Eidi barely manages to register everything that is happening in the chaos of combat, his images saving him from becoming dragon grub, at least for now.

Brazzemal looks impressive, but after witnessing the legions of Kyuss, with their overworms and wormcallers and having been reborn, there is only a limited reaction of impression you can take from a dragon like this "Tsk!"

Ref+BoF+holy aura+prayer DC 36: 1d20 + 9 + 2 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 9 + 2 + 1 + 1 = 20
Before he can react, the half-elf is taken in between Mortimer and the fiery dragon. He clenches his teeth as he has no hope to escape the flames, but is surprised as Ascaria's protections absorb most of the burns.

"These ones are pretty hungry. Sorry to leave you here Mortimer" not wanting to remain in the front of the battle for more time, Eidi starts casting a spell.
Concentration DC 21: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (4) + 18 = 22
A bit pressed, he rises new defenses against fire with a communal resist energy touching himself, then Mortimer, then profiting haste speed to also reach Ascaria.
resist fire 30 for 50 min (Mortimer, Eidi and Ascaria)

The spell carries some healing grace, closing some scratches on Mortimer.
+3 hp

The movement gives a chance for the blue blue to attack, but that seems a better prospect than standing in the front.

Fort+prayer+holy aura DC 24: 1d20 + 16 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 16 + 1 + 1 = 27
Eidi contemplates with hope how Mortimer skillfully downs one of the dragons with his bare fist, only to see the giants throwing crawlers at him "Eh! Ouch! No! We are here to help!"

Spellcraft DC 22: 1d20 + 29 ⇒ (15) + 29 = 44
"An insanity spell... That dragon is dangerously wily in addition to huge..." Eidi tenses seeing the danger posed by the red. With all the dragons too far for most of his magics, the elder takes from his pouch a rhubarb leaf and an adder's stomach, as well as a small dart he uses to point to the red. A small blob of acid emerges from the dart flying long long over the red.

Trying to force some concentration checks if he keeps casting

He then continues haste moving forward, where he is at more risk but he might get the dragons at range.

BoF +2
Eidi moves in haste forward, and seeing the group having trouble to reach the fight, he looks back at Mortimer "Care to have a ride?" casting telekinetic charge to propel forward the giant, moving him to the back of the blue-blue dragon.
Mortimer has an extra attack with a +2 (red cross in map)

With the dragons still too far away for most of his better spells, Eidi just points at the closest blue to the north and throws at him some force magic "Excuse us if we join the party too late"

5 damage will be transferred to Ascaria and the rest healed by particulate form

"Especially when they're given a mighty purpose"

Eidi stretches his eyes "What ill intended purpose you have given them?"

Spellcraft: 1d20 + 29 ⇒ (17) + 29 = 46

"Good Ascaria, let's find what those kind looking giants are telling to the enraged blues" the bald half-elf does not think on it twice, he starts running in the air at hasted speed.

"Oh! Pardon me... apparently there are some things my head insists to erase from memory, hehe" Eidi smiles but with not a very pleased facial expression.

K. local DC 13: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (9) + 22 = 31

"Hum... spriggan... you joyless gnomes really know to grow up" the half-elf looks to secure his footing on the other bastion, keeping the distances for now "Your people is not known to be kind at all, but rather full of malice. Of course, you also seem more talkative than most of them..."

Be with me my friends, know those spriggans are usually of chaotic and evil nature, so let's not trust this one easily. They have powers to Flare, Scare, and Shatter as well as the enlarging we witnessed. the elder transmits through the telepathic bond.

Gazzilfek's story won over his curiosity, and he awaits quite for more, hearing for what Ascaria and the others might decide on the worth of the words.

Eidi turns towards the source of the interruption and smiles with gratitude "Oh, thanks. We have indeed a tale to make by stopping this army of dragons. But if you tell us... who are you... we might have a short moment for you."

The half-elf offers while raising in the air to get closer "Would you happen to know Prince Zeech?"

