TLDL;
We start a new chapter of the campaign after the whole party perished last episode, this is the email they recieved:
On the northern continent of Dreyfeld, you are being chased by many members of the Cult of Flame [or The Legion of the Five Flames as they call themselves]. You seemed to have stumbled on a place they were protecting/ worshiping/ consecrating etc. Sometimes adventuring doesn't go as smoothly as you hoped.
Just as you think you can't run anymore you see a ship leaving port and you heroically leap to as it is casting off. You find out this boat is going to the small and mysterious island of Ur, Not quite far enough away to escape the Cult of Flame forever, but a good enough start.
-------------------------------------------------------
Info Dump
- Year 300 DA3 [13 years have passed]
- The Empire of Acelea which once was open and thriving has now closed it's doors to outsiders and ramped up its military prowess
- Many think this has something to do with rumors that a massive army lurks beneath the surface
- The past few years have been unseasonably warm, different deities have conflicting view's why
- You've known each other at least long enough to have been given this most recent job.
- A job on which you received from an ARES Centurian named Kaeso [Kay-SO] Titius in the large town of Talgos on the Western Shore of Dreyfeld
- How you ended up in Talgos is up to you, how long you've been there is up to you.
- Dreyfeld was known in ancient times as part of the "savage lands" because of it's cold climate and unhospitable creatures, but civilized folks have braved the two Northern Continents in recent generations and began building successful settlements
- The Island of Ur where you are headed isn't a place many people have gone. It is most well known as being a disputed territory between Wayfeld and Dreyfeld yet remains independent from each.
The PCs run from the Cult of Flame
The hop on a ship names the "The Wise Fox”
The Cult of Flame members stranded temporarily on the docks blow a magical horn which makes the sky open up above them and rain hell goblins down upon the ship
They make it to Ur and see that The Cult of Flame is following them in their own ships
When they land they are greeted by the harbor mast who is wearing a Cult of Flames pin
They Quickly go to the local in “the Steel Rose”
they meet a Blue Dragonborn named King who is also from out of town, but gets along with the Cult of Flame
We end the session with the harbor master entering the bar and King calling him over to the table.
