Ugly Harpy

📜Elistheren

Eldolan provides many opportunities for scholarship and conversions- and I'm focusing on the latter. It's many days of very little activity before I find a candidate to be initiated into the faith of Epthis.

🐾 Kaelon

Qistis and Steinar spent some time eves dropping while Elistheren and I relaxed. Steinar abruptly got up and followed the 'cult' members they were spying on. I offered to help him with the tracking - as he was a tad conspicuous.

Steinar

'With beer and mead and a busty wench

the adventures sat at the tavern bench.

Why search for a quest upon high and low

when drunk travelers will show you where to go!'

Market Square

📜Elistheren

Rats. Did you know that there is a cult on the island of V'ktar that actually worships rats, and even uses rats in their version of a burial ceremony? Fortunately for everyone, that cult isn't here.

🌲 Qistis

...

Steinar

'Lo' and look onto ye, squallering peasants beneath the might of the gods. For king and queen shall be reduced to beggar under the rot and decay of their material good. The insurmountable audacity of man shall be met with with plagues of vermin and rats which will devour everything you think you hold dear.'

Sermon of Loss from the pages of Vanderon

Sewers

📜Elistheren

Crawling through the sewers is both unpleasant, but also nostalgic. Damp, dank, caves are terrible for preserving history, yet that was still how I first learned of the Spider Queen. These caves are a bit danker, a bit smellier, and a bit more inhabited by horrid creatures. And now unfamiliar religions to be found.

Steinar

' ... [A] form unlike any other. Flesh melted, yet clung like sap on a late winter's tree. Oozing maws and pseudopods erupted from the creatures frame. It swing its arms wildly and where the mouth once was frothed forth millions of bubbles. Once can only imagine the unearthly scream it was trying to produce.

This was no longer Jacob. This... this thing. I have no words for it. I can only define it by what it isn't, and that definitely isn't "friend." '
