Downtime in the Village

During the two weeks of downtime we had, Blossom decides to search for rumors about the bandits to the south. She discovers that they likely have informants within Nightwick village.

Liminal Space researches Bloatus and ways to kill it. He finds an account from the Siege of Nightwick where a creature called the Piteous Worm is mentioned in conjunction to a man named "Balodis" who can produce a terrible heat that melts any around him.

Verinka recovers the magical sword "Slasher," that we "acquired" from the Great Goblin and had be lost when its previous wielder left the party.

The Changeling formerly known as Bluegum has become star struck by Liminal Space and has changed her name to Lemony Spice in honor her hero.

Liminal Space spends the week gourmandizing and gets terrible indigestion - he will have to rest every 3 turns down in the dungeon to "spew out of both ends."

This session was such a mess that it took two write-ups to cover. Read more about it at I Cast Light!

Downtime in Lychgate

Ulf spends the week searching for rumors about the Hund Prest and learns two things about him. First, during the night he rides across the bishopric, attended by his "hounds," as we learned last week, but by day sleeps in his old lodge in the middle of the Little Heath and second, many have slain him before but he always reappears the next year. A weapon "of particularly supernal puissant holiness" might be able to banish him to the Pit forever. We suspect the the Shard of God, the holy weapon currently held by Blossom, might do the trick.

Mayfly and Liminal Space both go carousing - Mayfly enjoys a night on the down drinking with the Corbies, but Liminal is poisoned by the Brotherhood (of Thieves and Assassins) and starts the session down 5hp.

Several potential hirelings offer up their services to us in Lychgate and we hire two of them.

A woodsmen named Henr offers his services for 10sp per month plus 10sp danger pay if combat should occur on a delve. Ulf hires him.

Laur, a crossbowman recently of Badder's Company who had a falling out with said group, offers up his services for 10sp a month and 10sp danger pay. Liminal hires him.

Into the Abbey

We uneventfully return to Nightwick Village with the Corbies in tow and decide to return to the Gardens of level 2 to continue exploring there. Delving down into the abbey, we quickly pass through level 1 and reach level 2 without incident.

Nightwick Abbey - Session 70 - Solving Problems With the Power of Friendship and Money

Session 70 - 28th of September, 1392

This week's adventurers:

Mayfly (Magician 4)

Cherwe (Cleric 4)

Yevegniy the Coward (Cleric 4)

Verinka (Changeling 3)

Ulf (Magician 3) 

Liminal Space (Changeling 3)

Krupe (Cleric 1)

Bluegum (Changeling 1)

Hirelings: Gutteral Noises, Ditl (Cleric 2)

Downtime in the Village

Liminal and Blossom have spent the past couple of weeks in search of a cure for Mechtilde. Blackleg to the south holds potential, as do rumors of a saint in the forest to the southeast, but as far as we know, the rebels who bested Lord Eckhard in battle still reside there. We decide instead to go to Lychgate to petition the Bishop for healing.

Hearing of our journey, Lord Eckhard pays the party 100sp to deliver a letter from him to the bishop, sealed with his was seal to prevent prying eyes.

Verinka, Krupe, and Bluegum all go carousing during the week. Verinka winds up hungover, Krupe offends the local church, and Bluegum loses all of her money and barely survives a poisoning attempt.

On the Road to Lychgate

Fall has arrived in the world of Nightwick, the air is damp as we set out at dawn to go north to Lychgate, carrying Mechtilde along with us.
