Events
The celestial beings begin the battle against the group. During the battle Cassius takes multiple critical hits and just prior to his death uses magic to delay the hit that kills him. Heskell appears, speaking in infernal and summons a demon to fight, Elisabet.
After the group defeats the other two celestial beings, Malacki and Auriel, Declan offers them conversation. Cassius falls as his delayed wound burst open in a spray of blood. While the group tries to stabilize and heal him, Declan begins resurrecting his two fallen comrades. Sundara teleports them all back to manor, but Heskell stays behind.
While everyone regroups, heals Cas, and updates Dunsparrow, Heskell teleports in. He says everything went well and he and The Scourge Angels have come to an understanding. Varrick asks Heskell about his curse with The Circle of Ruin and Thistle and his symbols on his hands disappear. Heskell tells them how Elhorn has a secret vault that holds safeguards on his assassination. To be successful they will need to complete a specific set of task, including getting into his secret vault and destroying his clones.
Dunsparrow pulls Cassius aside and tells him how Heskell is prepped to be the next king of Langston when Elhorn falls. She recommends Cassius help Heskell because it will lead Cas to a position of power.
Quote
“Power is just how you get what you want, it doesn’t matter where it comes from.”
That afternoon, the group works on various personal projects. Cassius making adjustments to his polylute. Sundara makes clockwork trinkets with the help of Varrick and Samugi. And Samugi holds a formal tea ceremony. Cassius as he falls asleep is teleported to a crystalline stage that reverberates as Faraday comments on the groups collection of The Pieces of the Inevitable despite him saying he was interested in them. He states he is going to send an associate of his that will be leaving with the artifacts as his timetable is moving forward. Cassius tells him that he has seen what Faraday is going to do, thus he’s changed my mind and won’t given the Pieces to him.
