### **Part One**

The scene opened to the party staring down Kalistock as he turned to face them, 35 feet away from them and with civilians nearby. Tabernacle, who had cast *Mage Hand*, had rushed forward for the flute laying on the ground only 10 feet away.

Before anyone could move, Kalistock pulled up one of the scrolls in his hands, that he had previous taken out and the scroll burned as it unfurled. Killian, Alaerith and Seren noticed that as the scroll burned, his form seemed to stutter before settling back to normal. (A technical issue at this point in the VOD) Seren jumped into action, which those who are looking just past Seren, but not directly at him, noticed a flutter of wings beside Seren's ear as he seemed to listen to a voice before he rushed forward. Seren sidled up beside Tabernacle, in a defensive but nonthreatening stance, and tried to reason with Kalistock while he cast *Calm Emotions*, but having noticed the previous stutter of Kalistock's form, also used his proximity to try and understand what Kalistock did, but discovered nothing and his spell failed. Alaerith cast E*xpeditious Retreat* on himself, as there strategy the last time was to run from one of them, then took a few steps back and prepared himself to run if anyone else did so. Yashani looked around the street they were in and noticed a gathering of civilians who hadn't left, moved towards them and warned them to leave, but was steadfastly refused by a homeless man. Unwilling to see him hurt by his own ignorance Yashani lifted him up and moved to another side alley opposite of where Alaerith was, followed by the other individuals nearby who were concerned by her actions.

At that moment, Killian, Yashani, Quincy and Seren noticed that the second scroll that Kalistock had pulled out was now missing and Seren realized that it has been gone since the moment Kalistock's form stuttered. Tabernacle, who had been pursuing the flute Kalistock dropped and was frustrated to find it disappeared, activated his *Form of Dread*, which caused a nearby woman to run away screaming, then activated *The* *Claws of Vaust* and rushed Kalistock, and found that he ran right through him, which caused Kalistock's form to disappear entirely and the party was left in the middle of the street alone, but for the few civilians who remained.

Tabernacle demanded to know where Kalistock went, while Quincy shook like a leaf in a panic at the sight of one of Esmeria's colleagues. The party looked for their foe, when the party noticed a mark on their left palms, two suns encased in a moon, that appeared to be shattering. Seren was the only one who identified the mark, known as the Ruined Moon, which he knew that it had been noted to appear in times of war, hardship and destruction before something major happened, all situations that were not currently happening in the Skorian Empire as far as Seren was aware. Seren kept this knowledge to himself while he warned Tabernacle that maybe he should not have his claws out in the open, to which Tabernacle decided to use them to climb up the side of a building, and out of sight to drop his *Form of Dread.* Tabernacle told everyone that he didn't want to reveal his true form in front of civilians, which Seren pointed out that they likely saw him before he transformed, but Tabernacle affirmed that they likely only took notice of him after he became his undead self.

Yashani, in the side alley still, put the homeless man back down, but as she did felt an odd sensation in her left arm before feeling oddly rejuvenated before the man slumped over, unconsious in front of her. Seren, who noticed the commotion as the other civilians near Yashani started to mutter, headed over, tapped the man with his staff and healed him. The man jolted awake and scrambled away from Yashani, who then stepped back as well as she and Seren headed back to the group in the street. Quincy examined the mark further and noticed that it looks like an aged tattoo, or for RX's case an etching. Tabernacle, still on the roof and out of sight, attempted to cut the tattoo out of his palm, but even as he peeled off a layer of skin the tattoo was still there. Quincy, unaware of Tabernacle's failed attempt, tries cutting across the mark and found it bled, but nothing else really happened. Tabernacle called for help getting down from the roof over *Ob's Charm* and Killian helped him jump down with a well timed cast *Gust of Wind*. Seren reminded them all that they were in the Skorian Empire, and that they should keep the magic and odd tattoos to a minimum.

