Star & Scale #14
Hemlock Calls for Aid
11/19/2022
Star and Scale watched helplessly as the Abishai not only flooded the barge checkpoint entering the prison, but also as several more barges, all presumably filled with Abishai, slammed into the previous barge, bursting the barrier and sending all the barges into the prison proper
The group left Turin to fend off the fiends at the checkpoint and they ran back to the bridge entering the prison
Before crossing, they heard mechanic crashing and stones collapsing the front entrance, assuming the Grunt had been awakened
The group found Hemlock Bastille's front door open and made their way to the office of Taravyn Hemlock, who was having a discussion with his daughter, May, who was still bound in chains
The group explained the break in, and wasting no time, Taravyn freed May, gave Star and Scale the key to enter the floor below where the prisoners were kept, and entrusted them to ensure Omnia was not released
The group descended below, leaving Ezekiel to guard the entrance to ensure Omnia didn't escape while they were searching the cells
Star and Scale fought through a group of Abishai, heard a prisoner calling for aid but left them locked up, and battled down into the second floor of Hemlock Bastille.
