[Petals & Thrones] Session 3: Blood & Gold

Session III
The battle begins to their advantage. The Red Jester sets Sir Brander's breastplate on fire with heat metal, and then the Ringmaster takes out nearly the entire enemy force but a single archer and ogrillon with hypnotic pattern. It was essentially a rout from that point, the party hunting down runners, ultimately only a single archer escaped with their life.

Some time is spent trying to figure out who will carry what in terms of loot, but the party ultimately returns to Ramshorn with their bloodied reward. That night is the Lunatic FĂȘte, in which the party mingles. Aquilan's kata routine brings a joyous smile to Clown. Morluck pushes really hard to convince Vlatla & Lunatic alike to send soldiers over to Ramshorn to handle the leftover spiders in the region, which grows tiresome with both factions; fortunately, Morluck's call for mercy on the captured Bear soldiers (besides Sir Brander) was sufficiently impassioned to offset that concern.

After the FĂȘte, a few days later, they are approached by Caspar & Lidia for their respective quests. Morluck presses Caspar that they could take members of his Order to fight spiders as additional payment, but runs hard into the fact that while they deserve respect, the Order's needs are elsewhere.

After the long rest, they hire Selpora, Milo, & Fodel and let them have access to their small armament.
