The Blooming Court Ch. 2

The group finishes plans to go to the Ren Faire, recounting the fight and what transpired during some members’ visit to the other side. They decide to pick up some supplies, place some orders, and stock up before the next leg of their trip. Eventually, they finally arrive at the Ren Faire, and Arguile gives a lay of the land. Shanks and Zechs make quick work of the archery game, Turk enters an exhibition fight to test his new abilities but gets promptly defeated, and Galahad has… a slightly more unique experience. 

The champion of Bahamut enters the jousting competition, summoning a pegasus as his mount. He loses the first match with the crowd favorite, The Red Knight, but with such a great battle, they go into a rematch right away. We see Galahad the victor, but he brings the Knight near death’s door, thankfully bringing him back with Lay on Hands. He hands him some coins as an apology and promptly leaves. In his exit, he unfurls the pegasus wings and hits a few onlookers with them before flying off. The rest of the crew split into groups. Turk and Zechs head to a fortune teller and get some very on-the-nose readings. Arguile and Shanks head to the casino, later meeting up with Zechs and Turk, where some had better luck than others. 

There’s so much happening, and that’s where we pick up…

The party had gotten to see Rig’s memory of the day she was betrayed by her adopted kin and cast out into the world. As they wandered into the next memory, they found themselves at a tower of sorts, Kyver having recognized it as the same one from his recent visions. As it had occurred to him that he was related to the possible murder of the angry spirit that dwells inside Weaqha, he couldn’t help but feel incredible guilt when faced with the same old sage who had been a father to Weaqha for so many years. 

Having departed from the tower, they set forth on the road behind the tower, finally beginning to piece together the clues from the visions they saw. Their final clue about an evil man coming to take the old sage, Master Feral’s life would be none other than Utholok, traveling in a Drakewoods travel carriage, escorted by a few, and led down the road by none other than Beth Grimdale, the very same person who hired Kyver to break into the tower. Having seen Weaqha unknowingly point the way towards the tower, the group carried on with heavy hearts, through what they thought to be the way back to Kyver’s house. 

Instead, they found themselves in the distant future where so much had gone very wrong. Outside Kyver’s home were 3 tombstones, for the Sabertooths, Marlo, Rhea, and Kyver. As the party cautiously wandered into the home, they found themselves face to face with an old, grey Attros, scars over one eye and beak, tattered robes, and a prosthetic leg- he drew his wand and shouted to them, “Nevermore!” as he readied a spell…
