## **Summary**

### **Recap**

*"The Party have travelled to the ancient temple of H'esper in the Valley of Storms on the continents of Voksar, in pursuit of resolving the terrible storms that plague the land there. and acquiring a powerful tool in their battle against Kalus Starbane and Hadar. Accompanied by the mysterious Johan, a figure who had appeared to be connected to the party's quest and had assisted them several times before, they made their way through a magical storm and managed to reach the temple in one piece, learning that the cause of the storms was a powerful tempest dragon, a primordial being that had been attacked centuries ago and driven into a mad nightmarish coma. Overcoming obstacles and intense trials, the party prepared to enter the inner sanctum, but were approached by a female figure - a projection of Xarkira, commander of the Valkyrian empire and cause of the Tempest Dragon's suffering. Xarkira offered a way to kill the Tempest Dragon as well as a way to complete her* Control *spell - threatening the party if they didn't do as she requested. The party refused, and told Xarkira if she wanted the dragon, she would have to come and deal with it herself. Inside the inner sanctum, the party found the mighty Tempest Dragon near to breaking free of the chains that bound it, and quickly began to cleanse the corrupting magic that plagued its mind. Johan, able to enter the dragon's dream, along with Aila, Nova and Lucius, slew the nightmare creatures, while Sentry and Quill healed the corrupted magic and removed Xarkira's devices. Free of the nightmares and the corruption, their friend Johan bid them farewell and vanished, his essence becoming one with the dragon's as it revealed it was called Johandrius, and presented Quill with a powerful spear, a Spear of Oracles, and a promise to aid the party when called.*"