Eidi looks at the little fun pointed by Ascaria and smiles "Oh, I am preserving a teleport for the case of emergency"

"But maybe we can air walk while we are still accelerated" the half-elf observes the fine bows and vows to Solrisa smiling "Very nice pick indeed. The dragons know"

Great banner for the roll20 adventure xD

Eidi raises his staff futilely attempting to stop the dragon's snap. A pity Ascaria's holy aura does not close forever those blueish eyes for his boldness.

Ref+haste+holy aura DC 22: 1d20 + 9 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 9 + 1 + 1 = 31
With a wild jump back, unexpected for such an elder, the half-elf avoids the heavy burden of the falling dragon.

"Oh! Uff! Such a violent reaction for just a bit of coolness..." the particulates quickly start to heal the half-elven body. The half-elf runs back in the air towards the group protection, preferring the opportunity snaps to the full blunt attacks of two dragons.

When he is back in the north, he takes a drop of sweat from his forefront and uses it as a component to unleash a ray of black energy at the less injured dragon.

Eidi uses a fast protective magic to avoid part of the first breath, but takes the blunt of the second "Ah, yeah, I wanted to warn you, if you have not Tres Sangres Cake to offer, better prepare for some acid!" the half-elf tries to explain the rest he knows whenever he can.

"We need to scatter more" Eidi decides, as he hastened makes it to the air and walks to the other tower in the south, all while saying arcane works of magic that end with a cone of freezing coldness.

Eidi poked around with his staff "Hum. Hum. Sorry, that astral ride was through a bit convoluted wormhole. Where were we?" Eidi looks up at the new perspective of the sky and sees the creatures approaching "Oh! Yes! Green dragons! Lawful Evil Lizards of Unusual Size, they spew Acid in Ice-cream Cones, no hum, just cones."

"They are the more scholastic of the chromatic ones, or so stated Drakanav Codex on is 17th Chapter. At least the metallic ones attempted to redeem them in a millennia plan, but did not work as much it would seem..." then picking a piece of licorice root from his belt, Eidi casts haste to help the party overcome the large number of dragons "Try not to strike them in the heads, my friends. We promised the giants to present them to their king as a sign of good friendship."

No strong sense of time remaining though!

Eidi sorrows listening to Marigold "It has indeed been a dark time. Many has been lost, but much more could had been lost if not for your intervention."

The half-elf smiles to JJ "Indeed those apes were grim, but nothing in comparison to what lies deep in the jungle north of Kingfisher's Hollow..." he looks at Celeste who slightly nods, then he scans around to make sure there are no unwanted ears "Celeste was sent here originally to assess the danger of an ancient prophecy that heralds a dark time known as the Age of Worms. Apparently there is a location relevant to those prophecies that she sorted out to be here: The Spire of Long Shadows. She requested my support and we finally located the place in the middle of the jungle."

He then relaxes leaning back in his sit and casually sipping a spoon of soup "The place is nerve breaking but it was calm though, no trace of any darkness and Celeste thinks it is better to not try access the Spire itself for it could open the way for whatever is inside"

"So... what is your business now? Is there anything we can do for you?" he completes.

Eidi smiles wide as the group says good bye to the giant.

Taking an overall sight of the area, he nods to Ascaria "I cannot turn us invisible again, but I can indeed dimension door us to avoid guard eyes. It is a bit far, but I think I can do it"

The elder waits for the others to prepare, and then casts dimension door to transport the group to the Round House. To some balcony or otherwise the roof or the house visible entrance.

"Very reasonable Kogen of the Giant Citadel" Eidi coughs a couple times, placing his hand in front of his mouth to be polite "If you would be extra generous you could point to us how to, and where to, present our respects to the Giant King"

As the group retreats, Eidi nods while answering telepathically Agreed. Let's press the matter while the magics last.

