Session 1
A new continent, a new story and a new group of adventurers. What will happen? Is it Tuesday yet?
Synopsis
A young cleric Berwick Andersmith wanders into Blademarket looking for the apothecary who which has been sending supplies to Osuvanne. He wanders into the workshop of Tomanas Elborin who says he'll help find the apothecary Berwick is looking for, if Berwick can track down his apprentice Luna Redmore. He proceeds to the East of the city, amongst the commotion of something happening and stumbles into The Rusty Bellows where Luna and a slightly injured Zeed are drinking.
Overhearing her name, Luna introduces herself and Berwick joins them at the table. Shortly after, a Loxodon Benjimaru and a wounded, poisoned Bugo stumble in, drawing a lot of attention to themselves. Berwick helps Bugo a bit, but with two unwell people, the decision is made to seek out an apothecary for better healing.
As Luna leads the party Northwards, they see young human, Hrolf Amarok and a Tabaxi, Shadow of a star walking down the street, but as they approach they notice a nearby building, Pott's Potions is on fire and there seem to be fire sprites inside it.
Hearing the sound of a child, Bugo misty-steps up to the first floor window and along with Hrolf, helps get the child out of the building and they grasp onto the skyline heading from the building to the ground. Hrolf hears the sound of a puppy inside the building and rescues the puppy.
While this is happening, Benji runs into the building and attempts to save the potions in a cabinet near the entrance of the building, meanwhile the fire sprites spread the fire within the building. In the distance, Tenders can be heard turning up, ringing bells to attract attention and call people to help put the fire out.
Luna and Zeed head to the workshop opposite, which Luna knows contains a well with a working winch, but the bucket is missing from the end. She lowers Zeed down on the end of the rope, he notices some markings in the well, and finds the bucket and ties it on the end of the rope. As he's winched up, other people and the Tenders turn up, forming a bucket chain to help with putting out the fire, but the building is ruined.
As the fuss dies down, a well-kept Dwarf, Filligrand Moreton, Sergeant-at-Arms introduces himself and thanks the party for their help putting the fire out. He invites them to the Mereton's office in the morning to be thanked properly and to answer some questions, meanwhile he starts speaking to the rest of the party. While talking to Filligrand, Benji recalls that the elementals had copper bands around their legs. Filligrand suggests the party stay together as there are questions to be answered in the morning and suggests they head back to The Rusty Bellows.
The group arrive at the Bellows and the bartender insists they pay upfront and settle their tab before being allowed in. They are given rooms in the cellar of the tavern as some of the Tenders stand guard out front to ensure they're still around to answer questions in the morning.
