WoDaD Session 12

== Title ==
Magicka and Its Odd Effects
== Recap ==
The party fights against the formidable Aberrant Earth Elemental, also known as Abee. Chi Pin manages to send JJ into a mannequin, which is weird, and in keeping with the bizarre aftermath of the magical eruption, Bran's origami servant Jeffory transforms from a tiny paper dog into a life-size origami warrior and joins the fight. Yorsog just kind of... wanders back into the party by coincidence mostly but he's a welcome reinforcement. Amros finishes the monster off with a massive fireball and after collecting themselves, they all head out towards the city of Zendarru to find a library so they can investigate what just happened.
As they walk out, the party notices that their shadows are peeling away and running around the fort as if with minds of their own. The party chooses not to fight the hopefully-temporary shadow figures, instead heading to their horses - where Amros discovers that his horse has been transformed into a Nightmare, a fiery, semi-demonic horse. Later, as the party is resting for the night, the Nightmare takes Amros on an interdimensional ride across a vibrant blue sea that stretches as far as he can see. The only thing he notices besides more blue water is a floating citadel the size of a mountain, though it appears to be abandoned and empty. As he falls into the water which is less water and more pure magicka as he's in the Azural Sea, he sends himself and his horse back to the riverside to rejoin his party. 
The next day, as they arrive in the vast camps outside Zendarru, they find that the people are afraid of open displays of magic as they make it harder to get into the "magic-free city." Guards patrol with wolves capable of sniffing out magic (known as Elusa Hounds), making sure that refugees only gain safe haven if they're untouched by magic or go through a long registration process. Bran, Yorsog, and Maria make a mature plan to properly enter the city while Amros and Chi Pin do a dumbass plan to sneak in with magic.
