Entering the religious district of Sol. There’s a lot of oracle worshippers here. Some sort of ritual happening, symbols of Metanoia key in the celebration. The trail leads through the crowd. Ambrose talking to the locals. Celebration of our new followers. Party for the two brothers that we met on the road. Met stumpy. Wants to show us what’s going to happen. Grunk.

Looking for Ogin. Trail leads out of the crowd and into the religious sect. Leads to an alley, old shrines of Amneas (nature) and Gahine (knowledge). Colder in the alley way. Found Ogin down an alley way standing over a body, the body is cold, gashes across the face. Left arm is frozen and snapped off the body. Lays next to the body with three fingers bitten off. The word ‘Market’ is carved into the severed arm. Weapons were sheathed as if he didn’t get chance to use them.

Zorbor is a member of the resistance in Sol. Sorenja shakes the body down and finds: a small wooden doll (toy depicts a growling orc) dressed in tiny jester outfit, small note “Some sort of ritual is happening in the religious districts, you should check it out, will send someone to meet you (Ogin)” signed by M.

Ambrose does a ritual and grows mushrooms from the face. Sorenja heals herself by hurting herself. More chaos.

As we leave the alley we can hear the distant yelling of Metanoia, advancing the two pilgrims. Lefty and Righty have been killed in the ritual. Large horned figure wearing red robes, blades for arms, covered in blood. Twins have been cut in half. Booming voice, “now let Metanoia grant these two new lives and be reborn in his vision”. The two bodies are pulled together, slammed back, legs and bodies are attached, their eyes are back.

Guards golden masks. Dressed in familiar robes of the librarians of time. Bits of scripture wrapped and adorning robes. Made it to the market district. See a relatively large figure wearing a cloak and hood, weaving between people. Trying to remain hidden.

MELON!

Think we found the dude, Snaeros and Merigold pincer him, creeping up, waiting for the party to consolidate. Fired a net and caught Floyd. Absolute dumb move. Floyd Tarryfoot, happy smile bakery. Apologised for assaulting him and put him back to work in the market. Snaeros leads us through an alley where the cold is, Sorenja realises it’s about 5 minutes from Ingrid’s and Olaf’s. Woman wearing an outfit of the cult of Farrah (lost daughter). Light robes cut short to shoulders, golden brassy mask covering face. There is normally a glowing light beneath the mask.

Not this time, there’s blood pouring from the holes in the mask. The body has been impaled by icicles, arms stretched out, three bottom fingers bitten off and hands are pointing again. Paper stuck to body, crazy writing, “Which way? Are you there?”. Pointing to the arts and gardens district. Sorenja uses her familiar to check the garden district.

The first body was a member of the resistance (cultist of Isuu and melanoia) , the second body is a cultist (phaaron cultist and cultist of time). Head to the gardens (cultist of isuu and cultist of time).

Papa Always Said: “A melon in the hand is worth two in the bush”.

In the gardens where the gallery was. In the tree, male Tiefling, long white hair, blood drips from the body. Had horns ripped out and stabbed into his eyes. Ogin cuts the body down. Note is written in same scrawl. Oops nice try wrong way. Immediately surrounded by robed cultists.

Finished the fight and MORK stayed in control, Ambrose gave him a whack (tap) on the chest, trying to get Merigold back. Not happening. Sorenja searches the Tiefling. Gets some chalk. Sorenja coaxes MORK out with a finger, Snaeros keeps him on track.

Head to the arts district (cultist of metanoia, another cultist of Pherrah). Managed to stuff MORK back inside. Ambrose keeps asking about MORK and it’s triggering Merigold. Sorenja gets Ollie back, we find an incredibly cold sensation in the Arts section. Bump into Floyd who gives everyone a healing potion. Find the body of a dwarf, practically steaming it’s so hot, very recently killed. Eyes gouged out, stomach opened and disembowelled.

Sorenja realizes that the intestines have been organised as a map of Sol, the main spire area has been marked with an icicle. Ambrose says the best thing to do is to sit around and wait for them to find us. Not happening. Head to the central spire with Floyd. At the spire the guards are not present. We can hear lots of talking. Scale is checking the scene with Garran. Body being crowded. Absolute mess of a body, bits everywhere. Painted in blood on the wall says “Now I have your attention”.
