Brian:

know where your token is? You start this session off with whatever you decide to do next.

wes:	my character has now decided that elf god who's name i unspellable has lost favor in the order of lood

wes:	so, he decides to go to local priest to try and gain favor with corlon lorthian

Devdan Vaxidor:

Soveliss, i belief the order of blood has angered out god

Brian:

Does it happen to be the guy from before, or are you finding a different church?

Devdan Vaxidor:

i will seek out our god's wisdom to cerrect this

Brian:

like, a big important one, one who knew you as a kid...

wes:	i want a priest who thinks he/she speaks directly for corlon lorthian

Brian:

He's also the head of the church of Corelon Lorethian

wes:	yeah but you make it so if i want to do something cool i have to agree with hitlet

wes:	it's been one day since my last encounter with this cleric

Brian:

You arrive at the only time you know the man would be in church for sure: right before services.

Cleric:

It is far less important than that you are here. Sit.

Brian:

After a brief wiping the serman begins. You have heard the preaching of a clergyman many times in your young life, and this time isn't much different, although recent events make you pay attention to the words more than normal.

Cleric:

Alright, but enough of me yammering on, right? Let's eat.

Cleric:

We are a tight-nit family here. On Moondays we normally get someone to prepare a feast.

Brian:

You end up only walking across the street to the church-goers house, where much dining is had, after a prayer or two of course.

Brian:

Even a human who is related to sombody somehow is joining in.

Cleric:

So tell me, where in the city do you spend most of your time?

Brian:

He has made a point to sit accross from you. There are no speeches going on now.

Devdan Vaxidor:

I have tried to spend my time in the order of blood

Devdan Vaxidor:

i feel that our god has....decided that isn't the path for my life

Devdan Vaxidor:

As i was completing a mission for the order of blood, a silver winged eagle attacked me. I'm not the most devout follower of our God, but surely not one worthy of her scorn. I think she must find disfavor for the order i was serving

Cleric:

How long have you been in the Order? My name's Aurest, by the way.

Devdan Vaxidor:

Aurest, I had just joined the order when a holy beast of our godess attacked me

Aurest:

It sounds to me like you don't fully understand why.

Devdan Vaxidor:

that....yes, i don't know why my godess felt to attack me, but i know i've never efiled her or opposed her. i know that the new order must be why she opposed me

Devdan Vaxidor:

Aurest, i don't know about this order. But i know that i can be a true champion of our goddess

Devdan Vaxidor:

I know that while i'm not the "ideal elf" i've done nothing to offend our goddess so much that she would attack me

Aurest:

The church often sends men down to the south to spread the word to the wood-folk. Unfortunitely, more rough bands still exist, and we aren't always safe down there. Most of the time with someone like you I would suggest quiet prayer to ease your mind, but you strike me as a man of action.

Aurest:

You escort me on my next trip. I will provide the provisions you need, and a chance to see the world our lord has made.

Devdan Vaxidor:

i am a man who can make quiet prayer. but i know action will bring me closer to my goddess

Devdan Vaxidor:

my goal....is to provide elves with a secure future

Devdan Vaxidor:

not one that relies on "slaves" and "lesser races:

Devdan Vaxidor:

we can be supperior without fostering hatred

Aurest:

How noble. We will have much to talk about on our trek.

Aurest:

But for now, enjoy the evening, and the kindness of your fellows.

Devdan Vaxidor:

thank you my lord. many elves think our superiority is "assured:

Brian:

You spend several weeks preaching to the wood-landers, often stopping to cure a few folks here and there.

Brian:

The humans don't seem as resentful as you would have expected, but don't love the sermans like your kind do.

Brian:

On this particular day, Aurest is speaking in public and gathering a small crowd, which includes a priest of Palor, the old god of the south.

Brian:

When he sees you a bit behind Aurest, he quickly slinks off...

Brian:

You get a few suspicious eyes, but nobody does anything provocative.

Brian:

you don't need to aknowlege everything. I'm just narrorating

Aurest:

I think we should try to find the local church of Palor around here and try to talk to the elders. Avoiding religious rifts are always a good thing, right?

Aurest:

May we come in? I had hoped we could pray together.

Priest of Palor:

I don't know how you do it in the city, but we don't normally allow arms and armor in temples, and I would prefer you come inside alone anyway.

