We got underway and had to stop for food on some planet where women are the laborers, which annoyed Angel a *lot*. After that, we landed on Gigakuli, our destination. We met some Solomani traders here on a somewhat similar mission to ours (but not as well-backed) and the lone representative from the planetary government, who gave us the lowdown.

Next week, we have to start convincing people that being part of the Imperium may not be so bad.

Hack seems to be obsessed with the most strange little things -- starting fights over actions that didn't really happen. I'm not sure what is going on, but we're going to have to simmer him down before he gets us all killed.

He acted this way soon after he fell over and veridium fell out of his nose. I've noticed similar psychological changes.

He wants to protect us, apparently at all costs.

I spend some time provoking hack to explore this behavior, and in the end he hacks the little peylor sack to bits. Apparently this is not such a good course of action.

I had started to theorize that we are dependent on veridian -- we had discovered this condition one other time (before the rescue of claris) - clearly we need to move towards a solution, as i fear this condition might grow worse.

We send claris off to sell gear and buy some scrolls. Two hours pass, and we are assaulted by undead. We mop them up but expend a lot of spell resources in the process.

An hour later, another wave of undead....

We met and decided where we're going. There's some TL-5 world just outside the Imperium a couple quadrants away that may need some investigation. There are rumors of trade goods coming from there, but no one's really heard from them in quite a while.

We ended the night as we made the first Jump away from Uzdiki.

Having defeated the Rahotep cult and sent his ass packing back to his non-god grave, the party turned their attention to bigger things. Trying to move on to New Reumann, the party discovers that slaying Rahotep has created instabilities between the desert location he was at, and most smaller waygate destinations. As a result, the party is forced to return to a major city -- Grayhawk.

We meet at a warehouse titled The Marsall Cooperative.

Sir Cassele D' Messul - Knight - minor noble. Processing shipments of beans, etc. Loading on our ship

On the Tri-D, we see Angel in a chair, joining others at a press conference for the TMC.
Blah, Blah, megacorps rocks.
Turned to Angel for questions to the press:

"We told that this effort is not profit, but we're certain to find lost tech."
"Anything we find will be sold and used to fund the cooperative"

"Former criminal (Scott's character)?"
"We think Scott would provide a unique background."

"One member of the Zodani drones. Is he stable?"
"I have met with Mr. Brant, and he seems like a fairly well adjusted person to me"

"Intelligence on the Rain Wind is actually piloted by a Cym?"
"Not sure if its true, but the Imperium acknowledges Cym's as citizens"
"What it goes rogue?"
" It's no worse than any other member going rogue"

Cindy Schneider, Imperial Gossip network: "Korey's back story"

"We were wondering if they really thought that you can do any good when no one else has?"
"We are working with worlds that are being held back"

"Can we interview your crew members?"
"No"

It has to be taken into account that those poor adventurers were not to blame. Overmatched one could say, they have found themselves prisoners of the one they have valiantly pursued. But I digress.

[ Ruins of Urilaulri, Coldlands Territory ]

A small group of adventurers, who had - for the past few months - been a thorn in Tetra's side, finally made the mistake of entering his domain.

I am not certain if I can trust you, but I know that I cannot trust the Chancellor, either.

You took my research from me, and I would like it back. I think that my notebook has the answer, but I'm not sure the form it will take.

I know that he has captured your friend, and as a token of my good will, I can help you save him. But you'll need to bring the things you took from me. I'm fairly certain that you're not just mindless killers, and hopefully you won't prove me wrong; I think our goals are at least similar.

If you can help me, I can help you.

Valgar watched Kyleth carefully as she paced menacingly.

"But we have let them live. Just as you wished mistress."

Just as the party prepared to ditch the skull into the Maw, Yorn took off (with the skull of course). He had some off-night demon adventures, and eventually found the party while they were lying around. Then, I had to leave for work before they dashed off to the most nearby source of doom available.

"Coldlands Weaponry Inc.: Serving the Greater Ronkan Empire since 373 CR."

The rail gun ammo packs also has "EXPMNTL: R/D SS-171" imprinted on one side.

After handling the rail gun ammo for an extended period of time, you notice that it seems to feel... funny. Sometimes when you pick up a clip, it seems to "fall" into your hand, and when you set it down, it seems to pause ever so slightly before it hits whatever surface you're putting it on.

An empty clip doesn't behave that way.
Empty clip behaves normally.

Yorn heard the harsh voice behind him and was surprised to learn that he could understand the guttural language that was being spoken.

"Halt or die!"

Damn! Jake was right thought Sakura. She had only casually listened to his rants about the man in the past. Having grown up around police officers with her daddy being chief and all. She had never really put much stock in Jake's musings.

Kyleth cackled as she appeared at her fortress. Confident that no one could defeat her, she placed the orb in it's pedestal. The soft glow suffused the room in a bluish light. She could feel Ulyiad's power gaining strength within her. But she had not counted on the drawbacks of using the demon's power to infuse the orb.
