"The mind is a doorway...
...one that you can walk through if you wish."
Act 1 - Parasites
- the group looks out over Longville, on top of a hill a few miles out - everyone is working in the fields - Clint and Borodin head to a rock to have overwatch on the town - everyone else(and Borodin again) head into the fields to examine the situation(Donut and Clint lead the way) - the villagers notice them, but don’t reaxt - among the villagers are soldiers, bandits, and other types of people working away - All are very attractive, with extremely lean bodies and beautiful hair - the group moves into the village and meets a beautiful young girl - she actually speaks to them, albeit in a strange tone - apparently her name is Shed(named after the place she was born) - she seems odd - she tells them that her mothwr(the Queen) will be able to talk to them at dinner tonight - she invites to lead them to their quarters - after Shed acting extremely flirtatiously the group convinces Allistair and shed to go in private and become “close friends” - Allistair doesn’t quite get the innuendo, and legitimately thinks he is going to become good friends with Shed - he very quickly understands his mistake and spends the hour chatting with Shed - they come back and Shed seems a little sad but okay - they converse for a bit(it starts to lightly rain) and soon it is dinner time - All the people in the field start heading down to the great hall - Pendragon gets Borodin to make an illusion of him, so that he can explore the town - Allano offers Shed a massage and she accepts - the go off and after the massage Shed kisses Allano, he is now infected - the town hall is piled high with food - the villagers eat voraciously - the “Queen” (a heavily tattooed Norren man) eats at the head of the table - Pendragon doesn’t find much with his search, and Borodin sneaks him back in - they finish the meal and talk with the queen - there is obviously something going on - Shed manages to pull Ses away and kiss her - Pendragon asks Shed to show him the place she was born - they go to the shed, and Shed tries to kiss him, but he escapes and runs across town - the group(just leaving the town hall) start a running too - Borris comes out of nowhere on a horse, get off the horse while it rides away, and runs too - Borodin(the one on the rock) and Clint don’t know what to do, no one is making the signal to fire - everyone is running towards the overwatch rock, followed by Shed - the Queen comes out of the hall, and starts running too, escorted by some other villagers - Cage trips Shed, and picks her up - she is very indignant at this - the villagers and the team face off at the rock - the team confronts Shed and asks her what is going on - she shows them what is under her tongue, a parasite which has burrowed into her throat - the infected(known as Kissers or Double Tongues) start moving in on the party - Clint shoots the top of the Queens head off but it doesn’t seem to phase her - the Kissers converge on Allistair - Clint shoots a few of their arms off but they keep going - Ses tries to kiss him but can’t get to him - Allistair heroically fights them off, until the queen(with only it’s bloody jaw intact) kisses him - the group retreats down the road, the parasites following - they see a large figure seated by the road as they are running - it is Ink! The stone golem - he sees they are in need and tries to calm the situation down - Cage sits Shed down and ties to pull the parasite out, but she lunges up and kisses him - Pendragon, Ink, Borris, Borodin, and Clint retreat - Clint and Pendragon go to Triniton, and Clint goes to meet a Sudari professor(the one coming to speak with Ses about the Richter) - Borris, Ink, and Borodin have a chill party - meanwhile, in Longville, all the infected settle down for the night - but all are woken up by the down of bow twangs, gunshots, and the whirr of kinetic cycles - a group of fighters from almost every nation(including Shae, a Dweller, and all the other nationalities) - they obliterate the infected(shooting them in the mouth) and pull the parasites out of the mouths of Cage, Allistair, Ses Allano, and a few others - they spend the night in shock from the removal of the parasite - they are tended to by the strangers and in the morning they meet with the Shae captain who uses a bow - he is Trollgan, of the Blayist Regiment(a group of pro Shae soldiers, whose main goal is to make the land near New Sanctuary safe) - he saved them on accident but will let them free - he gives them all their stuff, makes sure they have recovered, and sets them on their way - as Clint is scouting the area, he sees the batter foursome wearily walking to Triniton - they all catch up together(and seeing how the town is technically safe) head back to Triniton for their payment Act 2 - Prophets - Triniton is as exciting and musical as always - Clint has a kisser corpse and takes it to Professor Halfstein - professor Halfstein promises to alert the Sudari troops and do some research, - he has never seen anything like it before - Cage goes to see bro Smith, Allano and Ink go to the temple, Pendragon stays with the professor, and everyone else goes to see the steward - Clint gets his 100 marks, but Allistair hears something in the distance - it sounds like a root - as Allano and Ink are in the temple, Brother Rikki arrives(leading a group of fanatic villagers) and begins to butcher the Letrian Brothers - Ink grabs Allano, and bashes through the temple wall, escaping - Sudari troops march in lock step toward the temple square, ahead of them run Telegrad soldiers - Clint cuts a quick deal with the steward, 100 marks for crowd control - in a panic, the steward agrees - three Sudari battle zeppelins circle overhead - the group(minus cage and Ink and Allano) converge on the square - the rioters(led by Brother Rikki) are going crazy and burning down the temple - some people try to escape the temple but are killed, a nobleman trying to run away drops something out of his pocket which Allistair manages to acquire - the Eschleni soldiers get there first and engage the crowd - Brother Rikki stands in front of the crowd and tells the soldiers to give up - they all fire bullets at him but somehow everyone misses - then the crowd charges, and they easily overwhelm them - for the rest of the riot jazz musicians are playing in the background, the music never stops in Triniton - meanwhile the Sudari troops surround the square, setting up machine guns, magic casters, snipers and squadrons of riflemen - with the Eschleni troops dead, the Sudari give the rioters a final warning before they obliterate them - Rikki gives a speech on how Weq will defend them from any harm - while he is talking Clint lands on a root, takes out his special musket, loads in a zerkonite round, and takes a shot at Brother Rikki’s head - but just before it hits, the Prophet stumbles, and the bullet takes one of his followers in the head - Brother Rikki shouts treachery and the battle begins anew - the Sudari troops open up, mowing down civilians - the 50 caliber anti air flak guns on the zeppelins rain hell from above - but the Sudari made a crucial mistake, which was using the Telegrad soldiers to guard their rear - radicals break through and attack the Sudari from behind - the battle becomes much more even, and the Sudari start losing some soldiers - Captain Amari(commander of the anti terrorist forces in Telegrad) calls for a retreat - he has plenty of forces outside of Triniton, there is no need for a close cut battle - he would rather crush them in a decisive battle - fliers fly down and rescue soldiers and citizens - Ses saves an infantry captain by use of an oraxium orb - Cage fights with bro Smith to get out of gun alley - Borris manages to rescue the RustLocke guy - eventually the battle zeppelins are loaded with survivors - then they fire artillery down on the temple square where brother Rikki was - they turn that sector of the city to rubble - then the zeppelins head off to the nearest Sudari fort - Triniton is under control of the Weq Cult Act 3 - Promises - the team meets up on the zeppelins - waiting for them, looking over the city is Tim, clearly emotional over the brutal loss of life - he thinks some force is what is making the crawlers, the Richter, the double Tongues, the crime wave, and the cultists - they spend an hour with Tim where he speaks of truly personal things - he tells them of his past - Clint questions Tim, but Tim shows Clint his thoughts, and convinces him he is a good man - Tim was a Weylanian magic scholar, who fell in love with another scholar: Sevaleion - Tim was very knowledgeable about magic - but then Sevaleion died - Tim was distraught, and poured all his time in to finding a way to bring her back - he had the greatest forge master in Weylan make him three items(a cloak, a sword, and a glove) - then he used these items, his magic, and his knowledge, to kill a God, and take it’s magic - then he resurrected Sevaleion - but it wasn’t long before a coalition of gods came to kill him - but he killed all of them - (the gods are all dying, they have had a fatal wounds but it will take many years for them to be fully gone from reality) - the power rush was unbelievable and he went to every single God, and killed them all - he was so strong, but when he came back to Drune(the planet that Fallden is on) a coalition of demons, Droga, and spirits had kidnapped Sevaleion - he engaged in battle with them, but was too arrogant and got trapped - his items were taken away and Sevaleion was promised to him if he could retrieve enough of a certain item - but the coalition changes the item every few years, he will never get her back - the group agrees to get him his items back, so that they can fight the dark force making all these bad things happen - they will hunt some dark forces, specifically droga - the zeppelins land at the fort - the team meets with the professor, and he gives them ideas for where to find a droga - the only way of guessing where one would be, is a strong magical current - the group opens the note they found on the nobleman, it is the receipt for a personal Zeppelin, the Phoenix - it is waiting for them at New Dragonsden - the group heads to the nearest East Speed Line station - the station is guarded by a huge amount of special troops from both main alliance powers - Borris goes to talk with an Inspector, and everyone else goes to meet with the rangers - they decide to meet with Grand Master Jahman of the rangers, and talk to him about Leo - they also all see a merchant Lord get on the luxury train - then they get on the economy train - after an hour of travel they arrive at the station, and take a horse and cart to New Dragonsden - ahead of them is the greatest city in the world - it is one massive city, with two layers of it floating in the air - the air is filled with zeppelins and music and the sound of merchants and culture - at the center of the city sleeps the massive orange dragon -
