27th Dec 2020 19:15 - 22:30 In-game timeline: DR1489 Elesias 15 - Eleasias 16 Our "Heroes" stand, imposing and brave, before a closed sarcophagus with dragon iconography and an old, dusty suit of armour on a stand. They spend their usual amount of time working out what to do next. Mahtis is concerned about being attacked from behind, and so leaps back over the pit to stand guard in the previous room, with the elven marble statues. Kandi decides to join her, but doesn't want to risk leaping over the pit, so slowly and carefully makes his way down and across the base of the pit. The group decides they want to read the inscription above the archway, but the dust and dirt is getting in the way. In the absence of any normal means of getting rid of the dirt, Mahtis decides to hurl balls of fire at it to try to clear the inscription enough to read it. I'd hate to be present in Mahtis' home on spring-cleaning day! It works… somehow. Eventually, after much noise, smoke, du

21st Dec 2020 19:15 - 22:00 In-game timeline: DR1489 Elesias 13 - Eleasias 15 We rejoin our "Heroes" in the Ol' Boar Inn in Oakhurst, all nursing a pint of Goblin Brew Ale, nervously deciding who should reveal more of their personal history first. In the end Thomas was the first to crack under pressure, and spent some time outlining his history, both ancient and recent. Luckily, he spent far less time than Stephen R. Donaldson in relating a plagiarised story, and so we all breathed a huge sigh of relief when the baton was passed, first to Kandi, and then to Carro and Mahtis. Feeling that they now knew each other far better, though probably liked each other only the same amount, they went to bed, after agreeing to give Belak's wand to Thomas, as he was so keen to have it, with no immediate, obvious ill effects. The following morning Carro went to visit his brother, Erdan, who was now conscious and able to talk. Carro joined the rest of the group for breakfast and passe

13th Dec 2020 19:15 - 22:30 In-game timeline: DR1489 Elesias 11 - Elesias 13 One of our "Heroes" has just collapsed in a blinding light. The others are a little worried. Only a little. When TC comes round he explained that he received visions of the past, or future, or present. He is not sure. He cryptically promises to enlighten the rest of them more at a later date. In the meantime, the party decide to interrogate Belak and TC brings him round with his healing ability. Tied and initially gagged, Belak appears to be no threat, and, despite being a little cocky, he does accede to his captors and answers their questions regarding the fruit, the tree, someone named Togruk and whether Bella was still alive and how to save her. Belak suggested that putting the wand into the nook in the base of the tree would be the best way to get the tree to release the halfling girl. The party were not, at least for now, necessarily convinced. Carro took the ripe, red pear from the tree and sto
