Notes:
The Knights
meet Ellinore, the Head Librarian, who helps them find Bajol’s 2nd
book. Ellinore is a tall female elf with an otherworldly look about her. It is
hinted that she is both very old and very powerful and is the main defense of
the library. Frumious spends two weeks in the library researching a Sending
Spell. Fyn researches mechanical constructs during this time, as well as aiding
Frumious and touching base with Grigor.
Feydor and
Bajol head north to the Azure Guard Chapter House. Along the way they meet
Hefe, an Azure Guardsman, who tells them to ask for Markath. The Headquarters
of the Azure Guard is a massive stone fortress on the side of Blue Mount, overlooking
the necropolis and the library. Markath is the General Marshall and Rovis the
head Chaplin. After interrogating Feydor and Bajol under a zone of truth they
open up and treat the knight cordially. They reveal that there are about 600
Azure Guardsmen spread throughout 8 chapter houses. Guardsmen are divided between
squires, paladins, and clerics. The main chapterhouse has 100, 40 clerics, 50
paladins, and 10 squires.
Markath knew
Thomas quite well. Thomas was sent to establish a chapterhouse in Shadowmount.
Markath has not heard from him since. The Knights use Frumious’ circle dance
spell to deduce that Thomas is in the Halls of the Silent Lady 9and thus dead).
Feydor expresses an interest in being an official azure Guardsman, and vows to
see the Shadowmount chapterhouse established. Bajol spends the next two weeks
reading the second book of the Brulorian Sentinels. Feydor spends the two weeks training with the
Azure Guards (although he trains them more than the other way around). Markath
himself squares off with Feydor a few times to spar. After two weeks, in a
formal ceremony, Feydor is inducted into the Azure Guard with the rank of
Knight Marshall (second only to the General Marshall Markath) a rank
specifically for traveling Guardsmen of note. Feydor takes an oath to champion
the weak, defend the defenseless, and always work for the greater good.
After these
two weeks, the party gathers at the Azure Guard headquarters and spends two
days discussing courses of action. They note the following concerns:
*Carrion
King – in Illmar; plan to slay
*Puppet King
– unknown; plan to slay
*Shadow Lord
– posing as Mario in Goldmeadow; plan to slay
*Fingali –
somewhere north, presumably in the Choval Empire; plan to slay
*Daedalus –
perhaps back in his keep; plan to slay
*Hanging
Tree – need to explore?
*Chovalian
Empire – causing trouble, currently fighting a two front war
*God King of
the Giants – somewhere to the North; deal with in some regard
*Thomas – to
be avenged, see Daedalus
*Illmarian
Army – supposedly marching to Dragon Wastes to confront Giants, suspected to be
moving on Halvenspring
*Halvenspring
– final destination? Retrieve Allanora’s divinity
They decide
to book passage into the Chovalian Empire with the intent of finding Fingali
(and killing him) and perhaps disrupting the Empire if possible. From there
they plan to head west into Avonhollow, kill Daedalus and investigate the
Hanging Tree. After that they either go to Halvenspring (if everyone is
converging at that point) or (if not) head north to Illmar to kill the Carrion
King.
Frumious tests his sending spell and is able to make contact with Osgood.

Having made
a plan, they journey back to Misthold, and book passage on the Northern Gull.
The Wave Racer was headed to Urshalla of the 1,000 Sails, and so was the Gilded
Tortoise. The Sea Chopper refused to try to pass through the blockade, but
offered to take them to the Seven Vales. The Northern Gull however was heading
to Choval anyway and that is what they chose. End Session
