Prólogo
La historia comienza con Luna siendo dada libertad condicional, y siendo llevada a conocer a la capitana de la guardia del Reino de Dorgheshan, Axandra. Ella le cuenta a Luna que hoy va a conocer a la persona que debe proteger en su misión. Mientras le devuelven su equipamiento le dice que confía en que hará un excelente trabajo. Le da 20 monedas de oro y le cuenta que si completa su aventura, será concedida no solo libertad sino además una recompensa adicional, y que debería esforzarse en cumplir con la misión.
Mientras tanto, Mermelada se está despidiendo de su familia en el sector noble de Dharok’an. Su abuela le sonríe, y le concede un amuleto que dice tiene la habilidad de llamarla, pero una sola vez, y que hará lo que sea para ayudarla de ser necesario. A la vez, Alua, una espía de las Ciudades Independientes de Karuulm, está llegando a la ciudad, y es informada por una de sus fuentes que una persona de interés esta por irse de la ciudad acompañada de una escolta imperial, pero los detalles de su identidad son desconocidos. Le pide que investigue, y que los encontrará en la puerta oeste a las 17 hs.
A las 16 hs. Mermelada y Luna son introducidas mutuamente, y les cuentan acerca de los siguientes pasos en su aventura. Axandra les dice que tendrán que viajar a los puertos de Vherak’an para encontrar una embarcación que los llevará a donde requieran. Les entrega una insignia que servirá para darles acceso a cualquier navío.
Llegadas las 17 hs, su partida es interrumpida, dado que son emboscadas por un grupo de bandidos, que al ser derrotados se desvanecen en una nube de polvo. Logran escapar el combate sin matar a nadie, pero Alua escucha una conversación en la que hacen alusión a una reina, diciendo que ella no estará complacida por el suceso.
La madre de Mermelada, Fraise, le dijo que se encuentre con una antigua amiga suya, Leona, en Vherak’an, donde decidirán cuál va a ser su próximo destino. Ya acordó un transporte con el gremio de navegantes, y en secreto le pagó al Rey de los Piratas, para que el viaje no sea interrumpido.
Cuando llegan al navío conocen a el Capitán Torag, oficial Cookie, y el marinero Rawk. Torag es un ex-pirata alegre que se volvió cercano con Leona a través de una desaventura en el mar de los piratas al norte de República de Naugladur. Salen del puerto en apuro mientras son perseguidos por un grupo de bandidos tatuados, y luego de relajarse, Mermelada accidentalmente revela que su abuela es Frukta. Eligen viajar hacia Evaemon.
Luego de viajar, llegan a Tritanum, una ciudad portuaria. Ahí encuentran al pueblo de bastante mal humor. Muchas casas parecen encontrarse en deterioro. Hay un par de mercaderes extranjeros descargando mercadería, conversando con locales sobre el estado de la nación.
l -Yeah, sales are ever-declining, we’re lucky to get commerce from incoming travelers, but the
people in the countryside are having a rough time dealing with the increased taxes and fees.
f -That’s not good, are there any signs of change from the monarchs? things have been going
downhill for years now.
l -Nothing will change until the nobles get fed up with them too. Right now we’re dealing with
it by eating into our savings, and only spending on basic necessities. The change has been so
gradual it would seem like they’re slowly boiling us so we don’t notice.
f -Well, something should be done to remedy that, let the nobles know things can’t keep going
this way forever.
l -Here’s the thing tho, I’ve heard rumours that some lords are training more troops than usual,
seems like the cogs are turning, something is about to happen.
f -Seems like quite the scoop, let’s go somewhere more private, so you can tell me all about
it. Let me buy you a drink.
l -That would be wonderful, thanks.
There is a massive tavern nearby that despite the state of the rest of the town, still seems
to be fairly well-maintained, and is bustling with activity. Different people of all kinds sit
around tables, **(tieflings, aarakokra, genasi, humans, dwarves, orcs and dragonborns). The chatter
loud and lively, but the elves running the establishment seem to be in low spirits.
If they talk to any of the many travelers, they would find out that they come mainly from the
south, and some from Karuulm, and that they are traveling towards the great tree for the festival
of the moon that happens once every year, where the moon shines vertically onto Yggdrassil, the
tree’s flowers sprout all at once, and the pollen they generate is said to bring good fortune
to those who smell it. lanterns are sent skyward to remember the passing of loved ones, to have their
souls bound to the leaves of the tree.
They find near the circus one of the animals, a Whale Catshark called “Pato”. Pato was carrying a
sack with a strange box-like contraption, and a letter from lord Iorwerth (code Roe Withr)
from Evaemon, who asks about Iris.
During their travel they are ambushed once again by tattooed people, and the resulting battle ends
quickly with the defeat of the brigands, and the party decides to separate because of suspicion on the
reason the constructs keep finding them.
