Dungeons & Discords

 We began this quest on November 11, not but a year ago, yet for the characters it has only been a few hours. In the village of Courserton, a decently sized town with green fields and forests filled with tall grass and paths, taking place roughly in between Princess Luna’s banishment and her return. It started with a strange dream with a mysterious fog, and a voice calling for help. With a jolt Bishop, Savene Slaptop, Slag O’Mallet, and perhaps more awoke and immediately left to find the one who called out. Luckily for them there was a flash in the sky and a creature shaped object falling from the sky, and a keen sense that this was what they were meant to follow.  On the way to find the creature in need, a Bigug(big bug) attacked each of them. Savene instantly smushes the bug into bits, while Bishop gave hers a whack, but it ran away. Eventually the three found the one who made the call, and she was calling again. It was a reindeer, and she was being chased by another Bigug, it seemed to be the very one that Bishop let get away. Entering the clearing in the forest, Bishop and Savene teamed up on the Bigug, with Savene distracting and Bishop landing the final blow. They then proceed to argue and insult each other, scaring the deer.  During all the "excitement", the deer passes out due to low stamina and health. Not knowing what to do or where to go Bishop and Savene attempt to feed the deer, but it is unconscious, so it can't eat. As they are about to leave to find supplies and help for the deer, help and supplies came to them. Slag entered the clearing confused at the sight of what had previously happened. After Bishop and Savene explain what had happened, Slag offers to help. They agree and start heading back to town, where they meet  Mend, a local potionry and medicinal specialist. She brews a special tea that helps the deer regain health. While it is being made Bishop and Savene give their back stories as to why they're here.  Bishop had escaped from a treacherous torture factory that mistreated cows and sold their milk, called Happy Moos Dairy Farm. After sealing her freedom, she fled south to spread word about the farm in hopes something could be done about it. Savene however had much less of an honorable reason to be here. She was drunk. She had made a bet with a green mare, and drank a lot of strong drinks and didn't say how exactly she got here, but that's likely because she didn't know.  As the deer wakes, she begins to cough. Unaware of where she was, she stated her name was Aneira, and asked for help getting back home. She was from a small village in the Frozen North, that was being attacked by an Umbrum. Bishop and Savene agreed to help get her back. Aletris suggests they go out and get supplies and gives them some Bits to buy them. She also started a brew of health potions for them when they returned from their shopping errand.  Leaving with the money, Bishop, Savene, and Aneira head downtown to the shops. The first building they enter is a small wooden one filled with books. Inside, Bishop attempts to consume a lead bell and promptly chokes on it. They also have a mannerly discussion about capitalism. Afterwards Savene finds a brand new weapon for Bishop, a pencil. Leaving the librarby the party sees an assortment of other buildings of interest. Among which they find a lemonade stand and purchase a few cups. After which Bishop attempts to fly and fails miserably, then Savene picks her up and takes her for a fly above the trees. While they have a discussion after their joy ride, Aneira wanders off. Savene immediately flies off to search but has no luck. Bishop continues calling for Aneira and glances into every building, eventually finding Aneira, who had wandered off to Slag's shop. Savene flew all the way out of town in her search, but returned in vain.  As the party enters Slag's shop, he introduced himself for the first time. After introductions are made he offers his wares. Bishop purchases a 5 meter rope and a pint of lamp oil, Savene purchases another 5 meter rope. After this Slag shops them off, and they head off. After that was the one year anniversary of this campaign. I had the idea to recap to celebrate the year, a few days later I began typing this recap, and finished on November 15. You then proceeded to scroll to the bottom without reading any of it, because you already know what happened. After maybe being called out you scrolled further down to view an image I made in a few minutes, using previously existing assets.
