Session 77

The party continues to explore Votuum's Spiral, finding new interactions between some items and an awful lot of spiders.

## Summary

Having located the book that would take them from the garden to the library, Teer attempted to retrieve it from the bush using Mage Hand. A werewolf emerged, stealing it from him and running away with it. Sors cast Command, telling him to drop it, which he did. Teer retrieved the book, and the group returned to the library. Curious whether they could witness the changing of the Spiral from day into night, Teer and Sors remained in the library while Ephemera lit the candelabra in the dining hall. While there, they noticed that cobwebs were beginning to form in the upper corners of the ceiling. They requested that Aedon help remove them since they could fly. They did, casting Fireball to burn them all away. After waiting a short period, they regrouped and discovered that it seemed to affect the doorways rather than the rooms themselves. They continued their experiment by attempting to modify the garden during the day, but no changes seemed to have been made to the garden at night.

They proved their suspicions about the toy boat in the fountain by using it to return to the lake town. They continued searching the buildings there, finding a healing potion in the tavern, a lot of paperwork, and a skeleton wearing a pirate hat. They discovered that the ship manifest in the dock office noted a single ship serviced by the docks, a ship called the Drake Tooth. It would periodically go to "the new mines" and back, but occasionally would also go to "the meeting place." The ship had left one last time to the meeting place, but had not yet returned. The group boarded the ship at the dock, noticing as they did so that it was the Drake Tooth.

They were transported to a sort of transitory plane. The air was thick with purple clouds and lightning, the night sky above cracked like the lens of the telescope. They were unable to locate anything there, and so returned to the docks. Kiono suggested that Teer complete the partially carved ship at the cottage by the telescope to put in the fountain in the night garden, as it lacked one. She also went through the constellation book she had found earlier, and realized that the constellations appeared to be related to the other rooms in the Spiral, or perhaps to other locations elsewhere that were like the Spiral. They checked the log book and discovered that the ship had been marked as returned from the meeting place. They wrote their next destination as the new mine, and boarded the ship again.

They arrive in the entrance to a mining system. Though there was no evidence of recent passage, they explored the place regardless. As they explored, they were attacked by giant spiders, which attempted to drag them down a deep pit from whence they came. Despite everybody's best efforts, Sors was dragged down to the bottom. While Teer and Ephemera fought off the spiders above, Sors found herself face-to-face with a giant spider queen. She cast Harm on it, causing it immense pain, but the spider attacked her back, paralyzing her and putting her in a large chest attached to her back. Inside, Sors eventually became unparalyzed and discovered that she was in the chest along with Concludion and an injured Kitano. Above in the lid of the chest were lots of cobwebs and what appeared to be empty spider eggs. Outside, Teer and Ephemera intentionally, slowly lowered themselves into the pit to rescue Sors. They too landed on the giant web of the spider queen, seeing only a single angel statue created by Sors' Ring of Blinking.
