Message: <blockquote data-quote="aartvb" data-source="post: 9477622" data-attributes="member: 7035557">Session 8 (10-02-2024): Through Fire and Song: The Seela’s Secret and the Burning CurseThe group decided to follow the river up north.Target-seeking fire clouds hovered above the group, and the third or fourth cloud left behind a very angry elemental creature with a spear and tail.This creature was swiftly taken down with Kruggli’s PTSD-triggering use of Shape Water, and Anja’s (yet unspecified) Spiritual Weapon. The fiery being crumbled into ash.Later, they fed a group of Magmins, likely disrupting the ecosystem, to clear their path.Eventually, they arrived at a lake with stone-carved reliefs of humanoid figures. Esta recognized these figures as the Seela.Esta’s official names for her parents are Enja and Onnie.Nelle, a unicorn, appeared behind the waterfall at the river’s base. She warned them that further in the cave lay some “messed-up elves”—possibly Esta’s parents.The unicorn shared a vision of a "child of Trilla/Trillith," which is believed to be the cause of the forest’s current burning state. Crystin, acting strangely, says the same words at the same time.The Seela are creatures whose singing supports the forest’s power. Esta drew a literal stick-figure of herself, with a fire crossed out and a smiley face, and asks Nelle if it can give the drawing to her parents.Nelle offered six items—three eagle feathers and three dragon scales.Feather tokens:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">2 bird feathers (-1, Anja gave one to the unicorn)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">1 Swan Boat feather</li> </ul>Dragon scales:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">2 Whip scales</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">1 Bird scale</li> </ul>The group decided to travel back to the bridge to rest but encountered more Magmins. They fed them Anja's last (non-magical) candies and Esta’s rations.January 7thThey met Tiljann, a Seela singer of melancholic night songs, and Vuhl, a Seela who was once supportive of Tiljann and the preservation of the forest but has recently become antagonistic.Other Seela include:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Piet (the first boy)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Johan (the second boy)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Erika (the first girl)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Francien (the second girl)</li> </ul>[ATTACH=full]382270[/ATTACH]</blockquote>
