"Saving Grace(lyn)" (1x39) is the 39th session of the first campaign of Itora.
Winding down after an exhausting day of competition, the party peruse F&F themed merchandise and mingle with their fellow competitors. On the way home, Gael confronts a figure tailing the group, who gives them an urgent letter to deliver to Pine.
Synopsis
Still on the field after their intense battle, Gael expresses displeasure at being hit so often with Eldritch Blasts while Ricoril is wondering why everyone is so upset with Nohbody, who terrorized the team throughout the match. He apologizes for knocking out the weasel she conjured from her Bag of Tricks and she apologizes for taking out Pyre and Gandalf.
Merchandising
To decompress before watching the final match of the day, the group head out to the merchandise peddling area around the arena to scout out anything branded with their team's likeness. Sure enough, Ricoril comes across a bootleg-quality t-shirt operation using Fabricate to mass produce shirts of various teams. He notices several that feature an artist's rendition of the faces of Friend and Friends, their team name, and individual names as they chose upon signup. He makes the request for a shirt that says "Furry Explosion" with a chimera in the middle and the shop obliges. They give it to him for free once they realize he's one of the competitors in exchange for a favor of spreading the word and letting people know where he got the shirt. It's an objectively awful shirt, even by bootleg standards.
Versa comes across an artisan woodworker in the middle of crafting a figurine of Versa bursting through the doors with her Thunderwave. Considering it has only been about half an hour since their fight, she's impressed at how quickly something has popped up. The artisan claims that all her works are hand-made and usually fetch around 50gp each, but she might offer a deal to Versa as a tournament competitor if she spreads the word about her stall.
Devil Slayers vs Gloryseekers
The final match of the day ends up being the most competitive. Despite seeding low, the Gloryseekers go toe to toe with the Devil Slayers as they exchange blows and fire off high level magic the likes of which much of the crowd has rarely seen. In the end, however, the Gloryseekers had a much harder first match, and lose the war of attrition, eventually falling to the Devil Slayers.
End of Day Mixer
As in the beginning of the day, all competing teams are invited to an end of day mixer to decompress, mingle, and say farewell to participants who would be exiting the tournament after the day's matches.
Versa approaches House Woodmere with the intent to harass Peregrine, however he is not present with the rest of his group, who seem in oddly higher spirits despite being out of the competition. Lorena provides Versa with the paperwork she requested, as well as an addressed and stamped envelope that will ensure the application finds the right people within the House.
