Checking in

Forsythe found Devin outside of a tavern and gave him Evangeline’s description, then encouraged him to report it to the Order of Truth. Meanwhile, in the Trentson home, 
Evangeline used sending to ask Brezin about the Forge family. He disclosed their locations within the Durkhal. Kosha, with Arias’ aid, worked to disguise Fix, Kadath, and herself prior to leaving. 

Kosha led the way to the secret tunnel connecting an outer storage shed to the dungeon level of the Durkhal. As they entered, they heard an explosion from the other side. Knowing this was the distraction provided by Arias, they quickly entered into the tunnel and began moving through. Kosha stepped on a pressure plate and held there while Evangeline, with Forsythe’s aid, disabled the trap prior to it triggering. 

Inside the Durkhal, they quickly made their way to the sleeping quarters on the lower level and found Evangeline’s three siblings. Kosha took the siblings back to the tunnel to get them to a safe place while the group continued toward the great hall. As they reached the stairs, they heard Gidna’s voice telling Renio “If you manage to succeed, contact my lady.” Fix, after becoming invisible, caught a glimpse of Gidna as she disappeared via a spell. 

While the group took down Renio, Leslyn was left scared and confused about her convictions. After Renio fell unconscious, Buckley was instructed to lead Evangeline’s parents to safety. As Forsythe healed Renio to wake him, Kadath heard commotion on the grounds of the Durkhal as Zhev guard and guards from the Order of Truth began to make their way to the building.