RX went to gather Tabernacle, who was complaining about his fall, threw the old man over his shoulder headed in the direction of Killian's house, but Quincy stopped and said she had people she needed to find. Seren tried to redirect her, but she insisted that while she did not have a wife, she had people she needed to see make it out of the city. Seren guided the group to a more secluded alleyway, took a moment to explain the mark and it's meaning quietly before speaking again and Seren noted the differences in the mark's color shading -

* Seren and Quincy had a purplish-maroon color
* Alaerith had a green colour
* Yashani and Killian had a red color
* Tabernacle and RX had a yellow color

Seren suggested they do what they can to hide the symbol, as the Empire was already intolerant of magic and was likely to not like this either and everyone manages to cover their palms in one way or another. Seren swapped hands that he held his staff in, Yashani adjusted the new enchanted wraps from Masq, Tabernacle put on his gloves, Quincy ripped her shirt and made a bandage, Alaerith held his hands behind his back and under his cloak, Killian used bandages shared by Tabernacle who ripped off parts of his and RX ripped his scarf to wrap around his hand. Seren then told Quincy that he understood wanting to find people in the city and asked where to go. Quincy thanked him and pointed to *The Butcheries*. Tabernacle noted that they had much to do and that he and Seren were already headed to *The Embassy*, noting that it would be the most prominent way of warning the city as a whole. Killian noted the time, confirming with Quincy that *The Misty Moon* would leave in the early morning, but they were already near *The Embassy* and would be good to start there so they could be quicker.

Quincy wondered if the people at *The Embassy* would even be awake, but Killian and Tabernacle knew that navymen and others would be partying there tonight and Tabernacle added that if they didn't hurry the sailors would likely be too drunk to be of much help. Quincy asked Seren to send a message to Damen, which he agreed to. Quincy asked him to tell Damen "to wait, that she would be sending at most six to *The Misty Moon* by morning and not to leave without them and not quite part of the Web, but necessary". After Damen responded that six would be fine, Seren asked if the six she referenced would be their group, but she apologized and said no, but told Seren he would meet them. Seren soon cast *Sending* with the message, and afterwards the group headed to *The Embassy* which was not too far away. As they walked, Killian noted that they would be around highbrow people, and hearing that Alaerith cast *Prestidigitation* to help clean them up when no one was around to see.

As they got closer, the lights and colors around them in the street grew brighter and more intense, before they were greeted at the entrance of a massive, colourful tent by two halfling women in odd checkered clothes as they balanced on balls. Most of the party reacted suspiciously, but Quincy greeted the women almost fondly and said it was nice to come back to the circus. One of them told them "Welcome to the circus and the embassy" before both women turned to talk to other people who walk past. This was the *Vayilcor Circus*, a staple of *Kra'Kash* as it became a permanent installation to the city after *The Embassy* between the Skorian Empire and the Principality of Pathu was built. Quincy told RX that if there is ever was a moment in which they could relax, she would like to take him to the circus. RX agreed it would be interesting, but he didn't know what a circus was or what happened in one. Killian and Quincy, almost in perfect sync, told him that that was the best part. The party entered the circus and were instantly bombarded with the shouts of criers trying to get their attention for different acts and booths for food and games along the way. Tabernacle grumbled that the whole thing was a sham, Quincy immediately asked if he thought he could do it, and pointed out a flame eater, which Tabernacle said was easy, but they kept moving.

While the others took in the spectacle, Seren stopped a circus worker and asked if they had seen a Tortle recently, and she told him a couple came in from *Vayilcor* a month ago. When Seren asked about solo Tortles, the woman said not for a couple years, but after Seren handed her a gold piece, she added that she saw them six years ago, though they didn't catch her name she did note you don't see glowing Tortles very often. Yashani found a food stand and was easily accommodated by a troll who took a bread roll and dunked it in sauce before they handed it over claiming she would like it, then gave a second one when she only had a silver to pay the three copper price. While she made a mess of her mask when she pushed it up as the sauce dripped down her wrists, the food was delicious.

