Session 1

Day 1 - The Adventure Begins

We sit in the guild meeting room waiting for our contractors to arrive, and we introduce ourselves. After a few minutes, 3 halflings enter and greet us. They want us to go and investigate why their Shamans' assistant is not sleeping. After some back and forth we learn that it could potentially be a curse, and they've tried many ways to wake the assistant with no success.

Katya asks them about our pay, we'll be receiving 20k silver pennies, 24 healing potions, some magical feathers (1 each) and an undisclosed trinket when we reach the shaman. We agree to the terms and set off to pick up gear before leaving.

As we grab supplies, the halflings mention that we'll be arriving by way of a tree in slippery rock. Elidon notices a flame in one of the halfling's eyes, they could be a fire magic-user.

After spending an afternoon grabbing all of our adventuring gear, we rest for the night and prepare to depart in the morning to Slippery Rock with Argus stating he's been through there before and that he'll lead the way.

Day 2 - Traveling to and through the tree donut

We begin heading to slippery rock, Argus leading the way. The halflings follow us as we travel, and we have some nice chats in-between. A few minutes after starting, the halflings form a circle holding hands. They wave to our group for us to join them, but don't give a reason directly. We place our hands on theirs after asking if it's okay to do so, (it is).

They chant for a minute and raise their hands, casting a spell of some kind, our feet begin smoking and they ask us to run with them. Elidon mentions this could be related to the fire in one of the halfling's eyes he noticed the day before.

We take off running pretty fast, faster than the average horse, not feeling tired or burdened by our gear. We get a bit side-tracked by Argus who’s been to Slippery Rock before but leads us in the wrong direction. Until Katya corrects him, we lose an hour of travel to the mistake.

As we arrive at Slippery Rock, the haven of witches, we start exploring and find some amulets for sale that could help us along the way. Phos picks up a Hypericum amulet, Elidon picks up a Luck amulet.

Arriving early in the morning (9 am) at the slippery rock marketplace, Phos wants a catvision invested item and picks one up from a merchant. Some food is had and during, Argus calls Phos weak, typical dwarf behaviour.

The Halflings are chilling under a Willow Tree while we go and do our shopping, waiting patiently for us to return. We finish and meet back with them, the halflings want us to climb the tree and jump out of it. Reluctantly we climb it and wait for the next instruction.

They start tying a rope around each other, and we start tying it each other together, Phos sticks his golem to himself using magic adhesion, the Halflings start chanting and we all jump out of the tree, about 20ft to the ground, plummeting towards the floor.

Our vision goes black as we get surrounded by black whirling clouds flying past us as we fall, it looks like we’ve travelled to another plane but are falling slowly. Elidon loses consciousness from the thinner air as we fall from the sky, tied to the halflings and Katya. Phos DE’s the feather as we fall and discovers it is the cause for us falling so slowly.

Halflings start swimming in the air to avoid landing on a grumpy persons' fortress, the only place we can see for miles. We're about 20,000ft in the air, at our current fall speed this should take ~5.5 hours to reach the ground thanks to the powerful slow fall feathers. THe halflings seem fine with the wait, as do the rest of the party. Phos starts growing a bit impatient and after discussing where we need to go with the halflings and why they're trying to avoid the grumpy person's place, we learn it's the domain of a powerful necromancer who we don't want to annoy.

“where should we land” - “not by the tower”

There's some stuff going on to the east (clarify with Ian), To the north is a fog-filled gorge, both several miles away. Below us is forested highlands, with a lake 40-50 miles away. We’ve gotta go north then east after landing, going into the middle of the gorge.

Phos starts using flying magic on his carpet to turn our 5-hour fall into a 1 minute trip to the ground at his full speed, Katya and Elidon both start looking for a landing space as we fall slowly and Phos gets ready to take us one by one.

Both Katya and Elidon zone out a bit while looking due to the thinner air (bad Navigator rolls) and it takes a few mins to find a suitable place to land, Phos makes some comments about the navigators after the first suggestion wasn’t good enough, Elidon and Katya rolled their eyes after finding a clearing a few hundred feet past where we initially aimed for.

Phos takes Katya near the ground first and she detects undead as a precaution after hearing about the powerful necromancer, detecting a number of undead, and a zombie near the landing site. Katya shoots a zombie wounding it pretty heavily, Phos brings Elidon down next and tries to place him in a tree. Failing this, Elidon takes a leap to the group after Phos failed to place securely flying too fast, (Elidon will remember this).

Elidon takes a shot at the zombie Katya is fighting another decent hit, but the Zombie is still standing. A few more arrows and it's down, we try to sneak our way around the clearing taking out all the undead we can see as Phos continues to cart the remainder of the group to the ground. The two archers kill a few more zombies as Phos finished bringing everyone to the ground taking about 20 mins.

Katya becomes aware more zombies are coming faster than we can kill them from the forest around us, we have a quick chat about if we should fight or run, we choose to fight.
