Pain in the Neck

"Pain in the Neck" is the 38th session of Campaign 2.0.
== Summary ==
* Dungeon time! Into the castle we go, and in its courtyards we face off against, like, 6 or so vampires and three giant hulking crow monsters.
* We beat them all, thankfully, then ascend the stairs and enter a room. In it sits a obelisk with a giant, one-eyed skull seated on top of it. Magic runes that no one can seem to recognize line the bottom of the platform.
* Okay, that’s dope. We turn to enter the next room and WOOSH! Daisy disappears out of existence.
* Sulelia yanks out her sending stone and messages her! Daisy replies that the party should touch the statue, and that she’s currently talking to some scary looking dude. Hearing that, Sulelia plants her hand on the statue and promptly vanishes.
* Max propels himself off the wall and tries to knock it over with BRUTE MUSCLY STRENGTH, but upon touching it vanishes, too.
* Thomal’s got this. Check it. He readies himself beside the pillar and places both hands on both sides of th— Oh my God, he’s gone too.
* Bryna hears a message from Daisy ring in her head. Touch the statue, she says! But as soon as she receives the message, she’s shot at with a sleeping ray from the skull’s one eye socket and crumples to the ground.
* Angeal and Kian are pretty sure this is a trap. Kian promises to stand guard out here should anything happen. Bryna awakens, and her and Angeal touch the statue.
* Cool, everyone’s here! The party teleported one by one into another room. In it stands the Fowl Lord, who looks cool as fuck... Mysterious and dark brooding and sexy, and has a cape of raven feathers and brass armor.
* He’s been watching us closely and recognizes Angeal as the shepard of the whole mission. He asks of her to hear him out and listen to his side of the story. Angeal supposes she can bear the drivel; “Fine. Bore me.” He explains that the raven queen is kinda spiraling into madness, and is only trying to help those she turns her wrath onto.
* With this newfound information, Angeal decides... she doesn’t care. Unless... Angeal asks if the Fowl Lord has the power to reunite her with her mother, just this once. He admits that he doesn’t. With nothing to give her, Angeal can’t afford to let him live.
* Well, that’s just how it goes. as for the rest of the party... do we have our doubts? ...Yeah. Do we do anything about it? Nope! And with that, the Fowl Lord releases two giant wings from his back, and we roll for initiative.
