Short summary:
During the First Landing's First Annual Lunar New Year Tournament, Kakkariel hung out with Lord Attys, who offered to become his Muse and granted him a boon, inviting him to visit Eleutheria. Kakkariel assembled a party to accompany him there, and they were brought by Marsyas across the Lake on the Unexplored Continent to the quaint little hamlet in the shadow of Visage. There they encountered a cast of colourful characters, an almost-murder mystery, and got involved in some Fey political intrigue.
Full report
The party led by Kakkariel made its way through the portal, from the Elemental Shrine to the Temple of the Two Suns, then it was ferried across the lake waters by Marsyas. This way, they arrived to Visage. Upon disembarking, they were instructed by the curious Space Insect that all must wear masks while in Visage. The party split ways from here.
Kakkariel went to the theater, securing his place in the play, before talking to Lord Attys; he learned that there was an attempted assassination of an emissary, Akanth Briarborn. The Fey Lord asked the party to investigate, and reveal who the culprit was.
During the investigation, Ishka'tar and Seneca looked around the crime scene, and discovered a good amount of evidence and clues. Dr. Boom Boom snooped around Claudin's room. It took the party a while to put the pieces together. It really clicked once Ishka talked to Lady Flavianne and learned that her shawl was forcefully taken by some unknown person.
Once all the pieces were together, the party modified and prepared for the play titled 'The Visage: Of Love's Betrayal', and preformed it with excellent style, revealing who the criminal was. After that, Claudin was taken into custody, and banished from the Fey lands; he traveled to Watchers' Island with the party as a part of this exile.
