WoDaD Session 26

== Title ==
Lightning Rod
== Recap ==
The party rents a boat (after much deliberation) to cross the lake and head towards the Symalon Plateau. On the way, a living lightning figure approaches, sounding to Maria like her mother. It reveals itself to be an Avatar of the Storm, a servant of Astrape and Bronte. The Avatar says some cryptic stuff about how the two goddesses are closer to this plane than they have been in a long time - all because of Maria. It agrees to wait for Maria's call to come to her aid.
In the Psinfolnn Forest a couple days later, a group of Daybreak scouts confronts the party. Maria scares most of them off and Bran charms the leader to leave, so the party is able to move on, though they avoid the Daybreak Hold until they're forced to go to it by the nigh-impassable cliffs of the plateau. In his recon, Bran learns that the hold has a death worm in its basement and Chi Pin wants the worm badly. Bran amazingly manages to charm the hold's leader remotely and gets all of the Daybreak Mages out of the building while the others invisibly sneak in... But then Chi Pin's chaos magic activates.
