The Reawakening Festival- A group of Travelers had made their way to Kinallen some came for the Festival other came for reasons of their own. At the Height of the Festival a man dressed in Noble clothes enters the Stage. Yelling of Immortality and gaining power from his benefactor, the man begins to cast a spell to the sky and bursting out his back comes a Nothic. In the chaos that ensued four strangers stepped forward and destroyed the Fiend. Upon destroying the creature they were approached by a Halfling Women, she helped defused the commotion with the guards and escorted them to the Tavern. They learned of the divide between the common folk and the Nobles and that the Halfling Suaranan and her Husband Geoangle had started a Guild called the Handyman Guild much to her dismay. After a night of Drinks and Conversation the group heads out to the Handyman Guild in the Morning. Upon entering the Guild they were met with a Joyous Half Orc Name Israbeth. While in the Guild they Met a Tiefling name Ozthor From the Hunters Guild who was trying to shake down the Geoangle. After a unpleasant back and forth Ozthor stormed out threatening to remember this. After a conversation with Geoangle the group decided to take a job to check on the small village of Goedrin where people have gone missing, after much paperwork and logistics the characters have been made subcontractors of The handyman Guild. The group also took on a mission to escort and resupply caravan set to travel to Goedrin. They meet an odd old man named Melvin Vuvron who was set to drive to the cart, they setup camp for the Night. During the night Aromire began to wander from the camp and forgot to fuel the fire, without the fire the group was attacked by 3 wolves. During the battle Corrin was Mortally wounded. After the battle they set in for the night, in the morning they have packed up the caravan and continue on their journey........ 

The Group has found there way to Geodrin, there they have found the town in Shambles.Melven has informed them that he should be ready to head back within 2-3 days and they are expected to drive 3 more carts back to Kinallen. The town Folk have told them of their plight and the troubles in this Town. After interviewing the citizen they have been informed that the children have been going missing during the night, nothing before their disappearance would lead them to believe foul play. The Lord of the Town Oth Sodir informed them that the Children may have been taken by the Goblins that tried to barter with the town. After talking to many other Citizens it seems that the old Alchemist Zandrin has had much contact with the children. The group met with Zandrin personally, after much questioning they found out one of the Children Gerny had been to visit him and ask for aid in hunting down the Goblins. The group made their way through the Forrest and arrived at a Goblin Den seeing many Goblins have already been brutally Murdered. After clearing out the den of many other Goblins and one strange one they found Gerny on the Ground Deformed and suffering from an Overusage of Mountain Root. With no sign of the Children in the cave the party is now rushing back to Zandrin hoping that he can help.........

After returning Genry to Zandrin the Alchemist they headed back to Geodrin.The group Continued their Investigation after spending the night searching the town, Corrin seemed to send a warning to the Noble about his lost ledger. The group decided to search the school teachers house, Corrin sneaked in and didn't find anything to suspicious. Aromire found two people on the pier and was informed that the school teacher lived out of town. Aromire searched the second guard tower and found what seemed to be explosives and weapons. Vyth was greeted by a cat that seemed to have in interest in him, Vyth soon recognized that this cat was not an Ordinary Cat. In the morning, the group found out that another child has gone missing Glan the son of the Fishing market master Rabem. Vyth picked up the tracks of the small child and followed them out of town, the tracks let them to the home of Beatris the school teacher. In the basement they found 4 older people who after investigating found to be the missing children except one. The group escorted the children to Zandrin and headed back to Beatris's house to ambush her. Laying in wait, they ambush Beatris as she returns home, after they attack her old form turns into that of a young beatiful woman. After slaying the woman the group continued to search her house for signs of what has happened to the kids. The group set up camp across from the home watching as beatris's body slowly burns away.     

