Setup
The party find Harald and Helena in intercourse.
Activities
Bringing Shame To The Family
Harald will tell the party to leave. If they don’t, turn to his employees and ask them to take care of this. He is not an evil man, but obviously realises this is a bad situation. He’ll ask the party to wait outside. Once ready, he will invite the players back in (Helena is gone) and ask them what agreement they can come up with.
He tried to bribe the party, without success. They also stopped Helena from running away.
The white crow is long gone, leaving only a feather behind.
Callicles
An adult white dragon named Callicles comes to Arcastle and kidnaps Harald, as retaliation for the players killing one of its children (male).
It takes it to a mountain, it’s easy to find (it’s snowing on the mountain top). It takes 2 days to the village of Hillfrost, and another 2 days of trekking to its lair. The players need good equipment and good survival rolls. DC 16 con saves or exhausted when sleeping during the night.
A Frost Giant is protecting the way to the dragon’s Lair. In exchange for Harald and their lives, the dragon asks the players to get the Flaming Scimitar in the Labyrinth of Death. The party gets blown out of the cave, landing 1 km away after flying through the air. Lex, Auron and Cirilia take gold and items flown with them.
The scimitar is on a skeleton inside a coffin. They can’t detect any magic, and as soon as they try and take it, whoever touched it is blasted back 30 feet (15 on a successful save) and take 3d8 necrotic damage.
In the labyrinth, they fight kill the skeleton holding the scimitar and find the exit. Hilde asks Dion what to do, and Dion answers “Don’t take the scimitar, leave it where it is”.
King and Queen
If with info about Harald: Wedding called off. Have to see what to do with him, what’s with Helena, who Matheo’s children are from, what about the alliance with Whitehaven. Matheos will want war.
Dion and the King knew about Harald’s doings since the birth of Helena’s latest child, since all of her children have blond hair. He says that now of course they can’t keep it anymore, and that the wedding is cancelled, and that the king won’t bother Hilde with weddings anymore.
Graduation: What did they find at the attacked village? Could they save anyone? Is someone controlling the orcs now?
Anyway, Auron is now a knight of Arden and is assigned by royal decree to protect the princess.
Hildegard is known a cleric of Arden, and is free to stay and work in the temple, or travel freely in the Kingdom to tend to its people.
Lex: The king is sad to see him resign from teacher, saying that he has trained the kingdom’s best clerics, and best clerics on Thaelia. He says “If you ever need anything, you know where to find me, old friend”.
Cirillia, Doran and Dork: Thanks for all your help. We could use people like you working for Arden. If you are ever looking for a new life, you are welcomed in our Kingdom. There is always something interesting to do here.
