it's a long way to Regalport...

Ok, we here at the Annandale Gaming blog are SO far behind that we are going to try and sum up a couple of sessions as quickly as possible.

To wit;

1. Statues rescued.
2. Second ship found and attacked.
3. Elf ninjas.

Clearly, bullet points are not the way to do this. The people responsible for trying bullet points have been dealt with.*

The Spear of Dawn took on some crewmen who surrendered from the ships they overtook, since they legitimately did not know they were working for Daask or what they were doing. Supplies and stores were also taken aboard.

Unfortunately, somewhere among those innocent crewmen and/or the stores was the "failsafe" plan for the statues; a Thuranni assassin team, led by a Thuranni Shadow Hunter.

While the party was scattered all over the ship, gambling, sleeping, watching the sea, on separate decks. Adan was, naturally, the first to notice anything was wrong when, going below decks, he found an airman lying in his hammock with his throat slit.

Darkened, dangerous, shadowy combat ensued. Our heroes were victorious, naturally. One junior member of the team was captured and interrogated; the leader swallowed supremely lethal poison before Adan could make good on plans to capture him as well.

Lorrister was furious; two of his airmen were dead. The Thuranni wizardess the party captured knew little but explained they had snuck aboard the ship as a failsafe to attempt to disable the ship if possible, destroy the statues if not. Given that she had, technically, signed the Articles of Service (see below) she was subject to Lorrister's justice. Adan got everything he believed possible out of her, and so she was turned over to the Prince.

She was hung off the bow of the ship. After sufficient time had passed, Lorrister simply cut the rope.






*By which we mean thrown off an airship off the coast of Argonessen with a week's supply of iron rations, two potions of healing, a short sword, a bedroll, a shortbow, and 1 arrow of dragonslaying, color randomized. As stated before, we do not mess around here at the Annandale Gaming Blog.
