Game continuation bread, where the party gets ready to wander off into parts unknown, potentially in different directions or to different areas. More bantz to go on in the meantime, but last bread got stale so here's a fresh one.
New players welcome/encouraged.

Nice pali
Thez is speaking to Trump, but her eyes are all daggers at Infernius.
"I mean, what do you think about the possibility that perhaps sealing the Terrasque might not have been the 'correct' method, especially with the prospect of liberating all involved to go back to and about their previous lives,"
>In the tower
Then that's where we're all at. It's a little late to stall the dialogue.

"A voidstone doesn't just make things 'go away', they cease to exist. If I or you touched a voidstone, we would no longer be. As in, no resurrection, no revive, not even the memory of our existence to those who have known us. All traces would vanish, leaving only the sensation that something has been forgotten. I'll ask you now never to even suggest such a thing. You weren't,... you were weren't you?"

Thez mutters something about trusting Jews.
"Its true that they're more rare, but I'll tell you this," her voice grows quieter and more somber.

"It's the same pattern for weeks now, everyday. I do something nice to her, or we share a nice moment, and then she betrays my trust quickly. We share a moment when the mechanics come and the cores 'vanish.' We share a night and then she vanishes from my arms. Now I heal her in the shooting range and have nice moments, just for her to try yet again to poison her child. This is every day. Every time I think have moved forward, I am pulled right back.

On that note, don't expect too much, I'm deliberately keeping NPC ranks low just because PCs are pretty fuggin' powerful as is. Having said, the trades and skill level of NPCs (as well as the number and diversity) has increased notably. Port Barry has become quite a 'thing' in-game.

Really, anything useful to Tracy (she can't really use most of what's on the list). There was a whole list of cool/useful things I wanted (Mask of the Skull), that weren't really within plausible reach for her. The first thing I thought of to upgrade the Nithing Poles into Darkskulls, to serve as cursed mailboxes for assassination requests, and to collect payments/offerings.
For now, since levitation is a 2nd level spell, I'll have her buy the scroll at the shop and get to work on some Horseshoes of Zephyr; since those don't look expensive.
