Zelas' Journal Entry #6 (Session 22)


Well... today was interesting to say the least.  Canna and I started off in our hotel room, as per the norm, she can't be out during night so we get to have fun.  The rest of the party we separated from so we don't actually know what they are up to just yet, not til we meet up again, was going to plan to do that at night again, maybe talk in that back alleyway, but it didn't seem to work out to my expectations.  In the morning we headed off to the jail, more specifically the jail I was held at for a bit of time.  Reason being to collect a bit more information.
I was lead to what appeared to be the head record keeper of the jail as Canna had to sit out in the waiting room, I don't like leaving her alone like that, but it was the only way I could talk to the person to answer my questions.  I asked about a certain someone from long ago and discovered he was kept at the jail for three years before being moved off for public execution in the capital, I don't quite want to lose hope he is dead yet, but I was lucky enough to escape because of others intervened, his luck was probably not as good as mine... I suppose I have to look for a gravestone then not a man.  I also asked about another, a dashingly handsome man with a silver tongue, me.  I learned that there is indeed a bounty upon my head, one of one thousand gold pieces, though if anyone is actively pursing me I couldn't obtain that information, but I am able to, maybe, at the bounty offices, maybe even throw them off the tracks a bit.
Afterwards Canna kind of went odd.  She wanted to go back and see Jadeis again, talk to the man again.  I didn't know what she was going on about at the time, but I trusted her and we made our way back to the Raven Queen temple.  We managed to get another meeting with Jadeis and Canna didn't really waste time.  She wanted to know what made the man tick, why he was doing everything.  But Canna hit a sore spot, very sore spot, Jadeis' family.  At the mention of them, and continuation of talking of them, he grew angrier and angrier to the point where he threw us out and swore that the next time we met he would kill us, we only escaped because we were in the city at the time.  This seemed to upset Canna, she couldn't get to talk to the man, actually know him, but he is our enemy now, if we see him again we should strike, and feel no pity in doing so.
We made it back to our hotel room and we were waiting for night before heading out again to the others to see what they came up with, when we got a message from the front desk that there was a woman waiting to see us and she lacked tact... by a lot.  I knew it was Serriah from that description and told her to hold off the guards and that she worked for me and probably just had new information.  We headed out with her to the abandoned temple of Sehannine where we met up with Darrek and Dahlia.  We went inside, which had a very odd fog to it, to a crystal coffin.  Inside the coffin, a woman holding the staff we came here for.  We opened the lid, which I swore took in air as it moved, and Canna went for the staff.  Then things got weird...
Everyone was knocked out, lying on the ground, I sound off seeing if everyone was okay and... my voice was not mine.  In fact it sounded quite feminine.  This befuddled be as I sat up and looked down and all of a sudden I had tits.  I was actually in another body, in Serriah's to be exact, while Serriah was in my body.  Canna and Darrek and done the same switch, Canna in Darrek's body and Darrek in Canna's.  Apparently Sehannine likes to fuck around with people... and she got us good.  The entrance was blocked and the only way out was a trap door we found next to the coffin, so we went down and hoped that this was only temporary, as we came across some mechanical zombies?  Only way to really describe them, although flesh they were constructs using machine parts.  I got to learn what it is like to fight with a bow, which is vastly different then how I like to fight.  I like being up close, seeing the life escape.  Having this distance between me and everyone I was aiming for was odd.  But somehow I actually managed to make the arrows go to the targets I wanted, or at least close to them in some cases, I guess muscle memory of Serriah was taking over, I just had to point with my mind.
We dispatched several zombie constructs and ended up in a giant room, where we took care of even more zombie constructs.  As the last of the others died, we all heard a loud booming voice, Darrek, in Canna's body, seemed to recognize the voice.  What the hell did we just stumble into?
