| The party meet at the church of the founders and are seen by Elior, keeper of the flame. He informs the PCs that he has had a vision regarding the restoration of the Holy Candelabra of the Founders, and is looking for people to help. All they need to do, is get on a boat, head south-east, and follow the portents until the flames relight. After some discussion of what form these portents are likely to take (Elior doesn’t know, but is confident they will be obvious), the party agree to take the mission. Heading for the docks district and boarding a ship. | The party meet at the church of the founders and are seen by Elior, keeper of the flame.

| Shaken by the visions, but with the knowledge that their job is complete as all 4 of the candles now burn fully, the party leave the council building. Outside they are confronted by Melinda Salic, who confronts the party for the murder of her father Darak The Leader, Allyssa The Tender, Tarkus The Builder, and Lynndis The Warrior. She brands them a Traitor and sentences them to death for the murders and for Treason against Acryn. Shortly after Melinda and her guards attempt to carry out the sentence, with Melinda demonstrating herself to be quite an adept binding and fracturing mage. Eventually the party are successful, and the echoes fade around them, leaving just the image of Abraxis impaled with 20 or 30 swords. A fifth flame appearing in the centre of the candelabra. | Shaken by the visions, but with the knowledge that their job is complete as all 4 of the candles now burn fully, the party leave the council building.

| ===== Outcomes and Metaphysic ===== | ===== Outcomes and Metaphysic ===== | ||
| - | {{tag>"relight my fire" adventure}} | + | * Victor Darrish gains the Truly Favoured (Traitor) quirk. |
| + | * Victor Darrish gains a permanently blood stained right hand, and a metaphysical connection to the Traitor. | ||
| + | * Anders suffers from a sympathetic wound with The Warrior, resulting in a random encounter during an adventure where she is both WEAKENED and immune to STRENGTHEN. This also results in roleplay (i.e., non mechanical) boughts of lethargy and weakness. The connection with the Warrior may be relevant to other things at GM discretion. | ||
| + | * Geoffrey Weathers suffers from a sympathetic wound with the Leader. He suffers from a slit throat that can occasionally make it difficult to talk. He gains access to the [[:skirmisher#fast_talk|Fast Talk]] ability. The connection with the Leader may be relevant to other things at GM discretion. | ||
| + | * Paige suffers from a sympathetic wound with the Builder. Her hands are permanently flattened (as if cut from a single sheet of paper). She gains access to the [[:journeyman#jury_rig|Jury Rig]] ability. The connection with the Builder may be relevant to other things at GM discretion. | ||
| + | * Vincent suffers from a sympathetic wound with the Tender, a dagger wound piercing the heart. This makes strenuous activities difficult and results in a massive dry-cleaning bill. He gains access to the [[:journeyman#medicine_-_healing_hands|LIVE DAMMIT!]] ability by placing a drop of blood from the wound upon the target. The connection with the Tender may be relevant to other things at GM discretion. | ||
| + | * Anders has a shield which is both shattered and not shattered, an echo of the Lord of the Rock smashing the Shield of the Warrior somehow made manifest in a single item. The item is holy to both the Lord of the Rock and the Church of the Warrior. (Potent artefact creation component). | ||
| + | * The Candelabra of the Founders has been empowered, and provides an additional use of Gaze of the Gods (Traitor) per Adventure to Priests of the Traitor carrying it. | ||
