Session Noted Continued 31-34

Session 31

Daniel asks Pukwudgi if he goes off to the spirit world. The spirit warns that if Sheri calls out to him, Fiachra might hear that too. Rhapsody gives Puk a pouch of loose Native Spirit tobacco, which amuses him before he leaves.

Connel asks some probing questions as he tries to figure out the plan against Fiachra. Daniel calls up Gwyddion to see if it's possible to fake a key.

When asking about the book, Gwyddion mentions the sorcerers that Fiachra had sent out. They were followed to the former Soviet Union and found notes the same as from the book for another summoning. He's trying to bring more of his guardians to this plane. Some sort of wyrms.

They head back into town and drop Connell off to go meet up with the rest of the Underground, then head to Roland's to return the car. During dinner, Roland doesn't offer any more help, but as the group is still needing wheels, he offers the Escalade to them.

The following morning, the group drives into town and coordinate for Gywddion to meet Connell. They meet at the Super 6 and discuss plans. Pukwudji appears and volunteers to take the book to the Elk Brother's lodge to keep hidden and safe.

They go to the cave and Gwyddion's soldiers unpack all manner of impressive ordinance. All of the bullets are silver and they all head out into the spirit cave with Sheri and Pukwudgi leading towards the lodge. Outside the lodge one of the brothers is watching. He nods in approval to Sheri.

Sheri asks if they may hide the book in the lodge. The Elk Brother agrees to do this and he will keep it safe.

Pukwudgi leads the way to the wolf lords, decked out in a WWII army helmet and his face painted in camouflage.

They get into the Wolf Clan's territory. Pukwudgi has his costume put away and warns that they go in quietly. Wolves shadow their progress in the trees and they make their way to the dens. The Wolf Lord walks out and acknowledges Sheri.

He calls out Otome as Sheri confirms that they are on their warpath. The Fox Woman knows of a better place and Pukwudgi says he can take them.

The group on the physical side drive to the meeting spot to find Pukwudgi who takes them nearer the gate.

On an idea from Gwyddion, Daniel wings a 'circle of destruction' as if they are going to try and destroy the book.

Daniel puts an essence shield on Rhapsody to help insulate her against Fiachra's will. After an hour, they put the book away.

After a while, Otome comes out and says that the others are on the other side of the gate.

Hours pass and Daniel senses a disturbance in the forest. It stops after a few moments and 15 minutes past, and she begins to smell ferals but Fiachra she does not.

Daniel calls out, "Fiachra."

No answer. There is the snapping of branches and Gregor steps out of the trees, dressed.



Gwyiddion throws his hand down to the dirt and there's a rippling force that blows into the ferals as the energy hits them. He mutters some incatation and he's holding a crystal and a wind comes out of no where. A wave of wind lifts the group up.

They are 20 feet up. The first rank of ferals is still down, the second rank is coming in and Gwyddion opens up with his gun. Daniel put up a shield, Rhapsody summoned kitties. Sonja also opens fire.

Pukwudgi runs by Sheri, yelling, "It's time, it's time!"

They go through, Sheri going in the middle of the group.

Gregor sees the tigers and heads for cover. He jumps onto a boulder, turns and gets ready to meet the tigers. Two meet him this turn. One goes high, one goes low, but he manages to dodge out of the way.

Gwydion makes a feral explode as it leaps up and he shoots it.

Jerry, the heavy gunner, sprays the area. The soldiers spread out and take cover. Two wolven ferals go for sheri's team at their back. A couple soldiers fire. One is hit and the other manages to duck out of the way.

Sheri takes aim to fire. The first shot wounds for a glancing hit. The second hits more solidly.

The feral gets in close, and is about to jump one of the ones that shot him and is levitated upwards. In his hands are guns and he fires.

Connel also fires from where he's at.

Daniel is trying to find Fiachra. He scans where he can and can tell there is more than the 30 back in the woods.

The ferals start to retreat.

The kitties attack Gregor and only one manages to get a hit. He attacks the cats and manages to kill one.

Gwyddion tossed out another grenade and blew up a tree a feral ducked behind.

Ramirez fires at the one he holds aloft and shatters its head.

Sheri fires one carefully aimed shot at a Feral and hits it, dropping it.

Daniel scans for Fiachra. There is a flash of memory of him flying waving into existence down at the middle of the tornado.

______________________________________________

Session 32

Daniel sees Fiacra coming down with three other winged things. Fiacra swoops down and tries to grab hold of Daniel who tries to dodge, and the wind is knocked out of him as he's snatched.

