16 Blessing Moon, 1372
- Party does some shopping and upgrading of various equipment
- Struuquin explains that he needs to lay low for a while, but his friend Sir Osmul will certainly offer them hospitality the rest of their stay in Sigil and may even wish to accompany them
- Party relocates to Osmul's place
- Michael goes a'tithing; Ellowyn notices while accompanying that one of the new acolytes is Annette Silk
- Over dinner, Evathyth explains their path
- Arborea for a few hours + time for Querca to do her thing
- Plane of Negative Energy for as short as possible- will need to Attune Form while on or die
- Plane of Shadow for a few hours underground- will be dangerous, many undead
- Material Plane underground in mountain range near the Wilds
- It is a dangerous path but it is the quickest; the first portal opens tomorrow afternoon (17 Blessing Moon), so all should rest well in prep
- Overnight, Ellowyn gets a call on the bronze orb from Pah'zel
- She is calling from the white orb, implies she has the blue
- Wants to trade for the red orb, or for its location
- She is very neutral and will deal with whoever; but will wait until mid-day next day out of courtesy
- Decide to discuss with Church of Tamara/Bahamut next morning
- They hem and haw and decide to continue discussions with her; some angle may be able to be reached
- Agree that she will be somewhere on Material Plane mid-day for at least half an hour if they wish to contact her
- Party heads off to Arborea
- Sunshine wants to pee on everything
- Querca seeks out a nymph who directs her to a nice clearing for her oak seed
- It is pretty and nice! Seedling shoots up, Querca grows big acorns (Greater Goodberry x10)
- Continuing on through roots of redwood
- Plane of Negative Energy- a howling void
- Fly as fast as possible to a Gate, avoiding the nullstone
- Barely outrun the wraiths chasing
- Plane of Shadow- emerge on a strange terraced hillside with a few ghosts drifting about
- Head up the slope and down a tunnel, travel many hours
- In a large open chamber, encounter a huge Nightwalker, 3x Nightwings, and a cadre of Shadows
- Vin is paralyzed with fear and nearly swallowed by shadows, defenseless
- Ezel uses a Wall of Fire to great effect
- Sil uses her Gold Dragon Breath, WHOOOOOOSH!
- Vin is saved in the nick of time, good thing he had that STR item from Michael or he would be a shadow
- Quick heal, restoration, and moving on
- Material Plane- pushing through a thin place in the Shadows to an underground area
- Querca casts Find the Path to lead the party out
- In a large cavern, barely escape a weird purplish worm thingie with many icky tentacles- run away!
- Emerge onto the surface; it's night-time (18 Blessing Moon, a day was lost on one of the planes due to time passing funny) but it's finally the MATERIAL PLANE! Wonderful.
- To bed! Will scout/etc in the morning.
