Session 2
Notetaker:Jesus

-Lye begins pursuit of what Evander is following, Evander keeps up well but Lye gets clotheslined by a box

-All-Moon climbs up a warehouse and begins pursuit as well, keeping up speed fairly easily

-Korrin goes up to check what they see as illusion magic, upon entering the space all sound goes away and they realize the silence spell was cast in the area.

-Korrin does notice a lingering puff of smoke from a candle being snuffed out

-William finds a trinket, a pair of silver wings with a now crushed sapphire in the middle. It resembles a lapel pin. It was right below where Korrin is climbing

-William follows Korrin, using his grapple arm to reach up shelf by shelf to pull himself up to meet with Korrin

-Lye picks himself up, hears sounds and runs in that direction since they lost sight of the pursuit

-Evander notices All-Moon leaping from building to building, catching up fairly quickly. They seem to be leaping clear over from the edge of one building, clear over another, and catching to a third

-All-Moon notices the escapee begin to cast a spell pulling the shadows around him and teleporting, however they seem to have teleported down in the path of their on the ground pursuer Evander

-Evander noticing this, attempts to take a shot at the escapee's leg, but notes they are heavily obscured and decides to keep chasing instead of wasting the shot

-All-Moon although losing sight from the teleport, leaps over a gap where they lost sight and notices them below, keeping pursuit along the rooftops

-Evander notes All-Moon tracking and realizes they still have eyes on the person, which aids in their own spell cast to keep up

-Korrin and William find a little nest, as if someone was sleeping in the hidden spot. They also find a book by the title of "Wunderkin's Aftertales Stories for All Ages"

-William flips through the book, finding inside the cover a note "Property of the Lilstrae Family"

-Korrin however notes a small trinket that seems tribal, but more rigid than what he knows. Fitting for a colder environment

-William is pretty sure they are effigies of Xaintongeaisi origin. Not sure what they are used for however

-William pockets the effigy, Korrin pockets the book

-Lye has given up, starts looking for something to do. They do turn a corner and run into a person with an excessive top-hat and fancy coat. They seem eccentric, noble rich, and their eyes are multicolored

-He states he is Balazar and begins advertising his establishment, Songdrop and Balazar's Mystic Menagerie, a menagerie and also advertises their strongman

-Lye states they have a strongperson who is stronger, they arrange to meet to establish the challenge

-Lye dismisses them after wanting to try to find their group, but gets tempted to pick off fancy goggles but decides it wasn't a smart choice to do so

-All-Moon keeps track of them bobbing around corners. The person stops to seem to cast something, and All-Moon takes advantage of this leaping down after fading from sight

-They land on the person who lets out a feminine groan but they melt into a crate,

-All-Moon lifts the crate, and Lye and Evander finally catch up.

-All-Moon tosses the crate, and when it does not break they lift their maul and smash the corner open careful not to hurt the person inside

-The person seems to try to cast a spell one last time but as they do All-Moon grabs their wrists stopping them. The person begins to curse and flail trying to break free but no avail

-Evander approaches and gags them, lecturing about spells that only require voice. He then brings out manacles to cuff the woman.

-She struggles more at the mention of questioning, and even more-so when guards are brought up.

-Evander brings a second set of manacles to cuff their ankles

-When All-Moon and her stare at each other's eyes, nothing seems to happen. But when Evander stares he notes the trauma and darkness in her eyes

-Using mention of guards seeming to affect her, All-Moon states they don't care for the guards either, so they can avoid them and make things easier.

-She complies. Evander removes the gag but not before pointing a gun at her chin

-He then casts zone of truth and begins questioning. Evander asks what she was doing, to which she replies reading a book

-Evander asks if it causes any harm to anyone, to which she responds her reading the book has no effect on anyone other than herself

-All-Moon leans in and whispers something to her, but with Evander right there she does not seem to react to it. Evander seems to hear but not understand

-Korrin and William catch up, William notes the effigy's on her person, and states he has one too and asks if she recognizes it. She says of course, and her cat/familiar appears. Distracting both William and Lye

-The ones she is wearing seem to be of healing and rejuvenation, the ones William holds seem to be of stealth and murder

-A bird flies down and lands on Evander's shoulder and snapped it's head towards Lye

