Thanks everyone (@MakubakuX @Lenzi-boy @RootLeaf @FoggyPortents) for playing yesterday. You not only uncovered the reason behind the recent woes of Hillsmeade, but explored, partially wrecked & stole from the extradimensional space of the wizard Fistandia.
You all get 160GP, 10 downtime days & a level-up upon your return to Hillsmeade.
Once there, 2 novice sages of Candlekeep, one of them an apprentice of Matreous arrive and thank you for attempting to help Matreous in his life’s work. They reveal to you that it was a small imp statue that he took out of the portal that ended up killing him. They say they cleaned up the mansion, and started assuming that this is one of Fistandia’s many mansions which she ended up abandoning. As such, they offer each of you one magic item found at the mansion as a thanks from Candlekeep and them:
One Driftglobe
Pouch of Dust of Disappearance
Please don’t forget to read our V.A.L.U.E. houserules for how magic items work, and the limit for how many you can have at one time.
The novice sages also offer a couple of days of their time in helping Gallio explore ways to speed up the lifting of the curse. The curse is lifted in 5 business days.