The group Returned to Zandrins, there Zandrin saw the necklace with the glowing necklace and threw it into the fire. The fire seemed to cleanse the gem and the children reverted back to their age. Vif stayed the same age and was questioned by the group, they found out that he played some roll in the kidnapping of the Children and with Beatris. The group then lead Vif to town to face his punishment, after informing the town that some of the Children have been found they asked some of the Villagers to come and Confront Oth Sodir to get answers and the proper punishment for Vif's actions. When they arrive at Oth Sodirs Tower, most of the towns people have gathered and had the look of wanting someone to pay for the crime commited against them. Oth Sodir tried to talk down the situation, but after many back and forth and a stray arrow shooting threw the crowd strikes Vif and all out chaos breaks out. The guards from the other Tower quickly dispersed the mob. The group ran away with Vif, hiding on the outskirts of Town. After trying get Melvin and the Wagons out of Town Corrin is Caught and Captured. He then gets interrogated and tortured into the location of Oths Ledger. Vyth tracks down Corrins scent and finds that he is in the Guards Tower, the group tries to gain entry into the tower and are stopped. After much dispute and confrontation a deal is met that with the Return of Vif Oth will in Return give them Corrin. Corrin is returned bloodied and wounded. A fight breaks out and the Party kill Oth Sodir and escape out of town......   

The Group trying to get more information wander around town.Geoangle has returned back to the Handy man guild and informed them of a Contact of His Leslie Lodick who use to be an investigator for the City Guard. After contacting Leslie at the Wisp Winery  they paid her to look further into the Ledger, after that they wandered around the Upper District Visiting the Chapel. There they met Bishop Weldon and Acolyte Finigin, after conversing they chose that Bishop Weldon was not a man for them to befriend. While leaving the Chapel Bromrik conversed with Finigin and was given a symbol to follow. While in the Noble Quarters they searched for the Wagon they saw on the Road, three wagons caught their eyes one on the road traveling with  a family of nobles, One parked on the grounds on a lively Family, and one parked in the back of a very quiet large manor. After leaving the upper district the walked threw the market, there they met Drogen Rocksmasher a local blacksmith who informed Bromrik of the symbols meaning. The symbol was that of a local resistance trying to rise up again the royalty of Kinallen and once again bring equality to this City. After leaving they made there way back to the Handyman Guild, they all went with their tasks and continue the day. As the sun started to set Leslie returned with two books and called the group into Geoangles office. She asked their intention with the books and opened it revealing its contents................................

The Group gave the book and their information to Amadadias Finch who seemed disinterested with the information he recieved. After spending a night at the inn they were awoken with town guards. They were escorted to the prison, after being told to enter the cell Aromire cast Fog Cloud and was assaulted by the mysterious Elf. After being knocked out instantly the group agreed to enter the cells. After two days of talking to guards and inquiring about their fate they were informed that they were to be hanged for their crimes of killing a nobles. A young female guard named sally gave them an item and told them to believe in hope, they were all hanged on display and found themselves in a small dark room under the hangman knot. They found a door which while trying to be picked was opening by a rather odd man named BARRY. They were lead to the secret hideout of the Resistance which was hidden deep in the sewers. There they met the leader the long thought dead First Born son and rightful heir Nesdesh.

The Group after talking with the members of the Resistance had decided to ally themselves with them. After talking they Met some interesting Figures, Khuggen Oxfot of Dhirn and Emissary of the Council, Kressla the Blender, Little Pete the muscle and Barthon the right hand man. After much conversation they met the mysterious and Beautiful Lady Sandru. After hearing of what they had on the go they all agreed that dealing with the Kidnapping and the Murderer in Town was the most Crucial Task at the Moment. They were tasked with Guarding Lady Sandru while she played bait for the Murderer, after much conversations and intrusions the night at the Wanderlust Tavern passed. They followed Lady Sandru and her new young Companion Ellie out of the Bar where they tried their best to follow them but with were assaulted by a group of Thugs looking for an easy score in Corrin. Corrin kept to his mission and kept pace with Sandru and Ellie. The rest of the group dealt with the Thugs trying to stop Corrin and with Vyths nose caught the Trail of Lady Sandru and found Corrin in the Courtyard. They went into the Cellar following Sandrus Scent, there they were assaulted by all manner of traps and devices. The party started to fall around them and Bromrik landed the final blow on the Trapmaster and began to question the Trap Master Qqqesktek. After his ravings and madness the group decided to take him back to the Hideout to question him there.

