seems very effective. He then heals Elysian and Robin a bit with a Mass Healing Word.
Elysian's dire wolf bites the Umber Hulk, and it seems to fall over unconcious. She then fires a lightning bolt at it to make sure it's dead.

Elysian offers some recently charred Umber Hulk, and Bari accepts and takes a hunk from the chest, but the meat has a red and white crab colour to it.
Bari enjoys the meat and takes some with her.
The guys meet up with us and confront us on not being "shinies" as we survived the gauntlet. Yazsas reads their thoughts and sees they are nervous. They seem to want to talk Varram out.
They offer a deal, but Yazsas interrupts with saying that we will take Varram like they want. They ask Yazsas's name and Bari says "Edward Snakehands" as Yazsas is starting to refuse.
Robin asks for some healing and the cultists say it's a dumb idea, but Yazsas does it anyway.
Elysian says we can call for Raphael if needed (Bari has a mental link).

We find a translucent purple slugapede with crystal jaws (Fate Eater) and it gets the drop on us. Robin runs up and finds another around the corner and hits the main one and backs off.
Yazsas casts Flame Strike but it doesn't do much. Suddenly all the walls look as if they are crystaline and it echos like glass while we hear a faint humming. The floor reflects. Bari thinks this is due to the Umber Hulk meat.
One attacks Yazsas and deals a lot of damage. The other goes for Robin but misses. One Fate Eater tries to Blink, but it's not very successful.
Elysian pops some Firebolts on the Fate Eaters and then Bari follows up with two Fiery Greatsword slashes, one of which strikes true.
Robin gets another strike in with his Moon Blade and the Fanatics all go in for some dagger pokes.




Session 19 [of ITGH's perspective] (26-05-2020) [PushingDaisies Missing]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yazsas misses his Guiding Bolt and the Fate Eaters bite both Robin and Elysian. Elysian casts Fire Bolt at both Slugs twice, only missing once.
Milo finally shows up and tries to help with no armour on. Bari misses her 2 fiery swings and inspires Elysian with a reassuring tap on her shoulder.
Robin misses with his Moonblade and hits his boot, but his luckblade strikes true. Yazsas lands a hit with his Hammer of Thunderbolts and heals the party a bit.
Yazsas then heals the party with a Mass Healing Word. The Dragon Cultists charge to get some more pokes in with their tiny daggers, one thrown. One manages to miss with a pointblank stab.
The Fate Eater bites a Cultist and kills him, but he looks like he has been dead and crystalized for centuries.
The other Fate Eater chomps down on a second cultist, killing him.
Elysian fires off more Fire Bolts. Milo whispers something to his Oathbow and then goes after his new sworn enemy with 2 arrows.
Bari finally hits with her Fiery Emo Greatsword, finishing off the worm. Robin critically misses and the Cultist takes this as inspiration to miss twice as well.
Yazsas smashes the Fate Eater again with the sound of thunder and the party is healed again. The worm rebukes with a bite, hitting Yazsas and knocking him unconcious.
Elysian moves in and fires another Fire Bolt, just sort of fizzling out on the Fate Eater. 
**Milo sneakily casts Chill Touch from around the corner and Bari spots it.**
^ Bari makes it seem like she just casted that spell. She then stabs the last Dragon Cultist twice, killing him to hide the party's secrets.
Robin finishes off the last purple worm with a stab from his Moon Blade.

Bari touches Yazsas with a glow and he becomes concious again. Yazsas heals the party with two Mass Cure Wounds.
Robin inspires everyone as we celebrate the victory. Robin collects the daggers off of the Cultists.
**Bari realizes that the worm meat doesn't need to be cooked to be edible, but doesn't mention it.**
Elysian stares at it a bit and then eats it. She wheases in pain, holds her stomach, and vomits blood.
Bari makes fun of Elysian eating it and she tosses it at Bari, who catches it in her mouth and eats it.
It's hard and mealy and doesn't take too good. It's reminiscent of bugs.
**Bari gains a divination spell (Identify).**
Robin gives Elysian a spell of Greator healing and she downs it immediately.
Elysian yells out for Raphael to help out, but Bari tells him it's fine.

