SAGA Log 1448: The Jade Throne
Strahd, Pylia, Blue, Drizmar, Blood, and Goldy saw that the "Death Clan" barbarians had all been killed. They knew Veersalla had a team going after Suishen and now realized that group had killed the tribe. They followed the blood trail over the next ridge, where they found the "Angel of Death" lady in her planetar form, her basilisk mount, her boyfriend the empyrean, some undead minions, and 4 remorhazes. The team flew over the ridge and defeated the enemy team.
Blood plane-shifted them to their Feywild Palace to rest; they told their tales to Fluter. Blue left the gray dragon skull with their mage-smiths to turn it into a steam-breath helm. Pylia meditated, communing with the ancient emperor in the Suishen sword, learning that Kya's family was the ancient rulers of Kara-Tur and that they sat on the Jade Throne; he wanted her to find a Kara-Tur prince who would lead her to a lost library with knowledge of how to free the spirit of Suishen. Blue tried to attune the the "Angel of Death" greatsword, but it was cursed and they had to destroy the sword.
As usual, Force Green engaged in great strategy planning (plane-shift, scry, invisibility, teleport, silence, wall of force, etc.) before entering a huge battle at the Jade Palace with the Jade Throne; they skipped the quest to find a local prince with knowledge of the lost library and went right into the throne room battle against the current Jade Emperor (who turned out to be a demon in disguise with an army of oni samurai, human guards, spider demons, etc.). The ancient gold dragon sworn to defend the throne was forced to enter the battle, but Pylia held up Suishen and convinced the dragon to help them. The heroes and their new gold dragon ally defeated all of their foes; the dragon then convinced the servants to respect Pylia as an interim leader.
After the battle, they went into the secret family vault and met the ancient balenorn guard, who gave up his blood to allow Strahd to engage in blood magic. In celebration that night, Blue went drinking and ended up impregnating a random human woman. The next day, Pylia had meetings with nobles from the city. Goldy went to find the local prince with the info about the lost library. Strahd finished the blood magic potion and they used the interplanar scrying orb to find Kya, Borngray II, Borngray I, and Glora - who were trapped in a demi-plane prison room connected to Firth.
Blood plane-shifted the team to their Feywild palace gardens and they used the blood magic to pass through the "Godwar Barrier" and rescue their 4 trapped family members. The groups updated each other. Glora and Borngray I went back to the Sapphire Coast to help fix politics on the Sword Coast while the group took Kya and Borngray II to Kara-Tur to rule over the Jade Empire. They gave Kya her family vault key and the sword Suishen. Goldy was still on his mission so Pylia magically messaged him to let him know to report back to Kya and Borngray II, not the "Core 4" team.
[Next time the group wants to have Borngray II speak to Corellon, find out Veersalla’s “1 way to die” and where she is and see if Corellon’s god allies will join in the “Godswar.” They are considering going to Firth themselves...]