"Indeed, excuse us Kagro, we could not announce ourselves properly and follow the protocols of diplomacy" Eidi nods, supporting Ascaria's voice "The dragons outside would not allow us. Our quest can severely damage the dragons' interests"
Diplomacy aid: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (3) + 14 = 17

The elder leans on his staff like if he was very tired and could hardly pose a fight to a strong giant like that.

"Yes, very powerful, young giant" Eidi frowns and stares the giant while drawing a circle in the air with his staff "We have the chance to ally together against the dragons before they burst your storage with their breath"
Diplomacy aid: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (12) + 14 = 26

The elder half-elf blinks thinking on Mortimer's proposal "Hum... do you have some kernels of corn there? Perhaps that can give us a great popcorn dragon burst. Not a bad alternative!"

"Oh youngster, where have I left my staff?" Eidi gropes around while slowly opening his eyes until he stumbles with the oak piece "Ah! You are here! Where... where was I... oh yes, we were inviting this young big man to parley when everything burst into fire. Oh... hum... hope the cookies are not burnt"

<Present!>

You have all my understanding! And welcome back! :)

Eidi pads Mortimer's back "Not worth, the giant is a savage with the brain size of a nut. Getting frustrated is only going to make us bad"

If there is a chance for another round, the half-elf hits the ground with the end of his staff, bringing a shield protection around himself.

"We have most certainly not set a start for a solid relationship" Eidi nods then smiles back at the giant "I concede on that. But acknowledge the maiden's steel is another solid argument to calm down and parley"

The half-elf peeks at the hydra regenerating "The giant is right. The heads will regenerate as long as they are not severed"

"Hmmm.... well, at least we are trying Lord giant" Eidi tries to support if possible Ascaria attempts.

Then shrugs when Solrisa teaches him who started it.

Perception: 1d20 + 27 ⇒ (16) + 27 = 43
"Shall I point out you started the aggression?" Looking at the fallen hydra Eidi offers a manner of apology to the giant "I am sorry for Noggins, she probably did not deserve that kind of icy end. But things here could benefit of some cooling down, if you want to resume speaking"

Hearing some more company quickly approaching the half-elf does not take the risk though and casts mirror image to protect himself in case of continued aggression.
Images: 1d4 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6

"Well, we will have to negotiate again with your boss" the elder shrugs just before being surprised by a explosion of fire.

Eidi barely manages to protect himself from the fire shower "Oh, ouch! That is a hot situation!"

"I do guess the best option is to cool off all the heads ensemble" profiting there is no ally in the middle, Eidi produces a small crystal and bursts a cone of cold all over the pyrohydra and the giant.

Sense Motive: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 24
"You seem sincere on not knowing about Dragotha. As Ascaria says, the undead dragon wants his phylactery back to elude the possibility of a violent death, and once she has it she will unleash the Age of Worms upon us" Eidi stretches his eyes looking at the giant leader "I do not know what problems you and humans might have had in the past, but that is nothing compared with the Doom of the Age of Worms. We better join up on destroying that phylactery before our disputes become pointless to the greater catastrophe"

Eidi ends the invisibility revealing the party "Oh sure they have one of the heads closer to the stomach, although what stomach?" the elder smiles.

"Sorry for coming invisibly, but we did not want the dragons to find out as we sneaked in to parley" the half-elf opens one hand and makes a prestidigitation small illusion of a dragon made of bones "Dragotha is menacing the stability of our world, we need to defeat it. The thing is, we have discovered there is something precious for him that was hidden in this valley. We need to find and destroy that thing before the dragon leader can be defeated"

"That is the reason of the dragon siege, isn't? The dragons want Dragotha's most precious treasure, am I right?"

