Session 2
You were invited to a party by the lady, Izabelle to her party. Amongst the guests in the party, you mingled with many guests, gaining the friendship of Charles Abernathy, a powerful Goetic. The mingling of the party was broken up, when the jellyfish headed woman, Auriah cries out that there is an imposter in the party.
It was revealed that it is Parris, a former lover of Izabelle, whose memory was drawn and consumed by Fickle Phil. Parris ran off, unaware of why he is angry, but still convinced that he is Izabelle's lover. Izabelle expressed much gratitude to Fickle Phil and seems to show considerable interest in him.
Thomas, the friendly ghost, informed you that there are going ons in the Thirteenth Station and it is here that you came across The Unforgiving Clock, a powerful guardian of the Station who is immune to physical damage. Fleeing from the Station, you find yourself back in the streets of Silver Hill.

Session 3
Fickle Phil, in his attempt to contact Mister Child, found the Overseer, boss of Mister Child. Wanting more information on Mister Child regarding his defection, the Overseer gave Fickle Phil an item to connect to the Noosphere (the Internet of sorts) and to report to him when Mister Child have been found.
Fickle Phil was seemingly possessed by 63 entities all at once, one for each of the targets he slew in the Shadow. They were seemingly trapped and pulled to the Actuality by Fickle Phil. It seems to originate from his Shadow memento, a full Venetian opera mask.
Heading over to the Spidering House of one of the members of the Pneuma, they found more clues pointing to the Thirteenth Station.

Session 4
Taking the body of Variagan with them, the Makers, Buntree and the Mother took great glee in harvesting the body to be used as crafting materials, but not before getting the House of Dancing Prayers to look for a few naked dancers to dance a weird ritual composed by the Mother.
Agreeing to such a weird request, the group also headed off to Enridima, an expert in all manners ghostly. She was utterly convinced that it is possible to bring Shadows to life, after Fickle Phil agreed to let one of the spirits possess him, albeit temporarily.
Mr Norrell also realizes that it is indeed possible for him to find his wife from the Shadow. Enridima agreed to investigate further by taking Phil's Shadow memento's Venetian mask and leaving her, the party actually came across the Travelling Carnival.
The Travelling Carnival contains a Mirror Maze, which the circus owner uses to entrap the foolish, and when they finally succumbed, their wealth will be added to his. The Mother knowing the dangers of the Mirrors urged the group to hurry through the maze. Fickle Phil smashed some mirrors on the way out and it exploded in retaliation. A Mirror Golem pursues the party through the Maze and rushing out, sees a surprised Carnival Master at the exit.
Noticing that he values a particular ring very much, Fickle Phil forces the memory of the ring out of his head and stealing it, unleashes the Mirror Golem out of the Mirror Maze tentage. Causing a lot of havoc, the Mirror Golem slaughters many Thahs, and the party fled from the scene.
Coming across the Devil, the party sans Fickle Phil had a brief chat with him. Extremely charming, the Devil is keenly interested in the party's progress as he too, needs something from Limerence Street and in turn, he gives the party some help by teaching them some spells which formed in the party's mind. A price he means to extract from the party later. Fickle Phil tried attacking him, but dismissing the attack, the Devil lets Phil off even though the Devil knows that Phil is against the Deathless Triumvirate, of which, the Devil is a member.

Session 5
Getting to the Thirteen Station, the group grabbed a handful of tickets, and Mr Norrell, cast a spell enabling him to communicate with the Unforgiving Clock. Presenting the ticket to it, he manages to present the ticket, which sends the Clock back to it's own dimension.
After trying multiple times trying to talk to the "ghosts" of Thirteen Station, they managed to convince Mercy to reveal some information. The most powerful Vislae in the Pneuma is Axon. Axon always says that if he is in danger, the Pneuma should always approach Maphre, a powerful telepath, but who is now warded in the Calivan Madhouse.
Leaving the Station, Zero's just happens to be around the corner! Learning a little about it's once demonic nature, the Vislae sat down, have some drinks and eventually when the crowd starts coming in, they come upon Lady Izabelle again. As friends of Charles Abernathy, the Vislae realizes that the pair seemed to be unfriendly with Dark-Eyed Manfred, another rich vislae who commands attention wherever he goes. It is apparent that he have many contacts in the Celestial Bazaar.
Lady Izabelle agrees to get permission for the Vislae to get into Calivan Madhouse, but not before getting some protective trinkets from the Gold. Vislae alone are scary, but mad, powerful Vislae could be a recipe for disaster and thus, such trinkets are recommended.
Leaving Zero's, the Vislae sees a carriage with running legs dashing past, and managed to stop the kidnapping of Avalia, daughter of King Nine, a gangster who controls most of the illegal emotion trade going into and out of Satyrine. Fickle Phil with his abilities, reveals that Breme, the driver is in cahoots with the Overseer who wants to kidnap Avalia. The only way to get back to King Nine safely is through Dark-Eyed Manfred whom is a close associate of King Nine. Throwing the body of Breme into the carriage, Dark-Eyed Manfred resolves to return Avalia back to King Nine.
The next day, is the day where the Dance-Off College will perform the rituals for Variagan's burial.

