The Legacy's Lure, Recovery and Revelation

My apologies for the delay in posts. There are many notes, photos and outlines of the upcoming adventures so more is soon to come, life simply got in the way. If it's been a while, feel free to revisit Jade Regent: What Came Before or Fires Over Brinestump: The Rusty Dragon Inn for information on our heroes and to get caught up on the action.

Our heroes return to Sandpoint to rest and recover after their confrontation with the skeletal samurai and the undead survivors of the Kaijitsu Blossom.


  • Antax spends the week at Koya's meditating on the fear he experienced after coming so close to death. During that week, he goes through a psychic and physical metamorphosis and refuses to see Ameiko.
  • Rillka takes Shelalu's advice to heart and spends the week people-watching at the Rusty Dragon, trying to reconnect with life among people.
  • Paz gives the cold iron wakizashi found in the Goblin Death Cave to Ameiko, then goes to Harold's smithy to get the magical wakizashi, "Whispering Shrike" fixed. Harold finds a tiny scroll case in the broken handle and gives it to Paz.
  • Paz returns the locket found in the S.R.M.'s lair to Harold. After realizing what it is, Harold storms off without a word. Paz finds him curled up behind the smithy, crying. When Paz confronts him, Harold threatens him to back off. Unfazed by the bravado, Paz grapples him in a hug that Harold eventually gives in to. Harold is wracked with sobs for several minutes before finally breaking away with a quiet "thank you".
