This Session[edit source]
Continued from The Journey to the Metal Peak
The Metal Peak's Embrace
The pursuit of Lexanna Brightshore culminated in a valley dominated by a strange metallic and stone mountain. Following fresh human-sized prints into a cave at its base, the party found themselves immediately trapped when two internal steel doors silently sealed their exit. As they approached the next set of doors, they slid open, revealing an unsettling foyer dominated by a cylindrical well sealed by iris-shaped mechanisms—clear evidence of an advanced, unnatural structure.
Echoes of a Lost Crew
Moving through a door sealed by a pulsing black opal, Balmaris immediately discovered skeletal remains wearing alien, gypsy-like uniforms of strange texture. This was no traditional dungeon; it was a scene of long-ago disaster. Continuing down the passage, Durmen and Nail found more remains, including a desiccated husk of a human in armor. Durmen salvaged a glowing diamond from a crushed automaton, which pulsed with electric energy, confounding the party's magical senses. Balmaris also discovered a kitchen construct slumped at a counter—another machine stopped mid-task.
The Malfunctioning Servant
The party's curiosity was piqued when they encountered a third metallic figure, a large sweeper construct, attempting to clean the skeletal remains in the dining hall. Noting the machine's stiff movements, Durmen cast Mend. The spell successfully smoothed the automaton's actions, causing it to quickly finish its task before marching out of sight down a side passage. This strange success demonstrated that their magic could affect these metal inhabitants.
Conflict and The Strange Cure
Durmen soon spotted a large chamber containing a beautiful human female figure—a sight that immediately brought Lexanna Brightshore to mind. As Balmaris recklessly rushed into the room, the figure snapped up and, with lightning-quick movements, fired two rays of energy from a metallic wand. Durmen was immediately immobilized by the blast. The ensuing desperate battle saw the woman/construct attacking with a hidden blade while the party struggled to land telling blows.
Nail's Divine Smites were the only attacks that inflicted damage, causing the construct to leak oil and smoke. Durmen, recovering enough to act, cast Mend again, causing the woman to stop attacking and enter a brief fit. Once stable, she fixed a strange, wiry smile on Durmen and, in a final, shocking move, swiftly jabbed him in the neck with a syringe that protruded from her index finger. The party stood frozen, unsure of what had been administered.
