A Night to Remember

A Night to Remember (or Best Laid Plans Always go to Waste) is the final session in the first arc, A Demon's Revenge.

The session began at the Church of Inyel, where the party reviewed the plan to crash Lierra Rembria's Festival party.

Ventigne managed to infiltrate the party as an entertainer while Skye, Yabbi, and Chant staked the house out looking for alternate entrances. Kytheon and Sorshen entered the house as attendees.

Aside from being prevented from going to the second floor of Lierra's house, nothing out of the ordinary happened at the party.

After about an hour and a half, Skye caught sight of The Shadow. It was at this moment he decided to strike, sending Yabbi to make good on his threat of attacking the nobles.

While Yabbi was terrorizing Areda's nobility, Skye, Chant, Sonas, and Phoebe moved on the house. While Sonas and Phoebe entered the second floor, Skye and Chant entered the first through the servant's entrance. When there, Skye came face to face with The Shadow and saw a world in flames.

As the party began to assault the house, Lierra began the ritual to summon Oran the Defiler, a very powerful demon sacrificing her guests. The party breached through the floor to the basement following the demonic aura. Skye attempted to contain Nache, though she managed to slip through his containment. At this Skye became catatonic.

After this, Lierra finished her ritual summoning Oran. However, when she attempted to control him, Oran spoke a word of power and Lierra collapsed to the floor dead. The party attempted to combat the demon, though nothing they did seemed to have any effect. Oran cryptically revealed that he knew of the party, before departing in a tower of flame. During the confusion Nache managed to slip away.
