Last time, our group found themselves outside the eastern gate of Nymora, where Kyver had seen his past tormentor, the son of the Vitalis family, Abraxis. Although he had to hold himself back from chasing after him, Rig and the others used this opportunity to disguise themselves and head in while playing themselves off as a noble and their bodyguards.
Despite hearing noises coming from behind them, the party pushed further in, moving past the guards, as a small caravan of people was being chased by a mutated monster towards the gate. We'aqha left Franchise behind to see through its eyes the carnage that ensued as yet another beast appeared, despite the bravery of a young air genasi attempting to fend them off. With the help of some of the guards and the young warrior Arnable, the beasts were driven off, and the survivors were taken in, but only after taking some losses.
With a heavy heart, our adventurers set off further into the city, past the market area and into the bridge ward, where they stayed at the Cat’s Cradle Inn. As the others rested, We'aqha, full of rage and distraught by the events of the day, gave into his inner voice, “one must die,” and found his way to Poncho, who had separated from them and was merely enjoying some late-night gambling. After pulling Poncho further away from where anyone might hear him, We'aqha attempted to kill him, but Poncho, showing his rogue-like abilities, darted off into the shadows before re-emerging and striking We'aqha with a critical blow that left him unconscious. After robbing him of a few belongings and leaving him for dead, Poncho headed off into the night, where, after, We'aqha was taken in by someone who found him lying there unconscious.
With the next morning, Rig, Kyver, and Cereius reconvened, eating breakfast at the open dining hall while speaking to some of the locals, like Lynx, about some of the carnage that ensued last night, as well as the change in scenery with a blight that had made its way to the edges of Nymora more recently.
While the others enjoyed their coffee and breakfast treats, Cereius found himself allergic to some of the local foods, causing a bit of a fun exchange between everyone, just before Poncho arrived to ask the party what was up with their blue friend trying to murder him last night.
Just at about the same time, We'aqha woke up, having found himself in the care of Arnable, a young, up-and-coming knight in the city who had just returned recently. After a short exchange, Weaqha headed off on his way, wildshaping into a bird and flying out the window...
