Ok, I will really need to write up Nobilis over xmas after I kind of promised it time and time again. To start with I will see if I can remember all that happened. So, here is the plot outline. If I have forgotten anything, then please fill it in as otherwise it will be properly LoST.

- The characters meet the Forge and the White Lady
- Everyone but Dreams travel by NAsh's pane.
- Dreams travels through the dream sea.
- At the military airport Nash summons the Baba Yaga to lay cover.
- They all meet up and go to the entrance where Electronics fool the guards to think they are supposed to be let it.
- They decend the cave and finds the entrance with a note saying go away.
- The White Lady lets them in and asks them for help.
- The characters agree to try and help The Forge with his broken heart.
- The characters visit Desire, Monique Coultier
- The characters come under the disguise of needing advice on party making.
- Also they want to warn her that she may not get a mask due to the tension between them.
- She wants them to sort it out but agrees to talk to The Forge if it's necessary.
- The make-over of The Forge
- The Forge is happy to get the second chance with Desire.
- Dreams goes with him to Cicela, The Power of Etiquette, and ???, the Power of Garments, to sharpen him up.
- The Forge start making the required masks and also secretly starts making the special mask for Desire.
- In the end Desire is overwhelmed by the make-over and the mask and agrees to be the date of The Forge at the party.
- The eviction of Exar
- Nash, Whisper contacts the Power of Traps and Hunting for help to trap and remove Exar.
- Eletronics and Self help create a box that Nash puts a big fuck-off alien bomb into and sends it to Traps with the request for help.
- Traps would provide a stasis chamber and Whisper.
- Whisper tricks Exar to follow him into the tunnels beneath the Chancel. Nash stands in the real world on the boat in the Bermuda Triangle with the stasis chamber. Together they blast a hole in the chancel and throw Exar through it into the Stasis chamber.
- The chamber is taken to the Nordic pole to be kept in the mothership of an alien race frozen there.
- The next day the Unbeheld reveals the nature of Exar and the Chancel Stone
- Returning to the mothership it is found that Traps has stolen the stone, killing Exar, and rigged the whole mothership to be one gigantic trap.
- Nash snaps back the ship to his own domain and flies it to the Chancel.
- Traps says he will give back the stone if the characters can point out who is responsible for Global Warming and give a good juicy nettling situation of that Noble.
- The truth is that Global Warming is an Urban Legend.
- The Party
- The Gods are picked up by ship from New York and taken to the Chancel through the Bermuda Triangle.
- The first day was just mingling.
- Can someone please remind me what Gods were dealing and scheming in their own ways here?
- On the second day there was a hunt for the Psychic Beast. The hunt led the party to a pocket-world within the chancel, hiding a small town where the inhabitants had been twisted and mutaded. They attacked the Gods, but were disposed. The Beast was hunted into a large cave where it was shown to be only a small part of the actual Beast, the mysterious flesh-tree with a 100 people hanging from the ceiling, screaming for the death of the Gods.
- Nash sought the advice from the Unbeheld and was told to leave the town immediately.
- Before anyone retreated though, the tree had skinned the power of Traps.
- Still before retreat, the Realm-strong Psionics brought down the cave over the flesh-tree, killing it.
- Within the trunk lay an exact copy of Psionics, dead.
- On the third day there was the war game.
- After the war game, there was the banquette.
- Nash gave the world's most famous caver to cook as a revenge on The White Lady.
- The retelling of the triumph over the Excrucian was interrupted by Nash's ex ghost who retold teh truth. Attempting to stop her by removing the sound around her failed as she communicated through lip-reading.
- Later one mask was missing. By asking the chancel it was found that most likely, Gaston had tracked down The White Lady and had her help him to leave the chancel through one of her tunnels with his mask.
