Upon waking up after sleeping in Yanni's Rope Trick. I proceeded to get sick and puked up a nasty looking rug thing. Then a compulsive feeling over took me. Judas needed help bad and he wanted me to bring the cleric like people to help if I could. Although he didn't call them clerics he called them religious bitches or something to that affect.
After some more retching and me begging Valeska and Demona. It was my feeling that I shouldn't bring anyone else. We hopped on the rug and it teleported us to some distant place based on the fact that the mountains were different and there was some serious cold going on so much so it hurt. We were in a small seemingly abandoned village. We heard a loud roar in the distance. We headed for the closest door in hopes of changing into some more warm. We entered a small cottage and started changing into more cold type clothing when this huge nasty looking polar bear trudged into town. It quickly noticed us and battle ensued although I am not really sure if we could have avoided it. The cold seemed super natural and after we succeeded in killing the beast the cold subsided. I claimed a tooth for the victory.
The only evidence of other people were some fairly fresh horse tracks leaving town. We checked the one building that was locked and looting some food and other cold gear. We then headed out following the horse tracks.
A bit later we discovered a tent with a body in it. Judas was in some kind of healing coma. Then an odd object appeared and it was some kind of communication device created by Judas. He indicated that there was an altar not far from here with a sword in it that he needed. It was guarded by a bunch of undead that kept returning even after being destroyed.
We approached the place and a nasty battle begun. Slowly, we destroyed or turned them away. We reached the top of the hill and altar when a cloud of weapons formed to defend the altar. It seemed to have a random amount of attacks each round with various effectiveness. Eventually, I nearly died but Valeska (or maybe it was Demona) cast some sort of last second healing that resuscitated me. At this point most of my magic was gone but I had a few tricks left. Demona continued to hammer on the flailing weapons and Valeska continued to try shooting it as well. I cast Ray of Enfeeblement as one of my last semi-offensive spells helping reduce its damage in a major way. Finally, the thing collapse in a pile of worthless weapons. In the altar was a bastard sword. Valeska used her magic gloves of reading to find out more about the weapon and its previous owner.
(Matt needs to find his notes on this and add it here)
Some sort of orc dude was using it and gave it to a cleric of Demona's religion. The sword is CN I think is what she found out.
Next we returned to Judas and a large argument ensues revolving around giving Judas the sword. I decided giving Judas the sword was the best route to go. He had confided in me that he needs it to destroy a minion of Lord Soth that has some control over him but if we don't give it to him he will take it with force. I then stated to my friends that I am leaving if you don't come with me I will leave without you. This didn't go over very well. After a lot of arguing about trust and friendship, they agreed to leave the sword and teleport with me. Since I could only teleport once we traveled as far as possible. Little was said but Valeska decided to try without asking to suggest that I tell her everything that Judas said. It didn't work the first time. And after being somewhat annoyed that she would try this especially after having a big argument about trust and friendship without asking. I decided to prove to her that I was not lying and willingly let her use the spell on me.
In the long run I was forced by magic to help Judas and probably made some rather brash decisions that likely hurt my relationship with Valeska and Demona. Do I regret some of the decisions? Probably. Can I change what I did and said? No, I'll just move on like I have with every decision I have made so far in my some what crazy life.
