Session 21

## Notable Events

* Nova reports back to Haldir about pit creatures - Nova mums out in the woods looking for the devil still at this point, Nova and Marie go to get stuff ready for the funeral
* Meanwhile, the rest of the party reach lawnock and look for lodgings - Pearl and Meadow stay outside of town, Justice, Dimitri, The dragon knight, and the ashwoods stay at an inn
* They get some information from the innkeeper - Most of the town is travelling to dracksrock for Emperor's day, Lord Busshel is the lord of this town, he's not seen out often (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!). And a dragon attacked a town in the east (possibly Dawntide or Turlock?).
* Those staying in the inn have a hearty dinner and a drink - Justice brings Clarence his dinner and tucks him in
* Cuts back to Nova - a somber funeral is taking place for the 7 rangers who died to the pit creature the party killed. The whole commune is grieving and shocked (Many here are very long lived, and death is a bit of a rare occurrence).
* Nova gets a chance to talk to her mothers - she finds out that they named her Nova, not her biological parents (there is a chance her true name is something different), Damaia attacked Novadad first in their encounter ~20 years ago (his motivations in this moment remain a mystery)
* Meanwhile, Dimitri and Dragon Knight get immensely drunk - we find out a bit of information about DK's group with Harold and Regulus the "Old Bloods"
* Hired by Jaindall, they killed an Empyrean that was threatening the Jaindallian's God. They were there for months in the celestial plane, but a week in the Material plane. He mentioned that a lot of domains that would usually have a god were empty
* They both joked that the Party could be called the "New Bloods" (but fr tho it could be cool :eyes:)
* Both stumble back to their rooms, but dimi is chased out by DK's snoring, passes out in Justice's room
* MEANWHILE - JUSTICE IS ~~GETTING IT ON WITH THE MILF ;)~~ having dessert :). He returns to his room at dawn and successfully deceives a passed out Dimitri.
* The next day, Nova begins to head out after some tender moments with her family and partners. Finds out a scouting party is going out to investigate the pit and possibly make contact or observe the armored beings. Nova also gives her half of the sending stone to Marie, wanting to keep in contact with her family while she goes of on her quest
* Meanwhile in Lawnock, Justice gets a message from Augustine - He knows about the Adeline and the dragon knight situation, but so does Portsin. Justice responds as a friend, not an employee, teasingly calling Augustine Vinny.
* Nova Meets up with Meadow and Pearl at the town gates (also gets harassed by some guards but Meadow bribed them)
* The Party converges, they set out towards Dracksrock - They give Joseph's carriage to Philly and Clarence to help them on their journey to Jaindall and The Party + DK hitchhike to Dracksrock
* Nova turns DK into a mouse before entering dracksrock to hide him from the authorities
* Nova, Pearl and Meadow find lodgings at The Molten Pig, where they turn DK back into a human
* Justice speed shops with Dimitri in tow
* Dimitri and his dad spot each other, he sends Andrei over with samples
* The party meets up and forces Dimitri to say hello to his dad
* Dimitri helps his dad with the stall, is told that something has happened back home that he will explain later
* The rest go to a pirate themed fishing game where the vendor mentions the Mosstar Trio, which greatly upsets Pearl. We learn the vendor is named Rumdall (sp?) and that he was once in their crew. He suggests meeting Heracule Featherfeather in the north for information on his parents. We also learn the Mosstar's crew did not learn of their captains' passing

##### Augustine's Message

* **Augustine:** Justice. Unfortunately, I've found nothing regarding your children nor their whereabouts. I know about the Dragon Knight. Though, Portsin knows too. And.... Happy Emperor's Day.
* **Justice:** ....................... Thank you.... Thank you, Vinny! .. I appreciate that. I will send you a letter. You too. Don't drink too much of that southern wine.
