Session 114: The (Other) Center of the Multiverse: Sigil, The City of Doors

The Lucky Seven have saved the Feywild realm of Prismeer and its Queen, Zybilna the Queen of Witches. In thanks, Zybilna, a future version of Bucky took a private meeting with you and offered to do anything in her power to help you that did not violate her personal ethics.

Gram requested that he would serve her from now on instead of the eldritch God-Thing, Tharizdun, but she informed him that to severe the connection to such a power would be beyond even her or most entities, however there was one she knew to be capable of such a feat. The first witch and mother of all witches: the ancient and powerful Baba Yaga. However, if Gram went to Baba Yaga for help, it would be only Zybilna’s past self, Bucky, who would be able to strike a bargain with the witch, for Bucky had something Baba Yaga would value. The aptitude to become one of her greatest students. Bucky also asked if Zybilna could undo the curse on Dorn, but she said only Queen Conmae of the Formarians, the one who had placed the curse upon him in the first place could remove it.

When inquiring as to the fate of your world, how things had been since you left, Zybilna informed you that while it had only been 3 days since you arrived in the Feywild, on the material plane 3 years had passed. Though you were tempted to visit the Moonlit King for one of his incredibly rare diamonds to help Rensig acquire the necessary spell components for the gate spell, you decided with the time dilation that leaving The Feywild sooner than later was of the utmost importance.

With several possibilities discussed, including returning to either Thylea to check on the friends you had left there, or to Athkatmon to see the state of things, you finally settled on traveling to where Balistar had reported seeing a Spelljammer—a ship capable of traveling through realities crash—to hopefully salvage the ship. The location described by Balistar was on the Paraelemetnal Plane of Ooze/Mud near wear it bordered the Plane of Earth. Zybilna knew of this location and said your best bet was to approach through a portal in Sigil.

Gram had heard of the fabled city of Sigil at the center of the multiverse. Known as The City of Doors for its innumerable portals to other locations, but also as the cage for the inability to teleport out of it through conventional magic, there was a portal from which Sigil’s waste was deposited on the plane of Ooze into what had become an enormous island of trash. While disgusting, it was also the safest bet for finding solid ground in the plane of ooze.

Sigil, as it turned out, was also necessary to visit if one was to enter the endless plane of order also at the center of the Multiverse, overlapping but separate, the realm of Mechanus where Dorn’s soul was now trapped in one of the pieces of The Rod of Seven Parts.

With a plan in place, and Rensig returning from helping Prince Flycatcher of the Bullywugs, Zybilna gave you access to a portal to Sigil in her palace. Now you are in the city of doors. Gram has completely forgotten his time in the Feywild. You appear to be in a dark, boarded up long unused clothing store. After two unsuccessful attempts to reach someone on the material plane Muffy has contacted the professor for whom it has been three years, and the last he knew of you, you had more or less saved the world.