RX looked around keenly for any acts involving electricity, but only found the fire eater while Killian stood a little ways away and impatiently waited for everyone to catch up. RX asked the flame eater how he produced the fire and the halfling man showed him a jar saying he drunk it. RX asked to try, but the man said he doesn't recommend it. As Tabernacle came forward RX explained Tabernacle's disbelief, and the halfling held out the jar for Tabernacle. Tabernacle knocked back the liquid and was instantly taken over by a ferocious burn in his stomach, but managed to spit it out in an odd mockery of the halfling man's stunt though he only managed to spit fire onto himself. The halfling commended him for managing it well enough, though RX lamented the lack of showmanship and Tabernacle got to keep half a jar of *Alchemist's Fire*. Alaerith cast *Prestidigitation* to help Tabernacle put out the little bits of fire still on his coat and beard, while Tabernacle continued to say it was a scam even as he burped bit of smoke. As they regathered around Killian, the half-elf shows his first bits of fatherhood as he frustrated attempted to corral the group into being on task, as he exclaimed about the mess from Yashani's food, Seren's glow and asked if Tabernacle was really on fire. Tabernacle expresses how impressed he was with how quickly Yashani ate her food, while Alaerith cast *Prestidigitation* to clean her up, while Seren and Killian moved the group along to *The Embassy*. While they left Tabernacle seeing one of the games insisted on wanting to play just one, that he needed a win and how he'd had a rough day. Quincy started to reply back on his comment, but saw Seren behind shook his head out of Tabernacle's view, for her to refrain from saying more.

Killian led the way from the center of the circus, to a gated path where the lights and festivities died down. Down the path was a large stone building that, those who knew it recognized as *The Embassy*. At the front doors they were greeted by a guard that Killian recognized, Josten. When Josten noted that while Killian had entry as a politician, he was trying to bring in a lot of people, but Tabernacle stepped forward, after a quick cast of *Minor Illusion*, who had made himself look the age he should be, as well as his military badges on his chest, which was enough to convince Josten who allowed them all inside. Inside was a ballroom like two story building with the first floor being open for mingling and business, while the second floor was mostly a balcony that looked down on the floor below. The far end of the building was made up of offices for those who work in *The Embassy* regularly. Inside, Quincy kepet her eyes moving over the crowd, but did not see anyone that caused her enough alarm to do anything at the moment while Tabernacle did pretty well to fit in with the crowd. Seren tried to stay near Quincy and Tabernacle, while Killian cast *See Invisibility* to keep an eye out for the devil trio, still paranoid after their run in with Kalistock.

While Tabernacle recruited Seren's help in looking for his old navy acquaintances, RX and Quincy started to make a perimeter of the room. Killian went to the second floor, scanned over the crowd and kept an eye out for Kalistock, while Tabernacle and Seren noticed a table of higher up naval officers. Killian made his way towards the offices while Tabernacle identified the new captain of *The Firesong*, a man named Balesong, amongst the officers and made his approach, while Seren told everyone the plan over *Ob's Charm* and watched Tabernacle go. Tabernacle tried a stealthier approach, but did not do well and instead switched tactics to loudly and casually insult Balesong till he overheard. The man turned, recognized Tabernacle, calling him Jonah, and after a little conversation Tabernacle brushed off the pleasantries and asked where Arbustus was and was told he went upstairs with a man named Vaultanis, someone who worked for the merchants, and discussed protection for the ships because of pirates. Tabernacle agreed, and said that pirates were still a problem for him as well and wished he could still be out hunting them now. Tabernacle then asked what Balesong had heard happen to his own ship, *The Tabernacle*, and Balesong told him he was surprised to see Tabernacle because he heard it sank. Tabernacles asked about the burial, but Balesong simply shrugged it off and said he didn't go to see it happen, and Tabernacle ended the conversation with a hug and a muttered "fuckin' prick".