The group finds themselves inside the Hideout, there Vyth challenged Bromrik to a trial by combat. Bromrik defeated Vyth in combat and Vyth informed them he would be returning home. Nesdesh informed the group that the Kobold informed him that the Mistress Temple is where his breathren are. They were tasked with finding Curator Elyon who seems to be a very old individual that is well respected in the community, the Curator was very open to their task and made them a bargain, if they promise to gather a couple books for him he inturn would give them the means to locate the temple and rescue the Children and Women. The group traversed the town and headed down the shore to the Location on the Map, there they used the Scroll Provided to reveal the Entrance of the Tunnel. They enter the Temple and start to Traverse.         

The group went up the mysterious ladder, they found there way into the Manor of Lord Dresken. There they found information which lead to Lord Dreskens True Motives and learned that he was the man at the Festival who transformed into the Demon. After searching his home intently they found what they were after and proceed back into the Catacombs of the Temple. After delving deeper they found a holding cell for all manner of creatures, after passing and looking further they heard chanting within a room. After opening the doors after much difficulty they found there way into a summoning Ritual. They Kobold seemed to be in distress at seeing it was not working, as Lord Charlemagne split the Kobolds blood on the circle he realized the missing reagant and tried to sacrifice himself to complete the summoning, with quick thinking Bromrik silence the Kobold ending the Ritual. After defeating the Kobold Summoner the group found there way deeper into the Dungeon avoiding a large Pitfall. After searching Further they found more Kobolds and within it a Kobold Commander who seemed to have been expecting them. They Dispatched the Commander and now sit within a Study........................ 

The group after Interrogating the Kobold Commander found out that the Girls are still within the Temple. After falling for two more pitfall traps, the group find the location of the Missing Women and Children. There they meet Anastriana Mystralath a Elven Woman who seemed to be well adapted in the ways of magic, the women seem to have been down there for a long period of time and were exhausted and hungry. The group lead them to a Kobold guard post and told them to wait there. The group ventured on deeper into the Temple, after searching for her focus and spellbook Anastriana felt complete again. The group heard chanting coming down the hallway and found a group of Kobolds preforming a Ritual infront of a Large alter. In front of them a woman laid upon the altar and had a purple hew encasing her. Anastriana used her mastery of the Arcane to lock the Priest in place, the group quickly dispatched the Kobold and took care of the threat in front of them. After checking on the female on the Alter the group found a purple orb, after Anastriana grabbed the Orb she was consumed with a bright Purple Flame. The group watched as she stood there completely still eyes rolled into the back of her head. After a period of time the flames disappeared and Anastriana returned to her normal self visibly shaken. The group started to lead the woman and children out of the temple and headed to Lord Grigori Charlemagnes home after he offered them a place to stay for the evening. After meeting Charlemagnes family the group discussed their next actions and decided to bring the children of Kinallen back to their homes. They went their ways off into the night............                

The group at Lord Charlemange's talked about the issues that have arisen since leaving the Temple, they decided to bring the Children to Curator Elyon. After arriving at the Library by themselves they finish their dealings with Elyon handing over the books that he requested.There they met a bard by the name of Allimar, right away he was taken aback by Anastriana's good looks. He informed the group he was a collector of tales and was informed by Elyon that you all seemed to run into areas where tales seem to grow. After asking Elyon for Aid he agreed to look over the children and figure out what had happened to them in the Temple. On their way to retrieve the Children from the Manor they stop and Visit Goodwins Goods, there Goodwin at the sight of  Anastriana ran into the back room shutting the Door. Anastriana blinks away and after a couple moments both she and Goodwin reappear he seemed shaken. After much discussion on party money they finished their dealing and returned to the Manor. After gathering the Children they Returned to Elyon and had the girls examined. Elyon informed them that the girls seemed to have been touched by the Goddess Neandris and inturn seem to have become more intuned with the Magical Energy that is returning to the World. Elyon gave the group pieces of Advice and sent them along their way. The Group has decided to Return the Children to Geodrin where their parents await...............  

