Session 38

The Sunken Temple (May 1, 2020)

The party sails the Caspian to Scuttle Atoll in search of an Enimat flower. Ignatius is running low on his tonic and the flower is the key ingredient. During the first night of travel the Troll-Kin ring transforms Felix into a troll. Distraught at this change and a perceived lack of support from the party and his deity, Felix attempts to drown himself; however, Ragnar fishes him out of the sea. Felix remains catatonic for much of the remaining trip, even after Ignatius removes the curse and Felix transforms back into a tabaxi.

The party returns to Scuttle Atoll to find most of the island has sunk beneath the water. Diving below the surface they find the temple entrance and re-navigate the traps they faced in Session Two. Along the way they defeat a pack of sahuagin who have occupied the underwater portions of the temple. Ignatius is able to recover 3 Enimat flowers, and the party sets sail for the Nordic Cross.

The crew arrives in Thor in the late Fall, 9 weeks after departing Midhaven. Ragnar quickly departs with Felix, Aryll, and Avery in hopes of gathering the New Haven Navy to retake Midhaven. The party pays Alwyn 200 gp to make 20 vials of tonic and to transplant the remaining Enimat flower into a pot. A few days later the Ebon Hawk arrives in Thor complete with new crew members: Reto, the otterfolk, Sarchuck, the half-orc quartermaster, and Gabbo and Gobbo who have turned into hobgoblins. Lady Yen and Ignatius head towards the Bjornstahd perfumery, but once he reads the rest of Wilhelm’s translated journal Ignatius runs back to the party.
