Session 15

• The wolf hunters will come back in the evening with Carlos and will be expecting the rest of their payment
  • They also have news of Ismark in Barovia Village, a letter to Ireena
• Izek needs to tell Elora about their childhood
  • he may say they need to go meet Vargas
• Ireena has left some items with Dr Velasco or Danika Martikov because she had a bad feeling of what might happen to her
  • needlepoint she'd done for each of the PCs:
    • a cross for Pelanil
    • a rock donkey for Bardolf
    • a butt flute for Shalooti
    • a pride flag for Anakir (she must have made it right after the toy store)
    • Elora's is the most striking, showing obvious skill. She must have worked for hours on this
      • It's a detailed portrait of Elora, tail included, and even prominent. And in this depiction, the tail is very ornate and quite beautiful.
      • When handed the cross-stitch, you see there is a note on the back:
        • "Never be ashamed of who you are"
  • Danika and Urwin emphasize to the party that Ireena is likely lost, and if they wish to save her, they need more power and/or allies
    • Maybe they come out as The Order
      • If the party questions their advice, they can take them to the secret room upstairs and tell convince them they're right because of all the spies and intel they have
    • They can also tell them that the Mad Mage is probably who they're looking for
• After the Feast, the town is on high alert
  • put a session or two in between the feast and the festival

Ismark's Letter

My dearest sister, life has become more difficult these days since your leaving. With father's death now publicly known, I've stepped up to fill the role of Burgomaster. But the villagers reject me. They refuse to be led by "The Lesser".

I know that you would have been a better leader, Ireena. I just wish I had your political prowess.

Since yesterday, there seems to have been an outbreak of some new disease. More than half the town have taken to shuffling through the streets like the undead. They all sweat profusely and seem to shake uncontrollably. I've even seen some fall in the streets with seizures. Paranoia and confusion reign. Please send advice.

Yours, Ismark

• He starts with the bones
• He says what he needs to
• He takes off with Ireena

• Play the mini game
• destroy some of the buildings and kill some of the NPCs
