Registration

  • we register with the receptionist and head through into the Guildhall
  • in the Guildhall:
  • Pan goes and antagonises Kivia for a bit
    • Notices Juno’s eyes are animalistic
    • Comes back and arm-wrestles Riza (and wins)
  • Fletcher talks to Tiel and Eros; Tiel doesn’t like Paris
    • Says he ran when things got dicey and dragged her with him
    • Tiel is looking for her brother
  • Venus appears and takes Paris out for a chat; Mal follows
    • v: your father won’t be here to see you off
    • p: same as last time
    • v: most divers don’t last two months; you’re a hero; you saved a comrade
    • p: I won’t fail this time
    • v: encouraging pep talk (← Mal rolled a 5 on insight)
  • Cassiopeia arrives late
  • We’re all taken into Venus’s office
  • There’s a canvas in the corner - a painting of the team:)

Debrief

  • The void is hundreds of km down
  • The most dangerous thing is upward motion: even jumping is enough to give you a migraine, and trying to travel back up the levels can be fatal, especially lower down
  • Wrap up business on one level before descending, and if you have to go back up, take it slow
  • The first and second levels have base camps with permanent residents

Shopping!

Smith

  • Mal buys a short sword of warning
  • The smith has a dagger of vengeance that she doesn’t take
  • Fugue buys a shield
  • Pan sells off their old armour/longsword/shield

Apothecary

  • We buy some healing potions, Fletcher wants to talk to the Guildmaster
  • We all troop upstairs and barge into Sebastian’s office:)
  • Fletcher:
    1. Why is Cass going down?
      1. Weird look in his eye - like there’s a gap there, something missing
      2. Cassie asked to dive, so he trained her for a year and now she’s diving
      3. Fletcher: it wasn’t meant to be me.
    2. Did you know Renoir’s younger son is going back down?
      1. I didn’t take notes on this bit:(
    3. We need to talk.
  • Sebastian is fucking (?there’s A Relationship There) Lord Renoir
  • He had Rion (sp?) murdered - he all but admits this
  • Sebastian threatens Fletcher’s family, and she gets hostile (understandable)
  • Mal and Pan wade in, suggesting to Sebastian that Fletcher isn’t the only one with a grudge against him
  • Rion was supposed to go down the hole, not Fletcher; now they’re dead, and Fletcher is going down. Vera is somewhere.

Other Business

  • Mal leaves Shiax the rest of her money

Snooping:)

Reminders

  • Ask about the contact who was looking for Voidstuff
  • Should be getting a description of the previous expedition’s reports
  • Mal goes through Venus’s desk and finds a lot of documents, including a ledger with a bookmarked page detailing supplies from the apothecary’s guild
    • underlined is the entry for Void Matter, a vial of which has gone missing
  • She gets into the personal office, where she finds a Cube (hashtag mycube)
  • She meets some researchers & gets some information about the void:
    1. It moves around - maps need to be updated constantly
    2. The first layer is like the Underdark, with fucked up spiders
    3. Magic transportation doesn’t work; no portals to the Abyss, no teleporting out
    4. The second layer is forested, with weird dragons (dinosaurs)
    5. They’re theorising that the third level is like the Frostfell
    6. The idea is that it’s a series of different worlds stacked on top of each other
    7. Sentient beings are affected worse by the anti-upward motion field; it has an affect on the mind
      1. Other beings are still affected, but less badly
      2. When the divers returned, they did so by taking advantage of the raids on Luden, when the effect seems to be temporarily lifted to allow the void creatures to leave the hole

Renoir Visit

  • Pan and Fugue visit Renoir:)
  • Fugue gets them in - he’s a friend of Lady Ameliance
    • “I helped her with her grief”
  • Lord Renoir appears
  • Pan tells him about Sebastian’s involvement in his eldest son’s death; he doesn’t want to believe them, but they’ve planted the seed
  • Fugue says Lady Ameliance is safe - this upsets Renoir
  • Lady Ameliance has forgotten her grief; Fugue offers Renoir the same

Fletcher’s Family

  • Fletcher visits Ruth and Eva, her mothers
  • They’re a cute family
  • She tells them about Rion’s murder
  • She tells them she went through Sebastian’s things and found discrepancies in his invoices, as well as:
    • a ring: connected to the crownsguard, it’s a big diamond ring
    • a vial of black goo (voidstuff!)
  • She Detect Magics it, it’s definitely magic; she Identifies it, gets description from El tomorrow:)

Return to Guildhall

  • Vera’s waiting for Fletcher outside the Guildhall
  • Fletcher warns her about Sebastian
  • Vera gives her a sample from Rion’s body
    • They discuss the poison; Rion knew poisons, they theorise that it was something from down in the hole
    • Mal is connecting dots
  • Everyone goes to bed yayyyy
