Moravia
Hello all,
Let's resume our game tonight, if everyone can make it. A quick recap of where we're at:
While Dion has been aloof, as she tends to be, the rest of the adventurers have learned that Moravia has been buzzing with reactions to the sudden emergence of the Baker's aggressive marketing campaign. The town has responded by cracking down on the Bakers' wares by outlawing the free distribution of magical food. The magical cult's actions were met with a mixed reception from the city folk, with some peasants expressing regret at the food's destructive power, and others struck in awe at the potential for better living through magic.
Anticipating the Baker's Initiation ritual, the adventurers have been scouring the town for any kind of clues that could provide direction, but their search for some kind of absolute worth fighting for has only made the picture less clear. In a land where no group seems to have their bearings set, one hesitates to pledge their loyalty, lest their powers contribute to some unsavory scheme. Bits and pieces of information about the magical cults have been assembled throughout your time in Moravia:
The Bakers - the first circle you've fallen into. Notable for their attempts to generate publicity and reform the city. Headed by the mysterious and erratic Nebuchadnezzar. Alden Tyёmnen is expecting you to show up tomorrow morning for some kind of Initiation. Recently the victims of what seemed to be a small bandit raid, although the Bakers did not seem overly concerned.
Serpent - Rumored closest allies of House Chisari. On guard against the Bakers. At one point, had ties to the secular government, but those bridges have been burned (?).
Cowbell - the most superstitious of cults, who swear by the teachings and vision of a wise goat herder. Known to attach cowbells to goats and study the acoustic relations among the moving herd. Premier numerologists of Moravia.
Glorious Lattice - inspired by a desire to understand and appreciate "life" in all forms. Members will insist that space is discretized on the smallest of levels, and they are devoted to understanding how the world emerges from some encoding on the lattice. Headed by Erlin Spellslinger, wisest and seemingly most level-headed among the cult leaders.
Enclave - most diplomatic among the cults, although they can come off as pretentious. They have incredible organization, although through a system that is hardly understandable to outsiders. It is known that decisions are reached through a complicated voting system that incorporates magic in certain contentious cases.
It's the early afternoon, the party is currently investigating the distinctive etchings found on the spear used in the raid on the Bakers, and they've been pointed towards the workshop of renowned tinkerer and herbologist, Thaddealus.
Apologies for sending this so late, let me know if tonight at 7pm is a good time for you.

Hi Master
Alas, Dion must remain aloof tonight. She has accepted a contract with the Yali cult. Her mission? She will be hunting for that most mystical of elements, Yismuth, which contains boundless power that will unlock the mysteries of Moravia. As a tiny bonus, she will fashion a Yismuth dagger that has never been known, it makes the carrier invisible and backstabs for +10d6 damage.
Aragonette has gone flirting with an African grey parrot. She will not be in Moravia at 7pm.
