Day 32 (S18-20)
start going to Taste Trees, End after a fight
Rina 27 of Contract , 8 , 1? (6 of DI)
We learn that Rosa probably had a stroke that night, and it was imperative that we take her to the Taste Tree Forest as soon as possible. Rina gets as good of an idea of where to Scry as possible, and gets a vision within the tree’s height radius of the area. She describes it to Kin well, but he does not do super when getting us there.
We go in with Rosa on a cot, Neely following us, Kin and Aurelius carrying Rosa, Alice in front, Rina in back.
We get there to see everything is huge. Giant, in fact. we hear footsteps and a chant from far away “I will be the biggest lizard, snatch and grab and eat their gizzards…” Exactly like the Giant Snake, and also similar to the Goblin and ogre. possibly part of the greatest prophecy ?
Day 6 / 14 of the 2 weeks of diplomatic immunity
Started out in the Taste Tree Forest . Rina immediately takes over for Kin so he can maneuver us through the woods better. Alice becomes a large bird and looks above the trees for a big open area that looks like a large tree would have canopied an area. She does see an area that looks like it is a 2 hour walk with the lady in tow.
We give Neely the armor from Gabrielle and the dagger that Rina got from Alice.
Using pass without a trace, most things around don’t notice us. But we do run into one giant ape with many arms.
Rina attempts to talk to it but it was very protective of the are that the Taste Tree Stump was. It said there was a curse on the woods, but it was more of a blessing to them.
Kin tries to dominate beast and fails, so it begins combat.
Alice changes into a dinosaur and picks up Neely, Aurelius, and Rosa. Kin and Rina fight the gorilla. Rina doesn't want to kill it, but Kin isnt letting up. Neely throws the dagger and hits it also.
Eventually it decides to run away, so we book it to the stump.
We made it there and got the lady up. Rina goes straight to the center of the tree to try to get a bit of the Evertree's heartwood. Kin looks for a seed.
Rosa tells her story about how her husband cut this tree for her, and his efforts ultimately lead to the success of Pennislovica. This happened about 70 years ago. The tree to be used as the mast of a great ship ordered by the Freys, right around when Drake and Godfrey didn’t want to rule anymore with him and Sullivan Frey started his Solo rule.
We got her to the center of the stump and she felt the cuts, reminiscing, knowing each one was for her.
She then put her hand in the hole that Rina left, and she passed - nearly immediately becoming part of the stump herself. Kin found a little live sprig that he decided to try to get to grow from the center as well.
As we begin to head toward Therius, we hear the deep voice of a TRex rhyming about the greatest prophecy and eating people.

Rina Day 8, 27 total day 6 DI
Start in the taste trees. A t-rex, which we think is just a giant weird lizard, sees us and starts to charge toward us.
We all attack it, it tries to hit with both tail and bite attacks. Its goal was to eat all the Witches, and whatever they eat turns into monsters in their bellies.
Neely ran away, Kin keeps a distance, Aurelius and Rina attack it. It bites down on Alice, seeing her as the most “witch” among us. It bites down on her.
Alice turns into a giant crab, which breaks her out of its mouth. After a few more rounds, Alice gets put in its mouth again, and it takes her nearly to 0 hp.
It begins to rip itself in half, a weird giant black creature emerging from its belly. Alice beings to glow and begins to chant things - different from the monsters here.
She says she’s the comet that fell to earth. The End Medallion came out of the bag of Colding into Alice’s hand. Her body looked like a set of scales, the medallion in one hand and the other empty - there was a imbalance to the “weights” of her hands.
She spoke:
"As it was written, so it shall pass
the cycle has become a spiral, the spokes have rusted from the iron in the soul-bound blood
the whirlpool is beginning to deepen, bulling the future into eternal ruin
as it was never written, so it shall pass.
I am the pebble that tips the wagon
i am the stream that buts through the mountain
as it was never written, so it shall never pass.
i am Pradhana, the world ender
as i have written, as i will see it pass."
As the t-rex died, its soul got sucked into the medallion and balanced the scales. Then Alice blew up and destroyed nearly everything around - except Neely.
This destroyed the Taste Tree Stump, Rosa, our sapling, everything.
all get inspiration from role play. kin uses his almost immediately.
We made a Tiny Hut to sleep in and rest
Rina wrote to Enoch Agronoch again.
