In which our heroes ...

Orhan 5 Day 23 TE 6065

We plot and scheme. Compass factory? or Kaitaine...

Aliance ships have been seen in Vajar and Itanis. Yup, they've both fallen to the Alliance. Our spies say that Itanis has agreed in principal to joining the Alliance.

We look for scentlessness potions, Haeraan finds a huge stock of them for 1 gold each, after rolling a 66.

Haeraan tests one of the potions, it seems to work just fine. He can't smell a thing. Hmm. Oathar examines the potions carefully. It appears to make you scentless and also takes a away your sense of smell. Probably permanently.

Haerann tracks him down. His name is Slick Dave. He specializes in selling off damaged or defective merhandise. Usually made by apprentices at the college.

We go to scout the compass factory. It is a dark and stormy night. Boom! Rumble!!!

We evade shards. Oathar is injured but willing to press on. We need to get passed the force field.

Haeraan determines it gets regular supply once every five days.

We watch.

Orhan 5 Day 27 TE 6065

Some KalCha come out through the forcefield. Oathar, Alynna, and Imre Leave inside the forcefield when it opens for them. Inside is a giant stone building, probably weird artificial stone. Its like we're standing on an island surrounded by shimmering darkness. Oooh, we're standing in a picket dimension. There's a portal gating sort of thing. Imre and Oathar start memorizing the magical characteristics of the demi-plane while Alynna investigates the roof.

There's a metal door on the roof with no camera. Alynna picks the lock, but finds a security system.

When the KalCha come back. The portal opens, and Oathar and Imre leave out. Alynna gets confused and short doors inside the building. Inside, it's much like MIT. Lot's of long empty institutional cooridors. Alynaa wanders around studying the layout, and looking in doors and the like. Mostly offices. Desks scrolls books, etc. She finds the door that opens into a giant laboratory. She does a very careful reconnasaince of the building. Outside, we discuss the ability of demi-planes to generate promal base and stuff.

The second floor is much like the third floor, with the core of the building being labs of various sorts. Alynna counts people. There are a bunch of offices, many of which are not occupied at the moment. There are about 20-30 people on the second and third floor, most of which are Dyar.

She sneaks down to the first floor (notes that the stairwell continues further down). and finds a bunch of KalCha wandering around. No offices on the first floor. Basement has big metal door with security camera and a large electronic lock. There's also a bunch of power on the door.

As we wait outside, Alynna gets bored inside... Bored bored bored. She goes into the auditorium on the first floor and tries to merge into the floor to come into the basement floor. She goes five or ten feet through the floor and bounces off of a force field (magic). She casts restore manuscript on the blackboard to see what they've been drawing on it. She uses Spell Lore to determines that they are probably doeing some sort of analysis of advanced flow manipulation stuff using compasss to harness essense flows and direct them rather than ride them. She memorizes it.

She also finds a guard station on the first floor with a weapons rack behind it (swords) and a control panel with lights and stuff. As she approaches it, it beeps at her. She starts running. There's beeping and alerts and the like in Dyar. Alynna goes to the Auditorium to hide from the searches. They search it and all the rows and scan and stuff. But they do not notice Alynna.

The sky car arrives. It lands. The Dyar opens up the shield form the inside, and Alynna appears on the radar, but we hear the alert signs from inside. She teleports out and we teleport home...

Whew!
