Tomespire

The Pinnacle of innovation, Tomespire is home to the prestigious Academy for Creation and Transformative science. With a reputation for putting out the continents brightest minds, Tomespire has become quite the bustling collegetown. While the town itself seems rather plain, the Spire of the university can be seen glistening from miles around. The spire, seemingly supported by magic is said to be a be a beacon for progress, and brings a neverending line of inquisitive minds to solve the magical means that work it.

## Missions

* Bo, Jeff, Margie, and hired assistance Gerard were tasked with transporting Qorn to the Academy for Creation and Transformative Science to see Dean Tinkept in order to assist with a graduate project. On the way to Bol, Bo told a story, Margie tied herself up in rope by accident, but also landed a choice shot at a strange object that turned out to be just a pufferfish. The cork in the bottom of the Southern Wind 6 suddenly broke, nearly causing the ship to sink but still allowing the party to reach Rearton. When in Rearton, the guards pulled the group aside and Captain Skraw cast zone of truth and asked them some questions about why they (the general "they" in this sense, meaning just any members of Shipton that had been to Bol in the past few weeks) were asking so many questions, along with why they were interested in Trilmer and the disappearance of the rogues. He asked if they were affiliated with the rogues or the artificers, but as neither Margie, Jeff, nor Bo had ever met Trilmer and had no real ties to any rogues (besides long lost teammate Jessie), it wasn't a very successful interrogation. The party was warned that they would be watched, and Skraw even implied that he would treat any Shipton contractors as responsible for what anyone related to Shipton had done as an intimidation tactic. The party then got some baked goods and got on the wormway straight to Tome Spire, home of the Academy for Creation and Transformative Science. They stopped at a fuzz hut and some purchased stuff. They found Gel, another brother of Pote, who offered Jeff a good book and gave them directions to the Dean. The Dean told them that a portal to the Mirror Plane had been opened in the graduate labs, and Qorn had been hired to seal it. He warned them that the mirror creatures would take their forms and attempt to kill them in order to replace them, which is why they had created some security measures to ensure people couldn't get in (sort of). Jeff took an entry exam to the Academy in private, but failed to get in, stating that the Dean had become strange when Jeff selected an arrowhead instead of a different object, and that things just got a little weird. On their way into the labs, the group met a TA and Bo gave some well intentioned but poorly executed advice. Forced to split up by the school's confusing security measures, Jeff, Bo, and Margie entered in one door while Gerard and Qorn entered in the other. In a close battle against identical copies of themselves, the group finally won the day and Qorn sealed the way to the Mirror Plane. Gel gave Jeff a crappier version of the book he'd found him (as Jeff was not a student of the Academy), and the TA ganked Bo's steez by dressing up as a frog. Bo revealed he had moved on from Foolix and was in a better place by working on himself. The group made it back to Rearton to find the R guy, who had previously asked for a shard of a mirror in a roundabout riddle kind of way. He gave Jeff a pouch full of powder (presumably magic) and the group returned to the ship, to find it repaired but a lot grosser. The group returned to Shipton and ended the mission successfully.
