- Irredel took wolfsbane morning of 9th—controlled wolf form expected tonight (Session 19 @ 37:16)
- Wolfsbane confirmed active 9th afternoon—no feral transform tonight; controlled wolf form if needed (Session 20 @ 00:46:37)
- Lady Fiona Wachter does not know Irredel is werewolf (Session 20 @ 00:52:02)
- Wolfsbane failed to stop early transformation signs; basement silver shackles (Session 21 @ 01:26:44)

- Midnight transform: bit Sildir; Dr. Rudolph van Richten amputated Sildir left arm (Session 22 @ 00:58:00)
- Midnight vision: Irredel accepted bone-throne woman's offer out of desperation; woke human—told party she overcame via sheer will, did not elaborate (Session 22 @ 00:58:00, 01:26:11)
- Shackles overnight by choice (Session 22 @ 01:00:00)
- Quest complete: party obtained church aid—Ember and Saturno trance ended on town entry (Session 9 @ 00:13:11); Irredel survived 9th full moon and woke human, claiming she overcame transformation via sheer will (Session 22 @ 01:26:11). Unconfirmed: bone-throne woman's offer, dream-hunger, and whether future moons remain safe without wolfsbane (Session 22 @ 00:58:00; Session 21 @ 01:19:59)
Next steps
- Resolved — church aid obtained; Irredel's lycanthropy seemingly under control after full moon (Session 22 @ 01:26:11)
- Open questions: bone-throne dream figure; long-term cure vs. suppression; future full moons without moonstone exposure (Session 22 @ 00:40:00; Session 18 @ 02:38:37)
