Rasvyn has scryed on the Magic Carpet and seen it abandoned in the dwarven tomb of Sartine.
Dramos and Harbinger purchase a furnished, two-bed house secretly on the corner of Catcher's Way and Westgate Street.
Gartok enriches all the plants in a half-mile radius, increasing the crop yield.
Rasvyn commissions an exquisite chest from Perfect Glass, along with a tiny replica.
Gartok digs up some money for Reinholt. Then, Reinholt picks up a bunch of supplies. There are now three potion shops in town - Lotion and Libations, Tonics and Tinchers and Roxy Stone.
Reinholt seems a little on edge as he walks through the streets of Myste-Hass. He appears unsettled by the idea that people perceive the Murder Squad as dangerous - as God Killers.
A couple of days pass. Reinholt, Maolmhuire, Rasvyn, Gartok, Dramos and Harbinger meet in the Hung Goat. A few people recognise the group.
Corym is at the Tower of Dariss dealing with the magical circles.
Dramos orders breakfast and a selection of drinks from the bar, the ales are Raring Eagle, Slog or Old Stinky. Apparently, Old Stinky has been very popular. There are three wines on Jail House, Red Ribbon and Myloch's Wish. For liqueurs, they stock a top shelf drink - Dragon's Milk - which is 25gp per glass. It's a thick, chocolatey liquid.
Reinholt is shocked by Dramos's generosity, but the tiefling says that he is grateful for being brought back.
Dragon's Milk has twelve shots in and removes a level of exhaustion. There are some ambiguous side-effects regarding threat responses and bravery in the face of fear.
Moalmhuire has been in the Tower of Garr, exploring.
Maolmhuire mentions that Father Howell wants to speak with Reinholt.
Kerris Quiverstock is performing his classic song Hey NaNa-Na BaNa-Na-Na-Na Song, his voice a little raspy. Dramos casts a spell on him to improve his ability. He performs a foot stamper about a dragon - Dragon Slayer.
The group head to see Yanif at Lotion and Libation, heading through the busy Market Square. There is a bit of a commotion coming from the Arena.
Yanif offers a crunchy, spicy snack. He says he has lost his daughter. He claims that if it could be undone, it would upset the natural order of things.
Yanif seems very grateful for the groups efforts towards the town. He gives the group quite a discount. He enphaissies the other potions shops are not offering a good deal in terms of quality.
Maolmhuire has a staff, the Justice of Ioners, without any charges, that was created by Ioners Gellion during the War of Divinity, a staunch worshipper of Peridot.
Yanif says he used a Genai Stone to recharge a magical item that had expended its power. Blood Stones are particularly effective for this. He is willing to show Maolmhuire how it works if he is brought a Genai Stone.
Yanif agrees to put the potion of enlargement beneath the counter with no deposit because of the repore that they have built. Dramos then buys all of the other potions and the group splits them up.
Apparently, Roxy Stone has been selling potions at half price to put Yanif out of business.
The group sets off to Rasvyn's House, Maolmhuire cutting off to The Temple of Garr. Reinholt sends Gremlin over to The Arena and sees Lorey fighting, one limp arm.
Mehklan greets Moalmhuire bitterly when he returns to the Temple of Garr. The head priest locks himself in his office, his undead acolytes still on one side, and removes the cloth from the pool. The blood ripples gently, then rises. Blood rolls off a feminine form.
Maolmhuire states, "I require knowledge."
"I have knowledge. You are more powerful now, arent you? How can I serve you?"
The pool admits that she has all the knowledge of every previous owner of blood that is within her pool. She gives information on the Tower of Garr. It is one of six, some older than others. There is the Tower of Dariss, a new thing built by crusaders, by different people who built the tower of Garr. The tower of luck is close, shrouded in woodland. But, for what you need, you should find the Tower of Peridot far to the north, in a cold land overlooking a harbour. There you will find all the knowledge that this land has forgotten.
Maolmhuire asks if the pool can be move. She can be moved, and taken to the Tower of Garr. However, for every drop of blood that has been lost is power diminished.
She requires more blood and Maolmhuire promises some soon. She then claims that she is joined with Maolmhuire. He asks for more information, but she simply says she will wait.
Reinholt heads into The Arena to see the fight with three warriors. Lorey is stumbling, his speed lacking with all his shots. Part of his face is badly damaged as well. He is breathing heavily. After the match, Reinholt intervenes, healing. But, the nacrotic damage is not healed. Reinholt is forced to pull him back.
Lorey claims that the Silent Stalkers set upon him, and took him elsewhere. When they were killed, they turned into people. Reinholt gives him a pair of Boots of Striding and Springing. He thinks he doesn't deserve them. Reinholt says that the squad are going to fight Fate himself very soon, and Reinholt wishes Lorey to be there. They talk about this being Dariss's wishes. Lorey admits that every time he loses, the people in the audience do not worship Dariss. He believes that getting people to worship the six, that is how you defeat Fate.
Lorey is brought to Rasvyn's.