Session 6
The Vislae were mugged on the way to the Confederacy of Cloisters. Both murderous Makers butchered the group. The Mother managed to convince Ferret, leader of the muggers to work for her for 10 crystal orbs a month.
At the Orchards of Mausoleum, at the funeral of Variagan, they met Challie, a war veteran from the War. An old acquaintance of Variagan, he was displeased with the way the party handled the funeral, but he understands their reasoning. As they leave, a pulse of magical energy washes over Satyrine. Taking a short detour, the party found that the Church of Time had a faulty magical clock created by the Red Shaper. Disposing of the magical artifact, Buntree was credited with the discovery and subsequent removal of the magical malaise and William Ballond is willing to sponsor Buntree to the 2nd-degree (only if Buntree shows his created item to William.)
The Mother wanted to blackmail the Red Shaper into sponsoring her entry, but drawing much disdain from her, the Mother attempted to swipe at the Red Shaper's legs and she promptly teleported, promising swift retribution.

Session 7
Going to the Celestial Bazaar for magical protections, they come across Stangre who sent them to his wife, Endravine in the eye. Cursing her worthless husband, she demanded 3 chores for the Vislae to do. One in which the Vislae ended up butchering a strange beast. Harvesting it's parts, the Mother planned to build a weapon for Fickle Phil with it's parts. Endravine, with the help of the other vislae helped Buntree clear himself of the magical malaise.
Upon the return to Fartown, the vislae went to Calivan's Madhouse and obtained some information from Maphre about Axon. Something about the Looking Glass in Allister's Shoe and the Seeker and Axon cannot exist at the same time.
Knowing the Seeker of Souls eats vislae who dabble in souls, the vislae realized that Enrimida is in danger. True enough, Enrimida is dead, torn into half by the Seeker.

Session 8
Fickle Phil found that the Citrine Court in the Quiet Lake might have possible information about Miss V, especially regarding her criminal records.
The Vislae also managed to get Axon's Looking Glass and with the Mother revealing her secret soul-name, the Seeker of Souls materializes and attempts to tear at the Vislae. With Fickle Phil holding the mirror, and Mr Norrell calling on his magicks to assist the Mother in fending the Seeker off, the magicks in the mirror works, and reverses the spell which trapped Limerence Street, which in turn traps the Seeker.
Finding Mercy, she requests for the payment of 1 magecoin for the consultation of the Lockless Key. A beast in which writing continually changes on it's body. It must be placated, subdued or somehow beaten into submission without killing it. The writings also must be read with magics. Keeping it for another time when Buntree comes back in from the Shadow, the vislae decides to wait for another more opportune time.
Thomas, the friendly ghost returns back to his place, but he really feels like returning back to his family in the Pale. However, he have no recollections of them, neither does he know how to go back.
Goodman Jonas, a Redivivus ice carrier asks the vislae to return with him back to Yestervale. It is a small town so far to the south that it is not on the map of the Indigo. The Indigo Rail will take the vislae there if they want to. It is said evil magics have affected the town, but he could not say very much as he is a simple townsfolk and not a vislae. He will pay the party as much Redivivus ice as they can carry.

