Downtime[edit source]

• Rollo cultivated a relationship with the Moon Druid Athil Mistwater. For now the relationship is neutral. He also failed to find proper sustenance in the forest, and ended up having to spend a night at an inn to gather his strength.
• Wezhul received an "invitation" to a ball from his father via a Memory Crystal, and later attended. He also spend some time freshing up on various necromantic texts.
• Gral spend a bit of time spreading word in the goblin network about the formation of The Embers, and also did some alchemy work, creating and selling Journeybread, earning 6 gp.
• Aegir was searching for an adventuring group, and found Wezhul to sign up with The Embers.

Nightfall Duty[edit source]

The Embers were called to nightfall duty, and teamed up with a group consisting of the Grand Mage Donal Silvermane, the Moon Druid Mariel Blackbough, the Monster Guard Maya and her sidekick troll Tom, as well as a beastman scout and a female fighter.

They were assigned to the border between the Green Remnant and Willowfield, and to begin Donal, Tom and the other heavy hitters made easy work of all Nightmare Fallen that approached.

Then Donal and most of the heavy hitters were called away to defend a Matrix Pylon under attack by The Surrendered, leaving only Maya, Tom and some magical items to aid in the defense.

The defense went pretty well, until the end of the mission. A monster warped by The Nightmare attacked, and while that fight was under way, Maya was suddenly attacked with a sleep spell by a distant spellcaster, before two assassins appeared and tried to murder her. They were mostly halted by a gravely injured Agir, and then dispatched by a Lightning Bolt from Rollo. They still managed to stab the unconscious Maya, and the group shortly found out that the daggers had been poisoned. Rollo managed to contain the poison, and the group headed back towards The City. Soon Donal and his companions caught up, and Donal teleported Maya to medical aid. Mariel remained, and Rollo had apparently made some kind of impression in what little interactions they have had.
