Orhan 4 Day 5 TE 6063

We drive most of them off. Imre cast unpsychosis on Oathar. It doesn't really help though.

We open the apple in the apple tree niche with the appropriate poem, and a little tube pops out. Inside is:

A rod, 8" long made of electrum. An orange gem at one end, with a white gold grip at the other. It's first power is to summon a field of constraint, a spherical prison that can hold one person in it.

Going through the whole place, we get six of these.

We teleport to the mountains. Imre tries to save one of the guys we killed. An army seems to be marching east. It's Sachiel's army. Imre does surgery, Oathar laments and then the rest of the party keep swatch while we wait.

Imre wakes the guy up and he questions. the crazy old guy forgives Oathar and he gets better. Crazy.

His name is Merlaenis. He's a shaman and is the one who has been reforming the Ishru. Jaezel worked with him as the public front, getting access to them, and Merlaenis would channel his spells through him. He had jus tfinished his last spell upon Orius when he cast a spell upon him causing him to forget what he was doing. Then the old guy got adopted by the ataza at the gates. Jaezel has been searching for him for a while now. With a little bit of help, he shoul dbe able to finish reforming Sartarchian and Gadrel. He needs to get close to them and a chance to cast his spell: Dreams of Remorse True!

Now that we've got the Narsilbaen and the artifacts released, things are moving rapidly and doom will soon follow. If we can deal with the Ataza and Taza around the Ishru, he'll deal with them. Satarchian is accompanied by his companion beast, a massive sand lion. SAtarchian is a monk and Gadrel is an illusionist. Beast is a lion fighter.

Alynna studies Merlaenis so she can borrow his channeling skill later. Wow, he's got a lot of skills.

We head out to get Satarchian first. Oathar leaves Tradewind with Merlaenis as a signalling device and we head towards Satarchian's home.

Sadly, Sartarchian's guards are on the ball, so we bail on him and consider how to deal with Gadrel.

We decide to infiltrate Kyrik and Alynna into the harem. Oathar takes them to Gadrel's keep to sell.

Oathar sells his comrades into slavery for 55 gold.

Kyrik is taken to the torture chamber, and Alynna is taken to the pleasure chamber.

After a while, Kyrik watche da bunch of people get tortured and then it's his turn. Gadrel comes in to start torturing. Kyrik starts seducing Gadreel on the torture table. It's incredibly disturbing.

Sadly, Gadrel resists the first attempt. Kyrik talks her into getting some more slaves for an audience so he can perform better. We all try to unmind ourselves.

The second try does work however and Gadrel collapses. This gives Kyrik time to excape and Alynna also does so.

Getting Satarchian is going to be harder. He's a hunter.

We get Sachiel's help to lure Satarchian to his hunting lodge where we will ambush him.

We get to the hunting lodge before Satarchian and merge into the floor. Sadly, his lion comes in first. we jump up and attack the lion.

Satarchian uses his bow on Oathar, and Alynna leap at him with her kung fu (channeling) touch attack. It totally works!!!!

Oathar evacs us.

Woo hoo! All the Ishru are "redeemed". Or at least on the incredibly slow path to redemption.

Next time, the Kurzalaen!
