Temple*: Midnight turns as she feels the creatures materialize. "Such annoyances dare try to interfere with my quest? You will be perfect test subjects for my new powers." She will spend a MP on wild arcana to cast Dragon's Breath, mimicking a Silver dragon's cold breath since she notices the chuuls are made of Lava and are natives of the plane of fire. (DC 28 reflex save for half, 30ft cone)
Sorry I have been busy this past week, works a b&$&# also I didn’t realise you were describing the chamber with your GM’s note I thought that was just some background info lol
Temple: Midnight feels a sense of peace here in this small sanctum carved with her Goddess’s energy. She kneels in reverence of the chamber’s guardian and she receives the vision with anticipation. Upon seeing them, she understands the meaning behind them quickly, something threatens the sanctity of this temple. Something stands in her way of communing with her goddess.
She will first use some minor magic such as mending and prestidigitation to maintain the alter and revert any cracks in the altar she sees. Then she will use her spell-like ability and cast divination asking, “Great Dreamer, something is clearly trying to expel and corrupt your influence in this chamber, tell me where I can find it so I may correct this slight.”
Temple of Desna(GM): Midnight travels with Kenyu down into the caverns having used her divinations to uncover the location of this temple to her goddess. Midnight gazes at the constellations carved into the rock, studying them before smiling. This seems like a very promising lead indeed. Midnight will lead the way, following the spiral patterns deeper into the caverns.
Midnight watches the Jellyfish like creatures move and wonders what they are. She also tries to recall if they have any connections to Desna or if they simply are creatures who just moved in here
Hey GM, since we are skipping forward one day could midnight spent another divination to lead herself to the entrance of volcanic caverns? The place the site is supposed to be buried under? She has one use left for the day anyway so might as well
For Myriana, Midnight thinks you are screwing up the negotiation. First, you gave Kenyu a proposal that doesn’t make any sense given the destroyed town. Second, upon realising it is a disaster you loudly admit it is a disaster. Third, after handing Kenyu all the leverage by admitting it is a disaster and showing her you are not a reliable leader, you demand she help you fix the guild’s mistakes for essentially nothing. You are giving her nothing that she wants and you expect her to just agree to it. Think about it what leverage do we actually have here? Most dangerously, you are asking for trouble by including the bit about returning the civilians after the supposed reconstruction. What if the civilians that go with Kenyu would rather stay with her due to safer living conditions and her natural charisma? Kenyu will likely not push them to come back and if you do so, you would further damage relations between the two guild. All for a bunch of civilians who aren’t important at all to the guild. Midnight doesn’t see the point.
Midnight will pipe up and say, “The town is a disaster and one that will need much correction before it is liveable again. Your instinct to leave it with survivors in tow to a safer location is sound, Kenyu. But Myriana, I am afraid there is something that I will require Kenyu’s help with and she will not be able to assist with the town’s reconstruction.” Midnight turns to Kenyu and says, “There is a important religious location somewhere in Cinder and I believe you would be interested it uncovering it with me. I intend to use it to communicate with my Goddess and your holy nature could be useful in helping me in this regard. If you do this with me, you would be helping improve relations between our Guilds and…” Midnight racks her brain to come up with something to offer Kenyu in exchange before saying, “You can keep any civilians you extract who wish to stay under your protection.”
I didn’t even realise John was talking tbh, since I was focused on Myriana and the dungeon fight. While Midnight could spend MP on fly for John, I don’t think she would be willing to at the moment so there isn’t much she would be able to do to help him reach the Obelisk faster GM if Kenyu is agreeable can we just hand wave the civilian evacuation so that Midnight can skip ahead to doing her stuff with Kenyu? I don’t really want to wait too much longer to start Midnight’s search for the location.
Midnight hops on Echo as Myriana flies off so that she can follow. She thought Myriana calling out for Kenyu was odd since she thought Myriana would have guessed by their story that Kenyu was likely in front of the temple. Thankfully it seems Myriana happened upon the right place as Kenyu seemed to respond to Myriana’s calls. Midnight lands next to Myriana as she asks her question. She could have answered her but Kenyu spoke first. Kenyu seemed to be focused on Myriana for the moment and that was good. Hopefully Myriana and Kenyu could come to an accord so that Midnight could progress on her own mission. Midnight speaks up as Kenyu finishes, “Hello again, Kenyu. This energetic fey is indeed Myriana and she is the one our guild has decided to place in charge of Cinder. I think you’d find her more pleasant to work with than Desseer. I am here to, amongst other things, deescalate things if necessary”
Actually it’s fine. Midnight knows where Kenyu is she can just catch up to you two on Echo. I will have Midnight join Myriana. After this conversation with Kenyu, Myriana bring Verick to her so she can ask him if he knows anything about the volcanic caverns
You could just say you are not sure and tell midnight where to find him? Since you are meeting Kenyu yourself, midnight can busy herself elsewhere(finding him) while you two talk
SoS huddle: Midnight nods at John before the result of her divination rings in her head. She tilts her head confused, “Ok if it isn’t you John it has to be a descendant. He is also named Morgrave Sorbin, he is closer than I know, he was/still might be blind but he can see. Huh.”
