Plot Synopsis

Final Session - Boss battle
Co-GM: Spencer
Other GMs: Logan, Zachary (and their co-gms)

The party is back at the NVS Frostdriver when two parties appear in the frozen clearing outside of the metal temple. One they recognize, the other they don’t. They quickly realize that they all work towards the same goal of purifying the spirits that currently possess the Ars Machina’s Engine. Coming to this conclusion the parties board the obviously-not-cursed ship and the dragons lift it into the air.

It is a quick flight over the continent of Ruefang and across the sea to where the train will soon travel the leylines. After the party spots the train, it is mere moments before the spirits surge out of the engine- spurred by some force unknown to the party. Huangdi brings the spirits to the ship and the battle begins.

The spirits of Land, Sea, and Sky are fierce, but the parties fight valiantly. Eventually a person flies up on the half-metal water dragon, handing a core to the parties on the ship. The core- weakening the spirits they come in contact with- is passed between the spirits by the parties’ quick thinking before being passed back down again.

The spirits, now no longer protected by the engine’s magic, are able to be sealed with the weapons the parties have brought. Both the Land and Sea spirits are sealed within the weapons made by Bai Long, while the Sky Spirit is purified by the ancient relic that one of the parties brought. With the three spirits sealed/purified, the remnants coalless together into a hulking skeletal figure. The parties make quick work of the vicious spirit, and the battle comes to a close.

Before they can celebrate though, the NVS Frostdriver disappears below them (back to the Elemental plane of Fire from which they had taken it from), and they begin to freefall. The dragons are able to catch everyone before they hit the surface of the water though, and they bring the three parties back to the shore.
