Score: 218 | 05/31/20 |
8/8/42 Aper Tertius
The group wake up, feeling refreshed. The cult offers to wash their clothes.
The group are invited to the dining hall where they are fed. Batthu attempts to learn the cult's sign language with some success at the basic words.
They watch a group ritual of water creation, the water seemingly flowing from the temple to fountains in the town. The beautiful dance like ceremony passes quietly but, at it's culmination, Cefesee sees a vision. The earth rumbles and shakes as it feels like it begins to breath. The the south he sees a vision of the first chasm and, over it, the sky splits in to a jagged, canine maw. It seems to laugh before swallowing all light and breath...
Cefesee speaks of this to the group and Isha takes them to her sanctum. Here they discuss it's meaning and she offers them support for their trip back to the chasm, where the Cult of Sabba have been seen. She gives Cefesee 'Maahet's Hand' a powerful wand of healing.
They head outside and tell Idriz the news. She realises that they aren't headed home and points out that this wasn't the agreement. She agrees to stay and is offered part of the loot for her continued work.
They set off and travel over the afternoon.
9/8/42 Aper Tertius
The group reach the chasm in the evening. In the distance they see they are being watched and Tian sneaks off. With the others as a distraction he captures Rak, a young member of the cult of Sabba. She is angry but afer some coaxing gloats that the cult is below. They send her with Idriz to be held until the group returns (with Ama and Glint). The group prepare to journey down the rope ladder.
