Hey, when does Rafflorn get "betrayed by a friend"? Wasn't that one of his Deck of Many Things draws too?

Thanks peoples-
I wanted very much to make this last session like the end of a book or movie.
Think of this coming Thursday's session as the beginning of the sequel.
PlaneSailing- Rafflorn's betrayal has already happened. It was subtle, but it was there. There'll be much more on it next session. Be certain to dress in your best ren faire outfits for session 36- You've got a big event to attend.

Bah, just lightning bolt the old bastard. Or say it's not my fault, it's the cards!

Yes, I noticed. It also struck me, however, that immediately after drawing the rogue card, Katya's reaction toward him immedtiately seemed to change. Sure, the reaction change was for the better, and then seemed cemented when he drew the Throne card, but after all, if you're going to betray someone, why not go all out and get in a position to really hurt them?
Of course, I think it's much more likely that Simon is the betrayer.

Well, Kat's father is Rafflorn's only old friend WE know, there may be another. But then again, I also think the tables have turned:
First Kat's father wanted to hook Raf up with his daughter and Kat didn't want to, now the old man hates Raf and Kat is interested in ol' Raf.
Guess having his own castle has NOTHING to do with it...
Doc, you have actually inspired me to write up my sessions as well. My players love it (we play the original ToEE). Bad thing is I started in the middle, have to write up sessions 1-5 . Not as epic as the KotSQ, but fun stuff. Thx again.

Once again let me chime in with praise for the character Dartan. It's been great watching that character grow and develop. Though his battle strategies are still the same (and they make me quail every time he charges in) it seems to me that his Wisdom has increased, at least in the way that he views the world.
Think about it. What is the last thing we see of Dartan prior to the Epilogue?
Does this sound like the Dartan that we met so long ago? I think not.
That, my friends, is the mark of a good character, and a good story. Well done.
Thankfully the story hasn't ended. There are new characters, characters that haven't had quite the history with us that Dartan has, but whom we hope will become as alive to us as the Lone Survivor.
Personally I have no doubts that they will and I'm looking forward to the dawning of the Next Chapter.

Kat's Intentions
Aw, c'mon, now, don't make Kat sound like she's taking advantage of Raff's good fortune!
Upon re-reading some sections, you'll find that Katya has always noticed Rafflorn, but is not keen on the idea of settling down. (Her father gave up his adventuring when he settled down, and her mom became a <gasp!> homemaker! Not a very adventurous & fortune filled life...)
But, she showed genuine concern for Raff when he was going to pull from The Deck, and kissed him for good luck as well.
You have to understand that Kat & Kyla know Raff because he's been working for the Ohanna's. To Kat, Rafflorn is a sweet guy, but she's not sure if she should give up adventuring and her fever for fortune for the sweetness of a man who could make her an everyday housemaiden. Besides, if her sister Kyla thinks settling down with Raff is good for Kat, than Kat is going to shy away from it just to spite her sister!
On the otherhand, Katya sees a different side of Rafflorn when they're out adventuring together. She has seen his courage, intelligence, and heroism, and she realizes there is more to Raff than she originally thought. Plus, she saw the way he was in control of the situation when they teleported back & their home was under attack. She was impressed and happy to see that this man (who obviously has an interest in her) wasn't just an ordinary man working in her father's shop, but a heroic and brave individual.
Guess you'll just have to wait & see what happens over the year they spend together...

If that doesn't call for an update, I don't know what does!!
Good ending though. I miss some of the main crew, like Hannah and Erasmus. *I* think that now that the temple is cleansed, they should be fine! That's what I think.

Hmm, I guess my twitchy internet connection ate my earlier post.
I wanted to say how impressed I am with the whole story, but most especially with Dartan's player. I really didn't like the character and was upset to see my favourite characters die while this jerk kept surviving. Only the good die young and all that. Now he's the most sympathetic character of them all.
This guy tried to save a father that had nothing but contempt for him. He wanted to save him. I nearly cried when Dartan realized that he and his father can be nothing but enemies. Awesome.
I'm looking forward to see what develops between Kat and Raff.
You've got a great group of players there and I'm looking forward to the next adventure. Don't keep us waiting.
Pretty please?
