Roads Uncharted

Eight and Arthas arrive at the park with Benny and the illusory cat, Liquid. At first, handing a cat to the toddler does not work in the pair’s favor. Benny’s attention is quickly diverted when a vendor selling treats comes into view. Eight quickly obliges, but learns children are not great at negotiating when they try to exchange the treat for the cat.

Enlisting some help from the vendor, Eight and Arthas are able to get the cat from the child’s tight grip. As a show of appreciation for the assistance, Eight happily performs a trick with Liquid.

It has been a week since the party met the spellweaver named Venya. While Eight and Arthas are enjoying breakfast, their innkeeper, Beverly, informs them that the inn would be closed for the afternoon while she hosts a seminar. The pair then proceed to wrap up some leftovers in preparation to go meet with Arcterus.

It is at this point that their morning is interrupted by Beverly’s daughter, who is in desperate need of a baby-sitter. In exchange for two free nights, Beverly convinces Eight and Arthas to watch her grandson, a toddler named Benny. 

It isn’t long before Eight and Arthas realize that baby-sitting is not as easy as they might have supposed.

The retired sea pirate Rodag has invited Eight, Rou, and Arthas to play an old game with him in the Kidohlvan Library. A game of mystery, of action, of fantasy - the classic and iconic game, Danger & Daring!

Stowed away in an alcove of the library after hours, our party joins a member of the staff and the retired pirate in their first roleplaying game. They introduce their characters and learn the mechanics as they maneuver between roleplaying nuances and combat.

On the other side of the door is a lovely sitting room, sunlight gleaming through leaded glass. In one of the chairs sits a figure cloaked in silver robes, their face obscured by a hood. The group immediately recognizes that this is the individual they saw upon their arrival in Kidohlva.

They reveal their name is Venya, and that a week before the group arrived they had a vision.

Upon sharing the details of the vision, the four of them start to discuss the meaning behind it and Rou shares some doubts as to why they’ve been chosen to hear it. When he questions Venya’s motives, they admit they can’t force them to solve this mystery. For a week they’ve been haunted by this vision, and now it is up to the group to determine what to do with this information.

Arthas and Rou spend a few days doing their own research, as well as indulging in some of the activities that Kidohlva has to offer. Arthas is finally able to get his first tattoo and Rou partakes in some of the lectures offered at the university. Eight, on the other hand, gets lost in their research and leaves little time to indulge in anything else.

One day, while studying together in the observation lounge, the group notices that the staff assigned to assist them suddenly leaves the room without a word. Rou and Arthas then begin to feel their eyelids grow heavy, the muscles become weary and the draw of sleep becomes strong. Even Eight begins to feel drowsy and fails to resist the hold of this strange force.

They soon realize that they’re in a dark abyss. A voice speaks from the darkness, echoing in the vast space. A door opens, light shining through, beckoning to the trio of companions.

The librarian Zura escorts Arthas past a hall of portraits and into an older section of the library. As the pair scan tomes and scrolls for information on Giant-Kin, Arthas comes across what appears to be a text depicting cultural aspects of his people, though not necessarily obtained through honest means.

The further he digs, the more he learns that some of the Aerir’s teachings may have been false. He also comes across some interesting information regarding the being that allegedly caused his deity’s death. In order to complete his quest, Arthas learns that there are dangerous steps ahead.

Zura tells Arthas that all knowledge is worth having, even if it comes at a cost. When she sees that this truth has taken a toll on Arthas, she suggests a cup of hot chocolate to make him feel better.

The librarian Jenar brings Eight to a very old section of the archives. Although she leaves them with an electric lantern, Eight casts a light spell on their head for hands-free assistance. The area has been left disorganized and cluttered, but that doesn’t appear to diminish the Warforged’s enthusiasm. After some preliminary searching to determine the contents of the section, Eight calls Jenar back and the two begin digging in earnest.

Jenar shares that, as part of the War of Seven Hells, Eulelan revolutionists contracted with an inventor in Baukora to design Warforged for their side. However, war profiteers were able to obtain copies of the blueprints and share them with the Adar-Kai Empire. This would mean Warforged have been around for over 400 years. 

Scouring old maps and ledgers, Eight is able to figure out the family crest that matches the bird on their plating. Although further information couldn’t be obtained about the missing city, they are left with a mystery on a map thousands of years old.