She turns to Myriana, “Myriana, you mentioned you have a retainer who was blind and recently cured of it correct? What is his full name? With this divination, it is very likely someone the guild already knows and this tidbit that he is blind yet now able to see could refer to your retainer who was cured of his magical blindness”
Midnight doesn’t actually require gold to copy spells due to her blessed book so all it takes is time. I do agree that we should wait till stuff is more settled
SoS huddle(GM):
Midnight hums as she thinking before she asks John, “There is an obselisk located near the area I am supposed to go to. It’s made of some sort of gem-like material. Does that ring any bells for you? If not then it looks like it’s one of your descendants. I can ask for a name but i expect I should examine the volcanic caverns myself if I wish to find it.” She ponders the thought for a moment before shrugging.
“No matter I suppose I should be thorough.” she reaches into her eldritch heritage and uses the well of power within her to recharged her spell-like ability. She then speak the question aloud this time aiming to be specific, “where can I find this individual who can lead me to the important location in cinder”
Midnight will wait for Myriana to ask for her plan before she presents it. She will also let Desseer speak first because she also wants to hear what exactly Desseer plans to do. Her plan is unchanged though With Myriana’s contextualisation of the effects their new bodies have on their personalities, Midnight is not surprised Kenyu threatened Desseer. However, she does not believe Kenyu intends to threaten the guild as she made no such threats against Midnight when she got between the two of them.
Have you heard the expression, “your smile doesn’t reach your eyes?”. That’s midnight with basically all emotions except the very mild ones like contentment and disappointment. She can feel stronger emotions when she makes advances or faces set backs to her main goals, but so far I have been limiting even her strong emotions to things like excitement or curiosity
SoS huddle:
Midnight listens to Desseer’s words and her disappointment seems to grow. Before she could respond though, Myriana’s words and actions catch her attention. She gazes at Myriana and looks her over. Her eyes widen as she seems to realise something. ”Oh, it seems I underestimated the extent our natures have had on our behaviour. Thank you Myriana, you have provided me the necessary information to contextualise the behaviour of the players.”
She turns to Desseer and says, ”There is no point arguing amongst ourselves and your speech has already told me everything I need to know. Much like Myriana and Kislum, you too are a victim of your new body. Your actions and behaviour does not make sense in the context of a human who has been given new found power. It matches what a fiend of the abyss would do if placed in your situation. You seek to maintain dominance and show strength at all times because that’s what a demon in Yggdrasil would do. You think any form of capitulations is weakness and betrayal because to demons, giving someone else anything is tantamount to submission. And weakness is punished in the abyss.” she then point to the tentacles. “I seem to be no exception. Outer spawn are creatures of the dark tapestry so it seems my thought process is lacking most emotions. I suppose it’s telling as well. I should have felt frustration at your incapacity to understand my concerns but all I feel is muted disappointment and disbelief. You think my cackle was mocking you which fits with demonic logic. I was cackling at the how illogical your plan to stay was. The number of ways I saw it backfiring amused me. And i am merely in the first stage, i wonder how my thinking would change as time goes on. “ She frowns, “This is should be concerning to you too, if you are not already in too deep. Do you remember how in Yggdrasil, knowing the type of monster you were facing was pivotal.” she causally lists off her fingers, “if you did, you could guess its behaviour, what its weak to, how to distract it, how to provoke it, even how to convince it leave you alone via roleplay. There were entire guides dedicated to monster behaviour and how to exploit it.”. She tapped her chin and nods at Myriana, “We need an outside adjudicator yes. You will suffice for this plan but I have a suggestion. We will likely need an outside judge someone whose perspective isn’t so clouded by planar energies and monstrous perspective. Failing that, I suppose Myriana could take on this position actively. Fey are fickle creatures but that means their minds are not so fixed into one type of thinking. She would likely be the best candidate…” Myriana:
I made a minor edit on the ooc part. I was trying to find a word that conveys , “I can’t believe I have to have this conversation” and I think incredulous fit this better than exasperated
SoS huddle:
Midnight sighs wearily at Desseer, “Desseer, do you know what the definition of insanity is? It is to do the same thing over and over expecting a different result. This is the third time. Third Time you have adopted a tone of hostility and anger when met with the slightest opposition. It angered Kenyu. Kislum nearly attacked you. Do you really think it is wise to adopt such an approach with me?”
