Session 26

10th cycle, 36th day, year 5850
After much discussion on how to proceed with their new-found info, the Green Gems decide to trust Sergeant Jones with the intel, as the list found in the little black book includes several prominent names, including Kraznik and Captain Bluescale (Head of the guard in Dorador), Melville (noble family), Paquin (noble family) and Iricha (noble family). Also on the list was Yazir Two-Horn.

Sergeant was surprised and horrified, but helpful. He set up a meeting between Captain Farik and the Green Gems, and they managed to convince him with setting a trap, as proof was needed against Kraznik. 

So during the High Council meeting, the Green Gems broken into Kraznik's mansion - again - and at the meeting, Farik laid out plans to counter the coming invasion with a bold move which included moving the entire army of Dorador into a spot in the jungle to surprise the invaders. 

As suspected, Kraznik hurried home to make contact and warn his allies. Using magic he spoke through a bowl with water with someone, warning him, but was told not to worry, and just stick to his orders, after which he wrote a letter. 

As he finished the letter, the Green Gems came out of hiding and engaged him and his magic. He promptly summoned an efreeti and his bodyguards came rushing in. The battle went back and forth, in and out of the mansion, but ended with Kraznik being carried away, barely alive, by the elemental creature. Luckily, between his coded ledgers and the coded message to the Fire Knives that he had just written, there was ample proof that he had conspired with the invaders against Dorador.

After days of trying to convince the High Council, which has Kraznik on it, the Green Gems grow frustrated. In a desperate move, they sneak into a noble's daughter's birthday party and confront the Duke, thinking the High Council is keeping things from him. Unfortunately that is not the case. And when Bebe decides to pull a fast one and accuse Kraznik without proof, he is tossed in jail and excommunicated the following day.

The Green Gems arrive at the Zankara tribe' s village, located between a lake and a small mountain. With the help of magic, they almost manage to sneak through, but something happens and they are separated. Hours later, they are reunited.

10th cycle, 29th day, year 5850
Having fled miles away, the Green Gems stop to rest for the night. In the wee hours they are attacked by a lot of moon elves and a Night Wisp. The battle is not going their way, and when the Night Wisp joins the fight, things look as if they might end there, that very night. Suddenly a red dragon lands, threatening the Night Wisp, who opts for a quick retreat. 

Tyraxolar is the dragon, and he confirms a lot of things for the Green Gems. 

10th cycle, 30th day, year 5850
Going back to the forbidden ruins, the Green Gems note that many more Yuan-ti seem to have arrived and set up tent.