Session 9
The vislae were invited by Dark-Eyed Manfred to visit King Nine in his palace. King Nine rewarded the attending Vislae for saving his daughter, Avalia, from the thoughtform killers.
Dark-eyed Manfred also hope that the vislae will assist him in getting rid of a rival gang from Rivenholme in Satyrine and hopes the vislae will agree, although he does not say what they need to do yet.
The Mother's reward is a massive corgi is used to ferry Fiore about, although it's current commands are limited to very simple commands.
Leaving the palace by jumping through a lacuna, the vislae found themselves in the Reinvention, a 1920s New York style and comes across Ulthin Lake who requires help rescuing his grandfather from an errant balloon. After helping out, they were rewarded and Ulthin Lake wants to redevelop and reclaim the Reinvention from the Ruined Expanses.

Session 10
Eno wants to pick up a new spell and headed off to Grynn's Gramarye. Over there, he encountered Thae Nitaris who tries to make friends with him. Apparently, she is not a very motivated Vislae and spends her time socializing, rather than studying.
Outside, Buntree while eating breakfast, comes across Marvus and Penolo, a pair of Witchcaptains, veterans of the war. Buntree caused Penolo to be as cowardly as a chicken, while the rest of the vislae help dispatched Marvus. Coming back as a ghost, Marvus goes on his merry way, with his body getting harvested by the pair of murderous Makers.
Finally, at Mercy's, the group finally seeks the Lockless Key, and being able to get many answers to their questions, several of them all pointed to Riveriver. Buntree's grandmother and Menter's Library regarding Eno's question to the Black Cube.
With 4 days left to meeting Goodman Jonas' at Yestervale, the vislae takes a much needed rest.

Session 11
Venturing into the Citrine Court, the party finds some information they needed, about developing the moonfox's ability. However, there is nothing known about Yestervale.
The party also managed to secure an expedited visa from the Pale Embassy by using some form of trickery, but the trickery was not discovered, and thus they got their visa.
The Vislae tried to look for Thomas but he is nowhere to be found. He misses his parents so much, though he does not know who they are.
Purchasing the train tickets to Yestervale, the Vislae piled into 2 passenger cabins. Fickle Phil and Buntree in one, the Mother and Fiore in another. The thoughform giant corgi is in the luggage compartment.

Session 12
On board the train to Yestervale, the Vislae encounters a variety of creatures, both mundane, odd, and fey.
The Mother, and Buntree drove off a group of grig infestation at the top of the parlour car where they were riding for free. They also met a bartender named Jaden Johnson. A thoughtform, he wishes to learn more of the drinks of the Shadow, so that he too can impart the same flavour and feel to his drinks in the Actuality. Duchess Maroline, a noble from the Pale paid the Vislae to stop a quartet of cultists from the Church of Midnight from performing a powerful ritual. Only Fickle Phil participated in the actual ritual, and stealing the knowledge of the ritual from the cultists, and their silver urn, he possesses the power to re-enact the ritual. One in which there must be at least 4 cultists, and moving above a certain speed, they must hurl a willing sacrifice out of the moving vehicle to gain it's power.
All in a night's work, the train continues on it's second day journey to Yestervale.
There is also a library found in the mouth of a purple frog in the parlour car.

Session 13
Eno explored about and came across an intelligent and talkative suitcase, who claims that it is suffocating in the luggage car. Looking for the conductor, he explained his case, in which she resolves to clear it. He also came across Elias Strohn, a Weaver, who is interested in a Weaver's game called the Spider's Game. Declining to play, he promises to revisit her offer once he have the time.
The Mother on the other hand tries to teach Fiore to meditate, without much success. Mr Norrell sleeps in until lunch before joining the pair.
Making their way to Carmanth, they came across a carnival, and a thief who attempted to steal from a merchant in Carmanth. Caught red-handed, he promises violence when Eno destroys his pistol with a powerful incantation. Fleeing, he promised vengeance. Before that, both Mr Norrell, and Eno completed a mirror maze from the carnival too, the very same carnival which let the Mirror Slayer out.
Moving on, the train broke down, but the Vislae managed to beat off a pack of errix hounds who are intent on making a meal out of the passengers. Fiore was traumatized when a powerful incantation by Mr Norrell tore a living errix hound to shreds in front of her eyes. It takes much deliberate coaxing from Eno to bring her out of her shock.
On arrival, only one other passenger disembarks to Yestervale.