Her voice takes on the tone of an exasperated teacher, “I think your so called accomplishments so far has left you complacent. You clearly faced no true opposition since you have come into this world. You allied with the only guild equal to us with little effort. You orchestrated the defeat of the bandit lords in a small town. Perhaps you even did more stuff all while facing little resistance from the people you met. Your ‘accomplishments’ have made your head too big. Perhaps this is also the fault of Ink and Myriana. Clearly by your reaction they have never voiced true opposition to any of your plans. “ “Unlike Kenyu or Kislum, I never even raised my voice. I merely pointed out how your presence serves little logical purpose and perhaps, you could put your skills to greater use elsewhere. Allowing us to kill two birds with one stone. Your reaction is to… what? Chide and mock me? Midnight shakes her head, disappointed “Do you know why I think it’s your pride that blinds you? It’s because you have not given me an actual reason why your presence will help the situation at all. All you did was snidely point out that there could be more than one Morgrave in the town, which is a horrendously stupid observation because obviously I intend to search cinder throughly for this person. John just happens to be the first one within reach to question. Oh and of course brag about your achievements while claiming how insulting it is for me to point out when you do something without a good reason. If you are quite done with snide remarks and thinly veiled insults, we should move on the actual problem at hand. Namely what benefit your presence in cinder will bring to the negotiation and why it is more important for you to be here instead of setting up for the next step in Drother”
SoS huddle(GM):
Midnight after hearing Kislum’s words turns to John and says, “Is what Kislum says true, John? There is an important religious location under Cinder, either in or below the volcanic caverns. Desna seems sure you can lead me there. What do you know about it?”
Midnight seems pleased at Desseer’s words, “I see, that’s excellent news then. And her I was thinking we have nothing to offer her. I say we let her do as she wishes with the civilians in exchange for her following me. Knowing her alignment, she will leave behind the bandits and craterlords, taking only the civilians. Meaning the people with combat experience will have no where to go but into Myriana’s arms. This should suit our purposes well enough.” Midnight lets out a cackling laugh at Desseer’s wish to stay, before turning serious and asking, ”And why should you stay in Cinder exactly? You would contribute little besides stoking her ire. I could hold her off in a fight by myself because I have tools available to me that you don’t. Once Myriana copies my spell book she will have the means to survive and escape as well. We would not need your help. You possess no means to my knowledge of reliably harming her. Outside of combat, I am as capable of strategic thinking as you are. Probably more so because I have the wisdom to match my intelligence. I don’t require your guidance there either. Your talents would be far better put to use in Drother. Where you would be free to exercise the full power of your enchantment magic and find us the opening we need for the mission in Drother” Midnight eyes you curiously, ”Tell me, why exactly are you so eager to stay? If you do have a plan, share it. I could help you refine it or point out flaws you haven’t thought of.”
Myriana you are free to add any spells from Midnights spell book to yours if you will allow her to do the same. For ease of conversation, let’s just say we do this while everything is happening Oh and if anyone would like to tell me who Morgrave is please do Yes I know it’s John but I don’t think Desseer or John ever told Midnight his full name
SoS huddle(everyone+GM): As midnight finishes her spell, her eyes widen in glee. She turns to the group and says, “My search has bare fruit already. I have a name and a general location. “
She turns to Myriana, “First things first, hello Myriana it’s been a while. RARGHG has ventured off into a dragons lair in search of powerful foes to test herself against. Kislum over here will join her after this meeting. Desseer intends to head to Drother and ink will…huh I guess stay here and do his religious writings? There is a new variable in the form of Kenyu, a member of Dragon’s Glory. Desseer and her seem to rub each other the wrong way so I hope we could work together to ease the tension. Desseer will leave for Drother and I have a task that will hopefully get Kenyu to leave Cinder with me. Your job is to convince Kenyu that our guild is not completely full of evil creatures she should fight. Your demeanour and plan for cinder should help me in this. “ “Oh and here Myriana” midnight’s blessed book appears in her arms. , “ Let’s copy each others spells so that our repertoire is sufficient for the tasks ahead” She then turns to ask the rest of the huddle, “Desna has given me a name. Morgrave. I must find him as soon as possible. Does anyone have any clues where to look?”