Unable to do anything else, Rhapsody readies her club for the flying raptor females should they near. As for her cats, the one wounded is killed, while two of the others rip into Gregor and take him down.

Sheri is keeping the area covered and hears as Sonja gives out a strangle cry as she's ripped into by one of the raptor women.

One of the other raptors flies after Connel, but Rhapsody intercepts with the club, taking in the torso, and still tries to reach out for Connel. She misses the cop and gets caught into the whirlwind. The Feral is whirled around and then slammed into the ground.

The third bird goes for Gwyddion and he dodges. He notices Daniel is gone and takes a couple of shots at Fiacra, missing.

Sheri takes a shot at the bird on Sonja, but misses and hits Sonja's body. Two of the other soldiers ready weapons, one taking a shot the other pulling his sword. The one misses and the other advances.

"Where is the book?" Fiachra demands, "Tell me now or I'll rip your arms from their sockets."

"Over there!"

"Where, I don't sense it."

Daniel soulfires. "Not my fault you can't sense anything." The spell fizzles.

Connel shoots at the one that attacked him with a silver slug filled shotgun and hits.

Gwyddion says, "You might want to hold on, I'm going to send this after Fiachra, without us." He mutters in what sounds like Gaelic and there seem to be blue lights in the wind like eyes and are set down. A vaguely birdlike form of wind, dust and leaves head after Fiachra and Daniel.

Rhapsody goes to tear apart the raptor and the kitties rend Gregor.

"Where did you send it?" Fiachra demands and shifts to take hold of Daniel's arms and starts to pull.

Daniel looks up and sees energy around Fiacra and doesn't say anything as he starts to tear his arms. He starts to channel essence out of instinct, but doesn't cast anything.

Connel takes a shot at the other raptor that's fleeing and misses.

Sheri sees the raptor turning her attention on her and she takes another careful shot and the bird manages to dodge. It gets about 12 feet up and it's telekinetically thrown into a tree. Gunfire erupts after the bird and it tries to dodge out of the way. It gains its feet and tucks its wings in as she books it through the trees.

Otome runs to the group. "Someone has followed Pukwudgi through the portal. Something with power."

Fiachra threatens Daniel again and he just says that he already told him. He starts to pull and then they are rocked by a blast of cold air. Daniel blacks out for a couple seconds and he sees he's plummeting to the trees. He manages to get his levitate spell off and slows his fall to a drift. He manages to see Fiachra wrestling with something as he falls into the treetops and howls.

Rhapsody goes after where Fiachra and two of Gwyddion's men to go on ahead, the tigers following. Ramirez and Mulder volunteer to go after Pukwudji and they go with Otome.

The others go after Fiachra.

Rhapsody smells a Fiachra beast and is ready as it and another leaps out. She meets one and sends the kitties after the other. She uses the club and it cracks its neck and sends it to the ground. The kitties goes after the others and it bulls through them, then tries to grab one, but it dodges.

The two Atlantean warriors come up and aim, but don't shoot yet.

"Watch the treeline!" and four Ferals start to pour out of the trees.

Rhapsody goes after the beast and misses as do all but one of her kitties.

Sheri shoots at the nearest Feral and it dodges out of the way.

Daniel hears Fiachra roar and the elemental vault up into the sky. The group hears Gwyddion speaking under his breath in Gaelic.

The trees and brush get trampled towards Daniel.

The other three Ferals and close with the warriors. One goes after Connel, one after Rhapsody and one after Sheri. Sheri gets hit, but her armor takes the damage. Sheri is only knocked back. Connel gets hit and swats him with a claw. Connel is knocked unconscious, gravely wounded. The one after Rhapsody misses.

The beast goes after Gwyddion and he rolls out of the way.

The others let loose. The beast gets riddled with bullets but is still on its feet. The Feral that hit Connel takes a round in the chest and flies back.

Daniel stumbles towards the gunfire as he uses his essence to use hideaway.

Rhapsody slams the club in the head, killing it. She looks to the Feral and asks, "Ready?" as the tigers attack. The first one misses, the second hits and the third kills the wolf.

Daniel still hears the crashing of a tree limb behind him and sees Fiachra. H reaches down to feel the ground. "I know you're here." He lokos around. "Your trail ends here." He starts to smash trees around the area.

Daniel channels and tries to keep out of the way of the raging Balial

Sheri summons her holy strength letting the thing attack her, drawing her kukri for a parry.

