Sins of the Father II (Raikougan, Cahyali)

Plot Synopsis

As the sun goes down on the party's first day in Toyeto, the group watches as spirits grow restless. A band of ghostly samurai enters through the north gate and fights their way through the town, cutting apart bloodhawk spirits and civilians alike. The party tries to assist them in their war against the bloodhawk spirits, but it's about futile. The battle rages on for about an hour, and in the aftermath the party speaks to a civilian spirit, who reveals that the same events play out here every night, and it won't stop until the anger of Toyeto is assuaged. They sleep for the night.

Ji meets a mysterious man in her dreams, who tutors her effectively in Dragon Warrior techniques and teaches her to control her emotion in the midst of combat. In return for his help, he asks that she find him a string of prayer beads, hidden somewhere within the Kasai forge.

Rilo goes to the old forge and speaks to the spirit of his grandmother, choosing not to tell her that he isn't Niko, his father. He watches her go about a routine for a while, then steps away. The group enters into the Toyeto underground, wandering through the decrepit area. It's covered with skeletons; casualties from the siege forty-five years ago. Eventually, they find the vault door to the forge: a huge, locked piece of metal. In front of it are the corpses of a few Kasais, strewn among many bloodhawk bodies. Their last stand.

The party solves a puzzle and enters the forge. Inside are several side rooms, where the Kasais' blueprints and documentation was kept. Wei finds what he needs: a low-content adamantine alloy diagram, and explains that he hopes to build a conventional railroad across Ruefang using the knowledge gained here. Ji finds a diagram for a massive mechanical golem, and sees an incident where it was softened by lava and struck by the forge hammer, becoming severely damaged in the process. Kentaro finds several weaponry diagrams, but Rilo and Wei refuse to let him take them from the forge. The two debate for a while.

Ultimately, Kentaro agrees not to take the diagrams, and burns them. Seeing only one way forward, they continue into the main forge room. Up above is an alcove built into the wall. Zeo flies up and finds a string of prayer beads suspended between two magical circles. He grabs it, and the entire wall of the main room activates into a colossal mechanical golem...
