Session 26 - Elysium

The party transported themselves to the City of Prince Talisid in Elysium. Upon arriving, the party found a tavern to get cleaned up in. Caedryll played music for the crowd and made some friends, who directed them to the palace of Prince Talisid. Nedra found a circle of druids in the city and made friends with them. They gave her a bag of seeds for magical trees which she wanted to plant in her druid lair in the Feywild.

The party proceeded to the palace and entered the court of Prince Talisid. He sat on his throne listening to music. Caedryll joined the ensemble and played beautifully for the Prince. Talisid stepped down and approached Caedryll, who asked permission to play a song for the Prince. Talisid asked Caedryll if he knew a very obscure song, which Caedryll knew and played for Talisid, making him weep. Talisid told the party to look for the Zenythri Preceptor with a cervidal named Lamones. Upon finding Lamones in his tower, they were told that he had given the Preceptor to a group of elves, clearly from the Army of Revolt, who had just left. Lamones said that he had not yet taken a side in the great conflict in Sigil and assigned his servant, a foo-dog named Caluso to lead the party to the elves.

Caluso led the party not far from the city to a glade. Within the glade, Jeddak felt a strong connection to an inter-planar portal which had recently closed. He saw a unit of 50 or so elves massing in a pocket dimension to attack a village on the plane of Arborea, where they would certainly kill everyone. Jeddak found he could modify the exit portal to open a mile away onto a field with a farmer and his family, who would also certainly be killed. Quickly weighing his options, Jeddak decided to send the army to the field, but had some guilt about the deaths of the farmer's family. He was able to re-open the portal soon thereafter and the party attacked the group of elves, killing half of them, causing the rest to flee, and taking a single prisoner. The discovered the Preceptor among the possessions of their prisoner. They went to the farmhouse and Jeddak performed the ritual detailed in the Velvet Tome and found that he was now able to speak and read Zenythri. From there the party sent a hasty message to Pylympe requesting that Slyy meet them at Beorhisto's Tower and  transported themselves there. Slyy was waiting for them when they arrives (time is funny in the Astral Plane). They gave him their prisoner and sent him with gold, gems, and relics from the Abyss to sell and buy some equipment for them.
