And then the Fires Started

It was a windy day when they rolled into Ux Quorath, after seeing the bank was closed for safety inspections they spent the night at the inn and headed to the market in the morning. Yellow martian nomads were selling mammoth ivory by the cartload. And so the barons gathered supplies.

Caulder bought the most exotic looking clothes he can and a nice sword, and some very light fuel hoping to some day convince a rube this is a magic sword. Amyl bought many weapons, giving her old ones to an urchin girl, and buying supplies to make flaming arrows, whistling arrows, and a bullroarer. Drash bought some banded mail armor.

Mekinimini spent a week bunkered down copying the spell scroll to her tome, learning The Great Galvatic gesticulation of The Electron Sovereign, Roddy kept her company, making sure she didn’t go too mad holed up in her room.

On the false summer night of the end of the week they were awoken. Screams echoed through the spires of Ux Quorath, smoke began to rise from the temple. The barons descended and saw the makings of a blood bath nearly a hundred red robed figures all armed with swords were descending, a slaughter was soon to begin.
