The [[Forty-seventh Session]] commenced with the party meeting in council at [[Jalinbeti Citadel]], [[Jalinjeri]].  [[Panamon Cree]] addressed the Jalinjeri Council on how best to move forward regarding the scourge of [[Shardenzar]].


==The Council Chooses a Path==
[[Panamon Cree]] and the rest of the [[Jalinjeri]] cabinet met to discuss a strategy for dealing with [[Shardenzar]].  Following the advice of the cabinet guest, [[Obsidian Black]] proposed the idea of re-kidnapping the fire builder from the [[Sewoch]] portal.  The council agreed and [[Hedgewind Jalinbeti]] asked the part to assemble a team, within which he would take part.

The team ultimately consisted of the party, plus Hedgewind and the [[First Nightshade of Aspan]].  [[Asil]], unfortunately, had to return to the [[Aydahar Confederation]] to resume her duties as aide-de-camp. And so the party of five set out to explore this strange new land and hopefully destroy the bane of their existence, [[Shardenzar]].

==Sewochi in the Lava==
[[Mira Nephilim]] activated the portal to the [[Sewoch]]i world where they found the lava pits they had previously visited.  The Sewochi of the lava-loving kind retreated into the caves, presumably at least one of them remembering [[Obsidian Black]]'s "yeet" spell.  With none of them wishing to become further jellied, they move into the lava caves.

The party pursued, finding one of four caves to be traversable without stepping into lava. When they got through, [[Panamon Cree]] using his arcane eye, scouted forward to find a gang of Sewochi scouts at the first junction.  He also found a small cave to navigate past this junction and directed the party through it.  The Sewochi spotted the party, but not before Panamon enveloped them in maddening darkness, causing them to flee in every direction.

The few Sewochi on the other side of the small cave were very tough, but not a problem for the party.  [[Hedgewind Jalinbeti]] remarked with some small astonishment that his staff should have been blowing them apart, yet was only doing heavy damage.  The [[First Nightshade of Aspan]] gleefully tore a couple of them apart, while the party did their other attacks, Mira with a conjured dragon and Obsidian with acid attacks.

When it was over the pathway revealed a somehow tougher-looking Sewochi with the air of authority.  This "boss" held Jalindi, the fire-builder sister of Mira, entranced at the end of a small gold leash.  He was standing in a magic circle, which appeared to be quite similar to the portal they arrived on.  Mira was immediately convinced that she could operate the portal.

==T'ifati and the Circle==
The "boss" Sewochi contacted [[Panamon Cree]] telepathically.  Panamon in turn relayed the gist of the conversation to the rest of the party.  "You are too late," the boss explained.  "There is no need to fight.  Come into the circle and see the fate of your people."

[[Hedgewind Jalinbeti]] was the first to step into the circle and exclaimed to the Sewochi boss, "We're taking the girl."

Eventually, everyone in the party clambered into the circle.  Once entered the circle shimmered and teleported the party to what [[Mira Nephilim]] noticed was a very short distance from the caves.  

They came out on a plateau overlooking a vast valley.  The valley was filled with what looked to be over a million Sewochi of all descriptions and colors, green and soft-skinned, brown and scaley, white and furry.  They all seemed to be laboring toward a single goal, to create magic circles.  More than a thousand circles could be seen by the party from their vantage point.

"You are witnessing the end of Otan," the boss announced.  "Go, take the girl, tell your people.  Their time has come."

Upon that pronouncement the Sewochi boss abandoned the circle and the party and proceeded down the hill and into the valley below.  The party wasted no time in returning to [[Otan]], with [[Mira Nephilim]] controlling the portals.

==Player Notes==
Add some notes here if I have any (important) errors or omissions. 

Panamon instructed Zhanik Zaure to focus on crops that allow for maximum yields in a short season to feed the population quickly and for next season to prepare a mix of high protein crops with another half of high income-producing crops.  

Panamon instructed Saduakas Yermek to focus on recruiting artificers and magic shops to open in town and promote the province as an excellent place to do business with reduced taxation for magical suppliers/creators.

 ==Shardenzar Lies in Wait==
-When the party arrived back in [[Otan]], [[Obsidian Black]] was not disappointed to find that [[Shardenzar]] stood on the path to the portal in wait, much as he had before.  He chided the party and explained that they could not keep "the girl" referring to the fire-builder Jalindi.
-[[Obsidian Black]] responded badly, casting his signature "yeet" spell, sending [[Shardenzar]] way into the air.  Shardenzar fell back to the ground at considerable force, breaking nearly everything in his body that was once whole.  He was quite unmistakably dead.
-Meanwhile, Shardenzar had (apparently) been concentrating on an illusion that shielded a squad of six [[Eriquat bloodcasters]], which were revealed to be encircling the party.
-Is Shardenzar really dead?  Will the bloodcasters, get their revenge?  Can anyone in the party survive?  Find out next week!
