Session 20
October 30, 2016
We went off to meet the vampire after resting overnight, healing, and memorizing new spells.
As we approached, Zho Ni turned the 6 skeletons, and then the tomb doors opened and then a large group of skeletons, followed by the undead Ogre and group of zombies. Zho Ni turned about half the skeletons, and then the vampire, Voragin, cast sleep and dropped some of us.
Urman quickly acted to wake them, and Voragin shouted stop, and the skeletons, zombies, ogre, and the bone golem behind us stopped.
Voragin tried to get us to do something, but we decided that leaving to get word of this place back to The Vale would be better than us dying and becoming unwilling undead pawns of this beast. So we used the hoop to return to the academy.
We relayed our findings about this city of undead.
We had items we found identified, then we agreed to head to Manheim in the morning.
We road to Mannheim, and after a long all day journey, we entered the gates, and went to the Thane’s castle, and repeated what we learned. All the thane can do to help is pay for our training, and direct us in ways that will help The Vale deal with its myriad enemies.
Otiben met with the spymaster and agreed to deliver some sort of message to Port Finnesheim.
Other business leads us there, such as a message that appears to be written in Elvish, we found in the tomb, learning more about the removal of the heart of the elf’s wife. Also perhaps to find more magic or others to join us to go fight the vampire and remove one threat that is so close to home.
While we trained, we sent a courier to retrieve the plate mail the dwarves made for us in thanks of our aid in lifting the siege by the northmen.
We sold the few gems we found, and Zho Ni traded his magical mace for a magical flail, a weapon he knows how to use.
After training, we made final preparations to go to Port Finnesheim.
