Twenty-third Session – Deeper into the Temple of the Carnifex we go, fighting through an ancient cult in order to… Well, we figure that out as we go.
We fight a bunch of dudes in here and largely have no idea why we’re doing it. “Are we ze baddies?” we are forced to ask. Mordecai finally shares some of what’s going on:
There is a brief discussion where Mordecai reveals the purpose of the quest: he found out from Lady Skeam that the king is sending an army of undead to march on Fythorp, and he can stop them with the power within this crypt, by taking control of the army and sending them back on their creator. The rest of the party suddenly feel much more motivated.
Anyway, after we kill Azazel the head Pious guy the rest of his seemingly limitless goons die. Then we have a lively discussion over whether we free the evil goddess trapped in here or not. We decide not, and have a big gold Ark of the Covenant box, some mystic tome, and three big ass jewels to show for it. But getting out isn’t as easy as it sounds… We’ll cover that next time!
