We made friends with Viconia, a Drow battle cleric of Kelemvor. We learned about the Silent Forge, and how it's headed by a red wizard of Thay (Elani's favourite people) who is also a lich. Yay, combo bonus!
And we finished off by getting an unsettling dream about three Orc gods who were now among the greater gods. What does this even mean???

“Get a PC. Join the master race.”
“I have a PC. It just runs Linux.”
“How do you kill a Baal child? Kill them and resurrect them!”
GM: “His name is Abazigal.”
Player 1: “… You can write that down.”
Player 2: “Abazi-what?”
GM: “Abazigal.”
Player 2: “Did he write the Necronomicon?”
“So in a Crimewatch way, he has known connections to Baldur’s Gate.”
GM: “Is anyone writing this down?”
Player 1: “We lost our note-taker a long time ago.”
Player 2: “And we still suffer for it.”
Player 1: “But the GMs don’t have to.”
“Should we take a boat up there and effectively smite the heathens?”
GM: “Have you named the ship yet?”
Player 1: “Godwoken.”
Player 2: “Why not just call it ‘Lady Vengeance’ and be done with it?”
Player 1: “Ahh, complete plagiarism.”
“No, not Vengeance, that’s not really us. Lady …”
“Serenity? Heart of Gold? Enterprise? Millennium Falcon?”
GM: “One of the crew comes up to you and suggests ‘Skywaltz’.”
Party (instantly): “No.”
GM: “There are some near misses.”
Elani: “Any involving Varion’s statue?”
GM: “No.”
Elani: “Damn.”
GM: “I’m not getting monsters prepared, I’m just moving papers around.”
Player (unconvinced): “Sure.”
Player 1: “Have we walked into the mouth or something?”
Player 2: “I am Muad’Dib.”
GM: “Cheeky.”
“I trust him like a character we’ve adventured with.”
“I didn’t even trust him when we adventured with him.”
“I didn’t make this character a pyromaniac, but me personally …”
“I look hurt, by the way.”
“Good for you. I don’t think either of us can help you.”
GM: “That’s one way of describing it.”
Player: “The correct way?”
“You hate the undead so much you must be an expert.”
Player: “We need to get to the heart of this thing so Gunda can kill it.”
GM (laughing): “With HER dice rolls?!”
“You spend the time to make an indestructible umbrella?”
(to Denethor, re: airship)
Viconia: “So what are you trying to compensate for?”
Denethor: “I’m not an interrogator. I don’t like killing things. I more enjoy creating things, unlike my friend here, who’s …”
Gunda: “Homicidal?”
Elani: “Aww, thank you! You flatter me!”
“Dungeons in a temple sounds like forward planning.”
Player: “Did he shit himself as a pigeon or a human?”
GM: “Both.”
Player: “Impressive.”
(impressed by Denethor’s crafting skills)
Viconia: “I could’ve done with you years ago.”
Denethor: “It’s not a parlour trick.”
Viconia: “Sure.”
Elani: “I LIKE her.”
Gunda: “Get a room!”
Elani: “Oooh, that’s an idea. This is why I need the Fertility word!”
“Maybe he has my skills, maybe –”
“It’s Maybelline.”
Gunda: “Denethor, why are you trying to turn Elani into a Necromancer?”
Player: “If we find their nest, someone has to say ‘‘S up liches!’”
GM: “Damn. I hate you. I was going to use that later.”
