Meet, brief, Feralie, Assirrya, Reich
We met at the guild and we buy a few (12) wicca counter-spells so that we may use some of our skin-changes etc. Acquire Myrrh and Restoratives, make Astrology readings, water potions.
Meet with Lord Serafin, the Lord of Patterns - at his home (in Caulder), he explains that he's acting on behalf of an old friend who needs some adventurers to undertake a mission of great importance on Reich. The old friend is Entity Prime, the Lord of the Machine. He would like us to raid the facility studying the Northern Lights. We may want to take the opportunity to raid the nearby Seed Repository but we should be quick as the Nazi's are likely to react quickly and violently once we are discovered. And we might want to keep an eye out for the Casket of Winter, Serafin would like to divine it, from a distance, before we take it away again, far away.
We travel to the pattern near Novadom (and Blackshore), walk the pattern (costing Rahne some blood and revealing its uses) to Feralie. On Feralie we climb the mountains and follow the ridge line on a Mithril path made by Elves of the 1st age, upon which we walk for 3 days to a castle on top of a mountain. In the castle we find a number of races including Giants, Dwarves, Hobbits and more. We meet the Fire Giant Klang (reknowned as a smith) and his associate Grant the Stone Giant (a gay sculptor) who takes a shine to Tsayoi. We also meet the King under the mountain. The king shows us a lake he has made which is full of cranes and through magic it gives the cranes additional stamina for a while to fly on their travels (+1 EN per day spent walking the lake for the season).
After 2 days we depart again and traverse the pass through the Nightfall Gate (narrow path, airless void on either side) to Assirrya and the rocket launch sites that will take us to Entity Prime. We try to get some clothing for use in a vacuum that Rahne has used before but our contacts are insufficient to get the good stuff. Tsayoi orders some armour upgrades. Prue does learn of Murder Row - a lane that leads to a nexus to the Atomic Café on Malkuth - and is a good place to find murders and the Lord of the Turning Wheel. And Thieves Lane the network of wires running just under the dome where goods may be fenced and pockets emptied.
We take the rocket to the satellite orbiting Assirrya which is home to Entity Prime.
We meet with Entity Prime and have discussion about the mission. He has concerns that the Transuraniuns are using the Aurora to influence Uranus, harvesting the power of the Aurora to bring Transurania into alignment with Reich's Uranus. We may take the power and/or destroy it, he does not mind so long as it is denied to them.
We negotiate for 600TSG or services as payment. He supplies us with a Storage Battery, Bronze Pliers of Opening, Rocket Ammunition for a Browning ACP, and invests his solution to the 3-body problem.
We return to the astral and travel for 2 weeks to Bucharest to the house of the Lord of Tinkers where we find the Widow Click (a very old Eldoran elf) and Anushka (a fairy creature) who is a very alluring and attractive female.
We get briefed on local conditions and are supplied with some Pentecost potions, Blank Phylacteries, Plover Stones and a number of Grenadoes in the shape of Fabergé eggs. We also pick up some Toxic Cigarettes x 20.
We discuss how to leave Reich after the raid as we are informed we will not be welcome back through the Tinker's House with the Reich on our heels.
- Dangers: Cold Balrog in the North; the Maia, Thuringwethil - Lady of Secret Shadow, Vampire messenger of Sauron; Lorelei, the Rhine Maiden;
- Planar Exits: Concealed house at Weisbaden; Medusa's lair, under lake at Berchtesgarden; Footstool?
The Widow Click observes that Alandis is under the eye of Lórien, Master of Dreams and Visions. Alandis later sleeps and converses with him in dream.