"As I thought..." Eidi messes his short beard as his detect magic is also disrupted "there is some kind of ward against divination magic in place"

"Sure Mortimer" the half-elf smiles to those able to see him invisible "let's give them a bottom-surprise"

"For some oddity the telepathy spell just failed..." explains Eidi. He tries to cast detect magic an examine whatever auras are protecting the area.
K. arcana: 1d20 + 28 ⇒ (12) + 28 = 40

The elder picks up one of the tanglefoot bags and leverages it at his hands, twisting it around while he thinks on the scene "I fear we might have arrived late... the dragons have already attacked the citadel as it appears"

"Shall we check what is in this floor? Or shall we go to the bottom of it?" Eidi smiles kindly pointing to the next trapdoor.
Perception (low-light vision, see invisibility): 1d20 + 27 ⇒ (11) + 27 = 38

"So you think The Thing is in this giant city Mortimer?" the half-elf is impressed the idea has not happened to him.

"Pretty clever Ascaria, let's talk mentally" Eidi completes the telepathic bond spell linking everyone with it.

I do not have the locate magic prepared, but I can do it when we have the chance to rest. then pointing the northern door So far I suggest we start by opening this door, then we start going to the bottom

Sorry, I got quite busy finishing work before holidays, then got stranded by the Christmas.

Besides, Merry Christmas everyone!

"Crawler Loads. That's the unusual ammunition they are using. Severed carrion crawler heads. The worse is not the impact but the large reservoir of carrion crawler brain juice poison inside. Nasty" explains Eidi, then realizing Ascaria does not see the whole picture "Oh, there is a huge giant city clinging on the cliff. There are three pinnacles to the west, two of them seem inhabited and connect to the main city with bridges. The streets seem a chaos, the place has been on fight for a while"

Arriving to the citadel, the half-elf points to the top of the tower "We probably are better landing on there to figure better out what is going on. We can then explore invisibly the citadel. My only fear is appearing unannounced might not be seen as very friendly"

"I think for now we are trying to figure out what is happening. So, yes, let's try this invisibility trick" seeing Ascaria does not use invisibility purge yet, Eidi casts sphere of invisibility and leads the party into the town to see what the giants are up to and what's the siege about.

"This is worrisome, a couple of those dragons I know and their presence can only mean doom" Eidi looks concerned and points at one notorious ancient red dragon perched on a far tower, watching the battle across the city "That is Brazzemal the Burning. Hundreds of years ago, his fury brought an age of fire down upon several southern nations, and countless adventurers perished in an attempt to locate the dragon’s lair in the inhospitable Hellfurnaces. Eventually, the dragon allied with the giant armies of King Snurre and played a part in the razing of Sterich. He hasn’t been heard from in nearly two decades"

Then he points to a building, to some invisible dragon "And that is Necrozyte. This one is a fiendish old green dragon that hails from the Nine Hells, where she served as a guardian over one of Tiamat’s hoards nonetheless. When a particularly sly adventuring party recently stole a book of infinite spells from this hoard, Tiamat exiled Necrozyte to the Material Plane, where she has maintained a relatively low profile"

"Indeed, battle is chaos Ascaria, but perhaps we could try to check out if the giants are potential allies or also enemies... Do you want us to try out sneaking into the city and talking with their leaders? It might be as risky as facing an army of dragons..." if so, Eidi will cast sphere of invisibility for the group to more easily get into the city.

"Hmmm... thanks for the information Damsk. The Prince clown was most insidious, I would not be surprised any of the guests decided to show him some place... deep down in the ocean" the half-elf chuckles and accepts another glass of milk before departing.

-------

"So yes Solrisa! It's North! Follow me!" Eidi exclaims as he completes the find the path spell.

The elder is greatly impressed by the size of the ruins. Spotting the dragons attacks, he rushes to the top of the cliff, somewhere well hidden behind a rock where the group can safely transform back into themselves.

Once into solid matter again he points to the ruins alarmed "Have you seen that? The place is under siege... by dragons! Those must be Dragotha's minions..."

Eidi tries to look from a safe distance if the dragons are undead or alive, and if there is some structure in the ruins that seems inhabited.

"Oh it is fine Damsk, it is great to remember a good story" Eidi orders a large glass of milk "I can explain you when the Lord Prince and myself we become chickens and had a fought to see whom of us would turn most others into stone. How does that one sound?"

