S7 E20: The Observatory

CW: Description of rotting corpse. If this would be triggering for you, please skip 39:55 to 40:04 as your safety and enjoyment are important to us. The observatory is dimly lit, the ground floor wide open. Rou almost immediately notices something about the space seems off. Keeping the thought to himself for the time being, the group splits up to poke around the various side rooms. Shortly after the split, Trix breaks into the remains of an office. Searching through the desk, they find some coins to pocket as well as stationary that reveals the observatory is located on Arling Isle. In the current year, Arling Isle is a legally protected island north of Baukora. The trio is troubled and confused at the realization the storm has blown them clear across the world, and begin to suspect there’s something ill afoot. Eventually they find the stairs leading up to the telescope, the paperwork and charts within reveal the ruins were once called Seaport. Taking a break to nibble on snacks and contemplate their situation, Elaith reveals the real reason they can’t return home. When the party continues their search, they find more newspapers that reveal Seaport was expecting a visit from a renowned scholar from the Wyvern Isles. The scholar hoped to examine a strange object found in the town’s nearby mines. As the sun sets, they notice a strange reddish light off in the distance by the ruins and that they’re not alone in the observatory.