Aurest:

Agreed. Have the night off. Mingle with the townsfolk; I'm sure you'll learn a thing or two...

Brian:

Some tables and such exist, but most folks are at the bar itself. The Inkeep nods your way when he sees you walk in.

Human 30:

Surely you...don't think you're better than me...at...

Human 30:

There's only one thing that means strength. And elves...elves don't got em.

Brian:

The elf at the bar eyes you with interest, but the drunk you were talking to stands up and growls. Roll init.

Brian:

it provokes at this range, but he is drunk. And you don't really know.

Brian:

Two of the men in the corner draw swords, while one draws a bow.

Brian:

That guy is on the other side of an angry pesant with a blade, but you are correct he's the dieing one.

Devdan Vaxidor:

HIT ME YOU FOOL, I ONLY WANT TO ESCAPE, I DON'T WANT TO KILL YOUR ALLIES! IF YOU WON't SAVE THEM I WIL

Human 24:

Damn elf thinks he can just kill whoever he wants!

Brian:

As you step out into the village proper, you see shambling, half-rotted corpes stumbling about.

Brian:

Note that Zombies haven't been seen in decades. Make a wisdom check to even know about these things

Devdan Vaxidor:

STENGTH IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN YOU THINK!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Brian:

One pops his head out, and seems to debate doing something.

Brian:

Three humans run out of the inn, and go the other way around the building

Brian:

You hear some shrieking from the building you saw that zombie go inside.

Brian:

you can go for sweet sweet crit if you really want...

Brian:

You hear fighting on the other side of the building you are next to, but you can't see what's going on.

Brian:

You haven't seen any soldiers here yet. East would just be the inn

Brian:

You see one more zombie to the north-east, and it's your turn again.

wesley:

how do i make a point i stop at befor emoving onward?

Brian:

I am going to say the guy had precise shot and be nice.

Brian:

You burst into the church, and there is one dead zombie on the ground and the two clerics are pointing staves at each other.

Brian:

Suddenly, you observe the other priest dashing out the door

Aurest:

Are there any more of these creatures? Where are they?

Brian:

A couple villagers poke their heads out of the hovels they were hiding in.

Brian:

You observe the majority of the town doesn't seem overrun...

Brian:

In fact, I will tell you now that there weren't many extra zombies. They only seemed to attack from that corner, and do not seem organized.

Aurest:

Well the town priest thinks they were sent to assasinate him. He's a paranoid fellow...

Aurest:

I advise we do our duty as elves and stay the night in the town square. You hear anything alert me.

Brian:

The night passes in silence. Nobody dares leave wherever they holed up, but you can still sense the horror, and can hear children crying from time to time.

Brian:

Eventually, dawn comes, and the villagers come shambling out to the town square.

Aurest:

I don't know, but we are here to protect you as long as needed.

Inkeep:

You sliced a drunk man through the chest, and then killed a completely different one where he stood.

Old Woman:

Elves just come down here and think they can get away with anything!

Inkeep:

Why else would they come on the night of your arrival?

Human 29:

I heard that he left a whole house to die while he went after Gremit.

Brian:

Human 31 almost says something, but a few other general insults by the crowd cut him off.

Aurest:

There's no point trying to debate a mob. I think we need to go...

Devdan Vaxidor:

they must....they must be doing something to anger the goddess

Aurest:

Apparently, you're causing diplomatic nightmares, that's what.

Aurest:

Please, tell me the truth: were you in a bar fight last night?

Devdan Vaxidor:

and i gave his allies the chance to rescue him

Aurest:

Like anyone concerned for thier life would, Devdan. Don't you see what this looks like?

Aurest:

A big tough city elf walks into town and bullys whoever he feels like, right when everyone's paranoid the church of Palor is being hunted down?

Aurest:

We can't fix that now. What we can do is find out where these beasts came from.

Aurest:

We haven't seen summonings of the undead since the church of Nerull was banished.

Aurest:

Well I think that is our new quest. But this time, we play it safe. I don't want to start a rebellion.

Brian:

And so you wander the countryside, in search of more clues to this monstrosity. Months, then a year pass, and while you find more undead, you never get closer to the truth. And all the while, Aurest never trusts you as he did before. Never lets you out of his sight.
