What doesn't kill you gives you XP

After much ado, and a bit of heavy hinting from the GM, our secondary party finally decided to go to Ordulin Maelstrom, because weird rift-y sort of things in the sky. Turned out there was a portal where Uncreated were coming through. Red-Haired Lady was there ... as was Gond - wth?

After helping Gond and RHL - mostly Gond as RHL rolled poorly - we found out there are in fact TWO Silent Forges. The original one, Gond's creation which are (arguably) good guys, and the other one, headed by a Red Wizard of Thay, and we all know they're bad news.

Our primary party went through a mirror thing into a world which Yeenogh hadn't managed to progress through previously, because its god was dying and the world was falling apart and he refused to help her. Our party, obvs the Good Guys™, went in and said we'd help save her, her world engine majingy and her people, if she'd let us use her mirror to the next world.

Jumping from one mirror portal to another means we should end up back in our own realm eventually. At least in theory. Or maybe we'll just end up hopping from mirror to mirror in a sort of tent-hopping Deathly Hallows type deal. At least we have the next yay many sessions knowing what we're doing ...

“What doesn’t kill you gives you XP.”

“We’re not on his kill list.”
“Suuuure.”

“So far I hear a lot of you problems, not a lot of me problems.”

Player 1: “Is this Mordor?”
Player 2: “Yes!”
GM: “Noo?”

“Anyone have experience of portal-closing?”
“I will do after this!”

Player: “Are the Uncreated equally nice?”
GM: “No.”

GM: “She … misses, because she rolls poorly.”
Player: “No, because she’s useless.”

“I’m not really paying attention, I’m trying to save whatever sorry asses we have left.”

“… So God’s probably off playing golf somewhere. – Yes, I do say that.”

“You have invented television!”

Elani: “You alright with that, Yegnog? Eggnog?”
GM: “Yeenogh.”

Denethor: “Elani, you go help people. Gunda and Yeenogh …”
Player: “Look pretty.”
