Fest Of The Forge

~~~~~ LAST SESSION RECAP ~~~~~Our party travelled north, quickly gaining Gregor back in their ranks as he teleported to them. The travel was shortened by a secret cave route through the mountain range within which our group discovered some glowing mushrooms that covered Husker in bioluminescence for a short while. Upon arriving at the forest, V asked each of the members to participate in the ritual casting of her spell. Husker aided with his druidic nature, the other members aided with their natural reserves of arcana. During this time, V explained to Briar why the Fey dislike the Elves. The Elves once lived in the Feywilds and were extremely cruel and killed many Fey in their time there. Upon completion of the spell, a portal opened. Our party travelled through to discover a lake surrounded by dense forestland on the other side. Inside the lake lay two large serpents. One gold with red liquid swirling around it, the other copper with silver liquid. Through much tension, Briar dove into the water, being burned as she swam. She discovered a stone vanity at the deepest point of the lake. After talking in depth at the bottom of the lake (redacted for player secrecy, but still available in the YouTube VOD's soon to be uploaded!) she emerged, with the curse on her hand removed. All of Briar's non-magical belongings turned to silver. Gregor was forced by the serpent to talk privately, but seemingly left the conversation without accepting anything they were offering. Husker dove in, under the mention of "reuniting for a moment and more permanently with some help". Upon his return, gently lifting him up, he appeared to have been crying. Thal entered the lake cautiously and the serpents dragged him down under the water's surface. After another (redacted) discussion, he was flung out of the lake. Most notably, he was no longer a green dragonborn, but instead a copper one. All items were returned from their silvered state and the group left. After some rest and travel, they ended in Sol.
