Last Time on Deus Ex Magica...

After Xil-jek-tad-mej (nicknamed Ember) joins with the party they travel deeper into the woods and find a massive ring of vines, fungus, and trees that limits their path. With the sudden arrival of Nero they manage to breach it and enter into the Fungal Jungle.

Traveling through the Fungal Jungle the party eventually reaches a massive tree which they consider to be the heart of the forest. They are attacked by more fungal beasts and speak with what seemed to be a fungal man who claims to be voice of the fungus.

The session ended with the Tower preparing to do battle with the Fungus Tree and it's horde of beasts to cleanse the woods of the sickness.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Arc 1: The Necromancer ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In the cold month of Octumber the Tower Wizard's held a ball in honor of the season. Mages from across Kandarin took part and the ball was going well until unplanned entertainment arrived in the form of an army of Zombies led by a Necromage who had crashed the party. The zombies were quickly dealt with and the ball was evacuated however in the confusion the Necromage managed to break into the vault under the guild. The wizards pursued him and found he had retrieved a Skull enchanted with Dark Magicks to find and revive a group of 4 demons that would herald the coming of a Demonic Overlord that would bring about the end of civilization as we know it. The Necromage introduced himself as Christopher Blackwood and promptly sicked the first of the 4 demons on the wizards and teleports away. The Tower dispatched the demon which vanished upon it's defeat and the Tower went to the drawing board to find and stop Blackwood. They forcibly enlisted the help of an imprisoned Necromancer who sent them to the beaches of Karamja to find Blackwood already there in the process of summoning the second demon. The Tower did battle but once again they god away. They finally had a victory in Adriador against the 3rd demon which they killed but did damage most of the city. This trend continued with the first destruction of Ashdale. Finally Blackwood offered the Tower a challenge, he would fight them in a nearby dungeon to see if they could stop him before he summoned the Demon Overlord.

