Resplendent Air :

15th Resplendent Air

Jade Wisdom wakes up very hungover.

Savvy goes fishing as a bear.

Scarred starts drinking again.

No one is sure where Phinnae is, and then she arrives in camp with a deer!

Everyone eats reasonably well as sleet falls around them.

Jade Wisdom, using some advanced five co-ordinate trigonometry, works out exactly where they are. This keeps him amused for a while, but as the answer is ultimately, "up fecal stream", not much use.

The Lunar girls take to the sky to scout around for some semblance of civilisation nearby, preferably on the river to provide access to new river transport.

The Solar and Jadeborn stay at the camp to keep watch over the mortals. Jade Wisdom is missing his tea and getting quite depressed and forlorn. He walks towards the river bank a little and sits and stares at the rippling water...

Some seven hours later Savvy returns with good news. She has spotted a village roughly two days walk down stream and inland a bit. Feeling quite pleased she becomes a bear again to keep Groany warm as night draws near. Soon after, Phinnae returns with now news to report.

16th Resplendent Air

At dawn the cold bedraggled company packs up what little camp there is and leaves the clearing. The Lunars take the lead and Scarred and Jade Wisdom take the rear. The mortals trudge in the middle, except for poor sick Groany who gets to ride Savvy in simhata form.

17th Resplendent Air

Cold and weary the rag tag group walk onwards through the sleet and woodland.

18th Resplendent Air

At about 10pm the group sees the outskirts of the village. It is at this point they become a little nervous about the visibility of their Artifacts and Lunars. After a small discussion they come to agree that Jade Wisdom should enter first, as he can pass for a Dragon-Blood, and Savvy can escort him as she can hide her moonsilver tattoos.

A few minutes later the pair are entering the village and Scarred smacks himself on the forehead with the remembering he can turn invisible, sneak in and steal whatever we needed. A bit late...

Savvy and Jade Wisdom find a small cottage with residents still awake. The Artisan knocks gently on the sturdy wooden door and soon the door is answered by a very beautiful young lady. She seems a little nervous. Jade Wisdom asks her for some help with lodgings for the group, and maybe some clothes or even rags if she could spare them. Savvy offers to repay with any services they can provide. At this the young woman perks up a bit, and says they do have a task that the village requires help with and invites them inside. On the way in the Lunar and Jadeborn introduce themselves and learn that the girls name is Lisda.

There is an old man inside; he looks about fifty after a hard life. Lisda introduces him as her father, Gare. The Jadeborn explains their situation again while Lisda goes off to organise some shelter in the stables. Jade Wisdom chitchats pleasantly to the old man in a friendly manner, which Gare seems to appreciate.

Added links to the first age exalts and linked other NPCs to my pages. - Bencyclopedia

Trying some organisational changes. If anyone has a better idea, I'd love to see it! :) Will leave the last couple of days in game time (or game sessions) up on this page and archive off the others on a rolling schedule (alternatively, one of you lot can do that too if you feel so inclined, just copy how I've done it. Each Archived day will usually be fairly short to read, has it's own comments section and should be easy to build off, but one thing I'm wary of is losing exactly what the party of misfits has learned. If it's archived away who's to say what day they learned the specific bit of info you're looking for to recall... hm... wordy sentences for the win tonight! Maybe each date should have a reminder about that day? So like: 16th Descending Wood - Nexus, quartet met, alley thugs, Taros intro. - nikink

Perhaps you could just have this page be a timeline with a brief rundown of each day + the calander with the links off to the more detailed descriptions. Possibly just have the most recent game or two on here as well, to act as a memory tickler if needed. - Bencyclopedia

I'm pretty sure you just said what I said... :) nikink

Quite possibly, I just did it less wordy :P Bencyclopedia

Damn homophones! :) nikink

What the hell is Toxophilite? - nikink

According to thefreedictionary.com a Toxophilite is a lover of Archery - Bencyclopedia

The more you know! :) nikink

Good grief! I hate falling behind on the notes... three pages transcribed, nineteen to go! I hope you people appreciate the effort! ;) nikink