We make it to the end and find a weird humanoid in the cavern. The figure is in all black, with a black staff and a tail (Dark Red). He is smoking a pipe and seems to be divinate. There seems to be some energy eminating from him.
Bari introduces herself. One of the man's eyes is red, other other is black. He has claws.
Bari asks if this man is a dragon cultist. He isn't and hasn't seen Varam. This is the first person he's seen in days.
This man won't say his name but mentions he is friends with Mordacai. He then introduces himself as Pandjed.
Pandjed stamps his staff and energy radiates.
He offers a drink and Milo accepts it. It's just whiskey. Milo is happy that it's not magical.
Bari overhears magical weed and takes a packed pipe from Pandjed that he offers. She decides to cash the bowl and falls down halucinating and incapitated.
Elysian explains the mission we have and Yazsas tries a hard hit on the pipe and starts to trip, but isn't incapitated. He seems to be having fun.
He feels up Robin a bit and says he is soft.

As the three are grouped up (Yazsas, Elysian, and Robin), Pandjed casts a lighting bolt at each.
Robin says to focus on taking Pandjed's staff so he can't TP out. Pandjed says, "good luck" but Milo doesn't respond.
He then runs in and uses Booming Blade, and hits hard, but then misses with his luckblade.
Milo drops Bari and then pushes Panjed, knocking him prone.
Bari loses control of her energy and suddenly starts shooting Radiant Energy from her mouth and eyes, charring everyone around her with radiant energy.
Yazsas fires a Guiding Bolt at the prone Pandjed, but misses. Yazsas calls for Divine Intervention and his god actually responds for the first time.
Suddenly Bari and Yazsas are no longer high. A humanoid appears next to Yazsas. The man seems confused as to where he is and Milo and Robin recognize him (Tythan).
**Everyone gets 1d10 to any roll one time**.
Elysian casts a Lighting Bolt at Pandjed, who Counterspells it, but Elysian Counterspells the Counterspell and the Lightning Bolt hits.
Pandjed casts Disintegrate on Robin, but he dodges it after being inspired by Bari. He then tries a Lightning Bolt on Robin who dodges again.
Tythan uses his Thunder Cannon on Pandjed and then casts Sanctuary on Robin, hoping he will run.
Robin runs in and stabs Pandjed, breaking the Sanctuary spell, but dealing some damage.
Milo cuts at Pandjed's wrist trying to loose the staff, but just wounds him. He tries to knock the Lizard into the water, but it doesn't work.
Bari casts Fairie Fire on Milo and Pandjed and then heals Elysian with a Healing Word.


