Diving Down
An adventurer captured during days of peace has shook the guild, and a set of experienced adventurers have set off towards the woods! There, through days of arduous travel they found what seemed to be a ritual site, a magical pillar floating just above the ground.
There, they opted not to topple the thing, as the voices inside of it bode ill, and instead solved its riddle, diving down into the chasms below… where they found a family. A father trapped in his study, and a mother preparing dinner, punishing the aforementioned patriarch for- well for something..
Dinner was not all pleasant however, this lady so keen on her manners was insulted thrice. First by rudeness, second by distrusting her food, and third by a well-timed dive onto the table by the Lizardfolk Cleric.. all hell broke loose, and the true colours of this family was shown!
A succubus and her Fiendish children, subservient all to the patriach locked in his study.. the fight was brutal and explosive, but with great effort it was won… yet victory was not whole. Amidst the Chaos, great Warlock of the guild, Quam the Ancient was slain, his throat ripped out by the Devils- only timely intervention by the magicks of the grave kept his soul from fleeing to the patron he serves, and allowed the guild’s healers to bring his body back to working order…
The escape was not easy, and a promise was made to the Cult’s leader to let him go free, which was fulfilled a few days later.. all the adventurers were safe and sound, but the cult was still at large, their leader fully able to rebuild..
Goblin Peace…
Having reformed goblins and orcs join our noble Adventurers Guild gave the opportunity to create peaceful relations with the forest goblins. Interrupting a large Goblin meeting, it seemed the goblins had joined the kobolds in worshipping the Sleeping Dragon, but disagreed among themselves whether the Dragon spoke through dreams, the High Priest, or Starstones. The Starstone faction was quickly dispatched and brought back in the fold by breaking their holy starstone and eating it (by the the present thieflings). One of our noble.. thieflings accepted the offered powers by the voices in his head/stomach and quickly cowed the remaining goblins into a peace alliance with NewTown.