            Lord Charlemange decides that he has more pressing matter he must attend to within the Walls on Kinallen, So many unanswered question to follow up on and wishes you all a safe journey and will be available at his manner when needed. Anastriana,Bromrik and Corrin make their ways to the Docks and Fight the Vessel owner Bart waiting for them. After some back and forth it was agreed he would sail all 6 down to Geodrin. It seemed the Goddess Nataldian was on their side as their passage to Geodrin was smooth sailing. Anastriana told the stories of water fairies and tales of warning about getting too close to the edge of the boat. In the afternoon the arrive at Geodrin, the city seemed to be falling into even more ruin as one of the Docks were destroyed and some of the building were burning. As they are dropped off at the Dock they see Fisherman Tom being attacked by 2 ruffians and seemed to have no intention of talking. Our band of adventures jumped into action and defended Tom and the Newly Introduced Klinton from the waves of attackers. After Reuniting Tom with his Daughter Illisandra he informed the group they should make their way to the tower where the New Lord was trying to hold up and protect the towns people.                 They make their way toward the tower and take in the Havoc that has been happening to the city the tower that once held the cache of weapons that Armorie discovered had been blown up and reduced to rubble. The closer to the tower they get the louder the noises of battle became, they turned the corner of the large warehouse and saw and fully armored man and a woman with similar attire fight off another group of Ruffians.After some heated combat the group were introduced to Lord and Lady Xangri who have been appointed to be the new rulers of the Town of Geodrin, he informed them that these Bandits have been assaulting the city for about a week after demanding the return of the Money Oth Sodir borrowed from them and the back pay for the mercenaries that he Hired. After introduction he led them into the tower and showed them to where the rest of the citizens were on the second and third level of the Tower. They talked of the situation they were in and the multiple plans that could be followed. During the Night Anastriana summoned a Bat and sent into the night to keep a lookout for imposing forces. Thru the night a bandit threw a note on the door and fell into one of the Traps that Bromrik Setup. The group were informed by Lord Rhiden that Bandits wish to negotiate and to meet them at the edge of town at first sunrise, Anastrianas bat saw about 12 torches outside the city setup at the entrance and gave the group a sense of hope as they had already taken down that many in the day passed.           In the morning the group with the Lord and Lady set out to the main street to Negotiate with the Bandits. As they approached the Numbers were far greater then initially thought and out front of the mass of Bandits was a Large imposing man and Slim woman who seemed to stick out from the Rest. The Large man introduced himself as Brom Rutesk and had a very simple arrangement the two best of Geodrin against him winner take all. Anastriana and Bromrik elected themselves as the Cities Champions and stepped forward. Before they even had time to react the imposing man became even large almost twice his size and leaped 40 feet threw the air blocking out the sun, with one hit he made the group understand how dire this fight would be. Anastriana weilding her master of the Arcane Locked the Lumbering Giant of a Man into place and her and Bromrik made quick work of him. After seeing her Beloved Fall the Woman with the Bandit went into a fit of rage and ordered the imposing force to attack. The woman leapt forward into action attacking Bromrik as he was the one who slayed her beloved, before the wave of Bandit could react a Large Savager beast Ran into the wave and started to tear them to shreads. As they were about to get their barrings a Giant Earth Elemental burst from the ground throwing the Bandits all over. With the Helpful distractions Bromrik and Anastriana dealt with Enraged woman who seemed hell bent of ending Bromriks life.        After watching the Carnage ensue and the Army of Bandits decimated the group of Citizens were awe struck and froze in place as a small man a Large Goat appear out of the Dust and bodies. It seemed the Alchemist Zandrin had indeed kept his word of trying to help the citizens of Geodrin, he meant to arrive sooner in the City but it took longer then expected to pack up his small Hovel in the woods. Anastriana with a look of joy on her face readily helped the Old man into the City and Bromrik was tasked  to retrieve Zandrins cart with the Help of Billy. The group of Adventures have made their way back into the town of Geodrin and back into the Tower they call home.......................