Session 20 [of ITGH's perspective] (02-06-2020) [PushingDaisies Missing]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yazsas tries to control the water to drown out Pandjed, but it is counterspelled. Yazsas smashes him with his Hammer of Thunderbolts and then casts Shield of Faith on himself.
Robin uses Booming Blade on Pandjed, but Milo suddenly parries the blade (DM controlled) and says that we have caused enough death in the world and we should lay down our arms first.
Robin's second strike lands on Pandjed without a parry and Robin backs up.
**Suddenly a portal opens up behind Pandjed and nothing comes out of it except a voice that says, "You have failed me for the last time Pandjed". It then closes itself.**
Bari backs off and sits down, playing her Drums.
Tythan casts a Blast Wave and knocks Pandjed away into the water. Milo holds Yazsas sturdy with his shield and they don't get tossed. Tythan then casts Sanctuary on himself.
Pandjed is knocked over in boiling hot water that is knee deep and it doesn't seem to do anything.
Suddenly an invisible cage is noticed holding in Bari, Yazsas, and Robin. It seems something unseen may have come through that portal (Mordacai Hedge).
Wings sprout from Pandjed's back and he starts flying 10ft above the water. He then casts 3 scorching rays at Robin and two charr him a bit as he dodges the largest one.
Pandjed then casts a Finger of Death on Robin, but he holds strong of constitution and gets sapped a fair bit.
Elysian casts an advanced Magic Missle on Pandjed, and seems to hurt him a bit.
Yazsas tries to get some more Divine Intervention, but his prayers are unheard. He then use a Mass Healing Word to give the party a little healing.
Robin tries to hide in the steam and then tries to take a shot with his flintlock, but misses and re-reveals himself to Pandjed. He then lays down in the corner, defeated.
The invisible Mordacai casts lightning bolt through Milo, Yazsas, and Elysian. The bolt seems to heal Yazsas, but Milo and Elysian take quite the shock.
We note the bolt came from Pandjed's left (our right of him).
Bari talks in her head, telling Raphael that his son has gotten himself locked in a cage again from fighting people. Rafa appears and starts bitching at Elysian for letting his son get hurt.
Bari tries to Dimension Door Milo out, but fails. She then goes and sits down next to the depressed cat in the corner to play more drums.
Tythan goes to leave the room and tries to Enlarge the invisible cage, but can't find it.
Elysian takes a fireball as Pandjed sculpts it over the cage and falls unconcious. Rafa also takes this fireball and seems to get enraged.
Yazsas uses Control Water to create a vortex in a cicle to try to find Mordacai, but it doesn't hit him, so he stops concentrating on it. He then uses Bless on Rafa, Elysian, and himself.
Robin offers a flask through the cage to Pandjed, who says he doesn't like coconut. He offers a shot of whiskey for Pandjed to take as he is tired of the fighting and trapped.
Mordacai tells everyone that him tracking the party down has to do with tiny toes (the one Robin sold to him). Robin seems to think it was Rafa who said this (and he's wrong), so he flips him off.
Mordacai lobs a fireball into the cage, hitting the entire party.
_Bari brings Elysian back up with a Healing Word and then tries to Dimension Door Milo back out. She gets counterspelled, but she counterspells the counterspell which triggers Mordacai's Azuth's Alteration Mantle which causes the counterspell to invert on itself and return the spell-slot._
Tythan pulls Elysian out and casts Cure Wounds on her followed by a Shield of faith.
**Pandjed accepts the shot from Robin and then goes to grab the exposed hand, but fails. As Robin pulls his hand back, he tosses a Mindflayer tadpole into Pandjed's eye.
Pandjed responds by launching another Finger of Death at Robin, instantly killing him (raising him as a zombie on the next turn).**
Elysian pulls a start off of her robe of stars and uses it, casting another Advanced Magic Missile at Pandjed.
Raphael is able to see Mordacai and casts Dominate Person on him. Pandjed tries to counterspell this, but Raphael counterspells that counterspell.
**Mordacai is dominated and told to take his lizard and leave.
Suddenly Mordacai is visible and he takes Pandjed back through the portal with him.**


Session 21 [of ITGH's perspective] (23-06-2020) [PushingDaisies Spectating]
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Robin gets back up as a zombie as the cage falls and Raphael goes to him.
He threatens Elysian, who tries to turn it around on Pandjed and Mordacai. He decides not to kill Elysian. He seems to not have cared for his son at all and gets Elysian in his debt through.
He grabs the zombie Robin and takes him with him. As he leaves, he threatens Elysian.

Bari tries to start a short rest and Tythan asks about what we are doing. Bari tells him and he slowly takes off his armour as it's too hot.
Tythan heads to the water, and his legs open and start shooting jets of flame as he levitates across the hot water to the rock to see where Mordacai could have come from.
The party takes a short rest as Bari plays her lute and heals up.
Yazsas parts the boiling water and allows the stuck Tythan back across, and then we walks back again to set up the ambush.
The party tries to hide and all fail horribly at it as Bari leaves to get the cultists.

