Bandy's visitor introduced himself as Ranolas, a servant of the Lady of Grace investigating a fellow hunter's disappearance. After the party cooperatively reconstructed the Menhem crypt incident, Ranolas revealed that the marigna seen there was his kin and that his task had grown into something larger around the Gauntlight.

Ranolas said Pharasma's will had to be channeled through the party. He recoiled while examining Venris's wound, asked for the unguent formula in wording that suggests a handoff for study, and planned a daylight crypt investigation because both the crypt and Gauntlight repelled him at night. He also sensed pieces of the Rose Guard in the party's relics even though the crystalline conduit he expected was absent.

At Wrin's tent, the party entered a prepared circle to explore Cid's constellation through a spell Wrin could not repeat for about a year. The ritual revealed Cid's family's martial tradition, his older brother's sacrifice during an ambush, his father's murder by a trusted family friend, his grandfather's knighting, and ancestors fighting in a human war against devils. The recording does not preserve an explicit verdict on whether Cid is a Rajani. [S66 01:24:04] [S66 01:25:29] [S66 01:56:43] [S66 01:59:58] [S66 02:00:33] [S66 02:01:49] [S66 02:05:24] [S66 02:10:02]
| 00:00:08 | Recap and the Summons to the Library The party recapped Uravian's demand for a Rajani, their possible Cid-as-Rajani loophole, Wrin's promised ancestry investigation, and Bandy's request that they come to the Dawnflower Library. They reached the library and found Bandy, priests, Father Eldric, and a cloaked visitor waiting for them. [S66 · 00:00:38 · turn 0008 · scene 001] |
| 00:06:11 | Ranolas Investigates the Menhem Crypt Incident The visitor introduced himself as Ranolas, a servant of the Lady of Grace sent to investigate a fellow hunter's disappearance. In private, he asked the party to reconstruct the Menhem crypt incident. They cooperated, recounting the violated tombs, restless dead, Venris's lost hand, the hostile soul-affecting creature, the marigna's intervention, and the spirits' release toward the River of Souls. [S66 · 00:08:12 · turn 0045 · scene 002] |
| 01:00:40 | A Marigna's Warning and the Souls in the Relics Ranolas revealed that the marigna from the crypt was his kin and that his task now extended beyond investigating that loss. He said Pharasma's will had to be channeled through the party, recoiled while inspecting Venris's wound, accepted the unguent formula for study, and planned to inspect the crypt in daylight because the crypt and Gauntlight repelled him at night. He also sensed pieces of the Rose Guard in their relics despite the absence of the crystalline conduit he expected, and promised to investigate further. [S66 · 01:00:58 · turn 0352 · scene 003] |
| 01:22:22 | Wrin Opens Cid's Constellation At Wrin's rearranged tent, the party entered a prepared casting circle with Cid at its center. Wrin explained that the spell could not be repeated for about a year and would let the group explore Cid's constellation, experiencing his memories and those of his lineage. Venris's occult preparation and Veve's performance strengthened the group's attunement, and scenes began to appear inside the stars. [S66 · 01:22:22 · turn 0461 · scene 004] |
| 01:40:41 | Attunement Through Shared Memories The first searches returned shared memories: the party's ghoul fight in the library and time in the Gauntlight with Cid. To anchor the ritual more deeply, Cid recalled graduating from the military academy, his father's congratulations, and his family's long martial tradition. [S66 · 01:41:51 · turn 0625 · scene 005] |
| 01:53:34 | The Martial Lineage in the Stars Wrin warned everyone to leave the circle if they began to drift; Veve obeyed first, and Abbas later let go. Cid anchored the others with a memory of his older brother sacrificing himself during an ambush so Cid could get the king to safety. The constellation then showed Cid's father murdered by a trusted family friend, an ancestor fighting in a human war against devils, Cid's grandfather being knighted, and generations of warriors battling monsters and devils. Cid made the final recorded check, but the transcript does not preserve an explicit conclusion about Rajani ancestry before the session ended. [S66 · 01:53:56 · turn 0735 · scene 006] |
