We pick up with session 2. The boys wake up and I decide to check the weather. For this I turn to a great supplement, Knave 2e. I have given my thoughts on Knave 2e elsewhere but in short "They system is so-so, organization of the book is terrible, but the numerous tables are well worth the price of admission." Here I will use the weather tables found on page 9. Roughly the same temperature as yesterday, clear skies with some strong winds.
The guys head to the monastery and I whip up a quick description on the fly of the layout of the place. I decide I want to see what the headmaster looks like just in case we bump into him (I never end up meeting him but damn the picture is kickass).
Luckily we do bump into a monk and he is pretty friendly and helpful. I randomly determine his name, Arlo, and use my Freedom Oracle to answer questions. The answers are really starting to form an adventure location pretty easily. We also comes across a ancient tome written in Middle Dwarvish, something I made up on the fly based on old, mission, modern English. I thought it would add to the flavor of the setting and add the feeling of age to the tome.
Sadly, we will have to wait until next session as this was a short one done over an hour or so one morning this week. What secrets does the tome hold and where will Rufus & Silas go next?
