Kuthona 8th 03 - Kuthona 10th 03 - Otto Discovers a dirty secret about his past perversions

The group arrive back at the castle, upon arrival Otto brings them up to date with the detail of events and his promise to Emissary. Miro offers his assistance to interrogate the kidnappers to Otto who agrees and sits in with the Halfling to understand their reasons for attempting to kidnap his son.

After some delicate persuasion Miro and Otto soon discover that the kidnappers are from the village of Ravenmoor, the nurses are non-other than Anya and Saul Lapescu who blame Otto for the death of their daughter Shel Lupescu and the kidnapping of their grandson who would be about 1 and half years old (see Sarenith 21^st 01 – Squeel! Little Pi…gg.y? And Sarenith 22^nd 01 – Children of the Corn).

Asking why they believe he is responsible for both events they screamed at him “Wht wouldn’t it be you!” he’s your son after all you probably did it to keep it all a secret from your new wife! Otto now feeling a little guilty and obviously partly to blame for setting events in motion for the kidnapping asks for forgiveness and insists that he knew nothing of a son nor of Shel’s fate, the two spit in the direction of the lord and say they should have done a better job at trying to kill in back in Ravenmoor instantly losing any chance of leniency from Otto as he orders their execution and requests that the midwife is brought in next.

The midwife didn’t really need interrogating as she seemed happy to divulge as much as she could, the women was a cleric of Gyronna, an evil cult that has set its eyes on Wyvernshore and its demise and when they had heard the sad story of the Lapescu family the cult of Gyronna had to help seek retribution.

Otto again orders the Gyronna cleric to join the other kidnappers in the same punishment and a kingdom wide purge of the cult of Gyronna. A public announcement is then soon made about the attempted kidnapping and that the kidnappers had been apprehended and have been sentenced to a public execution.

Otto asks Natalia if she would be able to scry from the missing child. The druid gives it a couple of attempts but each time the scrying fails, either the area where the child is being kept is very well blocked or on another plane, otherwise it could mean a much worse fate has already befallen the child.

With the mention of other planes the rest of the group felt that they should now update Otto on what they had discovered in the fey realms, the impending attack and now it might be possible that this missing child could be on that realm..maybe?

Upon hearing this serious news it was agreed to send out diplomatic messengers to the nearby kingdoms and warn them of the coming invasion of fey creatures and that Wyvernshore was building a force to fight against it and that should any kingdom wish to aid the fight then they should send troops to help bolster the forces.
