    We picked back up our story after emerging from the cave we found ourselves in, and realizing we were back on the topside of Veilmist Isle and the lighthouse was above us.  As the whole village was there to watch the Beacon be placed back in its rightful place, our party finally gets to watch the play that they were about to perform for them the last time they were here.  But what is that play and what are these people hiding?  Sit back, relax and find out.   July 4-6 660 PE (Post Emergence) 33rd Emergence  Player Level: 7 Belv (Khaal): Saurial Blood Hunter Mutant.  Abe (Zion): Leonion Ancestral Guardian Barbarian   Galea (Suzans): Kalistar Grave Cleric - MIA Cass (Kira): Fairy Dance Bard  Brandon (Fiddix):  Mapach Leyline Wizard 6/Artificer 1 Razza (Fixer): Thri-kreen Soulknife Rogue 5/Cleric 2 - MIA Saint (Quiven): Pallid Elf Hunter Ranger

    A Fey Relocation Project Session 64

    Fun one last night.  We picked back up after walking through a teleportation circle and found ourselves inside a cave that's been turned into some sort of teleportation chamber.  We were inside some sort of copper and brass machine that was spinning with lightning all around us and as it stopped and we could get out, a voice in the distance said "Oh good, time for fun."  So sit back, relax and enjoy what happens next.   Braxis 1, 3502 Players:  Level 14 Sabryn: Reborn College of the Road Bard Francisco: Half Drow Paladin of the Open Sea Tooth: Dwarf Totem Barbarian / Fighter - MIA Talos: Obsidian Warforged Scribe Wizard Ben: Reborn Shadow Sorcerer / Moon Druid  Ki: Kobold Elemental Monk
