Message: <blockquote data-quote="Plane Sailing" data-source="post: 1274" data-attributes="member: 114">Arriving at Knightsbridge, the much depleted party first go tovisit Alkanar at the temple. Lysander reports and dedicates his sword to the work of Asura in this location, and Alkanar is delighted to have a Jazumai in his region. Then Auriel and Lysander go to the Queen of Cups for a drink, while Ynnsfeardh leaves to transact some private business for a while, promising to return in a month or so.While at the Queen of cups, the pair meet Crail (as detailed above) and the next day meet Sula in the market square (also detailed above). Joining together and helping Crail get out of town since Lysander thinks he is redeemable, they head off back to the village of Oakhurst to pass on news of the deaths to friends there.A couple of days later they arrive at Oakhurst and discover the streets empty. A cautious recce by Crail reveals that everyone is standing, silently in the tavern. The heroes enter and see that everyone seems to be staring at something flickering on the bar. Crail gets drawn in by the mystic flame and stands entranced by Lysander is able to dash the candle off the bar, extinguishing it. Suddenly everyone wakes up out of their stupor.Apparently, Edarad, a visiting candlemaker had been in town that morning - and had a number of exotic candles to sell. He had done fairly good business, and attracted quite a crowd, when he decided to show them one of his special candles. Other villagers came down to the pub looking for their loved ones and were also ensnared by the powerful charm of the candle, and nobody can remember what happened while they were entranced by the flame.The company decide to do something about this, and casting around outside Sula soon finds tracks leading off into the woods, a small handcart led by a human. They give chase, and by late afternoon find themselves in the depths of the woods. Suddenly they become aware of a loud buzzing sound – and hurtling through the trees towards them come four giant bees!</blockquote>
