Session 1: 12/21/2008

  • Descending Water 24
    • Phoenix travels with his followers from the far east to investigate rumors of Deathlords in the Scavenger Lands. As they approach Great Forks they spot smoke in the distance, the crew is urged to stop and Phoenix leaps at the chance to investigate.
    • Phoenix discovers a smoldering and destroyed village with few remaining bodies and few clues, continues to Great Forks.
    • arrives in Great Forks to declare he is here to destroy the Dealthlords, is directed to Thorns but no one seems willing to take them there or even knows exactly where to find it.
    • Husk has arrived in the Scavenger Lands after the urging of his warstrider Penance, and stumbled across a village under the terror of a demon. He defeats the demon, and during his stay there finds a young boy.
    • The boy, Godfried, says his village was destroyed by 'The Chaos' and that he ran here. Husk discovers that the boys village is more than a week away. Husk decides to head to Great Forks to further investigate the matter and takes Godfried back with him.
    • Sarefine has been tending to Aktuelles Temple during his absence when he begins to here rumors of destroyed villages, after some investigation he decides to investigate the towns themselves. He finds each village destroyed and burned with no signs of any survivors, his efforts to track the force causing the damages lead to dead ends. She returns to Great Forks in search for help or more information.
    • As fate would have it as Phoenix left the city he passed by Husk, the outgoing Phoenix asked if Husk knew the way to Thorns. Obviously intrigued they struck up conversation and before long it was settled that they would stay in Great Forks for the time being to seek more infomration and resources to help the people of the land and fight the Deathlords.
    • Not long after their arrival the found themselves entering Aktuelle's Temple which was currently being looked after by Sarefine, who immediately recognized that she had rather important guests. Before long the three of them had agreed to help investigate the strange attacks on the surrounding villages.
    • Sarefine and Phoenix visited several local taverns in serch of more information but found no survivors of the village attacks, and ended up doing more recruiting for the Unconquered Sun than information gathering. Some information was gained from a local hunter, that the attacks happened at night and that the number of people with in the village didn't seem consistent with the number that entered and exited them.
    • Husk meanwhile visited several temples in search of answers about Godfried and other information. It was confirmed that Godfried was in fact a God-Blood and that a form of instant transportation was not completely impossible. A visit to the immaculate temple did not gain much direct information, but Husk was able to convince the Abbot to investigate the village to the South without revealing his identity as a solar exalt. He also learned that General Blood Linnet, Ministry of Military started an investigation into the attacks.