As Tabernacle wandered away and regrouped with Seren, Tabernacle who focused on *Ob's Charm* for the duration of the conversation so everyone could hear everything that happened, Quincy, suddenly much more panicked than before, told the others that she and RX would continue to watch the perimeter from outside the building and dragged RX out with her. Seren asked for them to stay close and Quincy promised as much. Tabernacle asked Killian what he knew of Vaultanis and Killian admitted he did, he knew that that he dealt with international relations, but did not like the man very much. Tabernacle then apologized for what they all heard, saying he forgot he had lied to most of them about his identity for much of their time together, then reaffirmed his beliefs that these people were their best chance at helping the city. While he listened to Tabernacle, Killian noted an active patrol of guards in the hallways as he started to enter closer to *The Embassy* offices.

Killian, not spotting a decent place to hide, approached the guards, talked to them and lied about helping an Embassy employee by grabbing something from their office for them. The guards nearly caught him in the lie when they asked who he was helping, but Killian scrambled and manages to pull the name "Representative Myra" as someone he vaguely remembered knowing and the guards pointed him to the third office down the hall. While talking with the guards, Killian managed to keep an eye on the hallway behind them and swore he saw movement down the way. Killian, who noted that the movement could have been the second or third door, tries the second, but it was locked so he continued on to the third door which opened.

### **Part Two**

Back in *The Embassy*, Yashani and Alaerith watched from the upper level, while on the second floor Killian was just down the hall about to enter an office and Seren and Tabernacle walked amongst the people down below. Outside Quincy and RX took perimeter, and Quincy not quite casually mentioned that Seren mentioned he saw a water genasi and wondered if RX saw them as well. RX said he did not think he had ever seen one, and Quincy explained their elemental nature to him, but only confused him. Before Quincy could move the topic along, RX asked if there was something he should look out for, but she assured him it was fine. RX then asked why she would mention it, and Quincy very obviously changed topic and asked about the journal she lent to him, and he proudly told her he had read it cover to cover. Quincy asked for it back and falteringly said they should continue to watch the perimeter. RX noted that he was still waiting for her to explain her interest in the water genasi and she replied him that he would wait a long time.

Inside, Tabernacle turned to Seren, after worrying about having to explain himself to the others later, decided they should go find Vaultanis, and contacted Killian over *Ob's Charm* to come upstairs. The two of them headed upstairs, found Yashani and Alaerith discussing the snack Yashani had found within the circus earlier before Tabernacle described who they were looking for so they could work together. Meanwhile, Killian, in Representative Myra's office, heard the message as he stepped into the dim office, lined with bookshelves and lit by a single gaslamp. As he took a look around, Killian saw a shadow shift, and quickly stepped back to the door and locked it to prevent an escape as a voice came out

*"You still haven't killed me yet and i'm getting a bit bored."*

as Esmeria stepped forward. She mentioned the party's run in with Kalistock, while Killian retorted that Kalistock ran away. Esmeria held up her left palm to reveal the same Ruin Moon mark that they had, noting the same shared yellowish color that Tabernacle and RX and stated that he didn't run, he connected the party to them.

Esmeria went on to say the trio needed their help. When Killian asked why they would help them, Esmeria said they didn't have a choice and were going to. Esmeria explained that they needed more than just the three of them, willing or not. She then disappeared, teleported behind Killian, said

*"Let's see what happens when we leave you to Wrath."*

sunk two blades into his clavicles and caused Killian to phase out of existence. Killian started to tumble through darkness as he felt pain, like an electric shock, in his right hand, then his left, then his right food, then his right hand until his whole body tingled, vibrated and started to heat up. like he might explode from the feeling. Seren, Tabernacle, Alaerith and Yashani who were watching, were suddenly slammed by the sudden appearance of Killian who fell at their feet, with the two daggers in his shoulders as his form continued to shift and flicker on the ground. Seren grabbed the daggers and managed to remove them, which stopped the flickering, but before Seren held them for long the blades bamphed out of his hands and into Killian's. Seren noticed the stares of the people and pulled Killian to his feet, while Tabernacle asked what happened. Killian stowed the daggers and faux-sheepishly told the concerned onlookers he simply tripped and not to worry. Killian then ushered everyone down the stairs and warned Quincy and RX that the group was headed to them outside.

