[QUOTE="skotothalamos, post: 7000816, member: 83398"] The Duchesses headed to Bole and managed to wrangle the Father of Thunder amidst his gigantic stampede by distracting him with vats of fungus beer and then climbing up him. Several Duchesses were riding him at once when he finally came crashing down. He thanked them for a glorious fight and promised that he could give them all healthy babies. They all refused, but he offered to help the Risuri harvest with his titanic fertilizing powers. He also said that anyone who did want lots of healthy babies should come back to this exact spot on the first day of spring. From there, the Duchesses headed to Ber, where they had heard from Executore Glaucia Evora that the city of Ursaliña had gone silent. After talking to Glaucia, they dispatched some Ob shadow assassins whose boss seemed very upset about having to go back to the Ghost Council and break the bad news to Nicodemus. They used Glaucia's Divination spell to ask what would help them the most in Ursaliña. The divination told them to "Get out of the sun and into the bowels of the singing whale." Not quite knowing what to do with that, they headed to the city and sought one of the few leads Glaucia had given them: a merchant named Flida. Flida recognized them as foreigners and asked them to "come in out of the sun." Flida told the group about the glowing flying thing she had witnesses recently and that locals had been acting strangely and disappearing. While this conversation was happening, a flying Gidim occupier known as an Oculus spotted the group and called in some reinforcements. The group mostly fell under a series of Modify Memory spells. Cazara and Summer did not fall under Gidim mind control, but thought it best to follow along and pretend they had. The Gidim built up some fake memories of a detailed investigation that led to the Jaula de Oso fighting colosseum, where they hoped the King of Risur would be killed by the weird fleshwarped hybrid beasts the Gidim had been creating there: wicked creatures with the heads of owls and the bodies of a bears! (The fight went quickly pear-shaped when Ms. Gear penned everyone in with her wall of fire and the owlbears started throwing themselves into the fire, dying, and being absorbed into an uberbear. As the TPK drew near, I advised everyone to thank Nicodemus for the fact they couldn't die from death saves. Cazara escaped after everyone else was down and I adjusted the Gidim plan to one of possessing them after they were unconscious) After their horrible defeat at the arena, most of the Duchesses were taken into the Gidim Leviathan beneath the Bards' College. Cazara had vague memories (by way of having shared her brainspace with Xambria, who had shared brainspace with Sijhen) of how to implant an Oculus Prism in the base of her neck to appear to be a loyal Gidim thrall. The infiltration went well enough. Cazara found Gear in a pile of discarded equipment, which included almost all of the group's gear (heh) except the crown of Risur. more later... [/QUOTE]
