Back to It

Finally, the group, now in possession of the ancient Elven artifact, return to The Filthy Whore, but before setting sail, Bawlzack decides to return to his icy cave beside the harbor, and Lenan stays there with him. They are introduced to 2 Gnom-elves named Tella and Fallon who agree to join the party. The party sets sail with Katrina, Malkovia, Sylvia, Tella, Fallon, Bree, Meat, and Helion (who was on the boat). At the point in their journey the group was near Islellana, the humans have a jet fighter patrol spot the ship. Although Tella is able to down one jet with a lightning bolt and Fallon is able to stop one missile, the ship is eventually destroyed with the group having to dive into the waters for safety. Once again, Katrina's armor makes her sink, but she is rescued by Fallon. They swim on debris to safety on the mainland after a couple hours, losing their vehicles and horses. After moving inland and making camp, Jahli arrives looking to see if they survived the assault. He takes the artifact to the front lines of elves and dwarves who are now mounting a defensive front as the human invasion is imminent, but before he leaves he teaches the shape metal spell the artifact contains to Tella and Fallon. Early the next day, Meat, Bree, and Helion head to the port city of Gilaroh to enlist in the fight against the humans. After some hunting, the rest of the group also heads there and are persuaded by Jahli to join a covert operation that plans to strike the head of the human brain trust after they begin their invasion.
