HEAL PAWS. that was terrible.
harvey loots the body. many jewlery
Harvey snaps the tip of his dagger getting the circlet off but he does succeed. takes 1/2 of an hour.
Look for info on Merkul and Shadowfell.
Kas is sad we didn't get to talk to the person.
I almost got to help and spread my wings.
It's a shame we weren't able to talk peacefully.
I don't think Kas is much of a research kind of gal, but I do think she would have an interest in learning more about the Shadowfell and The Raven Queen for Valon's sake and possibly even Merkul because of her own death and his connection to Pel.
Osveldt helps (Osveldt)
These books are ridiculously dry and tedious. family linages. accounts of war. spines are not descriptive titles. mostly describes locations for which they deal with. Accounts of history.
Places:
Mostly genealogies and big overviews.
some sections are much narrower than the rest of the technical documentation. A little collection that deals with other planes of existence:
As Within and so Without:
Our Plane, those Beyond, and the Peoples Therein
Around the Gem-studded Firmament
time to take those and read them on the go.
Chunk of section of herald information. labelled section of shelves.
The Heralds: Keepers of Faerun’s Legacy
The Roster
Kas takes them all. no, I don't need a book cart
vic and searos want to check out the higher tower portion.
Harvey thinks the shiny is just shiny but it's a lot of money 2k worth.
Searos sees magic from the higher level of the tower.
paws healing. Searos helps. my heal sucked.
Paws notices a couple more titles as she looks over my shoulder.
texts on regions closer to home.
Fragments of the Fallen (netheryes empire)
A Chronicle of Subterranean Threats (overlap with above)
Organizations of Influence within the Realms, T-Z
Paws notices that THE ROSTER has a list of member of the order and where they were assigned and the activities were they were assigned. Including a list of the high heralds (aka the leaders of the organization)
This was the HQ of the order.
Paws goes back down to look for knickknacks. the stairwell seems lighter. not so oppessive and clausterphobic. It's cold now.
everything in the building is ready for life. everything that might have been out are all put away and clean.
abandoned 100-200 years ago. remarkable condition. very well perserved.
Vic gives the skeleton a cigar. reckon we should finish things. He smushes the skelton's head. can't be ressuracted.
the head lands behind me as i'm flipping through pages.
one more floor.
the stairs spiral up and doesn't continue past the next floor.
smaller room
workroom of sorts. special collectiosn.
large writing table and research notes. shelves with scrolls. series of pegs on the wall. 1 holds a cloak and a pair of boots.
dedicated work station with cylindar and stuff. ladder in the far wall to a hatch. 10 foot diameter formerly inscribed circle in the floor. teleportation circles like the ones from the floor of the cobbler shop.
harvey takes the boots and cloak.
Vic tells me to get paws and searos. Kas cuddles searos. it's cold here!
vic points out to the circle.
vic wants to sleep. Searos made a fire. it's cozy. perfect.
I pass research notes as i check the hatch. I wanna see it before we sleep.
i look out to the morning night sky. observational space.
it's 3am.
on the edge of the battlements. humanoid remains.
I tell the group that whatever lived up here didn't make it out.
Vic askes if they starved. I go and check
some bodies very old. some are recent ish. they've been here for a while. Discarded perhaps?
Animals have been preying on it. Not complete skeletons. humanoid. scraps of armor. no identifying features but among them I find two satchels that are leather. most intact things up here. they are holding together teh most complete of the two bodies.
I yell that I don't think anyone will be coming back to life.
the satchels seem empty. perfect beer bottle size. I tell the person im sorry for their passing and I thank them for the bags.
two messanger bags.
Vic askes if they were red. too much scrap. couldn't tell.
vic wants to make food. kas will help. offers to have 1st shift.
vic pulls out bread and cheese.
searos helps!! searos is a toaster.
Valon's food was special to you. Wanted to share my own food's too. delicous. Thank you osveldt.
Harvey goes to get the mules. Kas follows to watch him safely.
Kas has both bags on for some reason.
Harvey brings in the mules into the main room.
the mules are a bit uncomfortable.
