Found Fathers

 


8 Marpenoth, 1489 DR


Breakfast was interrupted by loud caravans entering the town. Poppy reminded us that the farmers market was today and we all decided to check it out. It was my first farmers market so Poppy decided to show me the ropes. We visited lots of stalls and I bought a bobble head and a flower from the Feywilds. The rest of the group bought some grab bags and of course Bella ended up with an item that almost destroyed the town. She blew into a purple worm whistle and summoned a purple worm. Poppy got eaten as we fought to save her. After we defeated the worm, Poppy was scarred for life as we finished up our shopping.

We headed to the large tower in the middle of town to help out with one of the quests we found on the board in the tavern. Apparently guards had spotted a ghost in the tower and a man named Gallio wants it gone. We searched through the tower and books were flung at us, whispers in our ear, our reflections aging as we walked over dirty puddles. Let's just say it wasn't fun. Eventually Bella pissed off the ghost (who apparently was a wizard that owned the tower) and got possessed. Thanks to Poppy and Corwina we were able to get rid of the ghost as long as we bury his remains near some dandelions. 

After, some soldiers came up to Togar but thought that he was someone else. Poppy had an idea that they could be talking about Togar's dad and we decided to talk to Amber for whatever reason. We learned that she use to be in the military with Poppy and Togar's (alleged) fathers. They decided to talk in private so I had Bella attune a magical ring for me while the others sat close by.

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. ...
