Empyrean Decree

Rew is joined by Mike and Ryan as they reflect and analyze on Episode 14 of Empyrean Decree: Winds of Change

Our party finds themselves beaten and battered after their run in with Nadal's sister, and while they were able to fend her off her counterpart in the porcelain mask came to her rescue while blowtorching the street. Nadal laid on the floor, Belorage curled on his chest while Sam and Thea treated their wounds. Varek, shocked at a glance of his own morality, went to his room with Rygolean. Soon after, Thea stopped by to check in on her brother but quickly departed, leaving him to his own space. Rygolean, having tasted fire more powerful than any before, amassed the energy needed to hatch. Belorage came upstairs to join his little wyvern brother, and the party closed down for the night... only to be sent on a new adventure south the next day. 

As Lord Thereon Arafall and Lady Narcellia Dryallis enter the Moon Festival dinner, Nadal begins to panic at the shock of his sister being alive. He shares their last meeting, where he ran a sword through her and left her for dead before fleeing the under dark. The dinner party begins before they can flee, will the night take a turn for the worse?  

Kick back for your weekly edition of the Empyrean Report! Our host Rew is joined by Mike and Eric as we take an in-depth dive at the happenings behind Episode 12: Ghosts of Yesterday. 

Our party finds themselves calling it a night at the crossroads south of Kabronoa where Thea and Gideon have a heart to heart about life. She expresses her frustration at 'giving up her life' to another and not wanting to be connected to another being that's always in her head. Gideon opens up a small space to chat, giving Thea a break from Tranchevant. Rygolean and Varek have their own chat while Nadal goes fox hunting for Belorage's dinner. Artemis hangs out while Sam makes a few new friends.

At daybreak, a military convoy moves south and Varek gets to see their Uncles banner flying among the lead cavalry. He makes a final report to Lt Alma. An older gentleman approached the group, delivering a mini keg of stout to Sam, who slips him two blue pills. They pack up and hit the road, spending the entire day to Llassy on the road west.

It’s fairly busy and Llassy is known as the gateway to the west. Before they see the city, they can see the purple and black spires lined in silver reflecting in the distance as it stands over the hills. To the south are open plains and speckles of trees with a small settlement. There are three windmills and a few houses close together. The road brings you through the sparsely laid trees and splits in several directions that all lead into farmland that approach the city's walls.

All of the roads rejoin at different places in the farmlands to the southwest of the city walls. The group can see two entrances, one to the northern side of the wall, and one on the more southern side of this wall. There are people working in the fields beginning to plant their crops that they hope to see bountiful in the coming months. They decide to enter the closest one and Sam calls upon a raven to help them find a purple one.

The party finds themselves at an historic archives, where Gideon meets his aunt and uncle for the first time. His mother had sent a letter and item. They discuss the growing problems across the realm and start to put some of the pieces together before the two elder elves send them to the pre-festival dinner held at Castle Von Drak.

The party arrives, being announced as “Black Dawn” before spreading out and mingling. Thea and Varek approach Isabelle, Nadal heads for the food, and they all end up reconvening before a startling name is announced that shocks Nadal.

Our party finds themselves moving forward with their questioning of their goblin prisoner, finding vague details of a manufactured drug that might be useful against the Empire of Divine Spiritas. After much debate on which direction to proceed in, they decide to continue on their journey west, stopping to finally make camp at the crossroads before Kabronoa.