Good to know that your wife will be alright. I understand how stressful medical situations can be sometimes. Since black has told midnight about the volcanic vents, could one of her questions be replaced by “Is the important location in the volcanic vents under cinder?”. Likely her first question about if the time is in cinder.
I am still waiting on GM for my commune spell. Then I can present what I know to Myriana
SoS huddle:
Midnight looks over at Hrothgarn and shrugs, “Sure if you say so. His services could be very useful indeed. Eventually.” Midnight gives Desseer a nod, “Glad you picked it out. I figured it out myself as well a little while ago. “
She then looks to you seriously for a second, saying, “That said, I believe I could use her help. Desna has informed me there is some site of religious importance somewhere in this region and I believe I should seek it out.” She then gestures to all of the seeds of slaughter, “It should be self evident why I must insist none of you follow me Considering one of you is a demon, another a vampire and the last one seeks to use religion for his own gain. I do not like my odds of succeeding should you join me. But I will not leave you hanging either Desseer. Once the search is over, I should be able to join you on the quest in Drother. I want to inspect that place for myself as well. You can do what you do best in Drother first. Set up the foundation for our business there. It would likely be for the best, I am not the most pleasing to the eyes. Secure our bases, find us an ‘in’ so to speak. Then my magical prowess can help you exploit this opening.” “It is in our best interest that you head to Drother. That will help ease Kenyu and hopefully Myriana will prove herself more amicable to her. Her presence is likely to be useful in all manner of ways plus she stays out of our other businesses elsewhere. I intend to approach her alone or at most with Myriana. Considering you are leaving Myriana in charge of Cinder, this should be acceptable yes?”
So Kenyu, I was thinking. Since the GM is going ahead with my plan for me to find a temple and commune with Desna, do you want to come help me?I already ran it by Desseer and just waiting on the GM reply but he probably won’t deny it if you want to join. Midnight likely won’t be able to have any guild members follow since, Desseer’s a demon, Kislum is a vampire, Myriana is a fey and ink is trying to make his own religion which is probably some type of heresy. Plus with your holy template it might be easier to connect with the divine. In exchange, Desseer will leave the city and you are free to do as you please with the civilians. If you agree, midnight will approach you about it later on. After her commune spell
The void worm can only do commune once per week so when one week passes in game, do let me know so I can use it again I asked all the questions in one shot to not bog down the conversation with 6 additional posts that are just one question each. Hopefully at least one of them can point me in the right direction
SoS huddle(GM, commune spell(6 questions)):
Midnight will press her lips into a line. She will put her hand up and say, “ Actually, hold that thought, I have another idea I want to try.”. She snapped her fingers and a small worm like creature flies out from under her robes. The shifting and changing creature chitters out a greeting in a strange language no one but midnight can understand(speak with master familiar ability), “Greetings mistress. What can I do for you tonight.”. Midnight replies in the same tongue, “I require information, information you can grant me. Commune with our Goddess. I need more knowledge to proceed.”.
The twisting worm stops and suddenly calms itself, its innate magic reaching the outer planes with an ease that midnight had yet to achieve herself. ”Ask us anything.” The language is still alien but the tone is stranger, more whimsical? Midnight’s questions comes swiftly, “Is the location I am looking for in Cinder? Is it a Temple in the traditional sense? Would I be able to identify it as important if I spot it? Is it hidden by spells or natural phenomena? Is there an identifiable landmark near it I can use to find it? Is there someone I can find who can lead me to it?
SoS huddle(need black’s response):
Midnight’s eyes widen before a faint giggle emits from her lips. With a tone that carries both interest and glee, she says, ” If Desna is real, she certainly has a sense of humour. Very interesting.”. She giggles again before continuing, “When i did the divination for RARGHG, i only remember hearing a set of instructions. No clear discernible voice. Now though, i certainly hear someone. And her carefree voice is much more distinctive than before.”
