Fire or Flee
Session 9
The 4 took a prisoner (one of the fists of the Bane) and Valeria also recovered letters from the Iron Consul (Fahul). The Poison Poseidon is on fire and some of the towns people start coming out of their homes looking at The 4 and what they are doing. One of the towns people mentions seeing people leaving the back of the Poison Poseidon The 4 quickly respond and head to the back of the Poison Poseidon to see whether this is true.
There is a big hole in the wall of the Poison Poseidon and there are flames on the floor above. Valeria decides to head into the ship to see if anything can be found (accompanied by a purple drift globe). The rest stay outside to talk to the prisoner, they begin to interrogate the prisoner to uncover more information about what they are doing.
"Elmire gets Lorcan to eat the nose off the prisoner"
He said his orders were coming from the northern part of the city and he reports to Fahul. In the end, Elmire gets Lorcan to eat the nose off the prisoner and Barny kicks the prisoner in the arse and tells him to F off.
Taurial follows Valeria into the ship. Valeria and Taurial find a women’s body and it looks like she has been sacrificed. A passageway behind the dead woman leads further into the structure and Taurial quickly starts to explore. Taurial and Valeria think about leaving and taking the body but hear chains coming from the passageway.
"but, they hear chains coming from the passageway"
Elmire then enters and decides to explore the sound of chains further and finds that the sound is coming from behind a locked door. Taurial calls for Barnabus to come and knock down the door, which he easily does. Inside they find a young women who asks for their help. Valeria finds the women’s armour and takes that too.

The 4 try to book it out of there before the fire consumes the structure. Everyone gets out in time except for Elmire, falling timbers trap her. Taurial uses vine whip to pull Elmire out of the building before she gets trapped. Elmire took some thorn and fire damage but survived the encounter.
The 4 head to Barnabus’ house with the women they found in the building, Valeria makes sure that nobody followed them.
Back at the house they find out the women they found is called Reya and she really loves her armour, Reya is a hellrider which is her knightly order, she seems super stoic and serious.
The 4 learn about The Hell Riders from Reya and they decide they need to report back to Flame Zodge and also explore the sewers and find out where the rest of the Fists of Bane went to.
