Consequences & Truth - Episode 44

As the decision is made to hold a celebration, and have Kadath speak to the people about Malar, Fix notices the remaining four council members are under a strong charm as they look to Zybella before answering any questions. Zybella instructs the council members to see to the setup and announcements of the celebration to take place that evening, and they all disperse. The group goes their separate ways, eventually finding themselves back in their rooms for rest. During this rest, Forsythe visits dreams of battle ending with a cry of death, as if from someone’s memories. 

After they all wake, they find the preparations well underway and only an hour or so before the celebration is to begin. Zybella opens the celebration by calling on the people of Ephremon using her bell-toned voice, however this time not affecting the group. Kadath then speaks to the assembly about Malar and the Falgreen being the same god. Watching over the crowd, the group notices mixed emotions throughout the people, three individuals particularly stand out and eventually are determined to be possible threats. 

Kadath informs Zybella about the three and encourages her to invite them to council the next day. Evangeline, later that evening, follows them to a tavern in the Living Tree and listens in on their conversation. Just as she was possibly about to learn more information from them, one of the three hears Buckley come into the tavern and halts their discussion. 

During the rest of the celebration, Kadath contacts Erwin and asks that he join them in Ephremon. Fix also reaches out for aid from his mother, who agrees to send Lilian to Ephremon to aid Zybella in establishing her authority and guide her decisions. During the exchange, Fix notices his mother is withholding some information and after making him promise to use Kadath’s discipline, she informs him that Guidna, who is in Niliesh, is missing.


The group reconvenes at the Owl’s Nest that after the celebration has died down and after discussing their findings decide to stay and finish the task at hand. They go to bed to get a good rest before the meeting at the council chamber in the morning. The next morning, before any awake, Evangeline goes to Joyve to learn about sending, and to have a message sent to Gavyn to ask him about Gidna. Gavyn also responds that their mother had forbidden them to search for her, but he did some anyway and discovered Gidna had left Niliesh. That morning early Forsythe is also contacted by Kosha. She lets him know strange things have been happening and mentions that odd things have been turned up missing.  She also gives him the grim news that Lady Gaera has been seen on the move. After sharing this at breakfast, he leaves to go to the trees and watch the area of Fix’s potential date with Zybella. When Erwin joins them for breakfast, he confirms Kosha’s information and discloses that Evangeline’s boomerang and the bag he carried Kadath in as an infant were missing. He also informed Fix of the pendant that ended up with Gaera and confirmed with him that it was indeed Gidna’s.
