New Necromancer

Jill

Dyani

Gigs

Lux

Dyani and Gigs were minding their own business in the woods when suddenly a very wounded Jill arrived on horseback. Dyani and Gigs healed her and brought her to an Inn where Lux was staying. Jill told them that Blažej had resurrected her dead family, Billy, Ephraim, her mother, and her own dead Δbody. When she arrested Blazej for it, She claimed that she saw Tarthurac come and break Blazej out, and Blazej's zombies put her in this wounded condition.

Gigs and the group decided to help her, and Gigs said talking to Tarthurac would be the best idea. Dyani got on a nearby rooftop just in case and Gigs went with Lux to confront Tarthurac. They found him in the forge wearing his new Sky Wolf's Armor, and doing repairs to his old armor.

Tarthurac agreed to come with them, but not after some very intimidating stare downs initiated by Lux, and reciprocated with interest by Tarthurac.

When Tarthurac was taken in for questioning, Jill threw the decapitated head of her Δself at Tarthurac to start the interrogation. Tarthurac turned the tables though and got Jill to tell him what happened. Apparently her family's bodies had been exhumed and re-animated and Blazej's coat was found at the scene. But to Tarthurac's knowledge, Blazej's body can't feel heat and therefore doesn't sweat so he would have no reason to take it off, let alone leave it behind.

In the Meantime, Blazej was at his hut, apparently having been told to stay there by someone who looked like Tarthurac. The man was disguised as a guard Named Kelro. After a brief conversation the man told Blazej to follow him and told him he had been impersonating Tarthurac. He revealed his true form of being an Elf. Apparently Blazej knew the man as he was impersonating a guard when Blazej was originally arrested. The man told Blazej to follow him and Blazej agreed.

The rest of the group went to Blazej's house to find Palar there. He had a message for Daisy from the Tabaxi Empire regarding the new Warforged State. When he found out Blazej was missing he agreed to help track him down. The group tracked Blazej through the woods to find his tracks lead into a cave. Before entering Dyani cast pass without trace on all of them to help with their stealth checks. They found a skeleton placed on top of a rune that told them to turn back as a repeatable message via the Magic Mouth Spell.

They ignored the warning and began to search the cave. They found 3 locked treasure chests and in an attempt to Open them Lux blasted them with a thunder clap, which alerted everything in the cave to their presence. A group of zombies moved in to attack. Palar told them to surrender before Lux blasted several of them with lighting to start the battle. Gigs ran in and saw the zombified remains of Billy, Ephraim, and Azban.

Gigs was shocked to see Azban's corpse, as no one knew for certain that she had died. He called for everyone else to help. Palar rushed in and having never seen Azban before thought she was just another zombie and hacked her down with his Odachi. Gigs and Dyani took care of Ephraim and Billy. The necromancer came into the room and attacked Lux to little effect. Palar told him to surrender and after a few devastating blows from Palar and Gigs, he agreed to lay down his weapon.

But as this was happening Dyani saw the dead body of Azban. She took her aim and with a devastating 152 damage turn eviscerated the necromancer, killing him instantly.

Blazej heard this going on and assumed the guild would kill him too, so he hid and turned invisible. Palar found him with his blind sight and fell for his crying child rouse. Luxur teleported them back to Alfenheim. Jill's family was laid back to rest again, and Azban was buried as well. Before that happened they used speak with dead to learn how Azban had died. She said she was killed near Lycanyon by a group of men with scorpions and chains.

During her burial, Tarthurac and Artemis tried to explain to Blazej why they killed the necromancer but he was resistant to understand.

The treasure chests the group had found contained Notes on how to perform a ritualistic version of a soul transfer. The Soul could be used to help bring Daisy back, so Blazej and Artemis set to work decoding it to try to figure out how it worked.
