Session 52

Gates of Urik

PCs (lvl 15): Dornal, Halbarad, Torak

The PCs awake from their nightmare to face the horrific truth. Many herders are dead, and they all look at the party with anger, as they have brought this great tragedy on their village. 

The party leaves in a hurry, reaching the gates of Urik after another couple of days in the desert. After gaining entrance they gather informations and try to reach their contacts in the Veiled Alliance, hoping to find some help to accomplish the mission given to them by Korgunard.

They learn of a murderer stalking the streets of Urik at night, and of the many laws of the city. Rumors talk of a gathering of the most powerful advisors of the king, to take place soon in his palace. Looks like the perfect opportunity to better understand Hamanu's involvement in the psionic malady affecting the valley of Tyr.

Eventually they manage to contact the Alliance, and reunite with an old friend, the mage Elantha. She guides the party to a secret path to Hamanu's Palace, deep under the disused sewers. She also provides a few fruits of invisibility, to help them spy on Hamanu and his advisors. 

Inside the sewers the PCs face a savage demon, most probably the very same murderer stalking the streets of Urik.
