Find Loravor 😑

Lead

Amal πŸβ€™s being weird
Loravor 😑 is AWOL

Key Events 

  • Miraren πŸ§β€β™‚οΈ sends Ludovicus πŸ•Š to Amal 🐍 with a message about arranging a meetup
  • Party goes to see Zoran πŸ—‘ in the Inner Circle. They have a beautiful 2 storey wooden cottage with dark browns and greens and a gate to the side
  • Lots of cloaked figures have noticed Miraren πŸ§β€β™‚οΈ throughout the town, but don’t appear to have ill intent
  • Zoran πŸ—‘ is a jacked person in their late 30’s with blonde hair and blue eyes
  • They've been forced to train new soldiers with a 3 day turnaround period for the war
  • There are rumours that Amal πŸβ€™s missing son has returned
  • Sapphire has passed away, and the Jasper family have decided to move elsewhere - possibly heading towards Balor
  • Amal 🐍 has replaced the Sable Guard with her own personal guard, but they’re only interested in protecting the Ornate Ward
  • Zoran πŸ—‘ is the second in command below Alaad and had noticed Alaad seeming unusually friendly with Loravor 😑; suggests we speak to Carnis at the Training Grounds to see if he noticed anything magical going on
  • Party stops by the Hot Cake Bake Shop after deciding people look less suspicious when they’re eating pastries (Miraren πŸ§β€β™‚οΈ pays for the treats @ 1gp with a 1gp tip)
  • Malen is a human in full plate armor with the symbol of Sotan βš” on his chest.
  • Carnis is very obviously a caster with his softer demeanor and flowing robes.
  • Kindle πŸ”₯ and Miraren πŸ§β€β™‚οΈ aid in β€œtraining” two recruits before pitting them against each other where Miraren πŸ§β€β™‚οΈβ€™s recruit wins with the power of stealth
  • The party discovers that kids as young as 10 have been drafted towards Akai’s war efforts, being picked up but Soldiers of Akai and taken to Akengenua every three days via a teleportation circle in Balor
  • While the party wrestles with that information it is revealed that Loravor 😑 had indeed been enchanting Alaad to be more receptive to his subversions
  • Amal 🐍 gets back to the party - β€œI appreciate the offer and concern, but I’m fine, thank you”
  • Party heads to a blacksmith to for items to open the stone door in The Dragon Aspect πŸ’«, but discover they don’t really need anything. Instead get a price on a lockbox for the cart
Item

  • Miraren πŸ§β€β™‚οΈ manages to crack the lock on the stone door and finds a storage area in the crawl space. Narrowly avoids a trap thanks to Ridley πŸ¦β€™s intervention
  • A ledger is found in the crawl space and the only thing missing from it is a Scroll of Modify Memory
  • Stone on one part of the wall in the crawl space looks newer than the rest, likely put in place in the last few years to cut off access to the space from the other house
  • The party leaves The Dragon Aspect πŸ’« to speak to Carnis about Alaad’s memory possibly being modified
