- Banana Slicer hilarity!
- FST spend a few days recuperating, researching, Mending, and such with Gerard
Sharai learns from Gerard and / or his library:
- Lionshead Island is home to 3 adult dragons
- Dagarth, a fiery, red dragon who is the youngest of the three, lives near the volcano. He collects fairly traditional treasures. His breath weapon is fire.
- Gerard is a green dragon who collects books. He "breaths" poison.
- Eris is a blue dragon who is possibly the most magical and powerful being Gerard knows. He says she is "great & terrible" and believes her influence to stretch far beyond the island. Gerard believes that she was old when he was young. She collects power and spits lightning.
- On dragons in general:
- Dragons lay hundreds of eggs at a time, but when they hatch they fight and cannibalize each other until only a few (or possibly only one) survive
- Dragons can shape change to look like a human (obviously as that's how the girls met Gerard)
- Dragons have a breath weapon, the element of which is based on their scale color.
- About Lellzutho:
- He is a demigod from the Elemental Chaos
- He was summoned here by a power-greedy sorcerer
- The sorcerer became possessed by him and then became an engine of destruction
- Lellzutho destroyed an entire country and killed many millions or people.
- He was eventually defeated through a combination of deception, luck, and powerful magics.
- He "flew into bits", so these artifacts are probably bits of him.
- Sharai also learned the spell Thunderwave from one of Gerard's many tomes on magic.
- There is more discussion about what to do about the Lellzutho bits.
- S tells T to ask Gerard if he will ask for a meeting with Eris to see if she can help destroy them
- Gerard arranges the meeting with Eris at a neutral location
- At the meeting, Eris arrive as a blue dragon who transforms into a cloud of lightning while still flying and then the lightning condenses into the form of a very tall woman with solid black eyes (no pupil, iris, or sclera)
- She is very interested to see that so many of the Lellzutho artifacts are surfacing. She's known the location of the Heart for a long time, and she believes it is time to take it for herself.
- She does not believe that she can destroy the artifacts, and she's not sure she would want to either, but if they can discover what the essence of the artifact is, then the opposite of that essence might destroy it.
- They experiment with the Hand by having Thessalie cast Mending on it to see if healing / creation magic would destroy a piece of a demigod of chaos / destruction. It does not work and T has the magical equivalent of having the breath knocked out of her.
- The meeting ends and Eris goes off to claim the Heart for herself.
- Gerard takes the girls back to his well-appointed caves, where some food helps T to revive her spirits a bit.
- More discussion about what to do with no real conclusion.
- 1,000 XP ea. - 11,410 XP total ea.
