Lucia's Diary 28
So, now that Skryfe was leveled, we went to Asterra's house, as that was probably the safest place we could go to. After a long night with lots of noise and lack of sleep, the majority of the party decided to sleep during the day a bit, except for Asterra who helped repair the roof of their house.
People from the town of Skryfe were busy rebuilding, helping people out, etc. Apparently, while there were some serious injuries, no one was killed! Some work of the
gods... or Goku. Most of us decide to go into town to see if there's anything we can help with. As we go through the city, we notice a topless woman healing a child... this seems just plain wrong, plus it's a little cold!! Apparently she's a priestess from some perverted church... definitely never joining THEM!
We eventually arrive at temple row. The temple of Kerrag looks repairable, and the temple of Puccih has a few cracks, but is ok overall, and the Temple of Knox was completely untouched, with lines of people outside of the intact temples, probably seeking healing or refuge, along with city guards, watching the priests just as much as the people themselves.
We went into the temple of Knox. When we go up to the high priest's chambers, we find that the doors are sealed, probably due to security from the recent occurrence. Mora tells him details of what we've seen as well as letting him know that her gizmo was able to record the whole thing, and that we just need an artificer to repair it.
Well, as we keep going through the town, we found that there were dead found among the rubble, so it was not a perfect evacuation sadly... but even then, the casualty counts were surprisingly low, which is a good thing. As we walk around, a guard comes by, recognizes us, and takes us to the captain of the guard at the guardhouse. We explain the whole situation to him, what we saw, and about all the artifacts that were used, destroyed, and about the one we needed to return to keep the sea monsters away.
While we are talking to the captain, the entire world turns into shades of purple for about a minute, and then goes back to normal... weird... we suspected maybe some god playing tricks or some major artifact or some such... Other strange things start to happen... As we were eating, people started changing colors and all sorts of weird things... Maggy aged like 10 years, Mara's face vanished, Asterra's hair ALL fell out, ... thankfully nothing happened to Manny or me, but Manny seems to have been too shocked by this and was fumbling all his utensils and everything (understandable)... that stew was really strong smelling though, cause the smell of the stew did stick to my clothes afterwards. After dinner, they all went back to normal... except for Asterra who kept her hairless body... poor her.
