Two days until next EuroAtlantis! See you folks very soon.
It'll be a bit of a shorter session as I need to work that day. This will be true for a few Sundays (my time) in a row, and so after this week we probably won't have another game for a month or so, so that I don't run myself ragged.

Session 94: Names Learned!Inandros (he/him): Selwyn and Kieran startled this centaur by appearing out of mid air in front of him in the middle of the night. Selwyn later went on a fruity tea date with him, and Inandros gave Selwyn's a chaste kiss goodbye on the hand.
Olibrius (he/him): giant cyclops. Fascinated by Selwyn the 'pretty pony.'
Axit (they/them): a figure so covered by their attire that all that can be seen of them is the tip of their pointed nose. When asked, Axit revealed that mortals would call them a 'darkling.' The sunlight is very bad for them. While they were born a night fey, they didn't believe that was right for them and they now serve as a forest fey under Lord Arcaito. To show they meant no ill will, after a amicable conversation with Amani Axit gave the young sorcerer a precious stone to further fortify them against fey magic.
Cadual (he/him): hunched fey, a little shorter than Amani. Has met some humans. Explained that the mushroom ring he, Axit and Braxley were looking for was to fey what a day spa is to humans.
Braxley (he/they): a bird-like fey with the face and lank ginger hair of a human. Loves to chat. Sometimes rides around on Olibrius' shoulder.

Session 95: Names Learned!
Damian Hyde (he/him): human man allied with Arcaito for some reason or other. Hasn't left the Grasping Woods since Fawn and Moth met him. They do not like his voice or his tendency to mutter to himself. He is also Kieran's current mark.
Dantel (he/him): Tally's older brother. Tally was able to speak to him in a dream. He was shocked by their new tattoo and their short hair! Dantel's partner has had him stay inside after recent events, and he has only a vague idea of what is going on. He promised Tally he would talk with his partner about whether they should stay or leave.
Fawn: a minor fey who resembles a pink deer-like humanoid.
Kazentine: a fey aligned with Arcaito who knows more about his plans and activities than Moth and Fawn. The latter agreed to take the party to Kazentine in exchange for their freedom.
Moth: a minor fey who resembles a tall, gangly blue humanoid with wings.
Tavriel (he/him): a guard who agreed to teach Khamet and Umdias how to hunt.

The winner of the best fiend poll is...Will! Well deserved win for our cookie-loving boy.
Pirate/Bead and Blossom tied for second place.
Our next poll is fey themed! Fey of all kinds strut the catwalk- who will be the most glamorous, the most captivating? Who will be...Eaine's next top fey!

Session 93: Centaurs Lost and Found
Key Notes*Kieran and Selwyn vanish into thin air.
*The party learn Kieran is some kind of artificially constructed being.
*Flatville is founded.
*The party encounter Umdias the forest giant.
*Iracina tries to flee. After a heartfelt talk the party let her go.
Recap Proper
The party rest and drink tea with Alva and Fate. Basil, who has been off in his own little world, suddenly realises that Tally is different. She has...long hair!
Basil is excited by her magical haircut powers.
Khamet talks to Alva about the feytouched elves, formerly part of Crezonis’ band. He tells them how to contact Vaan, Volan and Ovineri in Evertemple should the feytouched regain their senses of self and wish to reconnect with old allies. Alva agrees to pass on this information, and the disasters and the two otherworldly women part ways.
Kieran marches impatiently out of the room ahead of the others, his long coat trailing dramatically behind him. Selwyn hurries to check on him. Suddenly, both of them disappear into thin air.
The party are worried for their friends. Fate irritably grumbles that ‘the construct’ has been meddling with time, which is something one should never do. She is surprised to learn that they didn’t know Kieran is a construct: Fate can sense that his blood isn’t blood, and he has no heartbeat.
With no idea how to find Kieran and Selwyn again, the party continue on their way. They pass a handsome young lumberjack with an axe slung over one shoulder. He nods politely to the party and continues on his way.
The party eventually stop to make camp for the night. Khamet creates a flag with a sun on it to stick at the edge of the little group of tents, to declare that the newly named ‘Flatville’ is civilised, in an attempt to ward off the chaos-loving fey. After some time eating, chatting and winding down, the party settle in for the night. Basil takes first watch. His watch is very uneventful.
The same cannot be said for Khamet’s watch, which comes second. A giant green humanoid seizes him and tries to drag him away. Khamet fights back, the giant quickly realising he is outmatched. The creature- a forest giant, the party quickly learn- attempts to bargain for his life.
Khamet decides that he will teach this giant not to eat people, just like he did Ruhnzolarr. He learns that the giant’s name is Umdias. The party are used to Khamet’s antics and decide to let him carry on with his pet project for now. Those who were woken in the kerfuffle gradually return to sleep.
Tally dreams of the Shadow Queen once more. The goddess doesn’t make for particularly good company, so Tally works on her stances and physical conditioning. Might as well make the most of being stuck in this weird scenario!
It is during this time also that Iracina flees the camp. When they realise this; Basil, Tally and Khamet pursue her across the plains. An argument ensues: Iracina is determined to go home, but Khamet insists it isn’t safe for her. Eventually Khamet backs down. Iracina is clearly surprised when he relents. It is this act of letting her go that finally gets through to her and helps her realise he cared about her wellbeing all along.
Basil gives Iracina the dream ring linked to Meallan, so she can contact him if she is ever in trouble. After a moment’s thought, a letter is drafted for Meallan, so that he won’t be caught completely off guard if this unfamiliar drow woman turns up in his dreams. Khamet makes Iracina a pamphlet. It is dominated by a picture of Iracina happy in the Underdark and the party happy above, with a tree connecting them from root to branch.
Tally tells Iracina that on the surface it’s okay to ask for help. It’s not seen as a horrible failing as it is in the Underdark. Iracina thanks the party and continues east, bound eventually for the tunnels that can return her to her underground home.
The sun eventually rises on the 10th of Jewel. Umdias, eager to please, shows that he can freeze food for the party. As the party continue on towards the centaurs, they pass an owlbear with its eggs. This is used to explain farming to Umdias: eat just some of each generation and there will always be plenty of food! Umdias is intrigued by the concept of farming, although who knows how tenable the idea would really be in his forest home.
The party soon arrive at the centaur waystation. Here they are excitedly greeted by Myderion, who is training two teenage centaurs in her role. When she learns they wish to visit the Plutonei, she asks one of them, a boy called Roito, to guide the party there. Roito obliges and before long the party arrive at the Plutonei camp.
Plutonea greets the party, and asks them to accompany her and a small group on a hunt. They hunt deer, obtaining hides for the centaurs, and meat for the party’s next meals. After all this the party are exhausted. They settle in with the Plutonei for the night. Still, thoughts of Kieran and Selwyn play on their minds. When will they see their friends again?