Sesión 1
Mientras viajan, un pájaro tatuado los comenzó a seguir a la party desde los cielos. Poco después, arriban en un pueblo vecino, donde el camino se bifurca entre la ruta hacia Yggdrassil y Evaemon. Mientras descansaban en una taberna, se tomaron turnos para vigilar la habitación de Mermelada, y durante la guardia de Luna, ella recibió una carta dirigida hacia ella, advirtiéndole dar la vuelta, con menciones de su
When they slept in a tavern, they took turns to guard the room, and during luna’s turn she
recieves a letter adressed to her, warning her not to keep going where they are going, with
notions to her previous alliegance and it’s adressed from “The Queen”. And during the same time
Iris recieves a vision while in a trance, telling her that a lack of trust can be more damaging
than missplaced trust.
Luna, Nube (Mermelada), Lola, and Iris decide to leave early, and during that day, iris tells
luna about her vision, while luna tells nube about the letter.
Alua meanwhile searches for someone of old age to ask about the kingdom’s past, and finds out
about the exile of old nobility to the shadowfell done by the queen of evaemon 1000 years ago.
In their travels, they come across a pack of Molten Horns, which they realize are being followed by
what they think is a purple wurm. that follows them all the way to the border of the city of
Yggdrassil, where, with the help of a local mage, they manage to repel the pursuer using the Leylines
to their advantage, which they are told by the mage are progressively getting weaker lately. Alua,
using detect maguic, manages to look at the leylines, with difficulty, and realizes

El jabalí carmesí

They went to look for a place for the molten horns to stay, and met with a farmer that suggested
they look for a druid that lives outside the city’s borders. They secure their help in taking care
of the molten horns, and maybe take them back to ignea.
After this they travel to the main city to sleep, where they stay in a cheap inn for 2.3 gp
Iris dreams of the full moon, and angus goes out at night and sees fireflies flying towards the
fields
The next day, they split up, Luna and Nube go to the library, and search for information, Alua
goes to her orginization’s hideout in this city, and finds it destroyed, with only one survivor
remaining, who gives her writing tools 30gp, 3 daggers, and a healing potion.
Angus, Lola, and Iris go to investigate the place where he saw orange lights in the darkness
the night prior. They find scorchmarks in the shape of footprints going towards the city
Angus sees:
1- tatooed (no)
2- fireflies (saw them)

war that she is not at her most powerful, and that many people are traveling from the Shadowfell into
our plane
Sesión 4
First thing in the morning, Iris goes to a magic store to try and find a Sending scroll but finds it
too expensive
The others order breakfast, Waffles with Dulce de Leche and Molten Chocolate.
They decided to go to the Temple in the Tree, that holds a library, to investigate.
Angus searched for information on Dragons, and found an important one who battled again Elisya, a queen,
whose name has been erased from history, and during which battle an artifact of great power was destroyed.
Iris searched for information on Thia, and found that many dryads have come and gone, and who helped the
city in times of turmoil, appearing also to enjoy the festivals. The dryads have had different appearances
and names, and never have two been seen at the same time.
Alua searched for information on curses and found an Ancient book from Elisya’s time, in which using
tatoos to create enchantments was described.
After this, they go to a tavern in one of the higher levels, and Alua casts detect magic. She’s
immediately knocked out, but before that sees that most of the furniture is made out of the same
wood Yggdrasil is. Iris performs onstage and rolls a fucking nat 20, and gets a Payday of 91GP for it.
Having eaten, Mermelada goes to look for ingredients to make a cream to combar her curse. It works
slightly, but her curse ends up developing a resistance to it’s effects.
Iris ends up buying the scroll of Sending and casting it. Her spell targets Lana and it’s description
is found on letters.txt
They meet up at the tavern and then go to meet with Tiryanwyn and tell him about their worries as
regards to the purple worm sighting, and the tattooed people that have been attacking them. He tells
them about the possibility of an entrance to thr underdark and a portal linking the area below to the
Shadowfell.
After that, they go to sleep and in the morning, try and find an entrance to the underdark. Wherein
they find an old unused door, and a room after that. The room contains two statues, one of Amara and
one of Fya, standing back to back, clearly angry with each other. The statue of Fya looks up and the
statue of Amara looks down.
Sesión 5
Prep:
If the party is to descend into the Underdark, I want Alua to make an Arcana check
if she is to beat the check (DC 15), she is able to sense, almost subconsciously
the fact that the nature of the magic around her, but not it’s intensity, has shifted
more and more throughout the descent. If she is to activate detect magic, she will
be able to see that the kind of magic it’s shifted to is necrotic in nature. And also
have to roll a DC15 Constitution check or be knocked out temporarily, and take a
point of exhaustion on a roll lower than 5. If she is knocked out, then she will have
a vision, of rising up through red, slowly opening her eyes to see around her the red
streams of molten magma, as the earth shakes and the magme surges with her.
