 **To Safety** <sup> Session 3 </sup>\\ **To Safety** <sup> Session 3 </sup>\\
 +Fleeing the crumbling inn the heroes encounter Hunt, a mercenary from The Chain, who points the group in the direction of the sewers and a safe house but is taken by a flying demon and dropped to his death. Guiding the civilians the heroes make it to the sewer entrance, dodging demons and their war dogs, patchwork soldiers created from the body parts of the slain. In the sewers Rae uses her knowledge and cunning to lead the group to the safe house but discover it is already occupied by radenwights((rat folk)) calling themselves the Blackenblues led by Tch’dorit but come to an agreement to share the space.
 +
 +With two leads to escape Octavius, either going to the docks to see if Captain Oriole's crew have left without her and taking her ship the Revelation, or work with Tch’dorit on using the sewer system to get passed the city limits. For now, having reached the safe house they rest as demons prowl the streets.
 +
 +**Rest & Revelation** <sup> Session 4 </sup>\\
 +Taking time to recover from escaping the inn and the dangerous streets the group socialise with those they saved, discussing with Artistoxilath (Arti) and Captain Oriole about their two main options to flee Octavius, one being seeing with Oriole's crew has abandoned her or if they are still docked and waiting if they're even alive that is, other comes from Tch'dorit and his clan to navigate the sewers following them under and away from the now locked down and guarded city gates. During their rest Rae begins investigating on enchanting her armour, Eidethos begins learning infernal from Halcier, and Halcier himself begins honing his skills.
 +
 +The following day the three successfully find a path back through the sewers to the port, where they find Captain Oriole's ship, The Revelation, still docked and in good condition. Boarding the ship they discover Oriole's first mate, Lamprey, has taken up the title of Captain in Oriole's absence and as much as they respect Oriole they don't intend to stay put as demons and their wardogs take control of the city. After negotiations Lamprey agrees to wait a bit longer for the group to return with Oriole and civilians.
 +
 +Backtracking and helping the civilians the three offer a spot on the ship to the Blackenblues as thanks for letting them use the safehouse and request of their assistance in a fight in things go south, luckily for all drawing steel is not needed as they guide the refugees aboard, dodging wardog patrols. As soon as they leave port Lamprey returns title of Captain back to Oriole, demons only noticing the ship leaving too late to intercept.
 +
 +**Revelations on the Sea** <sup> Session 5 </sup>\\
 +With a crowded ship and little supplies, the Revelation and the people abroad make a brutal journey North to the Fridged Coast, battling weather, sea-sickness, and water elementals, they make it to the city only losing two of Captain Oriole's crew. The group finds themselves in a busy harbour of other escapees from Octavius, upon making port the Captain Davread of the Oxtrad army confronts them after the Apprentice War Mage Owyn cast a spell and pointed out the three heroes and Colm as smelling like the Hells but is quickly explained as them going into a portal to rescue Colm from Colm who was dragged through. Arti is pulled up shortly after with the Davread asking about his armour, claiming either Arti is a defector or stole the Oxtradian armour he currently wears, Rae steps in and helps cover for Arti.
 +
 +Once the refugees are settled in a camp within the city Tch'Dorit explains he and his Blackenblues will set up a new home here, or if they are unable to do so, move further inland. Captain Oriole does the same explaining that she and her crew will stay a few days to resupply and recover before heading out to sea again, she also offers a permanent position aboard but the group declines. Both the Tch'Dorit and Oriole thank the heroes for their efforts and if paths ever cross again or if help is needed to seek them out. Rae and Arti search the city for any members of the Love Accord, finding that the few that were here had recently left Southward to Octavius, procuring horses and chasing them down the two convince the Love Accord enclave to return to Fridged Coast to think the next steps through properly, citing that Octavius has been lost and they're marching to their deaths. Meanwhile Halcier helps the community and gathers supplies, being rewarded with a potion in thanks, and Eidethos spends time sharing information with Owyn at one of the Oxtrad army posts, and does further study into the Infernal language, hierarchy, and portals.
