Game notes 10/31

10/31/2001

We spoke with Captain Aiger Ghaelfin through the grave candles. He advised that Delvehaven was sealed due to a civil war and they sealed it with powerful guards and wards to protect it. The cache was confirmed as Coriana would know the location and was expected to return at a later time to retake Delv. Coriana was killed and burned and her ashes are being held by the Sisters of Eisith.

We received a bouquet of flowers from Chammady Drovenge. As referenced from the previous notes Chammady is a rep for the council of thieves and was related to the nightmares being stolen. The note indicated she was watching us and bet on us to make some cash.

We decided to return to the inn and rest. At the inn we met several folk. Elwell Lymer is a "scary lookin guy." He seems to give off both evil/good outsider. He scavenges the ruins for lost valuables. We also met two workers. They have all recently been questioned about us by "the guild in the ruins." One of the workers mentions that a lot of bodies have been found up near the massacre house (the location of the sisters.)

We hired a worker to take us north of the Massacrehouse. He identified that there is undead in the ruins. We came upon 6 large lumbering undead which appear to be under someone's control. These brutes were quick on their feet and exploded in negative energy when they died.

Massacre house is a hexagonal building. Heavy stone walls with doors fitted with a narrow sliding window. The building was once a crematorium. Sisters of Eisith believe through the protection of their faith that they could become Erinyes in their future. It is said that nobody has ever entered the monastery uninvited and survived. The majority of what we encounter will not be members of the sisterhood and there are at least three other organizations within the ruins that are opponents of the monastery.

xp: 1200 (Total: 38,085.)

We approached one of two wagons heading in the direction of the monastery. The wagon was half a dozen or so gnomes. The leader is Gurbo Flintwhistle who mentiones they've recently traded a dozen urns from an old building in the ruins (to the sisters.) He offers to hide two of us in the wagon and the rest are left to their own devices to sneak in. The sisters are monks and can be ID'd by their blood red silk habbits and their bladed scarves. They also use infernal throwing stars some of which have a bladed claw. The entry is located straight into the crematorium. There's a central stairway leading down or a door from the side for entry. A large chamber at the bottom of the stairs that he has never been in (later determined to be the library.) One of the traders they worked with had glowing red eyes (Possibly scary guy?) Sometimes the sisterhood resolves issues within the ruins. The gnomes provided bull's strength to all four party members, invis to white, and expeditious retreat to the group.

Upon entering the monastery we encountered one of the sisters and a large fire elemental (in the furnace.) Fenris tore the sister to pieces and the elemental went back into the furnace to leave us alone.

Proceeding on we came to the top of the stair case where we defeated two more of the sisters. The central stair leads down some 80' to the library of urns. Thousands of urns adorn the shelves in this area. We came across the final 3 sisters as well as an Erinye. The erinye eventually teleported away while two of the monks were killed. The final monk was left alive to show us where the urn for Coriana is located.
