[QUOTE="emeraldbeacon, post: 8592505, member: 7032019"] The tower provided quite the wild goose chase... a well-placed illusion at a doorway distracted the party for precious sectons, letting Larion get into position on a higher floor. As the net closed in, Larion continued to slip in and out, around the crew, using his spider climbing abilities and supreme action economy (as a rogue) to stay one step ahead of the rest of the crew. After some unlucky attempts to pick locks, he ultimately got enough doors open to allow him to make a running leap from the fourth floor of the tower, calling out in celestial for his Lantern Archon to meet him and Shealis at the School. The fall was painful (Jump only increases the distance, it doesn't buffer against a 40 foot fall), but after taking a few arrows and spells, Larion dashed off into the Gate Pass night. The party was frustrated at their failure to catch him, but were glad to hear that the REAL Rivereye Badgerface was still alive and kicking. A quick discussion revealed that the case had been taken by Shahalesti agents to some unknown location in the city. Figuring that this "Shealis" was the only lead they had, they paused for a quick rest at the temple of the Aquiline Cross, getting some minor aid from a local resistance leader, and making a quick stop at a blacksmith with connections to two of the heroes. Eschewing sleep for the night, the crew head to Gabal's School at roughly 4am, meeting a man waiting & watching at the gate. While initially reserved, as soon as they mentioned a lantern archon, Diogenes graciously welcomed them in. After hearing a partially-redacted version of their tale, he revealed that Larion and the Archon were both still in the tower, as far as he knew. He proposed a team-up... he helps them get the information they need, and in exchange, they help him get a bit of payback at Shealis before she flees the city. He helps the heroes get into hidden positions in the tower, then approaches the elf's room to challenge her to one last "friendly duel..." [/QUOTE]