Kas asks in Auran. You okay?
harvey says he is rich and that he has boots for Valon whenever he is back. Kas laughes HARD. Pets krik. her fav.
paws finds some tools and hand tools. Two cylinders 1 foot tall, 3 inch wide. some sort of set. deck of cards. assortment of vials. a metal cube (6 in to a side), made from panels.
paws opens the case. 3 sets finely polished stone with faces, mouth open (deeper) and ears deeper. SENDING STONES. Paws gets really excited. normally only sets of two. size of a bean. sit your ear. well a human ear maybe. Kas will offer her ear. Vic has the other. Paws has the third.
I'll put it in my ear. Paws tries to talk to the stone. Hello, hows the weather
It transmits into both Vic and Kas after a delay. sending spell. 25 words only.
the rubics cube seems to have similar glyphs to the teleportation circle in this room.
A key to the circle. https://www.dndbeyond.com/magic-items/5559830-cube-of-teleportation Can code any given teleportation circle to a cube side. only 1 in use for now.
osveldt worries about libraries and cranky librarians.
Paws is going to take all the tools. Kas tells paws to sleep first. and pets her until she agrees. we can take all the tools in the morning.
Kas is going to stay up and watch a bit. pet paws. organize.
Vic will paint a bit. the party sleeping by the fire. amazing. 6by 8. focus on searos and paws by the fire.
Searos randomly gets up and says he is glad we are all still alive. Vic agrees. Searos goes to a window.
look through the bags. sorts her stuff into them. needs to put all the books in. checks the bags to not crunch anything. the bags just keep going and going. So excited. Stuck her head in a bunch!!
Folds the second bag to give to paws.
Put the tools in.
https://www.dndbeyond.com/magic-items/4581-bag-of-holding
keeps teh first bag on her very happy. picks up Our Plane, those Beyond, and the Peoples Therein.
therotical outline of the planes and
descirbes the 4 elemental planes
the inhabitants there and what they may get up to and how they may be reached or contacted. note on the appendix page. Question of whether or not this was relevant subject matter for the heralds to keep in the library. each section is divided into 4 sections for each plane that it's discussing. hard to tell what fully true. lots of theortical. Not my thing. territory of correspondances. water is aligned with sapphire on the material realms. fire is fire opals in the material realm. borderline woo woo. Paws has a fire opal.********
Kas checks on Osveldt';s painting is coming. almost done. brush one hand. cigar the other. Kas felt the book was a lot.
sureal pattern of brushstrokes of yellow, red, orange for searos. the painting . searos was moving a bit.
Vic mentions the gems that harvey got and maybe their connection. interesting point.
Packs paws tools into the second bag of holding for paws. will tell her in the morning. for all the knickknacks.
mirror. look at the light. Hey valon. I hope you are okay. Good night.
still figuring out this mirror. Does it lead anywhere. What do i say?
we all sleep. and wake up. heavy frost on the ground!!
Kas gets so excited to give the bag to paws. PUT YOUR HAND IN IT! Think of your thingies!
we match.
Paws dumps all the cutlery into the bag.
goes through her new tools. set of cylinders. uses them as a holder. puts something on one cylinder and it appears in another.

Kas and paws are so damn excited
paws fills hers with water, it fills Kas'
paws mentions her parent, a spirit of some sort. the painting reminds her of them. Gotta give the book to Paws. Vic talks about the points of light that he has been drawn to. hard for me to capture. had a humanoid shape of sorts and corporal. a being of fire. mentions her opal again. They are not dead.
Vic tries to bring harvey upstairs by bribing him with crackers. Harvey just pops our behind him. He likes crackers better. dry stuff.
Harvey sees that paws and kas did not die from the magic items we found and will put on the cloak he found. fastens it. as he moves around, he notices the hem leaves a very faint train of smoke before it dissapates. wipes the crumbs off. swishs one way, then another, then jumps to see the smoke. when he jumps, he thinks he will jump up and suddenly he is on top of the battlements.
https://www.dndbeyond.com/magic-items/4599-cape-of-the-mountebank
we are all confused on mising harvey. He is upstairs. He did it again!!! vanished!!
such a clear day. little bumps of landmasses. moonshae isles and daggerford below.
Wonders about the boots for a second but decides to save them for Valon.
Harvey finds the trapdoor but it is locked from the inside. Help says harvey.
I open the door.
Good cloak, good view.
