Chronicle - The Plane of Water

Plan of Action

There were no ships at harbour, or normal trade vessels docked, at Fontainver. Houses were fortified and archers posted everywhere, prepared for war. Stocks of food, water and weaponry were being put in tactical locations around the city. Milai's captain confirmed that the fleet was at sea due to the threat of being caught at anchor; the ships were about three leagues out and down the coast, but in contact with the city should they be needed. A great warship, which was to be the flagship, was under construction. Findorsfelt was held by Orcus, and the region to the west. Malenwe travelled north in an attempt to bring the traitor elves back into the fold by confronting her father. The men of Farass were not aligned at the moment, and their land was to the far west. Malor held the far north, and the lost souls were somewhere in that region. Orcus held the nearby forest, but not the bridge just to the west of Fontainver. After a strategic update, we were at last able to rest. Again, though, we were all gifted visions of various kinds (although it might be nice to just have a good night's sleep once in a while) and compared them when we met the next day (see the separate notes); mine was a very positive omen and gave me heart!

Lanzi communed with Si Lung in the bay of Celinas, as he was concerned about the balance of the planes and the Plane of Water in particular; our visions had told him that Hattori had aligned with the Drow! Si Lung warned him that the Princess of the Plane of Water, the Olyhydra, who had powers similar to a deity, but was currently engaged in battle across the outer planes in order to gain control of some. This was most unusual for a being that should only be concerned with the inner planes, and her lack of attention had contributed to the imbalance between the elemental planes. The Sea Elves had been leading support against the Olyhydra, hence in her rage she tasked Hattori to bring her Milai! Si Lung offered to help us to reach and survive on the Plane of Water, but could not commit to fighting with us.

Lanzi also spoke to Dracor Augusta, who was flying over the mountains of Madur, and explained the concerns over the imbalance of the inner planes and our intended actions.
