[Darkest Before Dawn] The Broken Daiklave Teahouse

I could have been hired by the resistance to steal an artifact that would have turned the tide, maybe?
How does this work?


The Black Sun Knife, seemingly the least of the objects in the vault of the Death Lord, was in truth among the most worthy. It was a relic of the Wyld Hunt, as old as the Great Uprising. A nameless Prince of the Earth took it up from the blood stained alter of the solars and struck down the Anathema as the blasphemer had struck down ten thousand men in sacrifice. The last blood it spilt stains the knife still, having turned to gold as thanks for being freed from the corrupt flesh that had held it. Even so it is not much to look at, a shard of jagged obsidian not even a foot long.


Had it been available, it would have anchored the salt ward and the exorcism together, banishing the dead from across the city and binding the Mask of Winters. Or perhaps not, the truth will never be known now.


As for Jann, what if the raids were partially timed to draw the Deathknights away from the city to leave the Mask alone?

I could fully go with the fact that as she was raiding the outlying villages she heard of a plot to bring down the death lord. She could have planned the next attack to be a distraction, but the Death Lord sent one of his Knights to fight rather than just an undead captain. It could have escalated farther than she wanted it to go, not knowing how strong the Knight was.

I like it
 
So I have a massive project due on Monday and am also moving the girlfriend's stuff in with me this weekend, so, will be a little busy until then, ^-^;
 
Who is the screaming girl you reference in that last post, the one destined for the flesh vats.
 
Oh, yes..... That would be me. She's not nearly in as bad shape as she appears, but she isn't going to give him the satisfaction of building her up and then smashing her hopes to pieces.
 
Yes. Just not sure what to do. It seems we are at his mercy with no way out unless something changes.
 
Stuff's about to happen, was just giving a little more opportunity for PC creativity. Even my dead-end situations aren't entirely dead-end, but I do have an out for you guys in a bit, I promise :D
 
Okay everyone. Let's take our seats, unless anyone else wants to get a spear thrust through them. We want to get this going so that we can build our characters and get started using the solar powers we will get.
 
Hey, taking a day off of from the site... a personal friend passed last night and I need a little downtime. Will continue with your exaltation on the morrow, :D