After the Adventurers regroup in the Tower they talked of where to go from here. The group talked of how they wondered what would become of the City, Bromrik then informed the Group he Felt Responsible for the fate of the Town of Geodrin. Bromrik asked Lord Rhiden if he would be allowed to help rebuild the Town Bromrik wishes to start to rebuild a chapel and start a system to help all the people. Lord Rhiden told the Group they are all more then welcome to stay in the Town and are a welcome addition.  Zandrin informed them that there was once a Church and led the group to it, he used his abilities to put out the fires around the town and continued towards the Church.  Once they arrived at the Church Zandrin began to walk towards the gravestones that seem to have gone into disarray. After awhile of cleaning and fixing the stones it was Revealed that Zandrins wife and child were buried there. He informed him of his past and why he left the town of Geodrin Long ago. Corrin and Anastriana went into the Church and began to look around, Anastriana found an odd ring upon the Alter, Corrin found a large group of Gems that seemed to have been ground up by a Contraption within the Church.  After they finished examining the Church the Group decided to Head back the Smashed Skull to relax and enjoy their Last night all together for a while.There they met a Fat Tabaxi by the name of Locke who is the weilder of Words and Gibberish. The next morning the group said their goodbyes to those they have grown fond of. Anastriana Informed Lady Cestus to keep an eye on the Children for any development to their magical abilities.  Locke offered his Services to Bromrik to help build the Chapel at a Cost, Bromrik welcomed the help until he Learned that Locke himself was a wielder of the Arcane. After Bromrik refused to pay Locke's high price if the work could not be completed quickly, so Locke took the offer from Anastriana for a free ride back to the City of Kinallen feeling he may find riches within the City. On their boatride back the group began to notice shadows that seemed to be following the boat, as Corrin leaned over the boat and Large Crab like creature Burst out of the Water. The Creature focused on Anastriana and seemed attracted to her magical abilities, after a fight on this small vessel the group laid waste to the assailant from the sea. The Tabaxi Locke heard Rumours of a creature like this, it was called a Chuul and were attracted to magical Items of Immense Power.   They finally made their way back to the Docks of Kinallen, once on Dry land it was found that Locke Removed the Head from the Creature. He informed the group he would be taking the head as payment for helping them on the boat and walked off into the City. Anastriana and Corrin found a wagon and took the Carcass to the Library there they found Lord Charlemange and a new person talking with Curator Elyon. After much back and forth it seems that the rune Lord Charlemange found in the Temple is used as Part of  a Demon pact, Anastriana contemplated the Warning Elyon gave her about the Orb she has and for a moment thinks of Entrusting the Orb with the Old Elf. Lord Charlemange stopped the Interaction with a sly interruption and Gave Anastriana a second thought on her Decision.   The Group is Now walking out of the Library with Curator Elyon standing in his Study watching them Leave.     

