Schemes and Dreams - Episode 45

Just after breakfast, Lilian arrived and the group headed to the council meeting. At council, though Zybella does appear to be speaking telepathically to individuals, it is Genlan who is her public voice. After general business Uriro, one of the three suspicious people from the night before, addresses his concerns regarding possible repercussions from Malar. He is offered to take the lead on researching and implementing plans to deal with the possible issues as they manifest. Uriro accepts this offer and the council concludes their business. 

Fix introduces Lilian to Zybella and, after a brief conversation, she motions for Juric to show Lilian to her quarters. Fix then turns his attention back to Zybella and asks her to an early dinner in the trees to which she accepts. Zybella then turns her attention to Erwin as they begin to discuss other business they turn and leave. 

Evangeline makes her way to Joyve to arrange the purchase of a set of sending stones and contact Gavyn on his whereabouts. He shares that he is bouncing between Thriest and Rarmon at the moment gathering information about Gidna's disappearance. 

The party is wasting some time in the Owl's nest when an elven woman enters who  seems to recognize the group. Upon questioning the woman, they discover she is Liagwyn Alderrose, a member of the Order of the Third Eye who serves Savras, from Umdera. After relocating to the library where there was less chance of being overheard, she reluctantly shares that the group was in her visions. She had seen the group retrieve an item and returned it to the rightful owner. After being shown the cards (both finished and unfinished), she points to the item on the Fates, the Crystal Ball of Many Eyes. This item was last known to be with Dollen Bada at Ossam's Traveling Menagerie and Circus in Milave and its rightful owner is Alazurus, who also lives in Umdera.


Fix then goes on his date with Zybella, after which the group teleport to Thriest where  they check in with Kosha at the Order of Balance.  Evangeline disappears to search out any signs of the Jagged Dream and, moving about the town, eventually finds a familiar dagger pendant hanging among other necklaces. She convinces the vendor to take a note to Gavyn, then follows the man to a back alley. Ducking into a small cantina and sneaking to the back, she finds herself in a private room with Gavyn. As she has a  discussion with Gavyn she discovers that he is tracking rumors of Gaera's movement and his belief of Gidna meeting up with her in Far Brohn, however Gidna's movements are much harder to track. Forsythe and Kosha, at Kadath's suggestion, decide to head to the underground to gather more information.
