Episode III
BAUBLES IN THE DEEP
Proven to be worthy, the prisoners of the SPECTRUM seek assistance from the CAT LORD to retrieve a necklace and gain her favor in order to access to more of the BEASTLANDS.
The EXANDRIA FIVE are also making progress through uncovering the mysteries of the valley, including a bottle with a ship in it and earning the trust of some local elements to the PROWL.
Meanwhile, groups throughout the multiverse are left reeling by the effects of the ESCHATON, even as some see an opportunity to force their vision of how things should be across all of existence...
Camera comes up on party in the Trial of the moon… Yucca bleeding out on the floor. There are 5 normal blue moonstones, and one red one on the altar. Yucca is healed and the stones are examined, when the manacles begin to pull again… however, the party realizes they can resist the pull of the manacles and they do.
Returning to the Cat Lord, the party presents the moonstones and is granted potions of water breathing to help them retrieve the Emerald Eye from the grotto behind the waterfall. They take a (VERY) short rest and then go to the waterfall.
At the grotto, the party encounters Ayo and her crew. A race to the emerald eye is agreed upon. After making arrangements the party enters the waters and advances through the grotto, experiencing strange glowing grasses, dangerous landslides, and a swarm of quippers that kills 44 before being destroyed by the party. Yucca, landing the last blow, falls victim to an effect of the Beastlands, and becomes the destroyed animal.
In the next chamber a massive glowing shark awaited with a magical spear and the Emerald Eye on its side. Cleverly avoiding direct confrontation, the party retrieved both, and while there was hints of a secret on the far side of the chamber, the party decided it was in no shape to face the shark and turned back.
Turning over the Emerald Eye to the Cat Lord, the party received medals indicating the favor of the Cat Lord, that should grant access to all areas of the Prowl.
