The party was previously roped into a widesweeping investigation on behalf of
|
||
|
|
Breach who was engaged in a frantic battle against kytons on the Shadow Plane.
|
||
|
|
One Breach agent mentioned to Calder that the kytons were trying much harder
|
||
|
|
than usual to "save us". There were several unusual trends on the material
|
||
|
|
plane: 1) people were disappearing all over the cities, in Busura it was a large
|
||
|
|
number of people, mostly children, in Al'Jira a small number of adults of
|
||
|
|
varying professions. 2) A worrying number of people developer total amnesia 3)
|
||
|
|
an intellegent zombie was discovered working as a night watchmen and was slain
|
||
|
|
immediatly. The party was in the process of tracking down where the children
|
||
|
|
were being taken when they blundered into another universe, except for Calder
|
||
|
|
Black. Calder continued the investigation on his on, and then with Barri and
|
||
|
|
discovered that a daemonic priest was kidnapping them and leaving them in the
|
||
|
|
care of a mostly benign undead orphanage master in a ramshackle building inside
|
||
|
|
the city. The priest was killed. The orphan master was killed, the children were
|
||
|
|
released into the streets, save for the undead ones, who Barri adopted. They
|
||
|
|
declared the investigation complete and began planning their raid on the Dark
|
||
|
|
Priest. The cities vanished about a month later, leaving behind only a massice
|
||
|
|
stone slap with a single symbol carved on it. Later, the Bishop of Nemes threw
|
||
|
|
out a bunch of doomsayers from his lands and only afterwards learned from his
|
||
|
|
ghoul priests that they may be far more fangrrous than they seemed and
|
||
|
|
potentially responsible for the Twin Cities disappearance. The Bishop passed the
|
||
|
|
warning along to General Vandeemer and several cultists were captured in Fort
|
||
|
|
Rather and several more were apprehended and put death in the town of Hope.
