Living Guild Pact

Cevraya ∾

Helped us when we handled crazy people in Medori Park, with the worm attack on. She sacrificed her right of succession by visiting the surface to help us stop the plague that made people crazy.

We asked her for directions to the grave of Razkra where we believe Jace is. She tells us that we where at the funeral a week ago, Vazzix remembers something vaguely.

Jace ∾

When we are getting close to the tomb an illusion if Jace appears asking us to turn back. It vanish again. We carry on and it repeats several times. Jace tells us that we have lost every time, asks us to turn back.

We considering is there is some memory wipe, or time traveling going on here? When we finally arrive at the tomb it's overgrown with Jace laying over the chest asking us to leave. We try to talk him down, he reveals that we have been here every day for a week. Each time we whips our memories but we are returning over and over again repeating the pattern. This time I ask to get our memories back "to have a proper conversation" and he returns them.

We hoped to be able to solve it without combat because he is really powerful, but he starts combat like the last times anyway. This time we have our memories from the last times we fight with him so we have an advantage and are able to get him to calm down finally.

Xovus used Speak With Dead to spek with Razkra body. This did not give us that much information but it did distract Jace during the fight.

We noticed a darkness over him, something where affecting his mind. We where able to get him to collapse and then later on clear up his mind. He got out of it with no memory since last time he was at Ravnica before he disappeared the first time.

After the the fight, Krenko arrives. We blasts his people with fireballs and we win easily. We catch Krenko and Losty uses magic on him to sugest that he will ask Mr Taz to meet us.

Jace Sanctum ∾

We have been in the sanctum before when we looked for him. This was before we where plane walkers and the books and notes made much more sense now.

We talk about the book if the ice age that the silver handed man tried to steal, The Eternal Ice: A Chronicle of the Age of Ice by Egal Tiram. He tells us about an being in ice, travels between planes. Book written by this entity. An entity that destroys worlds and drives them insane. It's called Marit Lage (note the books authors name, read it backwards). It has since then been sealed away in a ball of ice back in the ice age on Dominaria.

Maybe she is free, maybe she is lose to Ravnica considering the insanity that has started to be more and more common here. The plague that we helped with earlier is just one of many similar problems that have occurred recently. Then of course, someone did affect Jace mind to.

He tells us that he has no memory from the time his mind was affected. The metal armed man is his adoptive father, he has not seen him for a long time. His name is Tezzeret. We did grow up with the Growl but where thrown out of the guild.

Jaces memory had been repeatably whiped over and over by Montor on Wrin. He worked for Tezzeret chime syndicate for a time.

Jace has opened up his sanctum for us so we can enter it. He is considering to try to restore the office of the guild pact, maybe try to restore the laylanies.

Meeting at the opera ∾

We have a meeting with Mr. Taz at the Opera, a wondrous Rakdos performance with explosions, death and blood. We are introduced to Tomik Vrona and Orzhov law mage, one of the best and has studied under Teysa. He is also the boyfrind of Raul. Pivlic, the casino owner. Krenko and finally Mr Taz.

Krenko is not there mentally because Mr Taz had ripped Lostys magical spell out of Krenkos mind. He did still think a meeting again sounded like a good idea so he still set one up. Where all where very open about everything together, they know that Jace, Raul and us where plane walkers. Taz did most of the talking but he is really cryptic so it's had to get a good answer from him. He did once again tried to convince us to join their cause.

The chasm was not their intensions, they only like to make chaos to move their people in the right places. This did not work out exactly like they liked but Taz is really old, as old as the original guild pact, so over 10 000 years old, maybe more. He has been guiding Ravnica from the shadows since them, tweaking and affecting outcomes.

Later on we talk and tries to figure out who Mr Taz is. He is really old, are several people. Care about Ravnica (in his way). It was suggested that he may be a world soul of Ravnica. If that's true he is even more powerful that we suggested and maybe we should not mess with him?

We also realized that the living guild pacts is bound to Jace, a human. He will not live for more than another 60 maybe 100 years with some magic. The new guild order with a living entry to enforce the magic is not as stable as the old one based in pure magic and laylines.

Meeting with Niv Mizzet ∾

We setup a meeting with Niv Mizzet to rescue Raul that Niv have captured. Raul was captures when he did not play ball with the project lighting bug research.

We where greeted by Chembelarin Marie at Nivix. She did not recognize us, and was confused when we asked about her age. We think she was a clone and not the same one we talked with earlier at Rauls lab.

We talk with Niv Mizzet, he figure out that Izkri is a plane walker and one more... he do not know that Xovus can plane walk. He tells us that he has experimented with cloning for some time and he has been studying Raul and is trying to understand his plane walking ability and tries to clone him. It do not work.

Molmir Meg is and old Selesnya leader that Niv is cloning and is used as a scientist. An earlier clone was the one that created dash, and the current one is experimenting with Raul. Niv gives us permission to collect Raul if Izkri assist Niv with his plane walk research to protect Ravnica, something we are not that found of doing because we are afraid of what would happen if Niv figure out a way to turn him self to a plane walker.

Clones do no last that long, some a few years. But Niv can just make more and modify the memories. At the moment dash was made was there two Molmir Meg clones active.

After a tea time with Niv (he loves tea), he shows us a teleportation circle that takes us to the lab of Molmir Meg where Raul is.

Fight with the clone ∾

Niv told us that he did not control Niv Mizzet and could not order him to release Raul, he was to fixated at the research. He was correct and we had to kill the clone to free Raul. Niv seamed fine with it when we returned from the circle. I guess he can just make another.

Xovus was briefly turned to a whale during the fight when he was stabbed by a mutation dagger.

Raul is back ∾

Raul was quite hurt and out of his mind from the experiments that had been done to him. Jace was able to bring him back mentally and we healed him physically. We then had a discussion with Raul who was part of Mr Taz group and we learned a few things.

Lavinia was part of Mr Taz group as well and she is on the run. We scryed on one of her old friends Micha Gift and followed him down to a hide out in the chasm below what once where the chamber of the guild pact. It worked and we found Lavinia and she was convinced to come back up to street level to help us to free Teysa who also was on the run but she was found and jailed. The idea is to free her and help her overthrow the Obzedat like the original plan was. Xovus do not like the idea but recognizes that this is the best for Ravnica long term survival, especially with the external dangers that may cause a threat.

Back in the day, Lavinia and Tesa did try to run things between the fall of the old guild pact and the formation of the new living guild pact.

Niv has expelled Raul from the Izzet guild.
