Session 32 Recap

Three months went by in Overlook with minimal events or news. With Zithiruun and Sarshan dead, things in the Vale had been very peaceful. Life in the city had almost returned to normal. There was still ongoing construction. And the various churches had been assigned new clergy.

The adventurers were enjoying a nice lunch one afternoon when three city guards burst into the tavern. The sergeant quickly spotted the heroes and tried to catch his breath before speaking. "A war galleon is FLYING towards the west gate! The captain would like you present in case theres trouble."

The "Conquerer" made a rough landing about a hundred yards from the wall. A lone Githzerai stood on deck. He beseached the city guard of Overlook to call forth it's heroes, the slayers of Zithiruun. When the heroes presented themselves, he looked a little confused. They were... not what he expected. He was very polite & formal. He asked several questions to verify their experience.

Tokk'it had come from a Githzerai monastery on the other side of the mountains seeking aid from Overlook. The monastery is under attack by Githyanki. He asked for any heroes, adventurers & troops Overlook could offer. The city guard declined to offer up troops with enemies so near. Less than an hour after his arrival, the ship was taking off again, with Tokk'it and 5 adventurers onboard.

While the ship appeared to be somewhat new, it had recently been through some heavy attacks. There were a few holes in the hull and burnt areas everywhere. Tokk'it had stolen the Githyanki ship from the battle that morning. The Githyanki tried to catch him & bring the ship back, but their dragons couldn't keep up with the flying ship. He out ran them, but they weren't far behind.

On the way to the monastery, 2 Githyanki appeared out of the clouds mounted on red dragons. They engaged the ship & it's new crew, but couldn't best the heroes of Overlook. Tokk'it pressed on, intent on arriving at the monastery before it got too dark.

A third dragon rider was patrolling near the monastery. It came up out of no where & laid into his enemies more fiercely than his counterparts. This Githyanki champion proved much tougher, but still no match for Tokk'it's new friends. The deck was awash with dragon blood again.

During that fight, the ground troops spotted their missing ship. The captain of the "Sacrifice" loaded some marines & moved to intercept. Tokk'it kited them around briefly & then landed the ship (roughly again). The Sacrifice landed nearby & marines swarmed over the rails. Several of the Githyanki had admirable abilities, but most just died quickly.

After the fight the adventurers quickly assessed the situation. The Conqueror was near finished, but the Sacrifice was in good shape. Nearly 200 Githyanki were assaulting the monastery a quarter mile away. And the monastery's avalanch defense was still untriggered.
