Session 89 "Dorn and Diane's Date"

Session 89: Dorn and Diane’s Date

With The Lucky Seven’s incredible take down of the massive airship from the Nine Hells you went to Balistar’s Citadel, where after meeting up with Ebon and Ezree, you eventually found your way to Balistar himself. Balistar relayed that Bob was now better connected to the skull, and that given some time, would likely be back after a long rest (which he was). As long as Bob is not killed on the Plane of Air he will always come back to the skull.

Given the power you have collectively displayed and your most recent stunning victory, Balistar believes that you could do something that to his knowledge only one other group of adventurers had done before: breach the incomparably enormous ever swirling storm thousands of miles to the south of the continent of Faerûn, the stuff of legends, known to sailors as Umberlee’s Asshole. With Ezree’s enthusiastic help, Balistar relayed his suspicions that somewhere inside that massive storm either one or two pieces of the Rod of Seven Parts could potentially be found. That a group of adventurers known as The Doom Raiders who had two pieces of the rod were the only to ever make it out, but to his understanding they had returned one or both pieces of the rod lighter. Specifically he spoke of a piece known as The Rotor of Return, a powerful weapon in it’s own right, much like the Mace of Disruption, which might be useful in your current efforts even before fully assembly the Rod. Ezree lauded you all for doing something that had, to her knowledge never been done before, collecting three pieces of the Rod--artifacts of holy reverence to her people the Aaracockra. If you were to make it through Umberlee's Asshole Balistar said you would need a very good ship and a very good crew. Gram knew where he might be able to find both, in the pirate city of Freeport in the Nelanthar Isles. Balistar knew of a teleportation circle that was still intact on a small abandoned island in the Nelanthar Isles known as Nemesser Island. He gave you the sequence for the teleportation circle and Ezree who said she wanted to join you brought out a satchel with 10 pieces of diamond infused chalk for casting the teleportation spell.

After the meeting while mulling over your next move you all got into the hot tub and finally had a chance to relax. In the time it took Rhys to take off his armor, Bucky cast identify on the Mace Rensig now carries only to find out that the entity three of you had encountered in the piloting mental space of the Devil's ship was now housed within the mace. The Mace itself appears to have a number of fantastic properties and the potential to grow stronger. While in the hot tub, the various Ice Mephits of Balistar’s Citadel attended to your every need bringing bird seed for Mrs. Brunkle and strong drinks for Rensig, for Bucky a gilded flower worth 300 gp, and for Dorn and Gram? LSD. After a pair of semi-bad trips it was off to bed, and then in the morning you all left. First stop? The Citadel of Light to pick up your crew.

After somewhat cruelly ditching Ebon, Rensig teleported you all to The Citadel of Light and as soon as you arrived Gram started hatching a plan. Before leaving this Citadel he was going to set up a morning time date with Dorn and Diane and everyone was in on it. After several hurried minutes of prepping and some rather confused members of The Order of the Dawn basically letting you do as you saw fit given your somewhat celebrity status as the ones who took down the Devil’s Air Ship, the date was set, and with 50 or so people in the great hall of the Citadel of Light with them, Dorn and Diane had both of their respective first dates as the rest of you excitedly looked on making it as awkward as humanly, gnomishly, tieflingishly, and half-elfishly possible with Bip showing up just in time to catch the end of it and relay his relief to Gram that you were all still alive. He also told Gram of the terrible power of the woman with wings who you had seen in the skies above athkatmon flanked by riders on hellfire steeds, she being the one who had killed the sleeper but with a single word. After an awkward public kiss and then another private kiss between Dorn and Diane you were all off to Nemesser as Rensig drew another teleportation circle.

After arriving on Nemesser, Rhys summoned Grin into his embodied form and you went off to explore the small island. The most noticeable feature was another tower at the other end of the island. At first it seemed long uninhabited, but before long a halfling showed up, and while seemingly friendly at first, things took a turn for the sinister when the halfling the furniture, and the tower itself tried to consume you. But you’re The Lucky Seven and along with your ever growing entourage, you proved too much for the entities trying to make a meal of you. With some rather significant wealth and legendary magic ring taken out of the collapsing enormous monster building at the last second, you have all taken a moment to catch your breath aka short rest.
