## Events

* The party makes their way out of the dungeon. Before they go, they are told that someone named Lina may have answers about the dungeon.
* As the party moves to leave, a snake-woman makes her way out from below the party along with the troll from before. Claudia magically induces blindness in her and the party flees as she screams in abyssal.
* The party happens across an obsidian quasi-elemental in their travels. Nearby, Tholgar finds what appears to be an ioun stone. Upon picking it up, he finds his movement speed is stifled.
* Claudia's birthday arrives. While the party travels, she talks of taking 10 shots for reaching 100 years old. Lusine says the party should wait until they arrive in the city to celebrate. Saber begins pouring Claudia shots from behind his back, and she is soon severely inebriated. Tholgar begins carrying her.
* Finally, the party makes it to the Golden City. The party waits in a line, catching many looks of disdain, until they make it to the front. The lieutenant at the gate stops the party, making disparaging remarks about Lusine. Saber argues with the man until the guard alongside him runs off to fetch the captain.
* The captain arrives and demotes the lieutenant to a trainee for his rudeness. He offers to take the party's papers to the castle, and recommends the party a place to stay.
* Upon arriving at the inn, the party happens across a shimmering woman with a velociraptor. She argues with the innkeeper a bit about allowing the velociraptor to stay in the inn. Lusine steps in and helps the woman find accommodations.
* Claudia begins drunkenly interviewing the woman, who gives her name as Aislinn Nolani. Eventually Claudia passes out, and Tholgar takes her up to her room.
* The party goes out to fix the curse caused by the fake ioun stone, identified as a Loadstone. The party buys a potion of remove curse to pour on the stone.
* The party then proceeds to a magic shop to appraise and sell the longsword they found in the dungeon. They split the profits, then return to the inn, where they bring Claudia down and enjoy a meal with Aislinn.
* The next day, the party goes to get fitted for noble clothes after receiving an invitation to the castle. They then go to a spa to be pampered and look their best.
* The next day, Saber goes off on his own. The party goes to the library, then Saber later meets up with them. The party splits up to research different deities - Lusine researches the Moon God, while Claudia helps Saber and Tholgar research the Magic God and Mad God, respectively.
* Later, the party is taken to the palace for their meeting. There, they are met with the Steward, Tad, while a man and a woman play chess next to the throne. Tad offers minimal aid for the Nosk Raiders. Then, the man wins the chess game and stands between the throne and the party.
* The man, Primarch Ruxin, addresses the party. He tells the party he will give them their aid, but only if they deal with a Cult of the Rift camp near the border. He makes statements that imply he has been closely following the party, and knows great deal about history. This includes the history of the Moon and Magic Gods. Saber's interest is piqued, and before Ruxin disappears, he asks if he could ask the Primarch more when they return from their mission. He agrees, then laughs as he leaves.
* The woman, recognized as the "Feral Girl" from before, is Auxin. Auxin follows the party out of the palace.
* Upon exiting, the party notices that the mountains around the party shift. They glimmer with gold for a second before settling. Auxin confirms the party's suspicion that this is actually Ruxin, encircling the city.
* Auxin asks if anyone would care for a game of chess. Claudia agrees, and instantly Ruxin grabs her and flies into the air. Saber reaches after them, before whimpering that he wanted to play.