"You should have also seen the display of true strength between Mortimer and Hoff, the dwarf yes, it was impressive and many assistants ate their nails out of tension" the half-elf nods asserting the truth of the tale "The feast was so rich that even Eri and Mortimer tossed chocolade at each other, can you figure out that? How Zeech manages to get all those richness?"

"Or when Zeech gave me a marzipan soup as trophy" the elder rolls his eyes on the memories of his soaked clothings.

---

After long hours of flight, Eidi points out "Perhaps we can try to look for signs of intelligent life. Some buildings or other kind of structures, so we can just ask where the Rift Canyon is exactly? Otherwise I guess we can ask for the gods to guide us"

If there is no villages or lone huts where to ask, Eidi can prepare and cast find the path

Eidi studies the phylacteries portfolio "This is very useful, thanks a lot for it Manzorian"

Breakfast temp HP: 1d8 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9

"What do you think about having a second breakfast by the Laughing Dawn Tavern as is tradition with our first visits to Alhaster and remember old days with Damsk? I know it was just a couple of months ago, but it rings as if it has been two years already" Eidi points towards the area of the docks "Maybe just a drink before taking flight into the more serious stuff"

Before leaving the Church of Blessed Deliverance, Eidi casts mage armor on himself.

"I have had a dream my worm fighter friends. We waked up in a world without Dragotha and its dragon minions and we could make the Pub an inter-planar tavern for adventurers around to join in great feasts of spirited beverages, tender meat and delightful cookies." Eidi smiles one day with all preparations completed.

With everything else ready, the half-elf casts teleport ant brings the group back to Alhaster where they can perform a faster travel.
Teleport failure: 1d100 ⇒ 77 On target

"Yes sure, take some Solrisa" Eidi is happy to see the maiden happy once again. The elder creates a heroes' breakfast specially stoked with hams, cheeses and cakes of many flavors, including chocolate and strawberry ones. In fact, he does this every day while they gear up to fight Dragotha.

After the 9th days, he is half-way to complete his crafting, but otherwise he is ready to travel "I can teleport us to Alhaster, from there maybe Ascaria can make us again into a white cloud so we can direct ourselves to the Mindspin Mountains. The Rift Canyon must be about 500 miles northeast"

"Ssssshhh!" Eidi covers his lips with a finger while he walks back slowly closing the door "The maiden is dreaming now in a land of sugar trees and chocolate fountains! Most probably"

---------------

The next day Eidi greets everyone's morning on the kitchen, renewing his pot of cookies "So... Sol. How did you sleep tonight? Any good dreams?"

For the next days the half-elf keeps working on enhancing his headband, mounting together new rubies and quartzs, and other gems the group has found and he has been reserving for himself. After each new gem is added, he follows in with long hours of enchanting, following the many notes written in his old book of magic.

He follows more of less the same routine until the group decides everyone is ready to depart for Kongen-Thulnir.

"Emmmm, erm... this was just some kind of mage trick to show you how it is done" Eidi rolls his eyes around trying to conceal he did not pay enough attention to the druids words "But do not worry, we will try out next time you get some sleep. We will get you some cheese if that helps out!"

Once the meeting with the druids is done, Eidi gathers with Ascaria to travel back to the pub. There he continues his crafting and let's the others let him know if Solrisa falls sleep to come by her room and perform the ritual. The magic wish ritual. The diamond magic wish ritual.

At the Manor
"How about 'We trust The Silver Wings and we are heading to the hole to finish the work?' Hope it is clear enough for the intended recipient" Eidi proposes.

With the druids
"Oh! Yes of course, it was just a display of training to check how we would do it" Eidi coughs and discretely returns the diamond to his spell casting pouch.

