===== Debrief ===== | ===== Debrief ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Lakhesis defeated, our investigators finally get a chance to quiz Vollux; | ||
+ | * Zosime and Iri discover that an ex-Commissioner friend of Vollux made the swan... but Vollux won't reveal their identity, insisting that he promised to keep it a secret; | ||
+ | * Vollux reiterates the choice on the table: they can interfere with his work and cause the death of their employer, or they can help him to save Spiridon at the cost of his own life; | ||
+ | * Against Vollux's better judgement, Florian and Quinn Alders decide to try for a 'third way', hoping to save both of them: | ||
+ | * Quinn Alders destabilises the tunnels to power the binding ritual; | ||
+ | * They gain a sense of the strand of Erosion connecting Spiridon and Vollux - it's like a writhing snake, or a river that keeps changing its course incredibly fast; | ||
+ | * Florian enters a berserker state to destroy one end of the stream, while his comrades cut the other end; | ||
+ | * They are able to detect the Erosion stream lashing out in all directions as it runs dry; | ||
+ | * Vollux falls exhausted, and there's an ominous rumble from overhead - but it seems like the ritual has worked.... | ||
+ | * The swan hisses urgently, as the tunnels Quinn Alders destabilised begin to collapse around them; | ||
+ | * They take the getaway swan, carrying an unconscious Vollux with them. | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Back at the Argyris estate, Spiridon is sitting up and seems much better; | ||
+ | * He and Egmont are hugely impressed with the investigators; | ||
+ | * Silas is pissed, while Coralia seems relieved; | ||
+ | * Iri gives everyone Rod paladin feedback forms to fill in. | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Zosime takes the swan to the Commission; | ||
+ | * She is unfazed to discover her father in a hot tub with another high-ranking commissioner; | ||
+ | * Master Commissioner Draconis is delighted with the "bloody big duck", using it to accessorise the hot tub; | ||
+ | * Vollux, who continues to refuse to reveal the identity of his rogue ichorwerker friend, gets Taken Away. | ||
+ | |||
+ | * The Forest Touched get a debrief and (in Sowe's case) a talking to from Averick; | ||
+ | * Sowe is warned and the arm tagged. She is asked to report back if anything changes with it; | ||
+ | * Quinn Marshton is thanked for preventing things from going too badly wrong; | ||
+ | * Averick suggests that she speak with Marius and Heston, and to Jeremiah Stinglehelm and King Crescentius, about 'cures' for Forest touched. | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Doublethink goes on a date with Blimkins the butler; | ||
+ | * It goes well; | ||
+ | * Blimkins momentarily pings as a Shroud Paladin, just so that Doublethink can notice. | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Later, our heroes hear some troubling news. At about the time that the ritual went off, over forty people - most of them sick or elderly - died, including Zara, a much respected dowager of House Rom. | ||
