So to dispel all questions about yesterday's meeting, here is the summary...*clears throat and activates narrator voice*
When we last left our heroes they had come to the final showdown with their nemisis Lord Skull. It was a battle full of spell slinging and close calls, but then when the Badger of the Gods, then Captain Avi Brocktree called forth for the man's destruction and through sheer luck Lord Skull was completely eradicated both body and soul. With spoils in hand the party boarded their personal shuttle and flew off in the direction of Caladon.
When they arrived they finally delivered the book to Professor Alum. Though the university was unable to give them much of a tangible reward, it did promise to erect statues in their honor. From the University they were summoned to the country's capital of Black Keep. Once there they had a meeting with the Black Countess, she awarded them a medal of honor (The Sword of Nero), and gave them the rank of Majors in the army. After this she brought them to her personal chambers where she told them that in reality they were to find her a massive starship capable of leveling cities. To prepare them for this journey she gave them the ability to draw upon the national vaults and a book about space. From there Tatsumi went on a shopping spree that enabled him to provide a different type of service to the Black Countess. When the shopping was finished, the party launched into space, in hopes of finding a weapon capable of turning the tide of a war that had yet to begin.
Once in space the party was able to discover a mobile weapons platform that had drifted away from the planet ages ago. Once aboard the vessel the party was able to discover that it was failing and they wouldn't be able to stand on it for much longer. Then Tatsumi leapt outside and made his way to a power platform, where he discovered that the power crystals that the platform used were completely destroyed. They used the crystal from their own ship to bring the platform towards Edar. Sadly once there they were going to crash through the surface, but using a large amount of spells that would increase Avi's perception of the world, he was able to understand just at the crucial moment before impact that mass, strength, physical form, etc. were all mere illusions and knowing this he was able to push the platform into orbit (this was of course after he'd become a ball of pure energy). Once all was safe, they returned to the planet, only to learn they could not claim their reqard from the Black Countess without a way to power the platform, so now our heroes need to find crystals to power the orbiting behemoth before it once more drifted out to space, but where could they get such things...
