| + | ===== Summary ===== | ||
| + | *The party find that the waters of the southern ocean contain murderous erosion-touched fishfolk | ||
| + | *The party discover that the False Empire is attempting to prevent access into the forest. It doesn't seem like they really have the manpower to make this more than a notional effort. | ||
| + | *Dangerous wild animals still live in the forest. | ||
| + | *The avatars of the forest will offer to bear people through its depths in exchange for additional service in the Dream War. The exception is those who have been touched by Outsiders who are still subject to considerable (though not unreasoning) hostility. | ||
| + | *James agrees to take on the burden of deciding what should be done about Candle, the forest binding his life to the task. It appears that the forest has a preference now for letting people handle such affairs so that it can maintain its full concentration on battling the godlike entities Outside. | ||
| + | *The City of Sutalin is at the centre of two great rituals- one a withering Erosion effect intended to drive back and destroy the forest. The other a protective gem of Perfection intended to preserve the city from the ravages of unleashed erosion. | ||
| + | *It appears that both rituals were somewhat flawed- the Erosion effect has driven the forest back some distance from the city but is also causing the manifestation of hostile denizens in the vicinity. The Perfection spell does seem to have physically preserved the city but the mortal inhabitants don't seem to have been completely shielded and have spent the following centuries experiencing death of the mind even as their bodies remain untouched. | ||
| + | *The Philosophy of Seluga have already arrived at the city and set up a camp outside the 'death-zone'. They are using erosion empowered mole creatures to excavate tunnels through the city and posting members of a penal legion to protect the entrance. Their scholars employ some sort of Perfection based protections to briefly weather exposure to the Erosion within the city. | ||
| + | * Jades discovers that the 'gem' around the city is suffused with the screaming, mad ghosts of the citizens and touching it is mentally hazardous. | ||
| + | *Candle and James cooperate to attempt to shunt the erosive effects down his link to a Mysterious Touchstone. The Magos stirs at the connection and *something* flows back into James. | ||
| + | *The party prevent one of the Selugan field team from destroying the city in order to free the inhabitants from their ancient agonies. | ||
| + | *The Selegan scholars claim to have been briefed about the possibility of a Rastabani expedition and offer hospitality at their camp. | ||

| Whilst James and Jade run for the forest, Candle trots up to the Selugan camp. Much to everyone's suprise the Selugan's don't try to kidnap her, instead furnishing her with a new sword and diplomatic papers to take back to Rastaban. | Whilst James and Jade run for the forest, Candle trots up to the Selugan camp.
