[Spoiler omitted]Lefrik Olegson (alias of Ridge)2020-07-24T19:37:55ZRe: Forums: Play-by-Post: DM Bigrin's Second DarknessDM Bigrin (alias of bigrin42)https://paizo.com/campaigns/DMBigrinsSecondDarkness/gameplay&page=182#90562020-07-25T21:23:17Z2020-07-24T01:34:55Z<p>The majority decision was to head back to Riddleport, a place you called home, but hadn't seen in months. Hands clasped in a circle, Anklebiter read from the scroll and the world around you warped slightly. A blink later and you stood in the streets outside of the Golden Goblin. Passersby stared open-mouthed at your sudden appearance, as much from the black blood staining your clothes and armor as for your sudden appearance. Then, a booming voice rang out from the doorway of the Golden Goblin.</p>
<p><b>"Welcome back, mighty heroes! Did you have something to do with the exploding star in the sky two days ago? I bet you did. Please, come take your rest in the Goblin. We'll be able to double the business while you're back with us again. People will fall over themselves to say they were in the room with the Riddlepoint Heroes!"</b></p>
<p>Basker Feldin stood in the doorway, a beaming smile on his face. He welcomed you in and escorted you up to your rooms, which he said were always ready for your return. He invited you to look over the Goblin's books at your leisure, assuring you that he had made a good profit while you were away. He begged for your story, and after everyone had had a bath and something to eat, you sat down with him and relayed all that had happened over the year and more that you were away. </p>
<p>Basker Feldin was a good listener, gasping and making oooh sounds in all the right places. as you relayed a year and a half's worth of stories - that felt closer to 8 years to you - it was difficult to imagine all that had come into your lives since you first stepped into this place. Then, the Goblin had seemed filled with all manner of vice and not a little evil, but you had stared evil in the face more times than you could count. Evil that made Saul Vancaskerin look like a fairy princess from a storybook.</p>
<p>•</p>
<p>The days passed swiftly in Riddleport, with people clamoring to hear your tales, or filled with rest - and in Lefrik's case, debauchery. After 17 months on the road, it felt good to relax for a bit, but there were things on everyone's mind. Where was the Skyfall information going to turn up next? What did the marilith mean by "next time you meet"? What of the dark elves' plans to raid the surface world? These questions and more plagued you as you sought to rest and recover in your home town.</p>
<p>A week after your arrival in Riddleport, an elven messenger appeared in the Goblin, asking to see the Heroes of Kyonin. Assuming she meant you, Basker gathered you all and ushered you into a private audience with the elven lady. She presented you with a scroll, written in Queen Telandia's own hand, proclaiming you the aforementioned Heroes, and asking for you to join her in her capital for a proper thank you ceremony. The messenger stated that she was capable of transporting you back to the Queen at your convenience, and would then transport you again to wherever you wished to go.</p>
<p>When you had agreed and made ready, she cast her own spell, and you were in the capital of the Elven Kingdom once more. This time your reception could not be more different than your last visit. Everyone recognized you on sight, exclaiming loudly that "the Heroes are here!" and "Huzzah, long live the Heroes of Kyonin!". </p>
<p>When you arrived before the Queen in her audience chamber, she made special point to praise your actions to her nobles, profess teh elven nation's gratitude, and offer treasures beyond imagining from the Emerald Library. Later, in private, she told you of the difficulties of running the kingdom with a broken and short-handed Council. She offered each of you a position on her new Council, as she could think of no one better suited for the task.</p>
<p>Your fortunes made, your future wealth assured, and a place on the advisory council for one of the most powerful nations in the world before you, it seemed the perfect ending to a long a grueling story. Of course, there were rumors of a new Winter Council being formed of the most conservative of the elven nobles, one hidden in secrecy. And there was the fear that your actions in the Darklands may stir the entire dark elf city of Zirnakaynin to war against the surface. Not to mention the Dark Fate - that most secret of elven secret that causes embittered power hungry elves to transform into their hated dark kindred. The secret that most of the elven nation doesn't even know themselves. But these were all worries for another day. Stories that may yet never need be told. Today is a day for victory, so sup well on it, heroes, for you have saved the entire world by your actions!</p>
<p>THE END</p>The majority decision was to head back to Riddleport, a place you called home, but hadn't seen in months. Hands clasped in a circle, Anklebiter read from the scroll and the world around you warped slightly. A blink later and you stood in the streets outside of the Golden Goblin.
