We’re in Reverse Time Inn, Binary Prime is here, but relaxed and speaking forwards. He looks at us and says “friends, you’ve arrived? Are we not friends? We are at peace in this plane? This is the plane of law. This is a different dimension. I have been able to transcend the dimensions.”

Kex – are you Morris? I am the entity you know as Morris, I am Prime —– making me Binary Prime.

We talk about the true god for plan of law being away. Talk about time. Cleo Pipe exists solo in your dimension.

Morris explained that our movements through time have altered time and dimensions. We have to solve this riddle to return to our home. Jartha asks about the mission. BP suggests we visit the wise sage – lives in a small farm outside of the portal. Things are very different here. Kex asks to rest. BP tells us we can rest here.

We rest. Lux wakes up does the charisma roll, looking better than yesterday. We go downstairs.

Kex asks about why is he Morris or Prime. Morris says they are switching places. Each of us must equal time spent on one day as the other – part of our binary existence – we were melded many years ago. Checks and balances. Prime melded them to provide stable governorship between two different viewpoints. Each dimension is different from the other. He won’t tell us the sages name. Tells us that traveling with the Lycor mechanism – we can’t wield correctly.

Ulus can show us the way to the sage. He says he’ll tell us about modron. We see greenery with an open space. Ulus tells Lux about the bliss of mondrone.

We go to this green pasture, but also nothing ala the holodeck. Standing in the center is a marlock and a human. MERKA is there -says welcome, come.

Kexyl my lord you have finally arrived, I’ve missed you all these years.

Yes my servant, how long has it been. Time is difficult to ascertain here. Long enough to meet Sheila and have a son Hildo. It’s been many years since you last portaled.

Are you the same Merka? I am. Evidence of him being a good hunter….improvement in the bow. Sheila existed here for millenia. I’ve always existed here. Kex – you have a fish boy. We meet Hildo.

He says he is sage. We ask him about getting back. Merka has no desire to leave. We talk about Quantum Leap.

Sage Merka explains that he didn’t end up here the same way we did. This forest area has been created due to this area due to influence. We state the quest to get back to Fellen. You have the two parts. The Lycor Mechanism and Prime’s Teleportation Mechanism. Those are part of larger device, including the lantern. There is a fourth part…..the dowsell device….it exists on this plane and this dimension. If recovered, Prime can unify the parts to create a device that could transport us back to what we know as the original dimension of plane of law. This paradise, Merka’s farm, has an inverted area called the Fade $wamp.

Fade $wamp will be malevolent, Usul can lead us. Jartha asks Merka for weed for Cleo Pipe’s pipe.  They do a solider’s handshake. Merka praises Kexyl’s lessons for his development.

We head out, walk for a while, encounter this disgusting smell. We approach – we see a bunch of vines and a depression with a foul-smelling pool.

There are stairs headed down – appear overgrown. There is a tube flowing from the pool to the ground – could be flowing either way.

We talk tactics. Avoid water, vines.

We go around, SE side of the pool. We can tell the pipe is spraying liquids into the pool. Then we go down the stairs, Kex chopping vines.  Hocks through one then sees ooze coming out. Green ooze. The large area begins to move and lashes out at him.  Kex (nat 20) jumps back but the vines congeal into an assassin vibe.

Lux uses wand of fireballs, impacts creature but doesn’t move out of the fire. Lux wand heats up and six point damage. Kex does cloud of daggers – two more plants appear. We fight – Lux is grappled.

We fight some vines then go downstairs. Also during fight Lux notices his hand crossbow smells like ozone similar to his rapier.

We go downstairs into this underground lair with pools of water and stuff. It is wet down there – Neves says no lightning spells, Lux says no electrical.

We also learn that Neves was on the dive team in high school.

An entity begins to form. A large, disgusting creature wearing a vest appears – the Marid, and two water elementals.

Marid – welcome, I am Esfrig.  What has brought you here? Are you the ones that pump the goodness of water out of my realm? Now suddenly outsiders are here. Kex’s sword whispers to him. He discusses protecting an artifact of great evil. It is a shell – with spaces for other items to be inserted. Lux talks about returning the water in exchange for the artifact. Esfrig says he wants something more. Jartha’s Cuff of BoneDriedNess. They have a greater power than you are aware of. Esrig is like give them to me. He says he will give us the artifact. Kex feels like there’s more to it. Says the artifact fell into and created this super deep well and Esrig was formed from the water over the thousands of years. He’s been able to grow plants to prevent intruders. We placate the lord.

We talk about helping him, and he doesn’t want the cuffs to leave so Neves is on duty. Jartha hands cuffs to Neves and says don’t get killed. Kex talks to neves about electric usage and neves says I am well versed – he’s gonna use illusion.

We go to the surface. We check out the pipe – nothing amiss. We go to the other set of stairs and clear that with cloud of daggers. There’s a door. We go in, kinda dark, Jartha uses the lantern. We find a large pumping mechanism. We check out the mechanism. It goes down further than what we can see. We go down further. We get to the bottom of the stairs. There’s a control panel. Kex discerns that there are red, white, and blue buttons. Wants to start with white then move over to color.

Kex pushes the blue button – console makes a beeping sound. Nothing happens. Then presses white then blue and the pressure increases. We start running up the stars. We see a purple outline of a doorway. Burst of sound from below. We try to get the door open through lock picks and breaking down the door. Then the water rises and JARTHA’S CUFFS AND SOCKS AND SHOES ARE SOAKED.

Pond continues to swell. We get to the surface and go back down the other stairs. Everything is drained and that pool is lower.

Kex – oh lord esrig. We’re fixing it. You bastards are draining it. Back in forth between Kex and Lord Esrig. Kex continues with the rouse.

Jartha puts on the cuffs and they are saturated. There’s back and forth. Lord Esrig’s wants the cuffs before he gives over the artifact.

Jartha runs back and fourth for a while. Throws the cuffs down to Lord Esrig and gets the idol (which is the dowsell device). We run out of the lair. We’re up in the fade pool. We go back to Merka’s place.

We return to Fogweed Ranch with the artifact. Merka: I see you are back, and you have the things.

There are parting pleasantries exchanged but Kex still doesn’t really care.

Ulus to takes us back to Time Inn. LED ZEPPELIN IS BACK and playing Kashmir rock version.

Binary Morris is there. Kind of a blended apparition of Morris and Prime. Kex: this weird, why are you like this. Morris: because you got all the things. This will allow you to travel.

Binary Morris describes how the portal destroyed things when we went into the plane of law. Take the binary heart with you, which will teleport you back to the location of Binary Prime in Fellen.

Morris in original plane should be able to help us.

Prime will assemble the device, toss it toss us holding hands/touching each other.  Morris Prime appears, asks for the devices.

We all touch each other. Morris Prime begins to do his incantations. Tosses the rock to Jartha

JARTHA rolls as natural 20. It’s hot and he’s playing it cool. We worm through time like the end of Contact and we see a creature pass by us, and it’s Bug.

We materialize at the some spot in our original dimension at the Time Inn. To raucous applause. Massive crowd afoot. Zeppelin is there, they are playing the song Rock n Roll.

Skyler Reach is like where the fuck did you guys come from. We’re like whatever and we get beers.

We talk to Morris – Jartha shows him the dowsell. Morris tells us we haven’t moved from the center of the room. We talk to Morris about the teleporter. Says that only holding it should transport to Binary Prime. We talk about OG prime – still on his great leave. Says the fadings have slowed. Few new people come in any more.

We break before jumping to the next dimension.
