Game Log 2022-05-05

The session began with the Auction continuing:

* 1)  Bugman is first and buys 2
* 2)  Vaughn buys 5 scrawny children
* 3)  Jeffrey Epstien buys 3 children
* 4)  Captain Kunt takes a pouch of gold from Aaron and buys one child

Then we reach an intermission, butlers etc come in with silver platters with drinks on them.  Only Shantov and Widona and Aaron and us have not yet bought at auction. ENtropy and Me both notice a deep conversation between Captain Hardback and Aaron.  Aaron has a green emerald gem on his chest, pulsing.  No flesh on him at all, just metal, and at his hip are two fine handguns.  Aaron says "It should be working by midweek captain", Captain says it took him a long time to get his face back.

With that a door creaks open, hand pushes door back a blond woman sheepishly opens door, coming around in blue sundress calf high boots, we recognize Juliana, from temple to Saren rae we had rescued from the Baby Hydra. Juliana says we left before the mines were taken care of, the things in the case came out, the villge is gone, if not for Aaron bringing her brother back.  Aaron and his band fought off the rock creatures and brought them to safety.  Juliana believes Aaron is here doing good things.  Juliana believes that Aaron has good intentions for the children.

Me and Entropy take this opportunity to get to know one of the more grotesque people at the auction, Mr. Vaughn. Mr. Vaughn does mining, runs a company, does mining deep in the earth on the eastern side of the summit peaks.  Vaughn noticed that Aaron gave coins to the Tortle fella.

Entropy and Me try to get some more information out of Vaughn, learning that he is staying within the city limits at the Tricky Oyster.  The conversation ends with Entropy promising to visit Vaughn, and the auction restarts, two scruffy mousy elfen twins, Onyx Shnatov, Widona comes over the top. Shantov then purchases four larger older children.  Aaron purchases a 3 year old, and nods to Juliana who goes up and pulls the three year old away.

At end of auction Lisim announces a round of applause for Entropy and his mentor has already purchased his lot of children and will be escorted to them soon.  Widona then the captain, then everyone else leaves, leaving just the two of us with Lisim.  Me and Entropy start walking towards the warehouse, which is a Horse barn out back in the stables in each paddock is ten children, with 4 paddocks full.

There is a large burned troll guarding the warehouse / children who calls Entropy a rapscallion, who caused the family so much pain.  After a little back and forth, the Troll Formally bows and turns to go, hands dragging on the floor.  Almost right on queue a Silver arch opens with a wiley coyote tunnel opens.  Me picks out ten weakest children and puts them in the pillow foot under some hay.  16 go through the portal of the remaining 30 children freel walk through the portal.  Entropy talks to the rest of the Children, giving them an... "Inspiration...al?" talk and then take they up the coins and go.  Portal stays open, as if waiting for the other ten children to entry, and then closes.  Me in the pillow fort with the Children and she and Entripy

Me mentions to bring the kids to the temple to SarenRae, and they come up with a plan, Entropy will cause a diversion letting Me and the children escape. With that, the plan takes form, Entropy got the attention of some guards, ran into the carriage hours and Entropy drops his pipe bomb into the carriage house and levels the building with the three guards completely killed.  a concussive silence lands on the grounds as more guards begin to chase Entropy nd a fine red mist settles on the property.

Half second building floats in air and building crashes down, three stories fall down on them.  As that happens a group of 5 guards see me and run towards me,  Entropy gets 120 feet ahead of the guards and a chase ensues.  Me, leading the children comes across a fallen tree blocking their path, and she goes giant ape throws the log, leads the children off to the temple.

Entropy thinks he has escaped the guards, and jumps into the sewers making his way back to Mimay's mothers house.  When he arrives he quickly runs in to where Gray and Ash and Arkenite are, finding only a sleeping Arkenite.  Rapidly waking Arkenite, Entropy learned that Ash was at the temple where Me leads the kids to, and that Gray is missing.

Flash to the temple, and Ash talks to a priest about the children, leads priest to Me with the children.  Me offers to give Sarraia some coin and have her, convinces Sarraia to maybe bring the kids to Mother, Me finds a sell sword and a nanny for the kids.

Back to Entropy visiting Arkenite.  quickly talks to Mimay tells her to deal with her mother and reach out to the clasp.  Arkenite given 30 second summary, entropy hides himself as a twin and Arkenite and him as twins make their way to the temple.
