[QUOTE="emeraldbeacon, post: 9016655, member: 7032019"] The festival is a pleasant diversion from constant political maneuvering and outright war. Both the paladin and the rogue aquit themselves well in their respective tournaments, while others avail themselves of food, entertainment, and other diversions. Their interactions, though, begin to paint an awkward picture of a dangerous situation. An fireworks demonstration reveals that the city's alchemists have all been called to work in the castle. The king's own chef has been sent off duty, on the eve of an important banquet. And a guard explains that he (and many of his friends) have been re-assigned for this evening, leaving numerous blind spots around the castle. Duke Gallo is, understandably, concerned at these revelations, and intends to take his own precautions. He asks the team to investigate the castle, possibly sneaking in through the described undefended routes. After a rather unpleasant but brief meeting with Nina Glibglammer, the squad rallies to a graveyard near the castle walls. After dealing with a terrifying ghost-like being, and mowing through a wall of zombies frozen in sewage, they break into a torture chamber, and depose of a particularly troublesome mohrg named Jutras. A bit further in, they ambush the Ragesian ambassador and his inquisitor, before discovering a plot to poison the night's dinner... with the same poison that seems connected to the death of Valk, once the husband of the party's Artificer. [B]SESSION NOTES: [/B]I've been having fun planting weird prophetic dreams for players, that tie their stories to the overall plot. Ten years prior, the artificer's husband was indeed studying the Red Madness, when he seemingly fell under its effects, forcing her to defend herself. She saw a glimpse of Madness' true form at that time, and now, is meeting her old adventuring friend Nina... whom is startlingly passive-aggressive towards her. In this case, there's no secret that Nina is a problem... but the party still doesn't realize just how pervasive the Trillith situation is in the world, yet. [/QUOTE]
