I thought the final encounters were reasonably paced. Thanks for running this! I enjoyed this group too!

Well... I suppose this fits right in with dark, midnight rituals. Anything is expected at this point.

With the aid of her warding weapon, she imbues her scimitar with a spell and thrusts it forward at the mosquito.

[swift] Enter mystical focus Nilah's eyes turn opaque bright glowing yellow...

[full round] Spell combat

She seems to imbue her blade with an intense bolt of fire...

Spell strike: Cast scorching ray (allowed by Close Range magus arcana, no concentration check needed due to warding weapon, free attack to deliver)
+1 scimitar attack, P damage, scorching ray F damage (spell resistance): 1d20 + 8 - 2 ⇒ (4) + 8 - 2 = 101d6 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 114d6 ⇒ (6, 4, 1, 4) = 15

After likely missing with the first thrust, she growls and stabs again at the creature.

+1 scimitar attack, P damage: 1d20 + 8 - 2 ⇒ (9) + 8 - 2 = 151d6 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9
oof, the attack rolls...

Warding weapon: round 2/4
Mystical focus: round 1/2

So... I'm guessing something like this befell the tax collector.

Nilah looks down in focus for a moment, reciting some draconic incantation and when she looks up her scimitar seems to double. Another one splits off and floats nearby her as she moves, lunging at and threatening any nearby foes.

[standard] Cast warding weapon (she can now cast without needing concentration checks)
[move] 20 ft
Warding weapon: round 1/4

This place is brutal... Nilah remarks as she proceeds forward next to Nyshka. She holds her scimitar forward, not daring to put it away.

no buffs for now

Nilah frowns at the crowd building up around their foe.

No room to move. Must strike from the outside...

She draws her scimitar and tries her hand at slipping an acid splash past her teammates at the foe.

[move] draw weapon
[standard] cast acid splash
Ranged touch, acid damage: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 91d3 ⇒ 1

Yes, and hopefully any more foes we encounter have a more solid form... she remarks as she follows Mahakala's lead, pointing the way with her scimitar.

Oof. Caught without any AoE options.

Nilah brandishes her scimitar but she knows it won't do any good here. She growls under her breath in frustration.

Nilah approaches the maze warily. As she does, she scans the entrance with her arcane eye.

Nilah is both exhausted and flustered by the explanation.

Ritual...? How often do they need to make a sacrifice like this? We should stop this from happening.

Doors are still shut?

Nilah shoots up and out of bed, suddenly very aware and on edge. She steps over and opens the door...

Nilah is very suspicious of the mayor after her companions' perception of evil intent. She takes the first room to the west and, laying down on the bed, listens intently throughout the night for sounds of suspicious movement throughout the house. Until she falls asleep that is.

Perhaps tomorrow we can question some of the townsfolk to see what they know of the mayor and this peculiar set of young women. Now I wonder if that tax collector wasn't a victim of some sort... Nilah remarks, otherwise ready to retire for the evening.

No objections

Nilah appears unimpressed with Shel's obvious attempts.

also nope. Odd choice to write in at this point in the scenario.

Mostly she's intrigued by the sequence of the festival and the focus on the young women. She watches people carefully for any signs of hidden motive.

Nilah seems a little taken aback by the casualness with which the villagers take this incident.

Now and then...?! How often is "now and then"? Should we be worried about further disturbances tonight?

-----
She isn't overly hungry at the moment but is interested in the repeated references to the "Dreamer", or "Dream Tender."

Tell me more of this "Dream Tender." How do they protect you?

Nilah looks both stunned and disgusted by the sudden, transformed appearance of the pig.

What, indeed, is that thing?

She [move] draws her scimitar and [move] approaches cautiously...

Hmm.... that pig does not seem well. Prepped him for a foregone conclusion, did they?