As the party began to gather outside, every one of them felt their left palm start to warm and heat up slowly. Seren healed Killian a little, while he also healed himself, and when they were reunited, Quincy asked if everyone was feeling the pain in their palm, which everyone acknowledged, but Tabernacle was confused why they weren't inside working to warn people. Seren asked Killian where the daggers came from, and Killian explained that Esmeria was here, that she wanted the party's help, but during the conversation, Alaerith's palm began to burn significantly worse than before. Tabernacle suggested Alaerith to touch Tabernacle with the mark, wondering if it might relieve the pain by expending the energy like what they thought happened with Yashani to the homeless man earlier. While this was being debated, Quincy's hand began to burn as well. Seren reacted by pushing out his aura, not caring who might see, and Killian cast *Fog Cloud* in an attempt to hide the group while Seren's glow was active. As RX started to feel pain, Quincy asked what Esmeria wanted and Killian said that whatever the trio's plan was, they couldn't do it with just three people and Yashani suggested they leave quickly as possible.

As Yashani's hand started to burn, Killian stepped out of the *Fog Cloud* to check their surroundings. Tabernacle asked for a blade, which Quincy agreed to as she handed him her dagger. Just as Tabernacle's hand begins to burn, he activated his *Form of Dread*, which turned his wrist bony and tried to cut through it, but the dagger wasn't enough damage to make it work and the burn persisted. Yashani insisted they didn't have time and Quincy asked Killian for the least populated area to wait this out, but Killian wanted to head back to his house for his weapons. As Seren's hand also began to burn, the party saw a flash in their minds, of fire and a feminine cackle with a demonic undertone before the vision faded. When they all come to, they smelled smoke in the air and turned to find *The Embassy* had caught fire and was spreading quickly. People ran out of the building screaming and chaos was all around them as the party scrambled to think of what to do to help. Quincy admitted she was afraid that any attempt they made to help will be twisted into something bad, while RX pulled out a piece of timber from his pack, and brought it to his marked palm, but found it didn't set it aflame.

Seren cast *Shape Water* and started to wet the circus tent entrance as best he could before telling the others to run to Killian's house and the party made their way. As they went, all but Alaerith, looked back and saw the back portion of *The Embassy* explode in a fiery blaze. RX and Killian, managed to catch a glimpse of the top of the 200 foot tall circus tents, saw Kalistock as he spun runes in the air, which caused flames to follow wherever he turned. RX pointed him out to the others, calling Kalistock the "matchstick", Quincy and Tabernacle instinctively went for weapons, but Quincy held back with the memory of their earlier encounter, along with the reasoning of Killian and Yashani. Tabernacle stood firm they should fight and defend the city. Seren had a moment of trying to think of a way to face Kalistock, but found getting to him was near impossible from the ground, as Quincy repeated to Tabernacle what she told RX, that they were no use to anyone if they were dead, though RX asserted that they were of no use to anyone at all at that moment. As the fire continued to spread as they argued, Alaerith started to cast *Shape Water* to put out as much of the nearby fires as he could, while Tabernacle continued to be defiant that he would not stop, activated his *Form of Dread* and cast *Shape Water* to start putting out fires as well. Yashani and Quincy started to move people out of the tent and other houses, while Quincy then urged the people to cross the river.

