Duadi, 2nd Day of the Hunter

—> Belfras is working on something, only interested in help from someone that has been in The Weave,
—> Rhyke found out from Belfras where a set of sending stones was located, 2 stones of charm: pick between improvement - give +1 bonus to next ability check, capacity - increase carry by 50 lbs for 1 hour, or movement - increase walking speed by 10 ft for 1 minute - one time use stones, everyone left them in the cabinet left a stone with Belfras
  Left to see Nikko Runesky about another set of stones, Tiefling courier found us to deliver a message inviting us to Barsk’s home for lunch
  —> Spoke to Nico and purchased sending stones,
—> Set up the other stone with Halthir, spoke with Magnus Copperbeard about going to investigate Drace Talbot’s farm and then took our horses with us to get to Barsk’s house,
  Barsk’s Manor:
  —> Penda Towerfall is head of security
—> Met a couple of the employees, Barsk invited us to the dinner party he is throwing for the Marblesong Society members, - we are invited more to become the entertainment/shock value
  Talbot Farm:
  —> Headed to investigate, farm appears to be abandoned
—> Zoda became aware of movement in one of the rooms, fight ensued, dispatched the creatures, investigated them, wearing the same cloaks as the cultists we fought previously, Juni found a pouch with 15 gold, Rhyke started to investigate the building
—> black paint smear on a door, symbol matches those used to represent Daak,
Daak is the original evil of Anide, The Whisperer is their 2nd in command
Daak tried to destroy Anide and caused the Cataclysm
Not uncommon to find his worshipers, they have a tendency to want to see the world burn
