The Blooming Court Ch. 1
The aftermath of the fight sees Zechs, Turk, and Shanks being brought back up. Turk’s magic seems to have left him, as a plume of black smoke leaves him, and Zechs has a white handprint that has appeared on his own hand where Tumra touched him. Turk appears visibly angry with his former patron, and Galahad tries to assess the group. Shanks is brought back from the brink of death, and he awakes, feigning memory loss, to cut the visible tension. Zechs heals Arguile and directs Arguile towards his brother and mother. The family reunites and comforts each other through their grief, then reconvenes with the party before heading back into the city. The party looks over the area to see if there’s anything worth grabbing before heading out and finds several things, including armor that they’re unsure is cursed, so Turk holds off on putting it on until they can find something better suited for him.
The party decides to head to their lodgings rather than Dorna’s home, at least until they can be sure it’s safe for them to return. As they return, per their usual routine, the drinks begin to pour, and some seem a bit more tense after the fight than others. After checking in on one another and trying to plan their next moves, the group decides to go out on the town to get some tattoos. Shanks, Turk, Glad, Galahad, Arguile, and even Dorna all join in getting tattoos and blowing off some steam.
Later that night, Shanks, Turk, and Zechs all divulge what happened to them while they were out of commission, and they all had wild experiences with gods and patrons, which they are shocked by; this is fairly normal for them. There’s a bit of inventory sorting and such before heading out to negotiate for Galahad’s belt. With some trades, gold, and bartering, he’s able to acquire the Belt of Fire Giant Strength. There are plans to pick up their special gear, Glad’s boon via airship, and a trip to the Ren Faire for some much-needed revelry after a long few weeks.
There’s so much happening, and that’s where we pick up…

Last time on Mercurial Avengers, Kyver had just found himself home and face-to-face with his mother, but time stood still as the group saw a rift that opened up behind them. As they ventured through it, they traveled through the memories of their companions, gaining a peek into Attros’ past and the day Kyver was taken away to the Vineyard.
