Sah'rii's Ritual / Attack on the Dragon Conclave

For unknown reasons, Sah'reii slaughtered several dragons from the temporary conclave that was set up by a large group of dragons led by Cress. She used their bodies and hearts as the basis for a large, devastating ritual, which shattered the land that the conclave was on. From this shattered land, countless demonic entities spilled forth into the circle, which was mostly sealed with a barrier, though several managed to breach the barrier and scattered into the surrounding land. Once her ritual was complete, the barriers shrunk, and Sah'reii siphoned the life force out of all of the demonic entities still trapped within it. Once all were gone, the barriers dispersed, leaving a tainted, ruined crater where the conclave once was.

Thankfully, with the warning of Sah'reii's actions brought to Cress from Guild Council, most of the dragons escaped unscathed - though the event wasn't without several tragic casualties. Most obvious were the deaths of the dragons used in to set up the ritual, with at least one more happening due to the demons that managed to escape during the ritual. This was the last known sighting of Sah'reii.

...It's just, this new world, there's something deeply very wrong here. I've seen it. You've seen it. Things are happening here that aren't... normal. By any means. And it's starting to make me feel deeply troubled.

Do we... have a deal?

Excerpt from Kayde's Notes

That gnoll woman, on her shoosuva, started to absorb the lifeforce of all the entities in that summoning circle… and when all was said and done, a blighted crater was all that was left. That was the last we saw of that woman, whoever she was. I have a deep sense of dread recalling this. Nothing involving demons ever goes well for anyone involved, besides the demons. Whether it falls to us, or some other group, she must not be allowed to gain any more power.

An excerpt from Xena’s journal

”This is the single most fucked thing I’ve seen. The fact Greg’s mentor actually managed to escape out of this place without an airship is…fuck. Scary as hell. That giant whatever-Sah’reii’s-sidekick thing was horrifying. It almost bit us out of the air! And the taint…fuck, I have no idea if there’s anyone who could fix this. It’s horrific. What the hell did she do?”
