==Recap==
===January 4th, Year 1===
Nyx, Kael and Manfred go into the forest. Sometime later, Nyx returns alone. Abaddon asks Nyx about Kael, she informs him Kael went where her magic comes from. Abaddon insists on finding Keal, and they go to fetch Izual. The party finds Izual during their morning prayer and they inform the party that all the gods have taken an interest in their current war. 
While the party is talking about gods, Malkis comes back with 4 people. He congratulates the party on their performance, then transforms Izual's spear into a bident and names it Zodiac spear because it drew the first blood in the war. Jun examines the possibility that Nyx has eaten Kael. They discuss what to do next. Izual is dubbed the champion of people. The party decides to look for Kael.
On their way to the forest, they see two comets, one going down and the upward-moving one, which explodes into stars. Izual informs the rest of the party that Aaris, the goddess of tranquility, has left the world and returned to the heavens, and Ponos, the god of suffering, has descended down onto the world.
Nyx leads the party through the forest when they hear strange grunts coming from the south. They sneak towards the noise and realise they hear ogres chanting from the other side of the river. They leave the river and go to Nyx's hidden cave. Kael is there, tied up on the floor holding a card, and Manfred is holding a candle. Nyx takes Kael's magic shovel and they return to the clearing.
In the clearing, they find a priest talking to peasants about the gods. The priest prophesizes the arrival of Jexel and suggests a grand feast in his name. Jun and Izual convince the people to dig trenches on the east side of the river instead. The party works away on fortifications while Nyx observes. Abaddon asks Malkis to magically create the trenches, Malkis scolds him.
In the evening, a war-painted ogre armed with a shield and a spear comes from the forest, alone. Jun offers the ogre a peaceful resolution, the ogre refuses and the fight starts. Ogre chants some words and a sphere of darkness appears in front of them. Abaddon casts on the edge of the darkness. A mist seeps out of the darkness, slowly, takes a solid form of the ogre and it runs towards the party. The ogre immediately knocks Jun out, Abaddon drags and stabilises him. Izual blinds the ogre with and the ogre, it runs away and trips into the pit. As Izual delivers the final blow with the spear, the spear gets permanently merged with their arm.
Voraci appears from the treeline and walks towards them. Malkis brings Izual to meet her. Voraci complains that Malkis armed the people with artifacts, pointing to Izual's spear. Malkis agrees it would be best to stop that, takes the spear, shrinks it, and puts it into his pocket. 
Malkis and Nyx argue about Izual's sister Alie(?). Since Izual lost their only spear, they take the ogre's. The party discusses their next step, decide to fortify and prepare the magic powders for the next attack. Nyx reads omens and deciphers that the next attack will be in 5–7 days. Party travels back to town.
=== January 6th===
They arrive at Acropolis, Jun coughing the whole way there. Abaddon inspects him and says he's going to be fine. 
They ask Bob about selling acid, because they don't have any money, he points them to Clara's magic shop. They sell Kael's acid to Clara and meet a gnome there, looking for cocoa leaves. Cola and Abaddon make an agreement. Nyx finds out Clara has an alchemy lab and they agree to work together. Jun purchases a tea set and some medicine for his cough, Nyx buys a bar of soap.
When they all buy their supplies, they decide to sleep. Since Jun is sick, they will spend the night in a tent, away from people. Before they sleep Nyx asks Izual for their robes, which she stained with blood during the fight. Izual begrudgingly changes into commoners' clothes, and Nyx washes the robes. The party spends the night.
