[QUOTE="thickets, post: 4276514, member: 2527"] [b]Session 6[/b] Now cast your thoughts to earlier in the morning, while the boys were out running their errands, Turlock calls the watch in to arrest the last three still in the room at the Rusty Hook and claim his 25 gold. Five of the Sea Lord's Guard bust down the door and take the suspects out bleary-eyed and kicking. As they're being frog-marched to the law courts, fate smiles on them, as there is an explosion at the alchemist's shop en route, and fighting and looting breaks out in the streets. Leckiiri takes the opportunity to lift her weapons back from the guard and helps Smith and Lucky break free, but they are separated and Leckiiri sneaks away back to the inn, where... Greymane has come to the inn, leaving the rest of the group. Some strange smell was in the air...the smell of Harrimast's whim...and Greymane could do naught but to follow it. Was it divine inspiration or just a bad turnip? Regardless, this turn of events leads to him running into Leckiiri. They exchange information and while Greymane continues to search for Lucky and Smith, Leckiiri heads to the bricked-up house. The others break open the chests to find some curative draughts and oodles and oodles of gold and silver coins, along with some weird glass grenade. With draughts draughted the adventurers continue on to the next door, which leads into a library/study. They find some progress reports on the Lighthouse of Drac and also a letter which reads: "Our preparations are almost complete. We will arrive in Freeport on schedule. Make sure that all is ready for us. The Brotherhood is counting on you. -N'Tal." Omar delves into a black leather tome titled The Book of the Unspeakable One and is somewhat worse for wear in doing so. Shimsin gets bored and goes to the next set of double doors. He opens it to see that it is the heart of this black temple of the Unspeakable One, with a statue of the tentacled god and behind it the unbelievable yellow symbol of the cult. The hooded man behind the altar reveals himself to be Milos and begins casting black magic! Shimsin charges and leaps over the altar but his target seems magically protected. The two temple attendants fire crossbow bolts at the rest of the intruders. Tariq and Omar dispatch the temple attendants and Leckiiri hurls the mystery grenade at Milos, causing much coughing and blindness and some obscurement too. The adventurers continue to pummel Milos into submission and they tie him up for questioning. As they search the room they find Lucius under the alter, hog-tied and gagged! When freed he tells of how Milos sent him on an errand to this house days ago where he was beaten and held captive, tortured by the cult for forbidden secrets that Lucius may have gleaned on his mysterious journeys across the seven seas with Captain Scarbelly and others, but of course Lucius has no memories of these journeys except perhaps for strange flitting glimpses in dreams. When Milos comes to, the adventurers interrogate him and cut off a pinky finger which turns into a green scaled digit when separated. Milos spits at them and starts mumbling some dark tongue which begins to bring the darkness of doom into the room, so the interrogators are forced to knock him out again before doom arrives. Tariq runs off to find Egil and meets Yolanda the Paladin and her heavy flail, Paul, at the temple. They pack up the loot and they pull down the purple curtains (revealing a magical spear) and wrap up Milos, bringing everything to Lucius' house. When they see that passersbys are clearly interested in the weighted down, clinking baskets and body-in-drapes, they decide not to stay at Lucius'. Instead they head to the Temple of the God of Knowledge for an important meeting with High Priest Thuron. Thuron listens intently at the tale of the group and Lucius, and then revives Milos, who of course says that he is innocent and taken advantage of by these wanted rogues who tried to burn down the church! So Yolanda, Thuron, Egil, Lucius, a temple guard and a priest all head down with a tied-up Milos and the adventurers to the evil temple. Thereat, Milos resumes his doom chanting and an over-zealous Yolanda yells "BLASPHEMER!" and clouts him upon the noggin with her flail, splitting his head open. Upon Milos' death, he reverts to his natural form - that of an unholy snake man! Thuron thanks the group for exposing this cult and saving Lucius and promises to absolve them of the outstanding warrant implemented by Milos as well as rewarding them and offering the services of the temple for all of their maladies.