After this, they decide to go back to the library to investigate before commiting to
the treck down the stairs within the tree.
Within the library, they find 3 books:
One is found by Lola, which has the details of the seasonal conditions of
Yggdrasil, along with mentioning a tome complete with everything known about it,
which they find out is only held by the leader of the druids.
Another is found by both Alua and Iris that lists names of gods in elvish
and has mentions of their domains.
And Mermelada rolls a nat 20 and finds an ancient book that details a war between gods
as an Epic.
Afterwards, they begin their descent into the depths of the Underdark, they walk
through countless steps, and on their way down, Alua gets the sense that the magic
around her is begining to change. She casts detect magic and gets almost knocked out
in the process but succeeds on the Constitution saving throw. With this ability, she
discerns that the magic around her is changing towards necrotic energy, with the nature
magic that surrounds the roots begins to deminish.
Once outside of the narrow steps, they find themselves in a massive cavern,
stepping into a lit up forest of giant bioluminescent mushrooms that grow alongside the
roots that reach even at this depth.
They begin exploring the cavern, walking alongside it’s edge past the light of the mushrooms
and into pitch-dark sections of the same cave. They are unadvertantly ambushed by a pack of
Voidmice, but are luckily able to push through and defeat them.
Still walking alongside the cavern’s edge, they find a steep slope into a tunnel, that
seems to emit light. Some of them charge ahead while others remember to tie down a rope
to ensure they have a way back onto the main cavern in case things go awry. Once below
they find the cavern is lined with bunches of bioluminescent mushrooms, unlike the giant
ones at the entrance before.
They tread through this tunnel and end come upon a cliff, they see a mist covering what lies
below, and see a narrow pathway going downwards. On the other side of the mist, they can see a
Temple surrounded by mushrroms that seems to have some activity as it is lit by torches.
They descend the narrow path carefully and end up at the ruins of an ancient settlement
the ruins are covered with mushrooms, which they realize might be feeding off of its decay and
rot, as there are no longer Yggdrassyl roots for them to leech off of. From within the center of the
ruins, stone steps going upwards, in the direction of the Temple. There’s also an intermittent
light coming from within, as well as vines covering the buildings and floor. The outer walls have
patterns and decorations.
They find within the ruins, a statue depicting 2 women hugging (Fya and Amara). Below lies
a plaque bearing their names, however it is in a language unlike their and so they aren’t able to
descypher it. The light they saw comes from the base of the statue from which the plants grow out
of. Luna casts comprehend languages and reads about a battle that took place here between a group
of goddesses including those depicted on the statues, and a different group of gods. The first won
the battle.
Combing through the town they also find a small pyramid with decorated walls. Alua and Iris
enter the pyramid, when Alua steps on a pressure plate which ignites torches alongside the
interior walls, which allow them to see that the pyramid is a temple dedicated to Amara, with
a statue depicting her likeness within, bearing a calm expression.
Upon an archway leading upwards, Luna finds an Inscryption saying “Beyond lies a passage
to where you should not go”
Sesión 6
Within the upper floor of the Pyramid, lies a ritual chamber, blood lines the floor and
pedestal within. Whoever enters feels observed.
If they go towards the Temple above, they’ll see tatooed people coming out of it,
as well as shadar’kai elves giving out orders. They feel an immense amount of power emanating
from within the Temple, and will need to roll DC 18 Charisma saving throws or become frightened.
They only find the corpses in the ritual chamber, and then go up to the portal thru the stairs,
accidentally alerting the tattoed guards to their presence before finishing climbing up the steps
After an encounter they emerge victorious.
They explore the portal temple, and see a statue of Kama (They don’t know who that is) and a series of
steps going up. They investigate the portal, and realize it’s a bit unstable and shouldn’t be open, and
then they go up the stairs, finding an abandoned military encampment, then going up they exit through a
church. The church worships the elven pantheon of gods, especially the wood elven ones.
After, they go to Tiryanwyn and tell him about what they found. They discuss the portal and come to
the conclusion it probably has something to do with the weakening of the leylines and Yggdrassil.
They talk about gods and their origins, mentioning the material gods and outer plane gods, and the fact
that they differ. After that they go to rest at the tavern.
Tiryanwyn tells the druids, and they investigate the portal during the night. In the morning, they
meet up, and they reafirm the correlation between the portal being open and the leyline issue.
They then decide to go into the church to interrogate the Priest. Alua and Iris ask peacefully but
don’t get much of an answer. After that, the priest goes into his office and sends a message thru a
magic bird. Alua sees this and tells the others to intercept it. They destroy the bird, and while they
do it, Luna interrogates the Priest aggressively and gets the information out of him that the queen
was here, that she charmed him, that they left around a week ago in a hurry, and that they might be
in the city of Evaemon.
