Session 008 - Conquest and the White Eye

The party entered Redmark's command vault and found the Redmaw Tyrant trying to break a red-gold gemstone fragment out of a damaged War Altar. While the altar pulled combatants toward itself, the party defeated the warlord and recovered its Horn of Blasting.

After a quick search produced 50 gp, the party freed the fragment. The vault began to collapse, and the group escaped through an eastern drainage route.

Back at Moongleam Tower, Elaris accepted the Redmark fragment. He described the Coiled Coin as possession becoming captivity and the Redmark relic as force becoming conquest. The party reached level 5 and spent three days recovering.

The three Resonant Remnants recovered around Redmark became a +1 Moon Sickle, an Adamantine Plate, and a +1 Longsword. The party also purchased Bracers of Archery and a second Adamantine Plate. Kal and Leonidus each received one plate, Rhaegar received the bracers, Wazeau received the sickle, and Aiaia received the longsword. Kal also took responsibility for a new containment case.

Tovin drove the party to Waymark Crossing, where empty ore carts, injured travelers, and fleeing townsfolk showed that the Farstep Works crisis had worsened. The party arrived during a raid by attackers marked with ash-white paint around one eye.

The party saved the Lower Road guards and townsfolk, recovered the containment case after the raiders tried to steal it, and left one unconscious captive secured with Tovin. They then chose to defend the Supply Shed, where raiders were preparing oil, pitch, smoke, and demolition materials for the road to the mine.

The Horn of Blasting survived its first use. It exploded on the second, badly injuring its user and destroying itself, but the party still won the fight and saved the supplies.
