Prisoners Freed

1 Marpenoth 1489 DR


Today we were summoned to meet a Half Orc about a dangerous magical weapon. After meeting with her I saw another Shifter in the corner of the Inn who was sitting at a table with a curly haired human woman. I panicked and hurried out the door. She was part of the tribe. What was she doing all the way in Phlan?This was bad. Im banished. If she saw me she could tell the tribe and they'd be pissed i'm traveling around, endangering the amulet. I'm suppose to be protecting it. If I died from adventuring it could be stolen and...the tribe would be doomed.

Rain did come up to me after. Apparently she talked to the Shifter and learned stuff about Cwl being "evil". Rain didn't seem to believe it though. That's good.

After that was done, Leo appeared at our place again with some info. He found the slave traders' hideout. We decided to pretend that Leo was going to sell Rain, Luna and Catscratch while I was a body guard. We got inside and easily fooled the Black Fists into thinking he was selling them. As the group was taken to the cells, Luna wrapped her handcuffs around a guards neck and started choking him out. It was definitely on at that point. Rain and Catscratch had a few close calls but we worked together to fight them all off.

We freed the prisoners and headed home. Rain said goodbye to the kittens as they were now reunited with their mother and Catscratch said his goodbyes as Leo left to get the other Kenkus to a safe place. It was a bittersweet moment. I know we aren't hero's but, honestly, I felt glad we were able to help so many people and reunite families. It's important to be with the ones you truly care about. Maybe I should stop caring so much about the tribe. They've done nothing for me. Catscratch, Luna, Rain and Winny. I think, maybe, I can call them my home.

The Redbrands

13 Alturiak 1489 DR Today we decided to do some shopping. Catscratch went off on his own to who knows where while Luna and I visited the Shrine of Luck. Luna gave a coin in hopes for some good luck. If she wants to waste her coin on such things, by all means. But luck isn't going to help you survive in this world. Catscratch quickly appeared before us and even brought someone I've never seen before, a tall cat with a leafy looking cloak. A Tabaxi, I believe they're called. She introduced herself as Rain and told us she had also been hired but was running late. She was asking around town for Gundren but found out about him missing. We decided to deal with the Redbrand situation once and for all after hearing how they were kidnapping people from the town. Once inside the hideout, we were separated when the floor collapsed from underneath us. Luna and I were on one side, Catscratch and Rain on the other. We reluctantly decided to split up. I was honestly a little worried a...

The Book Thief (Part 2)

22 Eleint 1489 DR We finally met up with the head librarian and he told us about some of his staff missing. He told us to check the archives since that's where the two were suppose to be on duty today. The archives were huge but we found the area. We were too late once we noticed the dead body hunched over a table with piles of books. We did notice two of the books that were stolen were now open on the table with pages ripped out about the Pool of Radiance. Suddenly, a shockwave and rumble rang through out the archives as all the book cases toppled over. A hole was blown into a wall and we went to investigate. We found a room with old, burnt, books and were attacked by shadows. Luna was downed quickly while the rest of us finished them off. With Luna back on her feet, we hurried through another hole in the wall and ended up in the sewers. Luna caused these giant centipedes to fall asleep as we snuck by. After two hours of walking we ended up in the mouth of a cave and in the middle...

Fairy Dust

30 Alturiak 1489 DR We've finally reached Red Larch. I was pretty familiar with the area since it's so close to the city of Yartar and, well, my ruins. We decided to help out some guy by killing wolves for pelts. As we entered the Krypt Garden Forest, we ran into a small pixie named Quill and his hedgehog steed Spike. This pixie wanted us to help him find a magical well that apparently heals any mounds. His wings were broken so he was hoping to get them fixed. We agreed to help in the morning as Quill lead us to the fairy trees. Small houses hung from branches. This was my first time ever seeing fairies before and never knew if they truly existed or not. I did barter for a rune stone. Pretty sure I got fire. Time to camp out. Guess I have first watch. In the morning we headed off deeper into the forest. It was darker and quieter, even with the sun high in the sky. Kinda reminded me of the forest surrounding the tribe. Theres nothing to fear in the dark, I've found out. ...
