++++ Dinner Party |
Several of us arrive by magical flight and ask where to meet LadyEvandra. Her reception desk is that way. There are even signs. And we hear a famous song of GeldarTheBard. He sounds awesome (33 perform!). We head that way, and find the concert.
PhineasTristillian gathers the party to head to dinner. GeldarTheBard is a little late (really lost in his music).
RyujiHakima's priorities:
LadyEvandra asks us how we got here, what are our powers (politically, that is). She tells us the we have not seen the last of SirKeldanHighheart. She refers to him as a HighHeart. She talks magic with GeldarTheBard. Seems dismissive of the holy casters (seems to be a cultural thing).
LadyEvandra: You said you were going to the capital, to see our council.
She reminds us she told us they were out of session. She casts a silence spell to give us privacy. The council has become shadows of themselves. She is part of a faction that is trying to restore them. She mentions how magic has changed. She talks of how the world is a dragon egg:
TheEggOfTheWorld: A dragon came out of the ether (a celestial dragon). It can swallow suns to keep its fires going. The original mother of all dragons (MotherAo). She hid her egg to protect it. She bled herself a million drops of blood and made them into male dragons and sent them to fight TheHunter. They could not stop him, and MotherAo went to fight him. Their fate is unknown. The males that sought them have never returned. The remaining dragons found that the egg was so powerful that life could be produced from its blood. The hatching of the egg shall be the end of the world. The male dragons decided to live on the surface of the egg. Some became elves, some men, etc. Some stayed dragons, but they went to sleep. Others created the HornOfDragons, which will wake the dragons and bring about the apocalypse.