The Atlanteans pulls swords to defend. One of them does go down under a Feral. One Atlantean knocks down the Feral. The other wolf goes after Sheri and she parries and takes off an arm.

Rhapsody walks over and rips the Feral's leg off that was after Sheri. The two kitties after the Fiachra beast miss. The other kitty leaps onto the other Feral from the back and knocks him down.

Fiachra slams more trees and goes up then gets slammed into by the elemental again.

Atlanteans gang up on the beast and take it down. And Stumpy is taken down.

Sheri stablizes Connel and carries him. Two kitties guard the two.

Daniel casts a healing but it fails as he maintains his hideaway.

The group gets to the ravine and Rhapsody uses her camoflague ability and heads off on her own, leaving the cats guarding Connel, Sheri and Gwyddion.

Fiachra has quieted and gone up the ravine.

Rhapsody, ahead of the others, smells then sees two Ferals guarding the passage up the side Fiachra went. She stealths forward to attack position.

Daniel channels to cast his healing.

Rhapsody gets to see into the clearing and there is Fiachra talking to other Ferals. They spread out and she heads back to report to Gwyddion.

Daniel having his presence of mind restored as the pain fades some, he works on dismissing the essence of his failed casting. He sees several shapes run by him in the woods, bent over large wolf like forms.

Rhapsody gets to where she smells the group of Ferals and moves around them, though she will reach the others at the same time as the wolves. She bellows, "INCOMING," then attacks as the pack starts to split off to surround the Atlanteans. She cracks an arm of the wolf with the club.

Sheri sees the one attacked by Rhapsody and sets the cop down.

Two of the warriors aim at the one Rhapsody hit and fire with their assault rifles, they hit and it falls.

The Ferals jump out of the trees and attack. Three go after the kitties, the first two miss, the third is hit with the second attack and kills the one guarding Gwyddion. Another Feral goes after a tiger and kills it. Feral attacks an Atlantean and removes an arm. A Feral kills the last kitty and the last Feral goes after a warrior. The warrior sees it coming and tries to parry, but fails., almost losing a leg, but dodges the last strike.

Armless misses a shot at the Feral. Legoless takes a swipe with his sword but misses. One goes to the aid of Legoless and hits with his sword, but only nicks him. Another warrior attacks the one after Armless and hits, doing a good amount of damage.

Gwyddion attacks the one that took out a tiger and misses.

Daniel drops his hideaway and works on healing and manages fix more of the damage.

Rhapsody goes to the next Feral and bashes him in skull, caving his head in.

Legolass misses. Armless strikes and also misses. One of the warriors with Legolass hits and drops him with evisceration. One over Armless misses. Last guy goes after one and just barely misses.

Gwyddion attacks twice the first striking a leg, and the second hits through the knee and sticks in through the shoulder and to the chest.

First feral goes after one of the unwounded warriors and dodges out of the way. Secodn one goes with two attacks, the warrior parries cutting into the Feral's arm. The wolf still goes with the second attack and hits, and takes out an Arm. Feral goes after Gwyddion and his leg and cripples him. The last Feral goes after one of the uninjured warriors with two attacks. And he dodges out of the way of both strikes.

Sheri goes after the nearest feral and misses.

Daniel works on healing.

Rhapsody goes up and bashes another one in the head.

Sheri goes to the nearest to slice and dice. She hits and cuts it in face, severing the lower jaw almost completely off.

The Feral with the crippled leg goes after Gwyddion and is parried, getting it's arm severed. The one Rhapsody bashed goes after her and totally misses her as he attacks the wrong one. The jawdropped one goes after Sheri and is parried, taking it's arm off and finishes it off. The undamaged one goes after the warrior and missed.

Daniel finishes healing himself.

Armless relieves a Feral of his leg. One of the undamaged one goes after the same Feral and hits, taking an arm.

Sheri goes to help Gwyddion and misses.

Rhapsody kills the Feral with the brain damage.

The Atltanteans, first misses, the second, misses, the third hits and kills it. And the last Feral is put down.

Daniel catches up to the group.

Session 33

Heavy Machine gunner - Fallon

Gwyddion has Fallon prepare the machine gun.

Daniel has Sheri and Gwyddion make in a circle with him after drawing one around the unconscious Connel.

Once Connel is up, Rhapsody heads out to check on Fiacra and Daniel works on healing Gwyddion.

Rhapsody gets to the edge of the clearing and sees that Fiacra is in his beast form.

"I smell you, Rhapsody. My patience is not endless. Bring your worst."

"Right, be back."

Daniel finishes healing who he can, and expounds on Fiacra's shield.

