00:00:30 – Recap of the last session.

00:02:44 – Gang wakes up after a peaceful night’s sleep to go about their personal errands. Al goes off to buy the driftglobe, put dispel magic in his ioun stone and buy himself new robes and get a haircut. He goes to Arto’s Arcane Assemblage after working out with the children and Mythil who has shown a surprising improvement in his athleticism. At the Arcane Assemblage, he purchases the driftglobe. He then goes to the Silvery Stars to get a haircut, and is told by an employee there that he needs to come back at sunset. He is also told by Mountbatten to bring Lox with him as he has been looking kind of scruffy.

00:30:37 – Lox sends a message to captain Ezra from the flying misfortune and informs him about Lorenzo’s situation. Ezra replies that he would be in touch with Lox. He then heads off to find Gon and runs into HD near the workshop. The door is again nailed to the door frame and is broken down by HD. They discuss imbuing the shard of ise rune into the helmet. Lox offers to help Gon with this. As they would also be needing the helmet, HD has to wear a ski mask meanwhile, so she gets it and leaves. Lox gives Gon the music box that he found in the yakfolk village, and plays the box for him. Gon is very fond of it immediately. He also gives Gon the drawing of Lox drawn by Al, and Lox receives a book of fairytales, which is the same book that was given to him by Billy. Lox breaks down the enchantment in the shard in 3 hours, and Gon says he will have the helmet done by the end of the day.

00:56:43 – Ben stops by Alda’s scroll, and asks Sandyse about the sun elf he has been seeing in his vision, but she had no information on that. So, he asks about shadowfell and shadow sorcerers, but Sandyse has never heard of a shadow sorcerer. Ben asks for books on shadowfell, and Sandyse tells him she will get with her contacts and have a book ready for him for the following day. Before he leaves, he asks her who the oldest person in town is (preferably in the quadruple digits), and is told that Madam Rosene the drow historian at the driftwood tavern can help him. He goes there and asks the man at the counter if the madam is free to answer questions about history, but he has no appointment. He asked to come back in 3 days, and when Ben tells them that he is a 2000-year-old sorcerer, his appointment is moved to 2 days.

01:11:12 – The gang goes to the bank to open separate bank accounts. Ben names LG as the inheritor of his gold if something happens to him (naming the boy Killian Grey). Yen goes to the clerk and has Alice pop up and announce Yen like royalty. This puts the guards on edge and makes them hostile, and they request she wait outside, so she disappears. Yen asks the bank clerk about his bank account, and as soon as she sees who it is, she starts treating Yen like the premium membership customer that he is. He deposits the money and leaves. Yen finally tells the gang about Alice, and says he suddenly remembered about her.

01:21:19 – Al and Lox go to the silvery stars, but the door is closed. The door swings open when Al knocks, and there is a tiefling standing inside wearing a suit. Lox calls out for Mountbatten, and he comes down from the staircase. A very nervous Mountbatten then tries to get Lox and Al to leave, and tries to convince them that everything is okay while trying to hide how worried he is. As Lox and Al head out, the figure turns his head and they recognize him as illuminator Hyperion. As the door closes, the establishment explodes in flames. The rest of the wayfarers hurry towards the explosion as Hyperion walks out of the smoke and fire towards them.

PART TWO

00:00:01 – Hyperion walks towards TWG through unnaturally red fire. HD charges at Hyperion and attacks him. Hyperion refers to her as “Toytere’s little knife”. Al and Ben manage to do some damage to Hyperion. Glowing rods fall out of the sky and land around Hyperion and form a forcefield around him. He is unable to damage the barrier. The gang sends Arthas a message telling him about the events. Four more explosions randomly go off around the town.

00:50:13 – Arthas instructs the gang to regroup at the HoJ. Mountbatten also sends a message: “Calling all units. This is the conductor. I have been compromised. I was targeted by illuminator Hyperion. Neverwinter is under siege from an unknown number of insurgents. Please send aid”. He asks TWG if they have a plan, which they don’t. He goes off to gather the Harpers.