Heal (untrained): 1d20 ⇒ 3 Despite her observation, Nilah is still not a healer nor knowledgeable in the ways of species' bodies.

ah, my bad. Well... I certainly don't feel like I lost much in those rolls :D

Perception: 1d20 ⇒ 16

On the outside, Nilah frowns and puts off an irritated demeanor, almost as if she's suspicion of "fun." But on the inside, this reminds her of the community she loved about her homeland and situation growing-up. Still, better to not let people know what pleases you. guarded and cynical, lol

Nilah accepts the invitation to participate in the fire-leaps, attempting to do so with the grace of her dancing talent. The spirit of the event is even tempting to her consider an impromptu performance later, but she defers for now.

The greasy pig, on the other hand, does not interest her at all...

Nilah sighs in resign.

Well, that's further than we'll be going today. But, I thank you for the information. The Society shall have to track him there after we return fro here.

She stops to really look around and take in the town.

I suppose we may as well take in your festival. We appreciate the hospitality.

A crooked tax collector. How original. We can certainly relay that back to who sent us, I likely would have done the same in your position. Still, it would be best if we could find Kyle. Is there anyone in town who might know what direction he headed?

Sense motive on the mayor's account: 1d20 ⇒ 1 ahahaha

Hmm, he seems genuine enough. She looks to the faces of her companions for any different indications.

I suppose if the collectors did not come for many years there was little recourse for you. We're just glad there aren't bigger or worse reasons hanging over the town. So, do you know if any other townsfolk may have seen Kyle on his way out?

Let's see if we can get him to speak "inside" or here first. I suspect he'll have to put on a show once they all get to the festival and be less honest.

You notice her usual coldness thaws just a little as she takes on a warm, approachable demeanor.

With our hands to help, the last minute preparations will go much faster! More specifically... our topic is one you might want to take indoors anyway. Here me out completely, but while we were sent here to check on why this town hasn't been paying its taxes we're more immediately concerned with any duress that this town is under, that we could perhaps help solve!

To move us along unless there's something else to address here.

I have so many questions about these pet stirges... but, I will resist for now. We will go see the mayor. Thank you for your time.

Nilah braces herself to see more of the creatures in town. She turns back to her companions adding It would be good to catch him for questioning before he joins the larger crowds.

Nilah looks shocked that any humanoid is showing affection to such an insect.

Won't it... turn on you at some point? How can you be sure?

Just to be safe she merely tries to incapacitate it (temporarily).

Nilah likewise emerges from the bog swatting at pests, and thoroughly agitated and aggravated.

Finally! Civilization. These folk must enjoy distance from other communities by putting this wall of insects between themselves and others!

Nilah frowns a bit at the vagaries of the assignment, but ultimately shrugs and submits to starting it.

I suppose the best thing would be to just go check in on them.

Nilah's eyes narrow during the briefing. Reflexively, it bothers her that the the tax money and the missing person are casually listed together.

Obviously, Elias is the more important objective, no? What if the townsfolk have fallen on particularly hard times and there is good reason for their tax delinquency? Is it acceptable that we might observe and report good reason to forgive some of their back-taxes?

Nilah nervously looks back and forth between the druid adorned in feathers and the tengu. Finally glancing at the dino resting in the corner, she remarks

Well, we certainly are a varied bunch. But then... these are usually the types of groups that surprise me with their skills.

She smiles again at the others, hoping her remarks don't offend any of them.

Nilah chuckles lightly.

No, tails would probably be weird. The others will think it's some abyssal or infernal ritual and we might have answering to do. Hands are fine... no claws.

Nilah smiles back warmly. The presence of another tiefling does provide her with a slight measure of comfort.

A tiefling approaches and looks for a seat in the reception area. The (seemingly) young woman has completely black hair that would disappear into the inky black void that the stars fill. Her skin is a very light red, almost pink as if a red gel had been placed over a lantern as it shined on typical light skin. There are a couple of random places on her body where deep blue veins show through, including on her face. In a few other places she has tattoos of blue-stemmed roses to match and mask those veins. To top all that off are deep red eyes and dark brown horns that betray her Div heritage. Given that her appearance is too extraordinary to pass as anything remotely non-tiefling, she does not bother coiling up or otherwise hiding her tail, that is tipped with barbs.

She sees Bahram and nods. Greetings. I'm Nilah of the blade and the dance.