The Tower was successful in stopping Blackwood and returning the 3 remaining demons to their graves.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Arc 2: The Reign of the Scarlet King ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Early in the new year the Tower received a letter from the Wizard's Council informing them that they were required to attend a meeting of the Guilds in Taverly. The meeting would consist of a festival like event with a combat tournament between the apprentices. The fair was going well and the Tower was doing well in the tournament until the city came under attack from a crimson clad army that proceeded to burn and pillage Taverly until a combined force of the Tower and the other guilds forced them back but not before the heads of the guilds were captured and taken to Adriador. The Tower then learns that the attack was orchestrated by the self-titled "King" of Adriador and that he is holding the guild leaders ransom in return for the dissolving of all magic guilds in the council. The Tower stages a rescue mission where manage to rescue all of the guild leader except for their own and their Wind Archmage who was captured at the same time. Their rescue is cut short when they are caught and have a dialogue with the King. He agrees to let their leader free if they obtain a mystical flower that has the power to heal his dying daughter and never perform magic in his domain. The Tower accepts and travels to the furthest corner of the Wilderness to obtain the flower. They return and save the daughter only to find the King killed by his fool who has a personal vendetta against him. The Tower dispose of the fool and restore the city under the new leadership of Lady Rose, the King's now well daughter.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Arc 3: The Cult of the Eldritch Gods ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After the excitement of the Council meeting the Tower was looking for a time to relax. Sadly this peace was shattered when they received a letter that a message that a courier sending them a job offer had been found dead in his inn room in Catherby. The Tower investigates and stays in the inn, encountering a mysterious Elder being a group of cultist* that attack the Tower Wizards in an ethereal realm. They then travel into the Catherby fens and find themselves in a bizarre marsh with a temple dedicated to a tentacled god of unknown origin. They flee the temple narrowly avoiding a parade of cultists entering the temple and return to reality. They then track down the man who has been sending them the letters and learns that a friend of his was taken by the cultists and now he fear for his life as they are hunting him down. He then sends them to meet with a sailor in Catherby who told them of his encounter with the cult and is promptly killed by the elder being that they fought before. They then learn of a silver key that will permanently lock the tentacle god they found in his prison dimension and they set out to find it. They are deceived by their handler who turns out to be the elder being and sends an army of cultist to storm the Tower. After a huge battle just outside the cultist were defeated and the Elder Being and it's god were banished back to their prison dimension with the silver key.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Arc 4: The Great Guild Schism ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was summer time in Gielindor and the Tower received another summons to the Wizard's Council to meet in Adriador this time, as an apology from Lady Rose for her father's actions the previous winter. The festival was going quite well however the Tower was on their guard after learning that the head of the Yanille Guild was in on the attack the previous winter. They decide to bring this up during the final meeting. This causes the head of the Yanille Guild to summon up his guards and turns the meeting into a spellslinging battlezone which continues out onto the streets of Adriador. The Tower and it's allies manage to force the Yanille Faction out of the city but must now prepare for war. The first attack is on Ashdale, the Tower is put in charge of the advanced response team and quickly reaches Ashdale managing to save most of the civilians and the guild but loses the island in the process. The Arcane Empire (as they call themselves) then attacks Karamja trying to gain a naval foothold against the United Guilds which the Tower puts down but not after causing the Volcano to erupt. The allies then learn that the Arcane Empire is marching from Yanille to Taverly. The Tower decides to abandon their home to help set up a final stand against the AE in Taverly and manage to defeat the chain of command for the AE finally ending the Schism.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Arc 5: The Bitter Winter ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Tower recuperated from their trying fight during the Schism during the sunny months of Summer but were interrupted by the arrival of Glace's father who demanded that she came with him to their homeland. Just before the Guild Schism Glace had disappeared after a fight with a rival Tower mage had gone sour. The Tower gathered their resources and scoured the country eventually locating her. The Tower then had to deal with the harsh reality that if Glace left she may never come back. To try and influence the outcome to their favor the Tower decided to join the Kori's on their return trip to the Land of Snow. Upon arrival they learned that the current Matriarch of the Ice Sprites was being deposed and Glace was next in line to be Queen. After a series of bouts with her father and exploration of the frozen countryside the Tower took part in the proceedings to chose the new Queen. Through some subterfuge and a lot of luck they managed to both get Glace the position of Queen and allow her to stay at the Tower letting her father run the Kingdom in her place as a regent. This also lead to an embassy in Ardounge for the Ice Sprites to better connect between Gielindor and the Land of Snow.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Arc 6: Archons of the Old World ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After a surprisingly long period of quiet for the Tower they receive a letter from an old friend of Archmage Vyrell's asking them if they were interested in helping explore an ancient ruin that had been found near White Wolf Mountain. The Tower deciding this wouldn't be too dangerous accepted and join in the excavation. After a bit of digging they found a series of chapels dedicated to what looked to be Pagan gods of a long lost religion. Their final stop was in a dark and spooky chapel that looked to be dedicated to a female Death God. With further prodding they accidental break open a crypt in the chapel and find stairs leading deeper into the earth. They follow and find a statue to a 6th Deity that looks like a Demon. It comes to life in their presence calling itself Chaos and declares that it will find its 5 Archon brethren, slay them, and extract his revenge on the world. Chaos disappears and the Tower is approached by Lady Death who explains that the only way to stop Chaos is destroy her scythe which he had stolen but they must find the other 5 Archons first. The Tower seeks out Community, Instinct, Passion, and Curiosity that all give part of a spell that will destroy the scythe. In a final showdown the Tower and the 5 allied Archons duel with Chaos and destroy the scythe banishing Chaos back to his prison and sealing the temple once more within the earth.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Arc 7: Nature's End ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Just over a year has passed after Chaos was finally brought down and because of the constant mayhem the Tower has caused for Kandarin the new Wizard's Council has decided to move them back to their old home at the Tower in Misthalin. When they arrive they are immediately met with hostility from the locals and rumors of walking tree in the surrounding forest. The Tower manages to patch up relations with Raven's Run and begin investigation into the moving trees. By chance a group from the Tower enters the woods looking for herbs and is attacked by a strange fungus beast. Upon defeating it they group meets with Roak of the Glade, an Ent native to the forest who has been hunting down the fungus beasts as they have been infecting the forest and making it uninhabitable for the Ents. Roak takes the group to Woodhaven the new Ent settlement to meet with their leader Yewen the Many Ringed. Yewen explains that the fungus has infected the heart of the wood and is spreading. The Tower agrees to help and sets off the heart. After traveling and picking up a Tzhaar Pilgrim lost in the woods they reach the heart and do battle with a fungus being attacked to the Heart Tree. After a climactic battle they defeat the fungus being and burn away the remaining growths causing the fungus in the woods to wither and die. The Tower the returns home with their new Tzhaar ally having saved the woods.

Meanwhile a cloaked figure had been watching them from the shadows and comments on how easy it is to manipulate heroes then grows a large pair of scaled wings and flies off towards to the south.
