Session 20

Penelope & the Storm Giant (February 8th, 2019)

The party recovered loot from Black Agatha’s temple, including coins, rings, and herbs. Tryx grabbed Penelope and yelled at her about his crest on her luggage. She blasted him with cold magic, and hid in the corner before Ignatius eventually calmed her down with a tale. Tryx explained to the party that the intertwined silver rings was his family crest passed down to him by his father. When his father betrayed their faith and married another woman, Tryx had left his home in Naldum. Balor explained that he had seen this same symbol on Remington Farnsworth’s chain.

Altair watched over Penelope while the other party members descended underwater to the ruined temple. After a wild shape into a shark, a few hours of searching, and a close encounter with a storm giant, the party recovered the fourth idol: a silver shark. Before leaving the island, the party asked the hag’s cauldron to see Antioch/Wilhelm, and were shown Alwyn the firbolg boarding a small vessel out of New Haven Harbour. When the party asked the cauldron to show where Balor was from it showed open water. When asked to show someone else from where Balor was from the cauldron flashed an image of Petronella. Tryx attempted to use magic to charm Penelope, but she resisted, and became hostile towards him.

Over the next four days the party made their way back to the Ebon Hawk. The crew had built defenses on the shore and the repairs had been completed on the ship. The crew also acquired blue and red uniforms from a wrecked ship. When the four idols were put together they generated a golden compass needle that pointed North West. After more than a week without his tonic Ignatius developed a tremor, and the crew agreed that his best chance for survival was to get to the Keeper’s shop in the Bay of Marauders, three weeks away.
