Journal of Lt. Tupper, Day 253

Day 253
I hate being a frog.

The nutcase decided to sell me off to the Seneschal today; when I refused, she pulled the same stunt she did the last time she didn't get her way. Fortunately, the Seneschal seems to have as much sense as she has arcane power and restored me to normal. She was also willing to expound her organization. They battle a group known as the Isphit, as noted; a faction of aboleths that loathe all sentient life as we know it, led by a very old 'prime' aboleth. The last time they rose up, Ehlonna herself vanquished them with the staff. The quartz crystal necklaces we have encountered are part of an extensive communication and control network: the bearers are subjected to a mind control spell, then given orders remotely through them. The Seneschal and her allies also use the necklaces to communicate, though interception of enemy messages is nigh-impossible.

As for Nogori, she has apparently run off to sulk about her failure at the slave trade. Azan and Mistera are also gone, though Mistera had to leave early in the day on vision-based business and Azan presumably left to find something to punch. That or our hosts are slowly picking us off, which is too ridiculous to consider at this stage.

Which means it is entirely probable.