Connel says he had a vision of Rhapsody killing Gwyddion and Sheri.

That pauses the group and they discuss the vision. Rhapsody is going to be more aware of her amulet.

Donovan steps into the trees and fires the rocket launcher. Shields flare and Fiacra challenges which is denied as Fallon opens fire.

A veil is lifted and there are Ferals, around 30 of them, bears, wolves and other animals, as well as woolly mammoth Fiacra beasts and an Oriental woman who had dropped the veil.

"You had your chance, now you will die. Kill them."

The horde charges.

As they are prepared for the fight, there are huge wolves behind them, bear headed Natives with the Elk Brothers, cries from above.

"We are here, Drum Sister."

The Wolf Lord and his pack leap over the group and head to engage as the eagles are striking from above.

Sheri calls forth Holy Fire on Fiacra. Lightning and fire rain down and crunch at one of his wings. Rhapsody summons four kitties to protect Sheri, Connel and Gwyddion, even against her. Wolves meet Ferals and the Wolf Lord battles a Bear Feral. The sorceress gets ready to cast. The ground begins to rumble underneath everyone. Daniel moves a little ways to get to more stable ground as he keeps channeling. Connell gets a blade from Donovan and starts heading towards Fiacra and the sorceress.

The group starts to advance with the Elk Brothers. Rhapsody tells the Native spirits that if she attacks their Drum Sister to put her down. Rhapsody is in front. A bear Feral is launching himself at Rhapsody as a mammoth beast is lumbering between the group and Fiacra. Atilita, the eagles, is attacking the beast. Rhapsody gets ready to hit the bear coming at her and hits him, the Feral not moving quite fast enough out of the way, but still tries to take a bite out of her, missing spectacularly. Daniel launches his soulfire at the sorceress and misses just ever so barely. The sorceress casts and jumps off the ledge, fading away. One of the wolves of the Wolf Lord flies near the group, blood pouring out and is then still.

Fiacra's wing looks healed. The other guardian beast takes one of the Elk Brother's spears about 3 feet into its neck. It snaps it as it takes it mostly out. Sheri goes after the bear and hits with a decent slice, taking off an ear. A wolf Feral comes in from the right and meets it with his blade, he slices across the chest and then stabs into the Feral. The wolf attacks and misses. The kitty latches onto the neck and shakes, killing the wolf. Connel Sees that a blast of energy from the side near some rocks and hit Daniel and warns him.

One of the guardian beasts advances to where it will be near Rhapsody. Rhapsody turns to the bear and rips its head off, then throws it at Fiacra. Two cat Ferals rush the line from the left and Donovan and Fallon both meet them. Sheri goes after the Ferals attacking Gwyddion's boys and hits. The Guardian Beast rears up and its tentacles shoot out towards the group, one going for Rhapsody, she manages to parry. The other tentacle goes after Donavan who manages to get out of the way. Conell tries to get a vision of the witchy poo, not getting anything new. Daniel soulfires at the other beastie and hits, doing some damage to it, making the tentacle that was hit fall to the side and spasm. One of the Elk Brothers leaps and lands on the chest on the Guardian beast and uses his antlers to gouge at it.

The Wolf Lord is surrounded by four Ferals, he spins with his spear and yells out a war cry. He hits one wolf feral across the jaw. The Feral turns into a naked person, falls and then runs away. Sheri goes after the mammoth and hits, deep into the leg and it comes down onto its leg, the appendage crippled. Rhapsody tries for a head shot as it falls down, and misses at the last second, the tiger getting out of the way of the tusk that came after her. Gwyddion helps Fallon and Donovan against their Feral, lopping the head off. The Guardian beast tries to munch Rhapsody and hits, it shakes its head and Rhaps is injured, but not down. One tentacle goes for Sheri, the other for Connel. Sheri dodges out of the way and her guardian kitty attacks, grabs a tentacle and rips it off. The other tentacle attacks Connel and he dodges. Connel's kitty pounces misses. Rhapsody sees four figures join Fiacra up on the rock. He turns and talks to them. Rhapsody recognizes him. He has two women with him and one man. They all have trenches on. The man turns to her and smiles. It's Loknath, the one who killed her family and turned Rhaps into a Feral. Daniel soul fires the other beastie and hits, under the chin and into its face. Atilita takes advantage. She puts her talons to the tusks and flips it over to its side. Connel tries to go for the heart of the beast and pulls back as he swings. A soulfire comes at Daniel from the boulders and he manages to get out of the way.

