This is a short summary of the exciting events of session 3, in which the party searched out the deed to an abandoned warehouse, and additionally was almost killed by a druid and 3 baboons. No doubt this post will need to be rewritten as this is a grossly abbreviated recollection.
In this episode:
- The group went to see Assistant Constable Garack to establish a reward for any further information on the kobold threat. He was not at the station, because he was promoted in recognition of his valor. Constable Garack was now stationed at the construction site for a new stockade to separate the Noble quarter from the Merchant quarter. Garack informed the party that matters outside the walls were not in the jurisdiction of the city watch, but he did arrange for a bounty for each kobold killed or woman returned. He also mentioned that the Merchant quarter has a zero lean-to policy.
- Brother Meriam informed Apical that some sort of trouble was brewing in the Eastern section of the Merchant quarter, but that he did not know what it was. The team decided to investigate.
- Skon, a cheerful guy who claims to open a few doors and be from Lordshome, offered to accompany the party after Garack told him that the party was looking for help.
- Big Jim and Apical intervened to prevent a mob from stoning an old man who was claiming that there are realms outside of Vestibule. This was clear blasphemy and Apical advised him not to just start shouting whatever he dreamt up.
- The party learned that Sengazia’s borders extend only 1 mile to the east, and few know or care what lies east of the city towards the mountains. The map to the kobold lair indicates that it is 2 miles east of Sengazia.
- Upon investigating the issues in the Eastern section of the city, the party interrogated a baker, a blacksmith, and a cattle foreman. While interrogating the baker, Apical offered to “buy some bread” as a bribe. There was an overgrown warehouse which had some suspicious activity going on for years. The group decided to try and investigate who owned the warehouse. This required a trip to the noble quarter.
- The party went to the records building, where Sreepal (a half-elf clerk) copied a document for them. Notable here was that the payment records were written in cow’s blood. In order to try and resolve the pending legal matters around the building, the party tried to see Magistrate Garth. Unfortunately, to see Magistrate Garth they needed a lawyer, so they hired Gagang.
- Gagang is an elderly gnomish lawyer who had few clients. His normal cases are murder cases, and he even won an acquittal once. Of course the rest of his clients ended up dead.
- In the end after much merriment the party entered the abandoned warehouse and was attacked by a crazed druid and his 3 baboons. Both characters ended up with 1 or 2 hp left before taking out the enemies and being rewarded with very little loot; 2 broadswords were the biggest take.
- The party met Jernix, a dwarven cleric of the Waiting who offered to help kill kobolds. He does not like liver.