The group once again found themselves in the Manor of Lord Charlemanges, they were sitting around enjoying a morning meal when Anastriana and her brother Aeredhel were announced by Baxter. It seems that Aeredhel was sent by their parents to make sure that Anastriana was safe and that her time away from home would be extended by one year if she could prove that she was well taken care of on her travels. He informed the group that one of them could be her Champion and prove to him that his sister was well taken care of. Miradin offered his services to Anastriana and agreed to Aeredhels terms for combat. He informed them that they would meet at a fighting pit down at the Shady Docks in the Early Afternoon and he graciously said his goodbyes and thanked the Lord for his hospitality. The group then set out to the shops preparing for the Party in the following day and for their activities later in the evening. After shopping in the Market Anastriana, Miradin and Corrin made there way down to the Docks to confront Aeredhel. Along the way Corrin seemed to be bothered by something and excused himself from the party disappearing into the Crowd...........   Anastriana and Miradin made it to the Pit and squared off against Aeredhel. Miradin put up a good fight but the overwhelming assault of Anastrianas brother was too much in this small ring even with the AID of Anastriana, even though Miradin did not win the fight he won something even more Valuable the Respect of Anastriana's Older brother.   Miradin had pushed Aredhel further then most and was deemed a worthy protector of his Sister, his tone and attitude changed very quickly knowing that his sister would be safe. He said he farewells and informed his sister that she had extended her time from home by a year since the way he remembered it he was bested. Corrin found his way back to the group looking at little more pale then usual, they all agreed they should get clothes for the next evening and made their way to Lucians (Lord Charlemanges prefered Tailor). He informed them that he had many orders but will do his best to make sure everything was ready for the next evening. Later that evening over dinner the Subject of the Orb in the Temple reemerged, it seems many are interesting in knowing what the artifact is exactly and Anastriana seemed almost unwilling to part with it. After and internal struggle she put the orb away and chose to stay in the Manor and calm herself as the rest of the Group went to find out what Bishop Weldon was up to.   Corrin made his way into the Chapel while Lord Charlemagne and Miradin kept on lookout. While inside it seemed that Corrin would go home empty handed until he found a Secret Passageway inside Bishop Weldons Study. As he ventured down below he found another study filled with Tomes and Journals, as he was about to grab one and Spirit appeared behind him and informed Corrin that he was tasked with making sure that Nothing Left the Room. After talking with the Spirit Corrin learned that who he was talking to was the former Bishop Bishop Waldon and he had bee n enslaved down here and tasked with making sure nothing leaves the room he protects. Corrin agreed to the terms and took his leave, as he pushed further he found another secret passage that lead to a very dark hallway. As he traversed the hallway he felt that his shadow had grown in size, as he looked back a creature of pure shadow attacked him and reached deep within seeming to suck his strength out of him. After some quick thinking and nimble movement he made his way back up to the Chapel and out to his Companions.................................

As Corrin, Charlemange and Miradin Return to the Manor find themselves discussing what Corrin had Found. He described in full what he found under the Chapel. The group discussed what their next course of action would be, they heard a loud thud from Anastrianas Room. Miradin went up to check and Found Anastriana white as a ghost visibly sweating, she informed her she just fell off the bed and would be down shortly. The group continued to converse until she found her way downstairs. The group worrying that Corrin may had been followed checked to see if their were any issues with Corrin, Anastriana used Detect Magic and sensed that some entity had attached itself to Corrin's Shadow. After attacking Corrins Shadow the group was assaulted by a shadowy figure, the Shadow said some odd things and attacked the group. Threw some good team work the group destroyed the Shadow.  After seeing that the Church had some powerful entities underneath the group decided that Bishop Weldon was not a threat to be taken lightly. They prepared the next day for the party that would happen in the evening, the group gathered their clothes and stocked up on items that they would need. As the sunset a carriage with a roaming band of entertainers met them outside Lord Charlemanges Manor. The group preformed and made a grand spectacle of the groups arrival, the performers did their best with the abilities they had but fell a little short. While at the Party our group of Adventurers mingled and talked to the part goers, there they met many interesting people and learned some interesting facts. While at the Party the group learned that Lord Charlemange was gifted 1300gp as a reward for saving the princess. At the lull of the party Locke stood up and began to Enthrall the entire party causing them to dance and be merry. During the big distraction Locke made his way over to the Bishop and Cast Identify without the Bishop knowing. After that the young King made a big announcement, Bishop Weldon due to his help in saving the City of Kinallen from the Plague and his never ceasing mission to make the City a better place had been gifted the Title The Hand of Bordanis with this title his word carries the same weight as that of the King himself. After receiving this Title Bishop Weldon thanked everyone and left the Party. Soon after the group made their way back to  Lord Charlemanges planning their next move.............
