De’Vosa – had a vision of evil and was instructed to be here (a road near a place called Athlapoole) in order to deal with it. Delyth cam seeking a similar draw. They met on the road, their gods leading them. For 2 hours, they sat and talked, getting to know each other. De’Vosa has a strange sense that Delyth is an emptiness, a void that is superficial. De’Vosa says nothing, but fears death is nearby.
10/2022 – Riverdan of Bondeu
Father Derek, Priest of Ikribu, pulls De’Vosa aside. He is old and says he is in his final days. He oversaw his penance before – “it is all I am good for these days… hells, its all they let me do and you were the first in years”. He is pleased to see him return unphased and without taint. “The gods, though, have a plan. Your countenance is like a strong bronze blade, or the boss of an ancient shield – surely you are favored by Whelm. Though others may find your divine heritage off-putting, I find comfort in it as we share an old warrior’s spirit. The gods of light have sent me a vision that you will be facing an ancient ailment, not an evil but an ancient will which will try to influence you and your companions. The spirit of something that should long ago been laid to rest…” He says to take his Holy Symbol, use it instead of his own if he needs to hold at bay angry spirits of the dead. Giving it to you is like a weight off his back, he relaxes visibly. He shakes your hand, takes a deep breathe and smiles. “Go now, with the blessings of Whelm. It is time for me to lay my shield down now…”
Holy Symbol of Whelm; +2 on DC Wisdom saves for turning undead and for its wielder to resist possession. It has 2 charges of Bless before it crumbles to dust, that can be used by any Lightbringer.
