Eberron: Prophecy of Ascendence, Part 38

This week, our intrepid adventurers made it as close to the Starpeaks as the lightning rail would take them, and from there went to the mountains on foot. Recent seismic and volcanic activity made the navigation up to the entry point of the ruined temple that Lucky was searching for take a bit longer than expected, but they made it inside and travelled for a few hours in the darkness.

After travelling for a few hours, the group was ambushed by a small warband of large bat creatures, who they dispatched without too much difficulty. In the aftermath of the combat, they discovered another of the creatures who was tied up and whom they healed and tried the peaceful approach with, speaking with him at length about his race, known as the desmodus, and their role as protectors for the temple. Their newfound ally, who I can't recall the name of, also shared with them the philosophies of different factions within his race.

Not much was accomplished, but I think the session was a fun one. When we left off, the party was resting and about to head further into the depths of the mountain to discover what secrets the temple holds.

Look at us, talking to NPCs instead of just bashing their faces in.

a bit of roleplay doesn't hurt a hack'n'slash fest, lol.