Midnight lifts her hand to her chin in a ponderous manner before muttering, ” What I seek could be closer than I know. Drother has far more quantity than quality. Mmmm, and my question was where the closest temple of Desna from Drother is. If she speaks literally, it means there is a larger, grander, more important or more holy temple closer to me than Drother. And there are more temples that are smaller or less important in Drother. Unless…” “You Craterlord Black. You rule the temple district correct? Is there any other temples other than this cathedral of chains who rever Asmodeus? Are there any other temples near Cinder dedicated to the gods of Good?”
SoS huddle: As the group is talking, midnight will grasp her holy symbol and begin casting divination through her divine bonded item. As she channels the magic she will think on the question she intents to ask her deity. Once ten minutes past, the question will pass through her lips, “Where is the nearest temple of Desna from Drother?”
(13% failure chance, looking for a 14 or more)
Honestly playing midnight so far has been an overall positive experience for me so I think Ink’s player and Kenyu’s player could have a good time with a second character. As long as everyone has fun I think it’s fine
SoS huddle: Midnight nods in appreciation, “Thank you for understanding. I am sure we will be able to deal with any complications just fine. I am sure you do have plans. Though, come to think of it, I am unsure if I would actually lose myself. This is untested grounds after all. Mmm I probably shouldn’t test it unless absolutely necessary though. Oh well, I guess only time will tell.”
SoS huddle:
Midnight clears her throat, “Actually Desseer, I have to ask you to not torture or kill any cleric of Desna. Atleast until I can determine if she is watching her clerics. If she is and she get angry I allowed you to kill them, I could lose my divine powers. Which means the guild loses access to its only mythic divine caster. I am sure you would prefer I kept my powers, would you not.”
She then points to the tentacles and protrusions that cover her body, “plus there is one more complication. I am very old outer mutant. While this wasn’t a problem in game, if the lore of the game has become real, something is stopping me from completing my transformation into a true creature of the void. Desna could very well be that force. So unless you would like to fight the abomination I might become, try to not go around killing her priests until I can determine if she is truly the source of my divine power. “ She then smiles, “ with some luck you won’t have to wait for long. I believe I just need to find some sort of temple of Desna or a related god. I believe I should be able to determine from there if she is out there and watching her clerics.”
SoS huddle: Midnight doesn’t display too much of a reaction to Kislum’s comment as she had expected her to give some variant of an atheistic answer. She merely shrugs and hopes ink doesn’t get too offensive with his new religion’s scripture
SoS huddle: Midnight waves ink before saying, “Hello Ink. I apologise that I didn’t go looking for you while at base. I’d assumed it would be difficult to find you if you were disguised and that you would show up eventually. Good to see you too. “
Midnight stares at ink curiously, “say what have you been up to recently Ink? RARGHG only vaguely mentioned you were starting a religion here and I got curious. Care to enlighten me? Oh and if you are serious, you’d best be careful. My divinations return answers meaning at the very least Desna is out there somewhere. I wouldn’t be surprised if other gods are also real. It’s unlikely a local cult will catch any of their attentions but try not to go out of your way to offend them.” Midnight then looks to Desseer, saying, “That reminds me, are there any temples to the good gods in Drother? I should visit one and test out a hypothesis of mine.”
SoS huddle: Midnight will nod her head, “yes hopefully I will not have to do that anymore. I never expected to have to do that once, much less twice”.
She will tilt her head curiously, “what were you doing before this? Does it have to do with the magical Vault in Drother?”
SoS huddle: Midnight scoffs, “No Desseer. I think you have done more than enough talking for the day. If Myriana wants to take a softer hand in Cinder it will be for the better. Your headstrong attitude has already run afoul with two people today, unless you wish to make another enemy it’s best you restrain yourself. Plus, it will be better for relations if it appears that Myriana’s stance is more kind or good leaning. Less chance of Kenyu doing anything unpredictable. “
SoS huddle: Midnight will hum in acknowledgement before she comments, ”Good for her. I suppose she is the one Myriana needs to be cured of blindness then. Good to know”
SoS huddle: Midnight will say, “Myriana has replied she is on her way over. Though, she did say ‘we’ so I assume she is bringing some company over. Any clue who that may be Desseer?”
Desseer steps out of the huddle and shouts over to the others, "Hey! Sorry to interrupt, but I thought you might be interested that Myriana is likely on her way here."
SoS huddle: Midnight pipes up, “I told Myriana about our current whereabouts. If she isn’t too busy she should be on her way. “ though she does frown a little at the end, ” surely you don’t mean to go back there and talk to them again so soon. Even if Myriana does most of the talking, are you sure disturbing their work would be wise?”
