The session began with Entropy and the Saren Rae twins entering the Annoying Couple Inn. Noticing the new person at the back who was covering their eyes, Entropy immediately questioned the group on their new friend. What followed was a quick summary of Gray's research, and their statement that it is rare to see people of Entropy and Ash's ilk.

With that question hanging in the air Egan came out of the kitchen offering food, returning to start cooking in the kitchen. The Tribe and Gray continued to talk a little about what was going on, with Entropy pulling Evresh aside and a discussion about if they could trust Gray. Evresh was not sure, but was definitely not on board with Entropy's idea to stab Gray right away.

The innkeeper returned then asking if the group has been down by the Docks. The group, a bit reluctantly said they had been, and the innkeeper then told them about whispers about unsavory activity, undead and ghost ships down at the docks. Lost souls were rumored to float around the docks, with reports of some attack, and that the Guards were doing what they could to protect the district.

This piqued Ash's interest, and upon further questioning it sounded like this is his prior ship and crew haunting the docks, and that the Tribe would definitely need to deal with this. After this conversation moved back to Gray, and they asked for more information about what we were up to. Looking at Evresh for the sign to stab Gray, Entropy shared hi story about Dispater, and his vision of the alternate material plane. This definitely interested Gray who seemed even more locked on Entropy than before, to Entropy's chagrin. Gray asked how Entropy knew Dispater, leaving Entropy trying to dissemble a bit and not answer outright.

With that quick lull in the conversation, a crash was heard above, breaking glass, and flopping on the floor was Emmiline. Breathlessly she stammered out that there was a huge dog outside the inn, with smoking feet. Fearing the worst, the Tribe lined up with Entropy the Devil adjacent in the front. Upon opening the door the Tribe saw a hell hound, 2 to 2 and a half times as large as the largest of Haster's hounds with a silver spiked collar and coal red hot eyes looking at them, and slobber that melted paving stones. Seeing entropy the dog kneeled and Entropy groaned.

The Tribe then had a conversation out in the open with Arktenite attempting to block the view of the street of the horse sized flaming dog and our conversation. Seeing a letter on the neck, Entropy took the letter and read it out loud. The letter was an invitation from Dispater for Entropy and Allyria to come visit him in Hell for a talk. The Tribe talked more, and agreed to return to the inn and have dinner. Thinking fast Entropy smashed a masqueregg on the hounds head, telling it to turn into a more nondescript creature. The hound quickly transformed into a very dapper squirrel with a tophat.

The Tribe and dapper squirrel then returned to the Inn for dinner, With Entropy swiping some bacon from Vimak to give to the Squirrel, who proceeded to eat it with a neck opening jaw maneuver that was very disconcerting. Vimak and Emmaline then had a heart to heart talk about their past, and dishonestly about her not telling Vimak that she worked for the Clasp. Eventually they came to sort of an understanding, and Emmaline mentioning she had a relic to connect with SarenRae and she had split into three parts across the City, with two missing now. One being on an island surrounded by the undead hoard, and the second being at a safehouse up the coast that was also being harassed by pirates. She did mention a specific insignia she has noticed though, that Ash noted was definitely related to his old ship.

The conversation then turned to the invitation to Hell, with the Squirrel looking a bit impatient about getting to it, with Me disgruntled, mumbling that she never got invited anywhere. Finally, Allyria and Entropy decided it was time to go, they turned to the squirrel, touched his necklace and disappeared, reappearing quickly in Hell at a beautiful Ball. At attention in the hall were Hell Knights aplenty and dancers in stunning attire, and at the center, Dispater himself dancing with someone Allyria knows.

This was Kayna, someone Allyria met long ago, but who refused to help her long ago when she asked for help. Quickly the song ended, Kayna disgustedly turned away from Allyria, and Dispater turned to Entropy and Allyria, and with a flourish Allyria became her true self clothed in the most beautiful of gowns, thanks to Dispater's influence.

With that the session ended, back in Hell again.