"Oh Solrisa! So that was it the reason we could not lift her curse?" Eidi nods Maxie "Thank you for your guidance. I think I know how to help her"

Without further ado, Eidi produces one of the four precious diamonds and says the arcane words for a limited wish "I wish Solrisa's curse of the Night Twist is lifted so she does not become one when the last day reaches her and her soul can join the River of Souls"

The words carry powerful magic and when the ritual ends the diamond is magically consumed.

"Are you ok? How do you feel?" the elder looks at the half-elf exploratory, never having performed these great magics before.

"Quickly! Give me your hands!" Eidi runs from the corner of the room to nearby the fireplace, picking Kristof Jurgensen, Maavu and Lady Ophellha in the run and gesturing for Liorial Lathenmire to approach "Quickly, this is too dangerous! Let's leave this to the experts!"

When the smithy woman reaches the half-elf, he says words of arcane power and disappears with those around him using a dimension door.

"A double phylactery? Hmmm.... a worrying thought" Eidi ponders the idea but discards it negating with the head "The life soul binds to the object when the undeath comes... thus, it seems difficult to create another one when the soul is already trapped. But if the wizard is powerful enough... it is difficult to tell where is the limit. I do not think so, but who can discard..."

---

"Oh, and explain also when Solrisa killed all the orcs. Just she was not Solrisa! I think it was one of the Darl Quethos minions" Eidi also gives details on the way Mortimer hold heroically the Roc King and how they all were lured by a great tree in the middle of the forest "Of course, we left a few loose strings here and there... but well, who is to notice when the job is done. Isn't it?" Or so does the half-elf hope.

Eidi's head spin, his face going paler and his thoughts staling as he studies the darkest secrets of becoming a lich. Being reborn in its destruction. Releasing the body from its human needs to fully devote to knowledge. Eternity and potential omniscience. The elder has to shake his head and remind himself of the reasons behind their chase in order to stay focused.

Although less chatty than usual, Eidi does indeed share his findings in the Temple Library with anyone among the Outcasts that dare to ask.
Feel free to open Eidi's spoiler

----------------------------------

"Very much thanks Larson, for your help and orientation. Are you allowed to tell us where the Lady has gone?" Eidi shows his fist a coin between two fingers, and a cookie between other two. The half-elf let's the half-orc choose "Thanks for your help"

----------------------------------

Eidi is happy to see Eri again and offers him a hug "Happy to see you are doing well. Sure, I am up for some of their stories, and I happen to remember there was good stocked food involved too"

"Oh, ummm... a baby owlbear phylactery? That is an intriguing idea Solrisa! I never read about a phylactery that is a living creature, but why not? I mean... well, I guess the creature shall be able to life for multiple centuries, perhaps millennia, but it is certainly and interesting theory" Eidi reflects deeply on the matter and forgets to actually answer the half-elf's question.

One of the days during their wait, Eidi teleports the group to Alhaster so they can visit Lashona and the druids, just on the ruined temple where they found Rhorsk and Eri departed.
Teleport error: 1d100 ⇒ 24

Eidi profits the evenings at the pub to work hard on the headband improvement, but completion will need some extra time.
9*3000 = 27000 of 50000 gp (DC 32 = 5 + 12 CL + 10 speed + 5 no fox cunning)

"Oh, yes, I think Kongen-Thulnir, but we were considering a stop to talk with Lashonna. I think it might be worth. In the end she was the one who put us on track to Tilagos island" and of course this time the group knows about the elf little secret "I can teleport us to Alhaster to talk with her. We can also reach the Mindspin Mountains more easily from that point too"

Eidi saddens, feeling pity for Solrisa "I do understand you. I have been travelling around and have no place to call home. I thought coming back to the country I was born to would make me feel at place, but I too still feel out of place. However, I have found you and all this adventures and that eases up the lack of belonging" the half-elf puts a hand on Solrisa's shoulder and shakes her compassionately.

Back at the Temple Library, Eidi opens the larger books on old history and undead creature compendiums searching for the phylacteries and how others have destroyed them in the past, and what types of shapes and forms those phylacteries often take.