Yazsas sees a pair of eyes in the bush he's sitting in. The man introduces itself and seems like he was drunk and was somehow sleeping it off here.
He was leaving a bar, very intoxicated and somehow ended up here. Yazsas is unable to read if he's telling the truth so he casts a Zone of Truth and finds he's truthful.
The man was a part of a noble house and is apparently now on the run as he was framed for the murder of a Prince.
Yazsas explains taking on the Dragon Cult and sums it up as being on our own quest.
The man offers his help against the Dragon Cult as he has some vendetta against them.
Yazsas explains the ambush and tells him to hide and ready himself. He also notes that if he betrays the party, he will turn him to pulp.
The Yuan-Ti then introduces himself as Thaxiil disrobes.

Bari brings the cultists down and tosses out a dagger before she rounds the corner to warn the party and causes it to flash with Prestidigitation.
Tythan fires his Thunder Monger when the first rounds the corner. It nails the first one in the eye as the wall gets splattered.
There seems to be a hole out of the side of the man's temple where the round bounced out.
Yazsas casts Shatter on the group, killing the Dwarf we intended to keep alive.
The Drow casts Regenerate and his eye repairs in front of us.
Tythan takes another shot and the man returns with a line of light that strikes Tythan and the light stays up.
Thaxiil moves in and stabs at the Drow who dies. He tries to hit the Death's Head twice but he seems to be Unstoppable on one hit.
Bari moves in and hits the Death's Head twice with her Flaming Emo Greatsword, and kills it.
Yazsas moves in and stablizes Varram with Spare the Dying.

Yazsas hogties Varram. Milo calls Tythan over, who jumps across the water. Milo complains about us being hostile. 
Tythan and Thaxiil decides to drink together to relax.
Elysian collects the Dragon Cult Symbols from each one.
Bari complains to Yazsas and then he casts Beacon of Hope on Varram, which Bari follows up with a Healing Word.
She notes that the Dwarf seems to be alive, but he has blood tricking from his ears and eyes.
He seems to be in a coma or completely braindead.
Bari talks Elysian into dimension dooring Varram the Vegetable out and she takes him to the forest.
Tythan drags the two bodies to where the Slugs were and he chops up a slug and puts it in his bag of holding.

The party makes it to the entrance where the rest of the cultists are enjoying rations.
One looks scornfully at us, and then sits back. Bari notices that the one seems to be onto us but would rather sleep than deal with us and then waves at him, which he returns.
We leave our Rust Monster buddy in the cave to ambush the next person who comes in.
Outside the cave we find the sun slowly disappearing from the sky to beckon in the night.
We explain where we are to Tythan and what happened with the Yuan-Ti.
Once we reach camp, we find Elysian has put up her Tower and we rest for the night.
Tythan burns incense for the fallen Robin in the way Inazuma used to.
Bari sets up her tent on the roof of the tower. 
Elysian and Thaxiil argue over his drinking and she instructs her spectral servants to not serve him anything alcoholic.
They threaten each-other a bunch and Elysian ignores him and goes to bed.


Session 22 [of ITGH's perspective] (30-06-2020) [PushingDaisies Spectating]
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

We leave the tower and start walking to Waterdeep. Milo calls us stupid and reinforces his distrust for magic.
The party discusses past transgressions, including destroying a town  with a tsunami. Tythan was imprisoned and helped to rebuild some according to him. (It seems he got out early and they think he broke out since he was teleported here by a god).
They ask Milo about the bird, but it is missing. 

Milo and Thaxiil start drinking. They explain Goldenfields when Bari asks.
There were apparently some Giants in the Goldenfields, but instead they found a town full of assorted unwanted humanoids.
Inazuma casted a Fireball in a field, so the entire farming town set on fire. Only 1/3 of the town wasn't burned alive.
Mordacai was apparently from the town and his parents lived there and died due to the fires.

Elysian was sent on a mission to "take care" of the Dragon Cult. She says she is thinking of returning to her family once she reaches Waterdeep.
She says she will leave the tower with us when he departs.
Thaxiil is looking for information on the man who ruined his life and haven't found it yet (framed for the murder of a Prince).
Yazsas explains that he wants to reach temple when he gets to town and try to take a pilgrimage with his God to try to find Mordacai.

