Act I

• Party travels to Noble, stays at inn, meet Sues Ocho, who directs them to Ohreinn Sanchez, uncle of Isoceles and former necromancer.
• Party needs to get a keystone from Ocho, converse with him at the bar, resolve to try and bargain/trade the keystone and steal if bargaining doesn't work.
  • Highwind receives a small soulstone, party gets monkey stone and gem of calm heart.
• Party sneaks into the mansion at night (tries to) and steals the keystone.
• They also kidnap Sanchez and bring him with him back to Ravenhurst.

• (clarification needed) what else was stolen from the manor?

• Note: Stark leaves the part between Noble and Ravenhurst, leaving behind this note.

Act II

• The party returns to Ravenhurst and to the inn; there are dragonblooded guards there to ambush them but with the help of stranger/newcomer Ino Keia, kill them off. Captain Grau manages to escape once again.
• They travel through the forest to find a way into the underworld (with a stone that masks their life-force).
• There's a run in with a faerie. Mugen gets large, but otherwise everything works out fine.
• There's a slight run in with a group of ghosts but the group talks their way out of it.
• They find a ferryman named Pete/Tim, and ask for passage to Sijan.
  • On the way, they stop to help a village being attacked by ghouls. Halar sleeps through it.

  • (clarification needed) What did everyone end up taking, if anything?:

    • Ino Keia: Mask (Artifact ••) "alter appearance to look like anyone and to completely control the emotions that her face shows"
• Nothing much exciting happens, party finds what is probably a keystone?
• Return home.
  • Find out Pete/Tim is a Deathlord.
