 Per your instructions, I then prepared The Mark. The life force of this pitiable fool would serve to bring forth your servants, and the dark legions from between the stars answered my call.

 Doug informed the party that this was just a copy of Leandra.  Unfortunately, he didn't know where the real one was but he did have an intimate knowledge of the Envoy, having once known everything it knew before the connection was severed.  The party left Maelstrom on Leandra's boat, finding some loot, training and having conversations that will be retconned shortly.  The Host also informed the party that the Sentinel had offered her a deal - access to one of the renowned silver scroll artifacts.  In return, he did ask The Host to try to upset the old gods and their hold on the world.  Also, on the way, the party stopped to mail the future-letter to themselves.  <del>And they made a gift of their newly acquired boat to the Flumph Father.</del>  The party returned to their bar, where they discussed fountain placement and what silver scroll to ask for...  Doug informed the party that this was just a copy of Leandra.  Unfortunately, he didn't know where the real one was but he did have an intimate knowledge of the Envoy, having once known everything it knew before the connection was severed.  The party left Maelstrom on Leandra's boat, finding some loot, training and having conversations that will be retconned shortly.  The Host also informed the party that the Sentinel had offered her a deal - access to one of the renowned silver scroll artifacts.  In return, he did ask The Host to try to upset the old gods and their hold on the world.  Also, on the way, the party stopped to mail the future-letter to themselves.  <del>And they made a gift of their newly acquired boat to the Flumph Father.</del>  The party returned to their bar, where they discussed fountain placement and what silver scroll to ask for...

 //Before we go through the trial it seems as if the Host wants to give us a great feast. It's a great time to take a look at our horoscopes. I only have the signs for myself, Sarrin, and Host so I will be able to get a good read on us. The others are a bit more complicated. Would I read Duskwick based on his original birth day or his reanimation date? I don’t have either of those dates so it's not really relevant right now. As for Flips, the question is similar, would I read him based on the day his spores infected the corpse, the birth date of the corpse, or the date of the creation of the voice in his head? All of his messing about with time would no doubt impact the reading as well...oh well I can do a reading on the day in general as well to give me even more information.// //Before we go through the trial it seems as if the Host wants to give us a great feast.
