The session starts as Zora gets teleported into the middle of the battle between the Agate Seekers and the infected, lycanthropic bandits. While initially just confusingly looking around on the battlefield, she did eventually join the fray with Maya. The fight continues. Zora and Philomena Snapdragon do get bitten and actually infected with Malar's Fever and Lycanthropy. Dareth Lion'el Griffmane however goes slightly berserk, only being reigned in with a scolding from Mikhail. The fight eventually ends, with the Werewolf Pack Lord dead and every other bandit dead or unconscious.
Samuel O'Lenaghan proceeds to cure everyone infected with Malar's Fever, which was already taking an early hold on Dareth, and then produces two scrolls of Remove Curse, which Sooty and Mikhail use on Philomena and Zora. Dareth will need to get his lycanthropy cured sometime else within the next month. Over the next 3 daysthe party returns to Dulenn, where Samuel delivers the bandits to the military. And after that, he pays the party for their work. He is quite satisfied with their work and may ask for them again, and then said goodbye to the party to deal with matters regarding his noble house.
On the way back to the Adventurer's Guildhouse, to return back to Argentis, Zora informed the party of where she had been and what was happening. She returned to The Principality of Argond too meet with her adoptive parents. While she was able to meet and have a conversation with Sigrun Daum, her adoptive mother, her adoptive father Kort Daum had not returned home to Ronda in a while. After doing some research in Magrasta, it seems like Kort had been abducted by Raul Ammon, also known as Filch, a criminal in charge of large parts of Magrasta's underground, who she had (rather begrudgingly) worked for for a while. It seems like he's making him fight in a fight pit against monsters.
Before talking about the problem some more, however, a woman wearing a nun's habit crashes into Dareth as he turns the corner. She was carrying some buckets of water, which promptly clattered and splashed to the ground. After the two gained their bearings again, something became quite apparent to Dareth... He just crashed into his half-sister, Clara Griffmane.
After a heartfelt reunion, Dareth informed Clara about what he learned so far... The Bloodletters, Clan Steelhand, how their situation is likely the result of some centuries-old revenge plan, and how their brother, Clayton Griffmane, is still alive, but drinking away his days in a tavern somewhere. Clara meanwhile informed Dareth about how Father Arthur, the local priest of Tyr in Skyhold, smuggled her out of the city. She's been living in multiple different convents of Tyr on the continent of Liwilai for a while, since then, and has been living in Dulenn for the last 6 months. Also, she heard that Castle Skyhold was currently being rebuilt and taken care of by Viscount Keegan MacLean of Emberfort, an old friend of their father, Blain Griffmane. She also informed Dareth that, in order to find out more info on the Emerald of the Crossroads on a hidden mountain-road between the towns of Ridgestown and Greencaw.
Volk Lesnoy meanwhile offered to include Clara under his protection. After a bit of an in-party argument and squabble, he did eventually do so, and now also is able to sense Clara. And with that, the party returned to Argentis using the teleport circle in the Adventurer's Guildhouse...
...Though not for long, as they immediately travel to Magrasta, the capital of The Principality of Argond. Before leaving, Zora talked about the location where Kort was held, but also how the Elite Guard of Countess Evelyn Nightfall might be able to, and is willing to, help. The current plan: First, seek out a temple to cure Dareth of his lycanthropy. Then, meet the Countess and her guards.
SESSION END.
