Summary
August 18, 1236 AD
After taking a nap, the party returns to the forest to meet the Green Folk. The forest is overflowing with life now that Baat's taint has been ruined. Maybe too much.
Save the Queen?
The guide who helped them is now overflowing with energy, clearly too much to handle. The queen is still dying, terribly weak, and the guide will burst if it cannot unleash this energy in a safe manner. The party decides to use Reval's Healing on the Queen, rejuvenating her. She turns around and rescues the Guide from bursting.
Queen Califisteri thanks the party profusely. She's glad they were able to stop her from hurting more, and she would have been satisfied if they had slain her or let her rot away. Instead they purified her and she's quite excited. She can even walk again, which she hasn't done in decades.
Reincarnate?
Ventshi and Darius's bodies have been preserved. The Queen offers to Reincarnate them on the spot and Restore 1 negative level. She has no control over what race their new bodies will be, though. If they reject her offer, the bodies have been protected from decay for 10 days. The party decides to keep Darius human, but Ventshi will have a new body.
After an hour long ritual, Ventshi emerges in his new body: a gold scaled kobold. He really doesn't trust the queen, but Vegeta convinces him to at least listen to her. She wants to help rebuild the monastery and needs to make new connections with the villagers. Ventshi admits he cannot do it alone and chooses to tolerate her.
The Harpy Egg
The Queen and the Green Folk are terrible at naming things. Fi should think up a name for the harpy, as it will hatch within hours. Queen Califisteri offers to raise the harpy in the party's stead. But she wants to know if she should raise it as a druid, ranger, or sorcerer.
Fi names the egg Gwaeriel ("Daughter of the Wind" in Elven)
Oh and Claire has a disease.
Also, Claire has several sores on her body. Turns out the swarm of botflies laid a bunch of eggs, and larvae are growing across her skin. Nidri nips that in the bud quickly.
August 21, 1236 AD
The party follows Ventshi to his monastery. It is messy, but the student's quarters makes a good rest spot. He feels he is not ready to take his master's room.
The next morning, the party decides to leave and check out Norrison. Darius's body remains preserved, but for how long?
August 24, 1236 AD
Reaching Norrison, the party sees the crops have definitely withered. Patrols have increased around the town. Fi notices that the town population has clearly dropped, with villagers making their way to Deonsy. Even the mayor is thinking about abandoning the town of his grandfather. The party decides to speak to the mayor and earn some good faith (besides they may be recognized in Deonsy.)
