Kyrik names his duchy Laakh'Pn. Haeraan names his duchy Ysaaris. Oathar waits for futher inspiration... (and an orb of rebirth).

We head to Kaitaine in preparation for our navigator appointment. The seers there talk to Haeraan. Apparently, they've had troubling indications. But we don't really know what to do about them, since teh Allaince wasn't supposed to smite the place for a coupel of months. So Haeraan has some dreams:

1. What caused the divinations to recently go bad in Kaitaine? He standing on the docks in Kaitaine. In the distance, he sees a white line appear on the horizon. It starts growing. It turns out to be a giant wave. It sweeps over the city. As it drains away, the city is still there, but all of the flagpoles have been broken.
2. Progress of the alliances plan against Kaitaine: He sees a child playing with blocks. He's putting the blocks together and building a pyramid. He's got a couple hundred more blocks before he is done.
3. What doom is in store for Itanis? He's standing in some town square and looks out towards the main gate and sees the five of us enter in through the gate.

Of course Imre casts Forget on Haeraan before he can tell anyone about the thrid dream. Then he forgets himself. So lets just say the third dream never happened.

Haeraan discusses the first two dreams with his order seers.

We head to the navigator obelisk and our navigator arrives. Our navigator is a Cypharian. She takes us to the navigator obelisk in Itanis. She leaves.

We ask a merchant and find that the best inn in town is called the Mind's Eye. But Coran Maas recommended the Boar's Head. So we go there. Well, we eventually find it. We get three rooms for the night, pay a gold, and then head to the town square to make sure it's the place we foresaw the Nameless One showing up.

Oathar finds a row of magic item stores. Things such as the tentacle staff. Or the amulet of becoming a giant shark. The Sail of the Northman, which Oathar buys. Striped purple and white with the image of a dragon. It allows the captain to cast Inspirations IV once a day. Oathar buys it at a huge overcost.

Bright and early there is porridge and cheese. Yum. Then we head to the fountain.

Loitering doesn't go well for a couple of us. Oathar attacks the guards, but knows enough about Laia and the amazonian guards to stay out of trouble. Kyrik however has mental defenses up which makes him quite suspicious to the magistrate. So he gets escorted to guard station by what seems to be half the guard force, flirting with the guards all the way in. That decreases the local guard density at the fountain quite a bit. Then there's much searching.

Observation rolls back in the square result in Haeraan and Imre noticing a disturbance up the street near the navigator obelisk. Striding down the middle of the street is a tall blond elf in the middle of four changramai. They all head towards the square. When they arrive in the square, everyone in the square notices that the nameless one has arrived.

Alynna jumps in front of him. "I have need of the great alchemist!" The Nameless One stops. His eyes widen as he looks at Alynna and he takes a sharp breath and says, "We go!" His guards immediately cluster around him. Alynna also says, "Oh by the way, Elor is looking for you." Hes about to say something and then stops himself. He thinks and then says, "We go!" Alynna says, "But the Dark one has escaped! We must reforge the prison!" He and his guards teleport away. The crowd is quite stunned and then guards arrive.

Alynna and Oathar are hustled off by the guards. We get to the magistrate's station. A woman comes out of a closed door and says, "The interrogation room is occupied! Take them to a holding cell." She looks disheveled and a bit mussed.

As Oathar and Alynna are lead to the holding cells, they hear thumping from the interrogation room. But Oathar doesn't think about that.

Kyrik is sent away (with a plea from teh guards to tell them where he's staying.).

Then the interrogation commences. "Tell us everything. We suggest you not resist. It will go easier for you." The magistrate says, "I'm afraid state security is paramount." They scan Oathar and Alynna. They mostly stick to things relating to state security.

Then they consult with their superiors and return to say Alynna and Oathar's presense are requested by the council. Oh look, it is a council of Warlocks. They all look at each other. Then they start the questioning.

"Clearly we were not important enough to be informed that you knew he was going to be here." It goes on in that vein. They're not too appreciative of loremasters showing up and not informing them.

"You are no longer welcome in the city. You will return to Karilon." At this time a loremaster steps out from behind the council and says they will let Karilon deal with us. The local loremaster teleports Alynna and Oathar to Karilon where they shall face the loremaster council tomorrow.

Back on Itanis, Kyrik mentions that Haeraan should probably stay in Oathar's room as his room will be busy. Haeraan and Imre spend the rest fo the day fretting about the dissappearance of Oathar and Alynna.

Kyrik spends the night "contacting" the city guards. He finds out that the miscreants earlier today were loremasters and were taken away by another loremaster. The others return to Selkai.

Haeraan has a dream "What was the Nameless one going to annoucn in Itanis." The nameless one is standing there on the fountain and he's about to speak and the dream dissolves into static.

Imre wakes up Gireg Jan who teleports Haeraan and Imre to Karilon. Gireg goes to check in and see what the deal is.

Kyrik teleports back to Selkai, and reads a note Imre left. Kyrik leaves a note for Imre and goes back to Itanis.

The four of us are dragged before the loremaster council. Alynna recounts the sorry tale of GoofsDale. We didn't check in with loremasters. Nope, not once did we check in with the loremasters. We're spanked for this. They ask after Kyrik and hear he is still in Itanis. Alynna tries to throw herself on the grenade. But they aren't buying it and will discuss our dispositions. For the moment we're grounded.

Meanwhile, back in Itanis, Kyrik is shopping. And getting more informations.

In the evening we are summoned back to the council chambers. The three of us who are loremasters are demoted back to apprentice. We are forced to turn in our rings. We have to train in Karilon until further notice. We'll be assigned a senior loremaster to teach us correct procedures until we are ready to be promoted again. Our assignments to Santa Vallandra are terminated and new loremasters will be assigned there.

After a bit, Gireg Jan comes by and says, "Whew! That wasn't too bad. I hope there's nothing incriminating left behind in Santa Vallandra." Oathar and Imre report directly to Gireg Jan. Alynna reports directly to Tavar Dekdarian.

In the interests of furthering our education, we're going to take an educational field trip to Jaiman. Come find me tomorrow morning.

Kyrik finds an order candidate among the Itanis guard.

That night we drown our sorrows as Kyrik is taken to Karilon and given a slap on the wrist.

Next time: field trip.