Elysian puts the tower into a cube and hands it over.
A day later, we reach Waterdeep. The party pays the tax at the gate, with Elysian showing her Signet Ring and Bari showing her Badge of the Watch.
Milo pays for Yazsas as Yazsas doesn't have change. They start to shake down Tythan for extra but Elysian says that he is with her.
Elysian says, "We shall see each-other again, some day". She wishes the party well and then departs.

Tythan decides go to check on his business instead of taking the captive in. The party is unable to stop him.
We head to Castle Waterdeep and believe the Open Lord and a few notables are waiting for us.
The open Lord was warned about us and shows up when we enter the foyer.
She points out our missing party member and we return the vegetable to her.
He falls and starts drooling. She gets angry about it. There are others from the meeting that look at the vegetable.
They take him and leave as she says he is now completely useless to us.
Dagult Neverember comes in and asks who is responsible. Yazsas owns up to it and is asked to and then explains what happened.
Bari tells them about it being Mordacai, the Blackstaff. The Open Lord says she will drop the issue for more information.
Yazsas explains everything and Bari confirms it was the Blackstaff.
**Milo offers up investigating Mordacai as the "punishment". We need to hunt him down and bring him back alive.** (accepted)
Neverember is escorted out and his has were behind his back, in chains.
Thaxiil notes this and asks. Neverember embezzuled cash and hid it to retrieve later.

She takes the party to her private office in Castle Waterdeep and says that she cleared her appointment.
We mention Pandjed, the artifacts, and the fight.
She says that her and the last Blackstaff discussed a sucessor and it wasn't Mordacai. After her death, he was given it.
The Open Lord talks about the party with Mordacai trying to stop the Death Curse. She lost communication when the Blackstaff entered a room.
The curse was broken by that party with Mordacai though.
She says one of the Margaster House was with Mordacai in the party. They are suspected of Asmodeus Worship.
There was a Water Genasi and a Red Tiefling girl with him. Kurious Page and Kethanon (were the last two known to know about the party).

Tythan goes to his omulet shop and finds it burned down with his construct in it. A guard wanders by and asks if this was his place.
The guard thinks this is insurance fraud and detains and then arrests Tythan. 

Milo asks if the Open Lord can send a message that reaches Pandjed instead of Mordacai.
Yazsas offers to use Sending for the message. **The message is sent that the party and Milo is here to help if Pandjed ever needs it.**
Milo gets a response that he will look out for the help. Yazsas comes right out in the open and offers his support against Mordacai. They make plans to meet and discuss it.

The party tries to find Tythan and ends up overhearing a man with metal limbs that was drug into the court.
We walk on in and talk to a receptionist. Bari flashes her badge and becomes Tythan's representation.

The Magister is a black-bearded dwarf. He points out that Tythan is a Duergar, which didn't help his cause.
There are witnesses from Goldenfields saying he was there during the fire. Tythan responds that he was trying to save as many lives as he could. They confirm this was true. 
Then the Tsunami is brought up and Tythan talks about having been in prison to help rebuild the item.
Next up is an accusal that he snuck a Rok into Waterdeep to open an Omelet shop. Apparently that isn't legal.
They claim he never paid the Guild it's fees. There are no notes for commercial usage on the lease. 
Yazsas steps up and explains Tythan was pulled to him.
The court offers some short-term banishments and a 5,000gp fine and it is accepted.
Tythan is given 24 hours to get out. The burned building is not his issue.

The party meets back up with Tythan and his Giant Construct.
They explain what the new objective is. Tythan tries to researche the Fate Eater corpse he has and is stopped from entering the Library.
Yazsas heas to the Temple of Tempus and there is nobody there. When he enters, it's dead-silent in there. He can't even hear his own heartbeat.
As he gets inside, the door slams shut behind him.
A voice says, "Hello Yazsas", followed by a crack of thunder as Yazsas asks, "Who is this?".
