Contention over the Forshantir

This session began with contention over the Forshantir. During the battle with Moro, the artifact burned itself out of Malic's backpack and landed on the ground. After Moro was defeated, Fagan picked up the Forshantir.

Fagan:

I don't think we have ever seen the Forshantir react so violently before.

Alan:

He must have been really evil.

Fagan:

He must have. Something happened. Did you see that? Those spirits weren't just in our minds. They were here in this world. We need to figure out what is going on.

Alan:

We need to figure out how to use them as allies; that would be pretty cool.

Fagan:

('laughs') That was truly opportunistic of us. That polar bear didn't stand a chance.

Malic:

May I please have my Forshantir back? You seem to have put it in your backpack. And that is not where the Forshantir lives.

Fagan:

I… I was just going to carry it for awhile.

Malic:

You took my shit; give it back.

Fagan:

I… I… It's the party's.

Malic:

I am the protector of the Foshantir. I have protected it where Rosa was unable to. It has never left my possession.

Alan:

And it's a noble job you've done.

Fagan:

You have. I'm… I'm just worried. It's clearly grown out of control. Did you just not witness what I saw? It was coming to life!

Malic:

I did. And if only I had been holding it, I could have harnessed the power.

Fagan:

It seemed like it fell out of your pack so blazingly on fire.

Malic:

All I needed was a protection from energy spell memorized and we would have been good to go, sir.

Fagan:

This may be true… I think that we should try to share this burden. I appreciate your concern but this feels like a burden that all of us should bear, not just you.

Malic:

I think you are being a dick about this. Give me back the Forshantir.

Bisquick:

I think Malic Citrate is most well prepared to carry the Forshantir.

Fagan:

I agree. But do you not think that I am well prepared?

Bisquick:

I think that he has just had it for such a long time.

Fagan:

He has. Don't you remember what Elanora said? It takes such a great toll on the person who owns it.

Bisquick:

There may be some nuances to protecting the Forshantir that you're just not used to.

Alan:

I have a question; what happened to the last artifact that we gave to Fagan?

Malic:

Yeah, what happened when we gave you the Life Pendant of Dira?

Fagan:

Er… what happened to the Life Pendant of Dira was because I was slain in battle… Somehow I came back to life and dark energies consumed it.

Bisquick:

Really. Where did these dark energies come from?

Fagan:

I don't know! I don't know! I don't know anything about this stuff.

Bisquick:

So. So far there are dark energies associated with you.

Fagan:

I do not know what is going on.

Bisquick:

I don't think we want to have this already corrupted dirate in the hands of someone who is associated with dark energies.

Fagan:

You don't trust me?

Malic:

As the holiest person here, it is my responsibility to guard the Forshantir.

Bisquick:

I do not trust you, Fagan…

Alan:

Okay. Let's look at this tactially. Fagan, you are on the frontline a lot, in the line of fire, you are up there, you are fighting. Uh, if you were to be downed and someone were to grab it, they could be off with it before we could catch them.

Fagan:

That is true…

Alan:

It may be better if someone in the backline held onto the Forshantir.

Malic:

Someone who isn't so fast as you.

Fagan:

Very good. I say it is held by someone with great strength of will.

Malic:

It does take much strength of will to carry this burden.

Alan:

I don’t doubt it.

Fagan:

I am merely worried. Elanora's words… She even said that its powers corrupt the wielder. I'm worried for you, Malic.

Alan:

Have we seen any signs of corruption in Malic?

Fagan:

We haven't. But she said… she said… we have to trust her! She's the only one that knows anything about this.

Malic:

The last time we trusted here we got thrust into the Forshantir again!

Alan:

Yeah, and she wasn't exactly a knowledge expert on the Forshantir.

Fagan:

This is true. But I can't help but think this is dangerous.

Malic:

I do not deny that the Forshantir is dangerous.

Alan:

We are all responsible adults here. Malic is probably the best person to hold it, simply due to his great strength of will. We should let him hang onto it and just monitor him closely. If it starts to seem like he is becoming corrupted, we'll do what we have to. But he's fine; he seems fine. He is fine to bear this burden.

Malic:

I think the Forshantir's helping me heal people better.

Fagan:

You… You're drawing on the Forshantir's power?

Malic:

No! I mean…

Fagan:

You must resist it! It's dangerous! I mean, if it weren't for Patrick Stempilos, I would have asked Rosa to send it off to be destroyed!

Malic :

Rosa lost it once before! She was unable to bear the burden!

Fagan:

We should have destroyed it! I am loathe to do it because there is some good in there. Patrick still lives!

Malic:

And the satyr.

Fagan:

The satyr too! Alright… I want you to be careful though.

Malic:

Like I haven't been careful before?

Fagan:

No. No, I have no doubt that you have. It's just that it is a dangerous artifact. It is ripe with evil power.

Malic:

Stop talking like my parents. You sould just like they did about wizardy.

Fagan:

I just wish you would be a little… Wizardy is different than a dark artifact of an evil god of slaughter! I'm sorry I doubted you. Here, take it. I just want you to be careful.

At some point during the arguing, Bisquick approached the unconscious Aranessa and kicked her, screaming, "Vile wizard!" As he continued to kick her repeatedly, the rest of the party moved to intervene.
