Burgess — Session 02 (May 7, 2022)

• Competed for poetry — failed utterly
• Played the ring toss to regain ego — failed still; replayed until won a spider and wine; traded wine for face paint
• Tried tail of the dragon, got another spider, traded for wine
• Went to see the mermaid — she got heckled and fled
  • Her beloved’s voice was stolen
  • She’ll return if we recover the voice
• Investigation turns up that the person who lost the voice is Candlefoot the mime
• Talked to Candlefoot; mimed that his voice was stolen by a troublemaking kenku
• Did snail racing — came in fourth; Acesis came in first
• Visited some more rides; found the kenku, talked
  • Patron is same as patron of the carnival
  • Making trouble to get attention, trying to find patron
• Returned the watch to Mr. Witch; agreed to find patron, and part of that will be sending us to where our lost things are
  • Gave advice: “Mind the rule of three, past present and future, find the alicorn and free the dormant queen at last”
  • Went through the mirror: “Hither thither here and there, wander yonder show me where”
  • Mirror also showed us aging from youth to death
• Went through the portal; ended up on a highway; climbed down a long ladder with footholds
• Ended up in a swampy region; saw in the distance a hot air balloon start to come down