Quick look around shows good guys vs bad guys is pretty even. The Elk Brother notices that Rhapsody and her tigers are heading towards Fiachra, though specifically at Loknath.

Loknath, points and eight more tigers come out and head for Rhapsody's tigers.

The beastie goes to chomp Gwyddion, and hits, picking him up off the ground and shakes him, then flings him away.

Donovan and Fallon yell for Gwyddion, as a tentacle clamps onto Donovan, yanking him into the air with one arm pinned. The other tentacle goes after an Elk Brother and is hit.

Sheri goes after the mammoth in the neck. Connel goes to help Sheri and just gets a glancing blow, not getting through the fur. Daniel also goes to stab the mammoth and hits, managing to bleed it some.

Rhapsody is still going after Loknath. She kills both tigers she aims for. Two of her kitties kill Loknath's that they are facing.

Donavan tries to break free, and is whipped around. Fallon jumps up to try and sever the tentacle and misses. Sheri tries to carve mammoth again and is nudged back a little. Daniel attacks and misses. The evil kitties miss one and kill another. The other two go after Rhapsody and she bonks it on the head. The other kitty does slash her.

Loknath and the others throw off their trenchcoats and transform, him being the largest tiger they've seen.

Donovan goes into the critter's maw, head and shoulders go in, the rest come back out ripped. Fallon goes berserk. The tentacle goes for Sheri and hits, getting a hold of her and lifting her up into the air. A soulfire is launched at Daniel and he scrambles out of the way.

One of the Elk brothers is brought down by three Ferals. He comes up, heavily wounded. He spins around and guts one, but is not looking so good. Connel goes to attack the mammoth and manages to stab it up in through the jaw, as it comes down at him and the blade slices the brainpan. Sheri is flung out and over the battle, landing opposite Gwyddion. She hits the back of a bear Feral, knocking him off balance.

Atalita, done with the critter, goes after the sorceress. Sheri attacks the Feral that she landed on and misses. Rhapsody kills one of the evil kitties and misses the other. Her kitties kill all but one. Fallon runs up with Daniel behind Rhapsody. Evil kitty attacks Rhaps and is rent. The other kitty misses its target. The other tigers and Loknath are spreading out and approaching, but waiting for Rhaps to finish.

In her mind, Rhapsody hears Fiacra says, "This is your last chance Rhapsody, surrender to me join me and I will slay him for you. He won't even see it coming."

Rhapsody replies with a one fingered salute.

One of the Elk Brothers goes down, the other lowers its head and charges the bear Feral attacking Sheri, and sticks it with the antlers, then flings him. Bear hits the ground, mauled, one paw useless.

Rhapsody kills the last evil spirit kitty. Her kitties go after Loknath but are intercepted and are destroyed. The other tigers jump out at Rhapsody. Rhapsody parries one and slices the Feral, taking away its arm. It falls and rolls to the side. The second Feral slices at Rhapsody, and the third she blocks.

Fallon takes a stab at one of the ones standing and hits with a low jab in the torso. Sheri huffs her way towards the group. Daniel soulfires at the one Fallon hit for a little damage, singing him. Connel attacks the same one, but it manages to dodge out of the way.

Sheri sees that the good guys have won out in the major battle, with extremely heavy losses. The Wolf Lord has a shredded arm as he's on the ground on his knees. Naked humans are slinking away. Two Bear Brothers are still standing, Elk Brother is standing, the other having disappeared. Atalita and the eagles are not to be seen.

Rhapsody attacks the Feral in front of her and though she tries to block, RHaps takes out her heart and throws it at Loknath. Sheri attacked and barely misses. The one that is surrounded lashes out at Connel and he's hit and goes partially through the armor for a good gash. Fallon chops through the shoulder to the sternum and the Feral falls to the ground. Daniel comes up short and assesses the situation. Connel lops the head off the one Rhapsody removed the arm from.

______________________________________________

Session 34

Fiacra spreads his wings and tentacles sprout out from under the wings. They shoot out, striking at Elk Brother, but it is easily sidestepped. Rhapsody attacks Locknath and swings with her club, missing, then barely misses with her claw. Elk Brother launches his spear at Fiachra, who bats it out of the air with one of his tentacles. Sheri calls for the Holy Fire on Fiachra, the drums loud in her ears. The lightning strikes Fiachra, and he looks over at Sheri. Locknath attacks with the sword and misses both times as well. Connell tries to hit Locknath and is easily dodged. Daniel goes to attack Locknaht with the dagger and he hits. The Wolf Lord jumps in and attacks Fiachra, one of the tentacles picks him up and throws him off.

