Session 41

Opens with Cedric carrying Christine up the side of a hill. They are soon joined by everyone
else at the top as they plan their next action. A plan is soon formed to head over to Slir to rest and recuperate. It would be good for all of them. Suddenly, they realize that Maltri Delkona is not with them. Cedric rushes over to the hillside and notices Maltri Delkona struggling to climb up- with his one arm. Cedric tries to help him, but Delkona roughly shoves his hand away and pulls himself up. 
They go to a
nearby town, discover that they’ve been having a hard year and what not, gain
refuge with a farmer, his two daughters, and an elderly crone, in the night,
Christine awakens and discovers that the crone beheaded the two girls and is
chanting to Maltri Delkona that she “did it for him”, the farmer discovers this
brutal scene and retreats to his room, Christine follows him and tries to stop
him from committing suicide, he attacks her, but Cedric pulls him off of her, Gavros
nearly beats the crone to death, but he is stopped, they then interrogate the
crone, other than discovering that she has a tattoo of the green hand upon her
arm, she gives them no useful information, Maltri Delkona is filled with a cold
fury, he butchers her, Christine goes outside to clear her head, but along
comes a villager who sees her covered in blood, he runs off, and soon returns
with a mob of other townsfolk, they accuse her of being a witch, but she tries to
show evidence otherwise, the father is in a state of comatose, the children and
the crone are dead, with a lack of solid evidence in their favor, the townsfolk
begin to panic, and Maltri Delkona exacerbates this by transforming into a
terrifying image to scare them away, angered by this, Cedric roughly shoves Delkona
and berates him, Delkona then blasts Cedric through the wall of the farmhouse,
destroying it, he then charges at Delkona in a blind fury, before being freezed
in place by Christine, who attempts to diffuse the situation, Delkona then
engages in a furious rant directed towards Christine, telling her that she is
just trying to control everything and everyone, especially her “mad dog”,
Christine, in a fury, releases Cedric and tells him that he has the go-ahead to
teach Delkona a lesson, but Cedric realizes the truth in Delkona’s words and
instead turns on her, this is followed by an inter-party civil war, with Cedric
nearly beating Christine senseless and her narrowly escaping, Cedric then turns
his attention towards Delkona, and the two duel (though Cedric clearly has the
upper hand), Revan rushes to Christine’s aid, and then moves to intervene in
the battle, Talenia moves to Cedric’s side and defends him against Gavros, meanwhile
Draven attempts to stop everyone from freaking out, but it doesn’t really work,
Gavros accidentally sets the house on fire, after Cedric nearly shattering
Delkona’s exoskeleton, he pleads for Cedric to kill him, but Cedric shows him
mercy and evacuates him from the house, it is discovered that Draven was
mortally wounded by a piece of debris, but Revan summons the demon Coruxhur and
in an act of desperation promises him to do anything to revive him, ends with
Christine looking on in horror as Draven breathes again (June 16th- June
17th)
