Spears Of The Seas Operation In Lauriea 240129
In the murky depths of the warlord Mistress Sindaril's vaults, Samantha and her comrade Avi engaged in a furtive quest to seize the seed of Salgorn, a transformative remnant of Fae magic. Their infiltration was a dance of shadows and steel; the great door to the vault swung open quietly, betraying its secrets to the daring duo. As they snaked through the gloom, Avi, uncertain and skeptical, shared a brief exchange with Samantha about gas masks, a comment spurred by the robed cultists' unnerving attire. Unbeknownst to them, the enigmatic figures in white masks – the Cultists of the Black Flame – emerged, casting the pair into an ambush. A whirlwind of parries and thrusts ensued, the tridents and knives of Samantha and Avi meeting the relentless assault of their masked adversaries. Samantha sketched arcane patterns in the air, summoning the veil of sorcery to their aide, as both agents wove through a perilous ballet towards their objective—the crates, which hid their quarry.
With Avi momentarily obscured from the fray, retreating from the nightmare of battle, Samantha redoubled her efforts. With Crikey, her fierce crocodile companion at her heels, she lunged at the guardians of the vault, deflecting and disarming with the grace of a seasoned warrior. She felled guards with a potent blend of trident finesse and reptilian ferocity, each motion a symphony of survival and determination. The final skirmish had her pit against mechanical sentries—clockwork soldiers rising from the bowels of the vault to thwart her escape. With a mixture of tenacity and tactical retreats, Samantha battled through the metallic menace. As she laid hands on the coveted Seed of Salgorn, the vault seemed to resist, but to no avail. The agents triumphed over gears and blades, securing the seed and hastening to the extraction point. The heist concluded with victory for the Autocratic Extremists Alliance, with every clank of the defeated automata echoing their formidable prowess.

Mission: Intercept the seed of salgorn and bring it back to the extraction point.
Salgorn was a notable Fae who grew bored of life on earth and so transformed themselves in a great, magic tree. The tree produces a seed only every hundred years and the most recent seed is kept deep in the vaults of a warlord in Lauriea named Mistress Sindaril. The seed is kept deep in a vault in her castle, but word is that after a falling out with her former head of security he's willing to sell plans to the castle, including details on the vault to the highest bidder...
The vaults of Sindaril Castle
It is morning, about 35F(1C) degrees, and the sky is partly covered by dark grey stormclouds.
Samantha says "Lets head for those crates."
Samantha charges toward crates.
Avi charges toward crates.
The vault of Mistress Sindaril, set deep within the heart of the jagged Iron Mountain, was an intimidating beast of stone, iron and shadow. Sealed by a monstrous door, encrusted with complex mechanical locks and runes of old magic, it dwarfed the infiltrators with an ominous presence and a promise of death. Torchlight flickered on the oil-slicked floor, painting somber silhouettes of the Imperial guards. As the team arrive the provided instructions have the huge doorway swing open silently, leading into the depths of the vaults below.
"Was I supposed to bring a gas mask?" Avi asks, alarmed, as he dashes toward the crates piled in the vault.
Avi charges toward crates.
Samantha looks around the labyrinthine vaults and picks a path towards the heavy crates, "No it'll be fine." She assures Avi with far too much confidence. "We're looking for a magic seed, it'll probably be in some sort of treasure box or something, try not to make too much noise and draw more guards than we have to."

"Those guys are wearing masks too," Avi points out the robed figures, not mollified by Samantha's breezy assurances. "And I'm not noisy," he huffs, more quietly.

Suddenly, shrouded in darkness, the Cultists of the Black Flame trekked into the vastness of the vault. Dressed in glistening robes of inky black, their faces shrouded in hoods, their bony hands clutching otherworldly amulets, they brought an air of creeping dread. Smoke-blackened torches held in their hands as they spot the members of the Spears of the Sea and open fire.

Samantha, lunged toward the cultists, moving with agile elegance that belied deadly intent. Her trident danced like lightning, each strike singing a song of fury. In concert, her pet crocodile, Crikey, snarled and leapt with sharp teeth aimed for cultist flesh. Meanwhile, Avi, gaunt and wild-eyed, flicked his blood-streaked knife. His deceptively thin arms gathered arcane energy, its dull glow matched his eyes as the reality around him warped and twisted. In the face of the onslaught, the cultists crumbled, their black robes now stained a darker, more fatal shade.

Samantha has the seed of salgorn.
As Samantha laid hands on the chest, the vault shuddered to life with a grinding hum. Hidden within the stone walls, clockwork soldiers emerged, shedding their stone entombments. Their bodies creaked like old rusted gates, gears clicking and grinding as they moved. Metallic faces aflame with ghostly cold radiance, they advanced ominously towards her. Swords sprung from their hands in a whirl of coiled springs and uncoiling aggression.