"know that when I kill your allies, they are gone for good," Fiachra says both vocally and mentally.

Fallon rushes in and take on Locknath, but is dodged.

Rhaposdy, with a small request for help from her murdered family, embeds the club into Locknath's side, and misses with her claw hit. Sheri lets loose with a Mind Scream against Locknath and it gets through his defenses. Fiacra sees Locknath get hammered and heads towards the group. He launches a tentacle at Sheri, and she dodges out of the way. He uses two claws against Rhapsody and connects, the blow knocking her unconscious. His other claw is redirected to Fallon and severs him in two. Connel still goes after Locknath and misses. Elk Brother comes up fvom behind and gores Fiachra with his antlers. Fiachra is then attacked by Wolf Lord and bites into the side of the Balial. Daniel hadokens Fiachra and hits, then he steps to be shielding Rhapsody. Fiachra is staggered and he's trying to get rid of the Wolf Lord still on his back.

Fiachra tries to get rid of Wolf Lord with his tentacles and the Wolf Lord dodges the hits and is still is latched on. He then chomps Elk Brother and crunches into the shoulder and is flung into the cliff and lands. Sheri tries her Mind Scream at Fiachra and it doesn't get through. Wolf Lord pulls himself up a bit and tries to chomp down on Fiachra's neck and he clamps on. Fiachra visibly goes limp for a moment as the tentacles fall in that time as his neck is torn into. Daniel fires a soulfire but it's dodged. Locknath drops his sword, and goes as near to full tiger and starts to run away. Connel changes targets and attacks Fiachra but doesn't quite get there.

Fiachra's claws rip into the Wolf Lord and he is flung into the cliff. There is an audible snap and disintegrates as he hits the rocks at the bse of the cliff. The remaining Elk Brother gets to his feet and yells in anguish. The Elk, looking more bestial, leaps up and charges at Fiachra, the tentacles tripped him up and he slides to the side. Sheri attacks Fiachra and hits, sinking the whole of her kukri into the back of her neck. Fiachra screams, the tentacles whipping around, knocking Daniel off his feet. Connel goes to club on the head of Fiachra. Daniel calls for Hashunka.

There is an eagle's cry and a firebird appears. She lands on the clifftop and transforms into her 'human' guise. "I sense my daughter, is she well here?"

Hashunka helps Elk Brother to his feet. She transforms into her winged form, picks up Fiachra and flies off with him.

Rhapsody wakes and looks around as much as she can and says, "Shit."

Daniel goes to look for Adelita.

The others look for survivors. Gwyddion is dead.

Further down the ravine is a rockslide, Daneil senses her in the rockslide. Adelita calls for Daniel. He manages to get the rocks off her and get her out. Underneath is also a leg and hand of the sorceress. Daneil heals Adelita.

Connell and Sheri make a triage to get the injured former Ferals tended to. Rhapsody looks for Locknath and starts tracking him.

Sheri goes over to where Elk Brother is drumming, he's near the spot where Wolf Lord was killed. Other spirits are also gathering around him.

Rhapsody follows the trail of blood through the woods and it leads to the cliff ledge and it disappears. She heads back towards the group.

Connel went to get a cell phone to get help for the survivors, and also broke the news to the surviving team.

Rhapsody, while heading back, sees a survivor and keeps going. She gets to her clothes and goes to track survivors.

Ashley gets the truck and they start hauling the dead elves and it takes them the rest of the night.

They have the funeral service for the elves, then get back towards the Escalade and head towards the entrance to the Elk Brother's lodge. They go through the cave and there is smoke from the lodge and there is flute music comeing from inside. Pukwudji is sitting inside, Muller's arm is bandaged up.

The book is safe, thanks in part to the two Underground members. It was one of the eagle women harpies who had great magic with her.

They leave the book behind with the Elk Brother.

They head to the Oracle and hike up. As they get near they hear voices. Rhapsody goes on a head and finds a little two man tent by the remains of a fire. The pair continue to talk about what's going on and finally Rhapsody speaks up startling them.

They promise to take the pair out after they rest. They talk to the oracle and find out there is nothing new to be reported other than Fiachra is bound.

After sleeping a whole day, theyhead out. Rhapsody takes the 'scenic' route so that the couple doesn't know where exactly the pool was.

On the radio report is about an 'alternative religion' who was trying to get more members with torture, drugs and other methods.

"great, Dirty Sherri."

Connel heads to the Underground base.
