Last night we met with Amivor. Coming out of the Tent was Aerys, one of our former companions on the Shiv. She was part of the group from the Shackles that had been exploring Saventh-Yhi. She says they have decided to “pull up anchor” and leave, though she didn’t give us any details. She thanked us for saving her on the Shiv and we went our separate ways.Amivor had little information for us. It seems that Juliver was not a member of his group but a group associated with a “Rogue Pathfinder” named Eando Kline. Kline was apparently kicked out of the Pathfinders as his “philanthropic ways” got in the way of the much touted Pathfinder objectivity and neutrality. Amivor is somewhat sympathetic to his cause, however. Amivor asked us to take a guard shift. We chose last shift so we would be well prepared. Our planning paid off. Early in our shift as we moved to the edge of the central isle, the entire city seemed to awaken at once. Screams, fires and the sounds of combat broke out in all directions at once. We were almost instantly mobbed by horrid, crawling undead with lashing tongues. Taraz tells me they are called Tuyewera. Once we defeated this swarm of undead we moved toward the camp where there were more sounds of combat. On the way to the heart of the camp we encountered a swarm of Wights. Once we reached the main camp we confronted Ghasts and a Mummy within Amivor’s tent. Once our enemies were defeated, a scout from the Tribe of the Sacred Serpent arrived and told us that similar attacks by an undead hoard had occurred throughout the city. He offered to take us to the building they believed to be the origin of the undead.  He brought us to an ancient mansion sitting on a small hill in the southernmost section of the Artisan’s District. Within the mansion we fought more Ghasts, Wights and some type of spellcasting, undead Serpentfolk. It would appear this Necromancer was the source of the undead, though it seems unbelievable he could control such a massive hoard. With his defeat, we made our way back to the Pathfinder Camp on the central isle.----------Neth the 1st.Juliver was finally ready to tell us her story today. She told us more of the story of Eando and his explorations throughout Golarion that has revealed the possibility of the return of the Serpentfolk race en masse. Though we have encountered a few, Eando feels there are many more in hidden places, resting or waiting to return.Juliver’s story begins with her journey through the Darklands via the Barrier Wall Mountains with ostracized Pathfinder Eando Kline and a few other hand-picked Pathfinders.  They had discovered a city of Serpentfolk under Saventh-Yhi that mirrored one Eando had discovered some time ago beneath Viperwall in Varisia. Below Saventh-Yhi, they were discovered and attacked, only Juliver managed to escape. She followed a tunnel upwards and stumbled through a magic portal that was lined with crystals. In hopes of deterring her pursuers, she smashed some of the crystals. She then encountered an undead Serpentfolk she believed was a wizard, who cast a spell on her that disoriented her (A foe I believe we have already defeated, one that did indeed have Feeblemind in his spellbook). She remembers nothing between then and awakening in the Pathfinder camp, healed of her wounds. She implored us to help her by retracing her steps to the portal. She offered to lead us to the area where we could enter the vaults under the city. On the way there, we found Jask and a woman from the Sargavan Government being pursued by agents of the Aspis Consortium. Once the enemies were defeated, the two told us the Aspis Consortium had attacked and all but destroyed their camp. Needing little excuse to attack one of our most hated foes, we sought out their camp. Their original camp had been abandoned, but we found a new, fortified camp in the southeastern part of the city. Our assault begins now.</blockquote>