-Lye is wary, brings up a rock, and the crow bellows in a low voice in abyssal. Korrin and Evander both seem to understand

-Lye freaks out and throws the rock at the crow, but it chuckles and flutters away

-Korrin walks up to the crow and asks it something in abyssal

-When asked why she had the effigies, she states people need to sleep

-William tries to intimidate her, saying she is dodging the question, but All-Moon steps in defensively and states people are allowed their trinkets

-Evander clears up about being an inquisitor of a different land, and does not care as long as she is not hurting people or involved in the corruption

-She answers she does not harm anyone who does not have dealings with corruption

-Evander states they could be helpful, and might even reward them

-She states she does not care for rewards or such, she only wants the head of Falven Goristra

-Evander asks what Falven did to her, to which the answer is Falven orchestrated destruction of alot she held dear

-Lye asks her name, she answers Zafia

-She states she does not need help to get to Falven, but states she does not have a safe way out

-Evander states that she has a reason to live after then, to which she states she Falven is the only one not on the list.

-As Evander continues pressing about her use, she whispers he is almost as bad as the testers (referring to Xaintongeais likely)

-She states the only crimes she has committed are the ones that cost Falven

-Evander states he has the power to convict and kill those dealing with corruption but not extensive torture, but Zafia counters that he would not know about it

-Evander ungloves his hand and holds out to Zafia, she however states she has failed to find documentation or proof

-Zafia also reaches up to her collar and seems to get sad as if not finding something

-She then seems to reach to shake the hand but the cat jumps on her shoulder and she disappears with the cat

-Evander tries to make clear what he is doing, and that he has been hunting down information for a long time. And he wants space to do what he needs to do. He also states that none are to turn Zafia in.

-However All-Moon had smirked during his speech and essentially brushed him off and begins walking off

-Korrin and Lye seem uncaring and unbothered, talking about the event being pointless

-William gives the book to Evander

-Lye tries to find All-Moon but does not find them after turning a corner.

-Korrin asks Lye to see if they can find an arena, having nothing else to do for the moment. Lye agrees and invites arm guy (William) and goody two shoes (Evander)

-William agrees, Evander thinks if there even is an arena

-He is not interested but he thinks he knows where one is.

-Going to the Golden Chains, Evander flaunts some coin discreetly and tries to get information on some entertainment of the scrappy variety.

-He is given a location to go to, Warehouse D14

-Evander wants a better place, he is told "Tell 'Ser' Ellen, that you are fine with rather rough debts" at the Golden Chains

-The Golden Chains is a gambling place

-The four; William, Korrin, Lye, and Evander, approach, and are told to check in their weapons.

-Korrin hands in a spear and dagger, Lye his crossbow, William his sawblade, Evander his arsenal.

-They are given tickets to their locker with their stuff for when they leave, and are then led through

-They are hit with an intense aroma of sulfur and saltpeter, as well as the sickly sweet of opium. Some more knowledgeable know the first two scents are involved in gunpowder

-There are no windows in the establishment, the place is not packed

-Evander prefers whisky, neat. He opens a tab

-He downs the drink and then asks for another, going on until he gets almost drunk, which is about five whisky's

-Lye tries to go for the roulette for some gambling. Puts a silver on 55

-William partakes in whisky shots, paying upfront for five

-All-Moon goes to rest in their room for the evening but does hear a tapping at their window. They go to open it and Zafia slithers in her strange form

-She asks why they didn't make the symbol multiple times, and points up, as if to indicate multiple moons

-They introduce themself as All-Moon, as if to explain the symbol. Zafia reintroduces herself. She then asks if they have seen a small lapel, describing the one William found

-All-Moon states they did not but will ask the others as he noted they stuck around the initial spot of the start of chase

-She mentions to tell the inquisitor that she will be going to the Menagerie or the Lilstrae Home Ruins, but the bandits have likely moved in to the latter. All-Moon offers to aid in clearing them out.

-Zafia turns to leave, asking to be called for if they find the lapel, to which All-Moon asks how they will contact her.

-She says she will have NiteLite be available for All-Moon to contact. The kitty is NiteLite, has an anglerfish-like tail and eyes that glow when it does magical things.

-The others begin ready for their brawling
