The Dance That Drinks Party
Back in Claw House, the research continues. Harvey teleports back to where the troglodytes had their camp, but doesn’t find them. They are assumed dead. RIP.
We learn that the dragon we tried to murder is going on a rampage, and has done some serious damage. This will likely be bad for the party.
A few days later, a mysterious drow man shows up in Claw House, and warns Harvey that the party is in danger, and cannot stay here. Harvey and Wondermitch teleport away to the Troglodyte City we had previously been to in the Underdark. The mysterious drow man then meets with Edith and Tim, warning us of the danger, and we depart. Along the way, we learn his name (or, rather, a name he often uses) is Zan. Edith sends Harvey a few messages, but the two groups decide on staying separated for now.
Shortly thereafter, Wondermitch finishes his legend lore, learning much there is to know about The Dance That Drinks:
The Dance That Drinks is the limb of a Dark Tapestry entity, which takes the
form of a weapon so it can feed on mortal souls. Wielding it requires a pact
with the entity itself. The pact must be made voluntarily. Communication with
the entity can only be done from the Realm of Lost Hope, where a ritual must be
performed to open "The Red Door." Getting to the Realm of Lost Hope can only be
done from the Abyss.
Meanwhile, Zan, Edith and Tim get far enough from town that Zan prompts us to stop for food. Edith says she’s alright, but Zan insists. He dismounts, and changes into the dragon we tried to murder, and breathes fire upon us. COMBAT!! - Edith runs away, Tim tries to fight. It’s all very sad. The dragon murders us relentlessly. RIP.
Back with the remaining party, Harvey and Wondermitch figure out their next steps. They know they need to somehow get into the abyss, and perform a ritual, but they don’t know the ritual to perform.
