Rolen was a bit relieved when Torgun agreed to do the sketching and was more than willing to lend his helm. "Truth be told, I learned to write so that I can write down my plays. I'm more of a verbal type. Where this ritual a complex Ballad, I would have no problems with it."

Book It
left-aligned image

Walton nods at Torgrun’s announcement, then waits just a few seconds for the dwarf to prepare himself. Walton pushes some writing materials into Torgrun’s hands and begins quickly describing the modification to the first symbols. Then the wizard immediately returns to his own work. As Walton warned, the two continue this way for hours, flipping the pages back and forth and trying to stay out of each other’s way. The other four eventually slip out of the room for more comfortable surroundings in which to wait.

Finally, Torgrun emerges, holding papers, to report that his part is done and Walton seems to be finishing up. Walton is only several minutes behind. The wizard leads them back into his room, where the floor is now covered with runes and unlit candles, in two sets. “It is done,” he says, “that is, it is prepared.” He holds out Izim’s book. “You may return this, if you must.”

Honeysuckle
left-aligned image


Honeysuckle pondered the wizard's words a while...return this, if you must... Must they? If? Was Walton hinting that they didn't have to? That the must of doing was in fact only hypothetical. Perhaps they could keep hold of the book....if...must...if....Honeyusckle shook the thoughts from his head. They clearly werent his own. Not in a million years would he even think the word hypothetical. What did that mean anyway...hypo...hi-po.
"Hi...po...Hippo...Hippo Fan...HiPo..." he continued to mutter. ...huh?...oh...ummmm...yes. let's return the book. It's not a Hippo Fan Icicle..."

Rikke Skyhammer
right-aligned image
Muttering a small prayer to Vergadain, thanking him that the waiting was finally over, Rikke hopped out of her chair and followed Walton back to his room. She wasn’t quite sure what to make of the runes, but they certainly looked magical, and that would have to be good enough. Walton seemed like he knew what he was doing, now it was going to be up to them.

”Good idea,” she said in agreement with Honeysuckle, while gesturing at the book in question. ”Best not to owe anything to a tricksy guy like.”

Torgrun Stonethrower - Hill Dwarf Druid(Sheet) (XP and Loot)
right-aligned image


Torgrun took the quill in one hand and dipped it in the inkwell and started drawing onto the parchment trying to copy precisely the runes and symbols from the book, being careful to change the square shaped symbol to a hexagon along with a myriad of other minor alterations that Walton had instructed. The magical helm made the process easier being able to actually read the instructions in the book as he was transcribing them although in some parts the language was a bit vague, like those instruction manuals for assembling furniture. Thankfully he didn't have to deal with any missing parts. After several hours of intense concentration, Torgrun was finally finished. He was never known for his penmanship, but everything looked legible to him, and hopefully he managed to make all the necessary alterations that Walton had instructed correctly.

"Aye, I be finished. Appreciate the help Walton," said Torgrun wiping the sweet from his brow. Then nodding to the others as he picked up the book he said, "Aye, let's be returnin' her ta ole Izzy. Hopefully we be finally done with her." Standing up and stretching his stubby legs, Torgrun made a point to gather up all the chalk and ashes and other ingredients needed for the return trip and followed the others out to return the tome to Izzy.

" Hopefully we be finally done with her.""Torgurn finished. Rolen shook his head with a grimace, "I doubt we are as easily finished with either book or Izim. Izim appears to be the type who is just too useful for adventurers. Also, my experience is that once you start picking up extra-planar enemies, it never stops. We may get Miss Ignisora, but likely there is someone behind her, a friend of hers, or an ally that will be upset at her capture."

Well, shite. The Norseman thought as he guessed the truth behind Rolen's words. "Yeah, remember when I'd said there's probably a Yugoloth somehere in it? Well, it's common enough for a succubus to serve one, but they're almost the only type of master that a barghest serves, at least according to that tome I read when researching them. I feel like maybe they are both lieutenants to a more powerful being and - as Rolen says - one that won't be happy about losing them."

Turning to Brimley, "again, you have my promise to bring you something interesting if we run across it. Do you have enough of the materials on hand needed to make our gate that you could gift or sell us? If not, please tell us where we might stop to procure them. What did we use here; chalk, ash, blood, and candles? I suppose we'll be bringing our own blood with us - no sense carrying it outside of our bodies. What about the other stuff?"

Book It
left-aligned image

Walton's eyes pass slowly over Torgrun. "I believe your dwarven companion has found everything that you need for the ritual," he says dryly. "I have little of value to say regarding the manner in which you equip yourselves otherwise; you are the expert adventurers. If you survive and perform the ritual correctly exactly eight hours from your departure, we should successfully recall you to this room."

Repeat Customers
left-aligned image

Back at Izim’s, the dealer expresses his pleasure in seeing the party again. “Here you are,” he observes, “finally. I did not expect sus-pense at this stage of proceeeedings.” Birch is present, of course, but the halfling sanguinist is nowhere to be seen.

Izim receives the book. “I hope that it served your pur-pos-es,” he says, “and that this will as well.” Izim offers the jewelry piece the party noticed on their last visit. “This piece,” he explains, “will bind a creature to the current plaaaane. Once you have cap-tured her in these manacles, you will have her within your grasp in-de-fi-nite-ly.”

OOCPausing for any questions for him, and if not, any more preparations, before we send them on their way. Note: Rikke will have to summon Baern at the destination, since he can’t fit into the ritual space with the party.

Rikke Skyhammer
right-aligned image
With little thought for decorum or consequence, Rikke steps closer and snatches up the offered chain. Lifting the chain up in the air, she inspects it as though she has some idea of what to look for before lowering it and letting it pile up in her hand before setting the clasps on top. She looks at it skeptically and dumps it into the other hand, before turning to Izim with the same look, ”You sure it’ll do the job? Sure wouldn’t want to have her get loose.”

Izim turns his usual very slightly smile in Rikke's direction. "I have ev-e-ry confidence," he tells her, "that this pieeeece will perform its intended function."

Honeysuckle

Honeysuckle sheepishly scratches the back of his head while addressing Izim's shoes.
"Um....I was wondering...and if you have it....cos you have so many nice things....and we'd bring it back straight afterwards...+2 persuasionif you have anything to protect from being charmed?...I think succubus like to charm...and I was charmed before, and it wasn't nice. So it would really help if you have something like that...we'd take good care of it. Promise!"

The corners of Izim's mouth suddenly lose their upturn. "We have made a deal," he says succinctly. "If you wish to ne-go-ti-ate anotherrrr one, what of value do you offer?"

Honeysuckle feels theall the eyes in the room turn to him and he suddenly feels like a calf in a wolf's jaw.
"Um...one magic item for another? I leave driftglobe as security. Exchange back after. Please...I don't want to be charmed again."

"No," Izim says gently, "that will not work. I can provide you certain pro-tec-tions, but only as a service, or perhaps an expennnndable item. There would be nothing to return to me, even were I willing to issue a loan. In exchange for your globe, I would be willing to provide you the means of protecting two of you from the charms of fieeeends, but only for a lim-i-ted time."

Rolen asked Izim, "Does this chain come with an owner's manual? How do we get it on the Succubus, and what does it do once she has it on?"

Rolen clapped Honeysuckle on the back, "No worries big guy. I got your back and you have mine. Just say the word and I'll put up a spell that will prevent you from being charmed. You just need to lay into the Succubus and her minions, because if I get hit, I might lose my concentration on the spell."

Rolen checked that his staff of the Adder was firmly in its sheath and yet easily drawn. He donned his shield and told the group, "Let's get back to Walton's place. I'm ready to clap that Succubus in Irons."
