Session 99: TruthKey Points:* The party defeat Damian.
* Night's Peace learns Arcaito's true name. Recap:The party has only moments to react as the ground shakes around them and the sixteen feytouched drow glide back to form a perimeter. Meallan casts Mage Armour on himself, while Kieran reloads his revolver. Khamet casts a protective ward on Meallan. Tally moves to join Lucy, reasoning that Arcaito doesn't want to hurt her and so this should be a safe move.
A hole forms in the ground, sucking in trees, dirt, boulders, and anything else in the vicinity. Meallan falls into it, but casts a spell and is able to fly free. The party and Lucy start fleeing the area.
Damian finally makes an appearance, firing on Kieran from a distance. However, the lone gunslinger is no match for the party, who soon bring him to his knees.
Khamet puts the heavily injured Damian to sleep with magic and the party tie him up. Umdias wants to eat him, but the party quickly shut that down. They learn that Damian was Lucy's childhood friend. She is understandably annoyed that he sold her out to Arcaito- especially after she saved his life all those years ago! As the daughter of a powerful flame witch, Lucy has incredible magical potential that would have served Arcaito well.
Kieran explains that Damian is a rogue agent of the Extratemporal Bureau, and that he needs to be sent back for punishment. Not all of the party are convinced: Tally would rather hand him over to Night's Peace, who she finds infinitely preferable to the bureau. The party decide that their first step is to make it out of the Grasping Woods, before whatever remains of Arcaito cottons on to what they are up to. Bark and two other feytouched drow opt to leave with them.
As they leave, vines try to pull Tally and Khamet back inside the woods, but to no avail. The portal closes, and the party now stands in the very ordinary forest near Riverside. They want to talk to Night's Peace, but have no idea how to reach her. Khamet draws a picture of her and holds it up, while Meallan focuses on the lingering traces of the bond she once offered him and Basil reaches out with his thoughts to locate her. After two hours she steps out from behind a tree.
It turns out it's been a week on the material plane since the party entered the Grasping Woods. While they discuss what to do with Damian, Night's Peace learns that Khamet knows Arcaito's true name. She immediately hones in on this fact, and asks if he will teach it to her. They join hands, a current of energy runs between them, and Night's Peace's eyes shine as she learns the name of her greatest enemy.
Khamet asks how he can contact Night's Peace, if they need to talk about Damian or Arcaito or anything else. With Khamet and his pet mouse's permission, she takes the mouse into her hands. He turns in place and his coat turns to black, shimmering night. Now should Khamet ever need her, he can contact her through the mouse.
Unable to agree on what to do with Damian, and with the evening drawing on, the party opt to spend the night in Riverside before making a decision with rested minds.

Session 100: JuniperKey Points:*The party face Juniper.
*The party meet Junior. Recap Proper: In their shared dreams, Tally asks the Shadow Queen what they should do with Damian. The Shadow Queen is confused as to why Tally doesn't just kill him for his insolence.
Tally suddenly remembers why she doesn't take advice from the Shadow Queen.
The disasters wake on the 19th of Jewel. Upon learning that Damian is not some noble freedom fighter, just a petty and selfish dude after a quick score, she allows Kieran to take him back to the bureau. Lucy accompanies him and, at the party's request, Kieran agrees to put in a good word for Tenacity so she can be reinstated and have another go at acquiring her full timekeeper's license.
The party discuss freeing Jezerine as they head south. Meallan is alarmed by the idea. A fiend, even a cambion, being set loose on the world does not sit right with him. Speaking of fiends: Khamet helps Wisp compose a letter to Pahra, asking to meet him in Valdrona some time. Khamet makes plans to travel there with Wisp once they are finished in Eaine.
Unfortunately for the party, fiends are not the worst of their problems right now. They discover Juniper and some strangers standing over an unconscious teenager. In the battle that ensues, Juniper transforms herself into a vortex of fire. While her powers have grown since their last encounter, the party have grown too, and she quickly realises she is fighting a losing battle. Juniper turns into a giant bird to fly away, but is quickly brought down by the party. Injured and back in her halfling form, she touches her hand to a massive tree and vanishes inside.
Khamet, recognising a Tree Stride spell when he sees it, wants to burn down the forest to flush Juniper out. He is quickly brought to his senses when they remind him that burning down forests is Juniper's thing, and the party cannot sink to her level. Ultimately Tally puts out the various small fires started by Juniper's elemental form, and the party tend to the injured young man.
He is a young man, partially draconic, with a strange golden scar across one side of his face. The first thing he says when he opens his eyes?
"Wow. Dude. Dad is so gonna kill me."
