Template:Rise of the Runelords chapter

Return to Whitewillow Myriana do ritual to Lamatars body where she dies and he was reborn as a centaur. I forgot to ask her if the hags were her sisters

Return to Magnimar I become baroness and family honor restored. I'm not sure what that means. Go to several parties They get boring. Especially when Gloriana tells me not to do anything fun

Velicia traveled the wilds Leave Gloriana and Dorothea return to Turtleback ferry and name Maelin Shreed as my stand in Honeypot left for whitewillow I went to the Foxglove manor and tried to hire an new keeper, but after the fate of the last one it wasn't that easy

I tried to repair it a little by myself.

I often visited both Sandpoint and Magnimar, but stayed mostly on the countryside

It was a beautiful spring when Velicia gathered us A bank wanted to hire us Somebody broke into the vault by paralyzing the guards and stole a sword and some money The sword was a special sword of lust they knew who had done it: Tirana and where she had gone: Kaer Maga

We discussed how to get there and decide to use shadow step and phantom steed

The city is in a hexagonal tower next to cliffs The tower is gigantic in a way as other thousands of years old stuff we've seen lately

hive of scum and villainy

The guards stop us to get toll I point out how poor we are as we cant even afford real horses. Velicia try to intimidate him but ends up intimated and pay what they ask

Street kids approach. We hire Pike

We check out the night life and ask around for Tirana Velicia found out about Council of Truth - were insane magicians saying there's no evil only knowledge but now all extinct

I and Honey find out that Tirana hangs with a gang It's called The Split Street ~100

They hang out below Tarheel where CoT used to hang out

Went back to the tavern and went to sleep.

Woke up and had a breakfast made by Kaven

We all went to the market and found Gadka. He had a wagon from which he was selling powders and stuff.

I quickly knew I didn't want to buy any of his stuff so I went straight for the point.

I told him we knew he had problems with the split street gang and that they were working together with Tirana.

I wanted to know where she was so we could go there to get her.

He didn't react very well to that. Stupid dwarf! Or perhaps stupid merchant!

I noted a few gangers approaching and as Gadka didn't seem to want to help I went to nearby shadows and kept an eye on the gangers.

They walked around but did look like they were outside of their turf, looking behind their backs and not the usual peacock strut.

I followed them

We told them that their time was up.

Velicia started seting up a fire. She was determined to barbecue a sheep

After a while the gangers returned in force.

We hid.

They sneak around and I threw my dagger

Big fight

They defeated

The annoying dwarf gave us potions of vitality. He told us about the place Tirana hangs out

It had big machines and rotating knives.

He will lead us there

Entering the dangerous place

We went to the entrance where the dwarf turned back.

Kaven followed him to make sure he was well.

Honeypot cast some rituals before we entered. Telepathy and resist energy surge. It was very expencive, but the sword we were looking for was a burning sword so we thought that protection from fire was a sure bet.

We opened the door and found a room with white marble floor and walls. It is magically lit and very bright. There was a raised basin with fish in. We went in, Velicia leading the way and I jumped up and walked along the edge of the basin. Honey followed me.

As we continued down the room we were suddenly attacked by crossbow bolts being shot from the left wall. We couldn't see the crossbowmen, but Velicia suddenly disappeared as she teleported away. There were noises of a fight from the other side of the wall. Honey urged me on and I ran along the edge of the basin up to the door in the far end and opened it. I was almost surprised that it wasn't locked when they had set up the ambush with the crossbowmen. I went into the corridor beyond and noticed a hidden door on my left side as I stealthily took position. Honey and Gloriana followed me out into the corridor. Gloriana looked worried and hurt with several wounds from crossbow bolts, but Honeypot helped her. I opened the secret door from behind the door and suddenly stabbed the cossbowman inside in the throat. He had been ready to shoot anyone entering but never got off his shot. further inside is a cramped corridor filled with crossbowmen, a woman armed with two scimitars, a leader for the troops and Velicia fighting them.

Honey and Gloriana downs another of the crossbowmen and Velicia teleported out to us others. She brought a crossbowman with her and he got stuck between me and Honeypot, but almost immediately she teleported back in again. The crossbowman was distracted by Honeypot as I stabbed him in the back. He was dead before he hit the floor. (67hp) After some magic from the others the remaining ganger gave up. Velicia told them they could leave if they went straight out and didn't come back. They agreed and as we led them out we started talking to them and they mentioned that they were set there to guard the entrance while Tirana was casting a big important ritual. As we were distracted the woman armed with the two scimitars suddenly ran away along the corridor and around the bend ahead. I followed as quick as I could into the next room, which was more like a cave, but she had disappeared. I quickly retreated back to the others, but had time to notice a small devil and lots of lightning in the cave.

I told the others and Velicia asked what kind of devil it was and I told her it was a red one. The others called it an imp. We escorted the rest of the gangers out and the leader, who had been the one to give up, told us it was foolhardy to run like that in the trapped corridors of that place.

When they had left we gathered our strength and continued into the cave. We tried to sneak in to surprise the little devil. It had made itself invisible and tried to hide, but I noticed where it was and got a little carried away forgetting to sneak. It chattered about it being king of the cave and that we had to bow and give it all our magical items. It probably felt pretty safe. Therefore it was quite surprised when I shouted "Then have this!" as I threw my dagger straight into its chest, wounding it heavily. It only coughed blood as a reply as I retreated back around the corner and hid to prepare another surprise attack. I heard the sound of lightning and could smell it in the air. Honeypot helped me by blinding it with her fairy dust magic. I then stealthily moved into the room and threw my dagger once more, this time straight into an eye, instantly slaying the little demon.

We could see a small pile of treasure it had collected. It was surrounded by walls of lightning that looked pretty dangerous. Honey jumped over it and collected a magical sickle and a magical scale armor