Seren, Alaerith and Tabernacle's combined effort allowed more civilians to escape the worse of the blazes, while Tabernacle focussed on putting out people who were on fire, but noticeably found there were very few with that problem, surprisingly so as they would have expected more casualties from something like this already. Killian and Quincy continued to move people out of the tent, while Yashani and RX still directed people and whil Seren, Tabernacle and Alaerith kept closer to the fire and kept their cast of *Shape Water* up to help as best they could, but soon reached the point there was nothing else they could do. When Quincy realized that the people she was hoping to find were in the immediate danger zone of the spreading fire, and pleaded with Killian to come with her to find them, which he agreed to as they doubled back. The approached *The Wandered Eye* and found it was already on fire as an older half elven woman came running out, followed by five other women. As Quincy and Killian ran up, they were spotted by one of them who called out for Quincy and ran up to hug her. Quincy told the woman, who she called Kaz, everything would be alright, and told them she would take them to a ship to leave the city. Quincy told Killian if they could take these people to *The Misty Moon*, Quincy could be ready to do anything else knowing they were alright and Killian agreed, so they headed off.

Back at *The Docks*, they managed to locate the rest of the party, who had come there when they realized there was nothing more they could do at the *Vayilcor Circus*. As they took in the six newcomers Yashani asked where Aarcanii was. When told they didn't make it there Alaerith cast *Expeditious Retreat* and to Killian's home, along with Yashani activated *Step of the Wind* as she ran in frustration thinking she had been left there. They soon made it in record time, crashed inside and found Aarcanii sitting down with a book. Alaerith explained that they needed to go and asked Aracanii if she could be quick, and she quickly dispelled her *Disguise Self* to reveal her spider abdomen. Alaerith suggested that it might scare people a bit. Yashani collected Killian's halberd, but ignored his rusted scimitar while Alaerith asked Aarcanii if she could transform into a creature he could carry, carry her back, who in response *Wild Shaped* into a spider, climbed up on his shoulder, called out for Yashani before they both ran back to *The Docks*.

Back at *The Docks*, Tabernacle asked who Quincy's friends were and RX questioned her about the water genasi, and she attempted to change the topic by telling him there was a much prettier genasi right there. Tabernacle asked Killian if he would like him to check on Samara, and when given the nod, soon saw she had indeed arrived at her destination, which was a rustic cabin sort of place, with her feet up and a cup of tea, before Hobble knocked it out of her hand as a warning of what happened in the city. Meanwhile Quincy introduced the party to Kaz, the genasi who's hand she was currently holding, Fren, Lily, Tink, Es and Antra before explaining that Fren was the one who employed her before she disappeared with the party for a week. It's then that Alaerith, Yashani and Aracanii returned to *The Docks* and came to a stop. The party saw the waves of people come over the bridges, as they yelled and cried as more of the city on the other side of the river begins to burn. Quincy started to hurry everyone onto *The Misty* *Moon*, but Seren stopped as he looked out over the crowd of suffering people and his heart broke before Tabernacle gently guided him to the ships. They saw that The *Firesong* and the *Sapphire Star* had already disembarked and were leaving when Quincy announced their incoming to the crew of The *Misty Moon* as they climbed aboard.

As people rushed around the deck as they prepared the ship to leave, Quincy spotted Damen, asked if the ship could carry anymore civilians before they went. Quincy said there should be room in the cargo hold since they don't have a shipment at the moment, but Damen regretfully informed her that its all full. Tabernacle demanded they drop the cargo, insisting people's lives were in danger, but Damen turned on him and told him the cargo *was* people. Quincy told Tabernacle she would explain later but for now she told the others to do their best to stay out of the way while she helped her crew. Damen called on anyone who could help on the ship should make themselves useful. Tabernacle activated *The* *Claws of Vaust*, helped pull up the anchor, while Quincy and Killian headed for the ropes and helped to bring up the sails. Yashani held a death grip on the railing, having never been on a boat before, while Seren cast *Light* and used his own glow to help people see.

*The* *Misty Moon* kicked off from the dock and started to move down the river and away from the burning city of *Kra'Kash*.

1. ↑ Mechanically this was 3 temporary HP
2. ↑ It's explained that Killian's house and *The Docks* where *The Misty Moon* was positioned, was on the opposite side of the river from the *Vayilcor Circus* and the fire, which was why *The Wandered Eye* was a priority for Quincy as it was in the danger zone.