Midnight rubs her chin, thinking for a moment before saying, “Though, perhaps getting to see how they react to Myriana would be useful. Ask her when she gets here”. Midnight then relays to Kislum the same information she told RARGHG about the dragon’s lair
I can rethink the proposal to Kislum if it seems like meta gaming but I think midnight has enough in character motivation to send Kislum to RARGHG. Also it might make posting as RARGHG easier with someone else to discuss strategies and stuff with Ok then Dessser. I think that makes a lot of sense actually so it’s cool
Myriana:
Yes I can. Unless you are busy, come to [insert location ] SoS huddle:
Midnight merely nodded replying with, “ I understand the sentiment of wanting to preventing Kislum from ruining the alliance but I really doubt picking a fight with her is truly the best way. I do not believe you have the means to actually kill her for good as you lack the hallow spell. But… perhaps I can help with a compromise.”
“Kislum, RARGHG has left Cinder in search of greater foes elsewhere to strengthen herself and to amuse herself. Why don’t you go look for her? I know the rough location of where she is going and you should be more than capable of finding it. You can date you bloodlust on her prey and I am sure a red dragon will have more than enough loot to strengthen yourself.” midnight says after some thought. “ You will not need to be alone though. I can reach both of you with sending and I can also scry on RARGHG with little issue. If you meet some insurmountable foe, you both can retreat to cinder or I can telepathically tell you our location. Would that be acceptable?”
I feel like a babysitter, trying to stop a bunch of kids from fighting. Desseer are you ok? When I was playing as RARGHG I seem to remember you being a way better smooth talker. It seems odd you would put yourself in these situations. Did something happen to prompt such character change? If you are doing this purposely, you are certainly picking the strangest targets to antagonise
SoS Huddle: Midnight screams in frustration. She, for the second time in what 10 minutes(?), steps between Desseer and Kislum. “Knock it off both of you. Kislum if you truly believe Kenyu is so dangerous, I will take your advice into consideration. Desseer and I do not sit ideally by, we are in fact leaving in search of greater powers and magical items. To strengthen the guild and prepare for the possibility of war. You can do your own part and prepare or do recon while we are gone. And Desseer…”
“What is going on with you? Is your fiendish side really taking over? Why do you insist on picking fights with people you shouldn’t be picking fights with? I explicitly told you Kenyu would be a poor match up for you even before Kislum brought it up. Yet you still refused to even listen to her and still spoke to her in a way she just said she hated. And we both know what Kislum is like yet you choose to react in such a provocative way. Are you trying to prove her point of not understanding how beings like her think?” Midnight sighs exasperated. “We are guild mates guys. Start acting like it. Let’s stop wasting time and energy”
SoS huddle: Midnight nods in agreement, “I agree with Desseer’s assessment , Kislum. It is far too risky to go to war with them while we know nothing of their strength. What we do know is they are at the minimum comparable to us. And the risk of casualties in this war is too great to be acceptable. Desseer’s plan to contain them in cinder has the highest chance of success. She will be compelled by her nature to stay here. It is easy to predict what someone like her would do and we should be able to use that to our advantage. Why fight when we can succeed without it?”
What even is going on at the temple lmao Myriana if you’d like you could just reply to midnight’s sending and come find her, she can use inspired spell to cast remove blindness/deafness to cure your guy.
Temple: Midnight moves between Desseer and Kenyu, her voice cutting sharply through the tension, “Desseer that’s enough. I will not have my quest for knowledge cut short by your fiendish impulses. Perhaps you should sit this one out. “ Midnight’s voice leaves no room for argument.
She turns to Kenyu and bows slightly, “Forgive Desseer’s display. He cannot help himself, having grown so used to it here. His true form is that of a Half fiend, which is why he is so insistent of the disguise. We didn’t want to risk upsetting people with his appearance. My name is Midnight and as you can see, “ she gestures to her desnan holy symbol, “ I am a cleric of Desna. We are not your enemies, I swear on the great dreamer we are only here to collect this John.”
She lowers her voice to Desseer , “It is unwise for you especially to fight her. Trust me”
Smiling, midnight gestures to a Mobat laying lazily in the courtyard. With a quick call from Midnight the Mobat moves quickly to her side. “My mount Echo should be able to keep up with you so there is no need for you to carry me. Just lead the way and we will follow you. “ as she speaks, Opaline and Midnight quickly get on the Mobat. They quickly take flight soon after Desseer does and follows him to the next location
