Setup: Jesse as Watcher

Have Jesse watch and record

DAY 1 Peace Ruination: First Half

The Trip Along The Black Shore

17 (learn Yvaldysean over 2 weeks) – enough for chants
18 to perform as Gwinnish crew sailing up black shore

DEUS VULT = Feather – surely the gods must mean for this to happen!

Tarmysian crew ensure shipworthyness = adj 26 (adjust a few things to make boat more presentable) Resume for everyone positions.
Sail so not be caught by shore skimming defense boats of Dunstrand = nat 20 (finally, we can do something!)
= NO ONE SAW THEM = true gwinnish (who else could have gotten up the coast and not be seen? = this is the inspiration from iziah)
Getting out of the boat, in disguise, no accidents.

The Cost to Feather

-1 essence open tomb once king; X2 for failed check – drops her to 2!

Elancil’s Response

Response of the Temples

As the storm cloud gather over the lowlands of Bar-Innis and The Black Shore of Dwindor, mists begin to coalsce all across the landscape. Some are cold and salty, some ware warm and floral. This happened years ago, when the Temple of Apshai and Ashfall rose, and their dead spirits went to war with each other. They spread fear and terror across the nearby lands. Now they do again. Amidst the carnage wrought by raising the Once King, broken apshai rises in his bidding, and its spirits march. In response, Ashfall rises from Calibans Slurry and sends her soldiers marching once again.

Apshai > Immediate ONLY > 1 (spiritus soldiers)
Ashfall > Immediate ONLY > 2 (spiritus soldiers)
= CANCEL EACH OTHER OUT (like they were intended!)

Dragon’s Consideration

DRAGON > DEAL = Wait, and kill once king or witch, depending on who lives
> honor (18) aspects of the “deal” – does not try and split hairs and alter any aspects. She takes flight, soaring 1km above the battle, observing. She makes no attempt to hide, only to dodge the lightning, noxious clouds, and direct wrath of any who take the field. She basks in the happiness of achieving the level of devastation on the humans of the area – once long ago populated by dragons.

House Malor’s consideration

House Malor knew soemthing was brewing regarding the Once King, but not who all the players would be. Watchers would be sent. No direct action taken, other than to inform and safegaurd the duke once gods begin to manifest!

House Malor > Opportunity > stab >

Options: Riverdans relationship, pin feathers, count west river run, count east river run, cerrans grant council
= riverdans relationship = try and take out the sorcery order – falsify evidence to lay some of the blame on them.

Baron of Crestwold Reaction

> 2 wait and see – “if needed we will go”
> Someone needs to Persuade Verel to talk to the Baron to send the bulk of his soldiers immediately (or there will not be a significant opening for assassination)

Baroness of Lilymarch Reaction

Baroness of Lilymarch > ignore and hope for the best; We have done our part in facilitating this, my forces are here to defend that process and can have no higher priority unless i hear from the Duke personally.

Earl of Richfield Reaction

Wait and see

Lowlands / Gallantine academy Reaction

= join battle, dont commit all (54% of acedmy troops and 400 strong lowland militia killed against the spiritus soldiers and physical effects)
LOWLAND LOSSES = 98% of civilians that holed up. 72% of nobility.
Companion Library = strangely survives, including all staff and about 50 locals.

Dunstrand Peace Delegation Reaction

Dunstrand peace delegation > Wait and see (primary side) – send watchers when the gwinnish delegation pull out and sail! House Malor confirms this stance.

>Ceflu Temple / Malek Reaction

+ followers in the area (reaction = 2 on d20); > ???
> depends on how extensive the damage is to braddon bog = Nothing, let it all burn.

Count of West River Run Reaction

; Wait to commit – apparent winner
There are no forces other than an observer and guards in the peace process at Lilymarch

Count of East River Run Reaction

; wait to commit – apparent winner
There are no forces other than an observer and guards in the peace process at Lilymarch

Dark Gods Reaction

The (sword Moon Breaker possessed by once king) > immediate, 1 = commit everything

Light Gods Reaction

(if needed) > WAIT and See
