Session Seventy-Four Summary (Graveyard of Empires: After the Fall)

Session 74, December 8 2021

Introduction

We continue at 8:00PM on the 29th of Laurilden (00.000.10.02 on the Apocalypse Clock) with the party having finished various tasks while at rest in the Dragon Emperor's hideout beneath Xen'Khel. Mistrust is brewing after the Winter King's servants meet with him privately, though, especially after Ranarth's inept lying. Still, the group is almost ready for their assault on Hdrasta ...

Alician shows up with the whiskey and Khelratha offers to oversee the disbursement and invites Alician to join in. "Until we meet again." since she will not be joining us for the assault on Hdrasta.

Khelratha opens it and asks about a glass, and Alician goes to get cups/glasses and Khelratha takes a big swig. The others notice a dribble of whiskey running down Ronin (the rock).

Lunmold pours some whiskey in a separate pile of dirt to try it for himself.

Alician shows up a smaller crate with a couple more bottles and several glasses.

Alician tries to engage in conversation and asks what we hope to do attacking Hdrasta.

- Revenge for Montoa & Rallion.

Khelratha strokes the braid indicating revenge every time he or others mention revenge.

The others are interested in Khelratha's beard, and he just says "It's what dwarves do."

Velkin tells Druul to play something and Druul tells him "You're no longer my master."

Khelratha tosses a couple of gold coins to Druul and asks him to play the Ballad of Xenilum Khel and sounds a bit chocked up when he requests it.

Druul pushes his hat out and Brendil scrapes some goo into it.

Lungmold takes one bottle and offers some to each of the Winter Elves and Tyrial isn't sure it's safe as he doesn't trust our hosts.

Random growth of flowers when Druul plays and Alician does a double-take with her cup.

"Tha'ts impressive, have you always been able to do that?"

Druul, do what? Doing that. Impressive since magic is gone.

Khelratha can't hum the tune for the ballad and Druul doesn't know it, so it isn't right.

Alician excuses herself. "I don't know what your plans are or when you plan on leaving. I'm sure the emperor will want to talk to you. Since some of his relatives are going with you."

Velkin asks if there's "anything to be aware of?" "Just don't get them killed. He'll talk to you tomorrow. If you need anything before that just ask me or Jardin.

Alician wobbles to her room for the night.

Watches? Ceres & Ajax in the hallway.
