One Hell of a Summer

12/19/2019

So much has happened in the span of but a few days. The Night Raiders took on Etta's request to save her son Krentz, saving him from the clutches of the Xanathar and uncovering a plot by them to replace several citizen's of Waterdeep so that they can infiltrate and grow in power. The Raiders succeeded in securing the Stone of Golorr, learning many secrets including the location of the missing dragons, the keys needed to gain entry, and the identity of the guardian protecting them. Unfortunately, a short time later they were arrested, lead to them to lose precious days in the hunt for Neverember's lost treasure. Time their enemies used against them to steal the Stone and engage in their own hunt.

Lady Cassalanter entreated the Raiders to help her save her children, but the infernal noble could not be trusted and instead the raiders used their newfound position within Force Grey and their new alliance with Alyssa Montrose to mount an expedition to rescue the treasure.

They were ultimately successful, though Alyssa ran afoul of the Cassalanters and their allies while the Raiders met a new general of darkness in the form of a third "horseman" in the guise of the former Doom Raider Tashlyn, now an undead minion. Now Death, Pestilence, and War (Alice the Hag, Severn The Wight, and Tashlyn the Death Knight) appear to be working against the Raiders.

However, along with the timely intervention of the Zentarim including Ziraj and Istrid, the Raiders survived and now count a portion of Neverember's treasure as their own.

With their first major success under their belt, the Night Raiders were able to spend time to heal their wounds, establish themselves within Waterdeep, and prepare for whatever adventure calls them next. In the meantime, I have a body again, and now that I am no longer a book, may have to engage in my own adventure's rather than retelling telling the adventures of others. I have the Night Raiders to thank for that, and someday, will find a way to repay them.
