{{OneTusk}}: Mahakala is an alien land… and yet disturbingly familiar. Riven with class distinctions, it reminds me of Arkstone, oh so long ago. But we're not here to interfere, and if a few pamphlets accidentally enter circulation… well, it's an accident.

{{Ehsan}}: Finally...home... Even with only being gone two years it has already changed so much. There is tension in the air that is harder to feel if you are not from here due to the sudden closing of the boarders. While home was not always so open as it was when I left, the country did resume trade while I was a child. This shift in the air is just barely there, but the people know there is something wrong.
 
These government officials....I swear I will kill them all. Days in port and now more waiting! Ridiculous! My birthmark and scales should be proof enough to let us through, but no! Apparently they're "tattoos"! Surely this is my mother's doing. Likely wanting to keep me away from father for as long as possible so that he will be so far into his illness that he will not recognize me. I cannot let my anger show in the palace when we eventually arrive. I must be the model daughter and see to my father's side. It is the least I could do. I do not want to distress my father in his already delicate state.

Exploring the City of Mahakala

🎲 DM: Details of the city:

  • Shoulder-to-shoulder crowded
  • Larger than Lisway
  • On the outskirts of town there is a hole that is deeper than anyone has explored
  • The Forbidden Palace, where only the upper class may visit
  • There is a small population of rodent Wildbloods who eke out a living by remaining hidden.
  • Largest population of Dragonkin that the party has seen—about 10% of the city.
  • There are big public gardens that feature a Path of the King, that has statues of all the leaders of Mahakala.

🏹 Ehsan: Finally...home... Even with only being gone two years it has already changed so much. There is tension in the air that is harder to feel if you are not from here due to the sudden closing of the boarders. While home was not always so open as it was when I left, the country did resume trade while I was a child. This shift in the air is just barely there, but the people know there is something wrong.

These government officials....I swear I will kill them all. Days in port and now more waiting! Ridiculous! My birthmark and scales should be proof enough to let us through, but no! Apparently they're "tattoos"! Surely this is my mother's doing. Likely wanting to keep me away from father for as long as possible so that he will be so far into his illness that he will not recognize me.
