Game Master = Kelly Berger
We go back to town and heal up. The townsfolk are very happy that we vanquished the spirit. The elves come and resume relations with the humans.
We are resting in the inn when a Sprite comes and perches on Modax’s shoulder. She drops leaves into his hands and they shrivel and turn black. Meena sees they are in the shape of ravens.
The Mayor tells us they are a summons to the Stones of Ravenwood, which is about a 2 day walk.
We rest more and are given provisions. We head out and feel as though we are being watched.
We see 2 large stones in the shape of ravens. They represent the peace of the elves and we feel safe. Drayfala says this place is protected.
While we sleep, we have strange feelings of vertigo, and restlessness. Some of us are still effected after we wake.
When we break camp, a beautiful elven woman comes into camp and spreads leaves on the grounds, she then fades into the fog. The leave begin to stir. They blow away.
We gather some of the leaves and realize they have words on them but they are jumbled. They begin to wither in our hands. We lay them back on the ground.
A hot wind and moaning sound comes from the forest. The wind starts to blow all the leaves away.
Drafala hears laughter from the forest from between the Ravenstone. He walks between the stones and vanishes.
The rest of the party follows Drafala between the Ravenstones. We are met with a wall of thorns in a dark world. The stars are above. We see a clearing and a figure comes towards us. It says “Who Goes there. I will kill you”.
Drayfala hears our exchange. He casts light, but nothing happens. He speaks in Sylvan. “It is Drayfala, this is a magical force and we can only speak to each other in Sylvan”
As we get closer, the creature gets smaller and we realize its Drayfala. He and Meena can speak Sylvan. Drayfala tries to speak Elvish to Meena. She screams in agony and takes psychic damage. The rest of the party cannot understand us. We will try and communicate with signs.
