Whilst I have no idea of what you speak, I will be there and hopefully can help undo whatever harm has arisen from my actions.

I will try to bring any friends or allies that are free at such short notice.

May Harmony guide your thoughts, and Purpose your actions,

Could we not choose a slightly more auspiciously named meeting place? Given the fact one of my best friends is the high priest of St Michael, and if free of his many duties may attend this gathering, I would strongly advise a different meeting place.

It just happens to be close to your destination we can instead meet at the Pokey Goblin instead, just keep hold of your grulls while there

So, I was asked for a report on yesterday's mission.

This is just a preliminary report, there may be a more comprehensive one to follow. As I am awaiting further information and investigations.

There is a cult that worships the destroyer. They call themselves the Golden Harvest. They call upon a corrupt mix of black and gold mana, perverting the spells of my father so they act in a reversed, corrupted but most potent, fashion upon their foes. Their power does not flow from the gold drake, it is granted by the destroyer. But as my father grows closer to ascending, he is perhaps more vulnerable and less able to stop such a corruption.

This cult had captured several gold draves, to fuel their rituals. Only one of whom we were able to rescue. And many more gold draves were found defending their chambers. Flecks of black about their forms were the only clue something was wrong with them. As best as I could ascertain, they willingly served the destroyer, mainly because their lord had chosen to do so.

We also found a very potent and uncorrupted gold drave, seemingly still alive but perhaps unconscious. Protected by a divinely empowered golden golem aura. He currently rests within the gold tower of magery in Halgar and I hope may have some further information, if and when he awakens.

The corruption seems to be sourced in a fragment of the Spiter's body. A horn I believe, that was somehow empowered at the same time as the Gold Drake. I do not believe we located this object. But a lot of the time I was being kept quite...busy, whilst others located things we needed. So there may well be quite a lot I do not currently know about the finer details.

After dealing with a couple of sites of power, and a large lair of these cultists, we found our way to the heart of this place. Therein were four rituals. They comprised all powers, but with one in predominance. One was bound with powers of black magic, one with fire, and one with knowledge. There were only 6 of us still remaining at this stage, and only two of us had any experience or ability with rituals. The rituals needed to be dealt with simultaneously, at least so I believe. And time was an issue, for we had travelled through a portal that would soon close. As such the best we could do was deal with the main ritual, which had a golden focus. And break the link to one of the other rituals. We chose to deny access to knowledge, believing that to perhaps be the greatest threat.

This means that the link between the gold magic granted by the destroyer, and the powers of darkness and fire was left intact, it was beyond us to achieve more.

The main ritual, golden in nature, was 1 of 13 such rituals. Named the keys to the harvest or somesuch. I have requested all information the Arcanum libraries holds on such a ritual, and hope I may discover further information about these in time, with further study. I do not know the location of all these rituals, and until all are dealt with, these cultists of the Golden Harvest are likely to remain a considerable threat.

I know several papers were found with further information. Bob, of the celestial heavens, has promised me copies as and when his duties allow. Which I will of course share. Included were the sites of further incursions by this cult, and likely to be the location of further parts of this ritual. Including the Far North. And Scarlene, apparently chosen because viewed as a soft touch due to being home to the Shaehan faith. Similar to why they had chosen Deci for this site, the belief being these to be places less cared about by the Empire. So any other such sites likely to follow the same criteria.

The only paper to be handed to me so far reads as follows:

"I understand that you are visitors, and may be helpful to the land. I cannot tarry but I suggest you seek me out. I must journey to the desolation as things are very bad there. It may be dangerous to follow but it is vital you find me. Miranthea."

This is a lead we did not have time nor opportunity to follow, indeed I only knew of it at the very end of the day.

Whilst I did not attend this mission, or write this report, for financial reward, it was nonetheless offered for such a report. For the first time in my life, my costs exceed my funds, so I will welcome such, it can be left for me at the gold tower, I will be there frequently until the drave awakens.

May Harmony guide your thoughts, and Purpose your actions,

Sirac Drakeson

*this report is submitted to Jackson, the hirer. And to avoid spam, would also be posted for the KOTL and Highborn Assembly.*
