№15 Catty business Archived

# Scene 1 (Grubfoot and Djeera in the Library at Druskenvald Manor)

• Grubfoot and Djeera told their story to the unnatural cat (Wisp) from the library
• Grubfoot talked about their recent activties here in Druskenvald
• Djeera told about their history, their backstory and how her blood formed the cure for the plague in Darrowvile
• Wisp seemed less impressed by Djeera, as if he already knows her story
• He has taken a book from the library that had a title directly referencing the events in her backstory
• Djeera tried to grab the book but Wisp didn't allow them, saying that her version of the story is merely one perspective and to know all of it at once would be a spoiler.
• He also had the new story by Grubfoot written down magically in a new book
• He then whisked the two away so he could talk with the rest in a less crowded room (so that everyone might tell their story, play their role)

# Scene 2 (Xalli at the Children's Bedroom in Druskenvald Manor)

• Xalli wakes up from their short nap, was it short? Time as a construct seemed unstable
• Luther was nowhere to be found as well as the Doll
• Xalli checked out the painting he remembered having to escape, it was now filled with the image of a children's toy
• Xalli moved to the hallway, quickly spotting the entire hallway covered in blood
• As she moved towards the bathroom where the blood came from she was scared from behind by The Crooked Man, a ghostly entity swinging around saying that "They couldn't live with the guilt".
• Xalli checked out the bathroom and quickly the door closed on her
• She then found herself stuck in the blood covered bathroom, the stench of it making her feel disorientated
• She tried to get out but couldn't because the door was completely locked
• She then heard a sound coming from inside the walls
• She checked it out and had an uncomfortable encounter with a biting Weasel

# Scene 3 (Grubfoot and Djeera on the Second Floor at Druskenvald Manor)

• Grubfoot and Djeera being transported outside the library looked around on what to do now
• Then they heard a sound coming from below, a scream for help of a familiar cat like voice
• They decided to look for it and came quickly to the bathroom
• Grubfoot tried the door but could not open it, they then unlocked it with their thieves tool
• They rescued Xalli from the bathroom, told them about what had happened in the bathroom in previous session and they all tried to go upstairs, where the rest of the party would be
• They then spotted Luther, but this wasn't Luther as they knew it, it was a version of him without any teeth and a long crooked smile.
• It growled at them seemingly ready to attack them at a moments notice
• Xalli didn't have any of it and felt the protection of their ancestry coming to help her, the spirital presence of Ichtaca, her step-uncle and elder was there to swiftly protect her as Xalli called upon a Holy Word and decimated the creature.
• This fake Luther exploded in paints of his skin tone and visage, covering the ground with load of paint
• Grubfoot grabbed an old antique vase and grabbed some of the paint for their project
• They all then moved upstairs

# Scene 4 (Grubfoot, Djeera and Xalli on the Second Floor at Druskenvald Manor)

• The group decided not to go to the library directly, as Xalli didn't know the Second Floor they just opened a door
• The group entered a Trophy Room
• The trophy room was covered with animal trophies stuffed in unnatural shaped and poses, even the colors of these trophies seemed off
• The group quickly spotted that there was a trap door leading to the attic that could be opened up
• They decided against directly confronting whatever was at the attic
• At that moment the trophy room started to make a blaring bestial noise, all the animal trophies started to make sound and they felt a psychic presence
• Djeera was hurt by this, thought not much
• Grubfoot went straight to the stuffed bear and cut its belly open, causing a female spirit to leave its body in a haunting bestial sound.
• The spirit left a Silver Pin up the nose of the bear as it disapeared
• This solved the issue at hand and Xalli started to rummage the place until they found another weasel jumping at them
• The weasel was taken care of and the pin was retrieved by Xalli.

# Scene 5 (Grubfoot, Djeera and Xalli go to the library)

• The group went back to the library
• The rest of the party at the Library were gone
• Djeera asks about why the others are gone
• Wisp says that time runs a bit different in this house
• Djeera remarks that it is not unnatural for people to disappear in a moments notice
• Wisp asks Djeera if she has figured out yet why
• Djeera has some ideas but does not reveal any
• Xalli meets the unnatural cat and it finally introduces itself properly as Wisp
