Personal Resources
treasure: Queen Meliai's Ensemble, gifted to her dear friend Melbirran (the Glasir Norn) for five hundred years of honored duty: Fey Flute (level 18 uncommon, orchid-like and shaped of Glasir's own splinters), Canaith Mandolin (level 17 uncommon, shaped from Glasir's own splinters), Drum of Panic (level 13 uncommon, stretched hides over bone fragments, tribal carvings inked in blood), Vistani Violin (level 12 uncommon, rich red wood polished many times over edged in gold)
... and the Seed of War (level 15 uncommon, a dark acorn fallen beside the gray acorn, summoning forth an ironbark likeness of the Archdruid to fight)
coin: 22pp, 192 gp, 73 sp, 70 cp + 2 green jacinth gems (5000 gp each)
loot: You find four large harps, each at least half as tall as an average man and beautifully designed...
The first has been made from a gorgeously carved green stone and bursts with detail. Gold strings run down from the upper arch of the harp, and worked into the surface of the instrument are images and designs of spring. The most prominent is a whimsical elfin sidhe maiden with short, spiky hair and a playful expression. [Spring Harp, green marble with gold strings; 7,500 gp]
The second harp has been formed from a dark, almost rose-colored, golden metal which gleams brightly. This instrument has intricate detail and design as do the others, save that this one is carved with icons of summer and fire. It has bronze strings, and the image of a beautiful flame-haired sidhe embossed upon it. She has a wickedly-amused expression and her eyes seem to follow you everywhere. [Summer Harp, gold with bronze strings; 7,500 gp]
The third instrument has been carved with a master sculptor’s eye for detail and is made from a dark, brownish-red stone. This instrument has a somber look to it and seems much more under stated, both in design and creation. The strings have a copper color to them as they run down from the upper arch. This harp has the image of a woman carved upon it, rather stern and unforgiving with a mass of leaf-strewn curly hair. [Autumn Harp, marble with copper strings; 7,500 gp]
The last harp is made from a silvery white material. The strings are silver and tiny icicles of crystal hang down from the edges. Carved into the surface of the instrument is the image of a sidhe with a cold, callous expression and a flow of long white hair. [Winter Harp, mithral with silver strings; 7,500 gp]
... and the Tyvisir acorn (Narra)
Afflictions
all diseases and damage cured
New NPCs
Broodmother (dead): The revolting Voidborn entity 'Mommy' possessed powerful psionics and polluted not only mind but vision, a bloated, gray giantess of teats, jaws and eyestalks. She was mother to a writhing mass of deformed Yith brood, crosses between maggots and children, dragging slimy, umbilical tails, mewling for the party to join them in their mother's rotting, flabby folds. Rogar, Auro, Narra and Raina managed to stave off her advances long enough for Tyvis and Arinew to complete their rejuvenating ritual. In the resulting explosion of sacred, life-giving force, she was utterly erased. No one mourned her passing.
Nidhogg Nagar (dead): The cancerous amalgam of tumors, bile, rotted woods, feelers, diseases and offal that had merged with Glasir, a vast aberration pervading Nastrond. In the final moments of Glasir's rebirth, the party saw Nidhogg's true nature, a minute cilia of the Elder Thing, the Absolute Doom of All, Chrysaor Abhorrent. Despite the overwhelming menace and the idea this victory was over the equivalent of an arm hair on the being older than gods, there was an undeniable sense of hope and righteousness in spitting in its elder eye.
Completed Quests
Nidhogg Nagar (major): Nastrond is no more, Glasir healed, and the black, rubbery remnant of Nidhogg's head claimed by the Prince of Silverwood as testament to the legendary events that occurred at the heart of the Silver Yew. This evidence, and the health of the tree, will see a prince finally accepted by his people, perhaps ready to fight for their well being and that of the wider Wild.
Lost Party (minor): Though battered, crippled and plagued with visions not soon to be forgotten, the four hapless fey who entered Nastrond with grand designs to defeat Nidhogg have been rescued.
Next Session
103a: It is a time of mourning and reflection, but also a time of action, as the Saviors return to Eglantine heroes. With the support of the eclectic green fey, supplies and services can be had, perhaps a moment's rest as well, in anticipation of war with Autumn.
