khashana wants to see ivy. worried about her. i will mind link with jeth through the window to tell him where we are going
ivy is sitting at the grave. detect magic. ivy gets a very faint ping of magic from the casket. can't tell the school. it's confusing.
ivy sends a message to khashana. come over.
I say don't touch the stuff.
khashana sends safira to wait for jeth and bring him over.
dorbin gives smig and khashana a strange cocktail spell of flaming sphere.
khashana is not interested. give it to smig.
dorbing teases khashana and takes the potion back. back to smig. everyone should have one.
jeth sees an antiquarian bookshop. stuck gazing.
bookstore owner: lyn, the historian!! it's closed right now.
one tile: wild apples and a history book in the window.
jeth will come back when it's open. coming the graveyard. dropped the gross food.
we approach and see ivy and the golem by the pit.
fingernials on a chalkboard, the compainons arrive.
ivy explains the digging.
the script.
khashana explains about what the dog said. ivy picks up the dirt and sniffs it. smells normal. in her experience. nothing seems weird.
dorbin will inspect the tomb. try to read the wriing.
ivy asks about Unknown language. dorbin and khashana try to read. no luck.
smig reads it. here lies daughter... names carved out.
ivy asks jeth if Unknown is related to elvish?
ivy sees the flourish and makes her think of elvish.
khashana recognizes elvish style but isn't. looks like draconic but i can' read it though..
jeth says Unknown is a combo of draconic and elvish.
ivy puts this at 400 years. smig thinks it s a lineage. the name seem to be chiseled but it's actually some weird block. he can't physically read. a family history. keeper of the _____, daughter of _____,
last part is dirty. smig brushes the dirt away. ivy warns him to be careful. nope....
Unknown. watered down descendant of the ancient cities.
khashana says that we didn't check the bone. only the dirt. the dog might still be right.
god eater! smig wonders.
smig is grinding the stone a bit.
uses fingernail to scrape off some dirt
the location of the script of arabae
last princess of Unknown
continues scraping.
keeper of the dragon.... something.. (Khashana. Draconic??? dragon horn!!!) or knowledge.
smig puts dirt over the words again.
khashahan pops into smigs head. what are we gonna do with it. smig looks at khashana nervously and runs into the woods.
khashana says we shold open it.
connection to the Unknown. and he is trying not to step in their way.
khashana offers to hide the horn. has a safe space.
my lady is the best choice.
it is dragon history. belongs with the dragons.
jeth, ivy think about the horn. magical artifact in the war between dragons. when blown would send out a call to all dragonkinnds signaling that heir aid was needed.
dorbin that was something Unknown gave to them.
def not for the zentirm.
smig is racing. running. getting away. yelling for Unknown
vision goes white. running in an empty space. SPACE HORSE????
speaks slowly. space man, you are lost. what are you seeking?
smigs slows down and the whiteness dissapears and stars all direcations.
thsnk you space horse. i've been trying to be good. it's hard for him. trying not to step in it. might have just done that.
might have found the drac horn or way to lead there. scared that the people want it. Unknown wants it. i don't trust the dragon people. the big man probably doesn't want them to have it. i don't know what to do. I can't ake this choice.
space man, you are doing the best to can. yoi've become a weasel. home to other weasel. jsut like the stars are home to space horse. and then to space man. whenn your weasel needs help and is lost. what do you give it?
warmth, scratch, it will be okya.
look to the stars sppace man. what do they give you.
follow your instints space man. you hae the power to choose who to give it to or destroy it all together but that will take some strenght.
if i look at the stars, will i find the right answer?
there are many right answers.
call to me when you've found the horn and i'll tell you then.
do not give it to anyone until we have talked more.
jeth looks at khashana. it's important to reunite heirlooms and cultural things whenever possible. the people that are doing the returning can only hope that what is done with it
jeth asks khashana if they can be trusted.
Khashana fully trusts them. they can protect it. they are her family.
jeth puts pressure on khashana to facilitate a proper trade with the dragons.
we need to open the casket and see.
jeth asks ivy about carefully repectfully opening caskets
need to do this carefully.
ivy researchs. sets up.
hide fro villagers. akes a sanctum.
takes 10 minutes. foggy ivy preps. khashana contacts Vas.
Sorry for drunkness. thanks for your care. In Unknown .buried Unknown casket here mentions dragon horn keeper.
Concerns black dragon cultists are inhibiting the flow of magic items. white tree rumors. 25 I SAID IT
Unknown responds. i heard you were drunk. Unknown told me. so funny. unearth the casket. keep us in the loop.
iilya does not normally pay as much attention to me as Vas. Khashan is giddy.
jeth tries to lift the casket lid very carefully.
vaccumn. deep breath. no smell of death or decay. oddly.
kashana looks. a young elf maiden. golden hair. looks completely alive but is for sure dead.
crowned tiara, beautiful clothes. hands crossed. a fine piece of black silk cloth folded on her chest.
ivy gets in carefully. thanks the woman for letting s invade.
jeth is inspecting. khashana is glued to jeth this whole time.
jeth also doesn't want to distrub the dead. uses gerard's eyes to see the cloth.
looks like a hancercheif.
she is well perserved.
this is something.
khshana wants to greater resto it.
ivy will tak the hacercheif.
as she pulls it ot, it billows and unfurls. it's expansive. 6 ft in diameter.
shimmer slik like cloth. circle. it definitely seems magical.
ivy ries to look through the fabric.
hold it up to light.
it blocks out all light.
khashana tries to cast greater resto on the lady.
ivy is upset. khashana is determined.
