See You Later, Alligator

24th of Wintercrest 243
Bounty from Maurice Henderson: Fishermen spooked away from Broken Brook fishing operation. A creature had emerged from the river and almost drowned one of them. 15g.
 
Working with Cass and Morning again. A new soul named Oliver also joined us. Tall, lanky and the characteristic pupilless white eyes. Rude. The man who gave us the bounty, Maurice Henderson, is also coming with us. Terrible teeth. Refused to let me work on them. Both Cass and Oliver act as though they are brick walls. Completely uninterested in pleasant conversation.
 
We will set out in the morning.

Did calisthenics with Morning this morning before we headed out towards the Broken Brook.

The beast turned out to be an alligator of some sort. Massive bugger. I was less surprised by than by the fact that Cass seems to some sort of fire witch and Oliver may or may not be a ghost. Oliver went full incorporeal on us for a bit.
 
Morning had words with me about not helping Cass when she was hurt. My main thought had been she was seemed extremely capable and wouldn’t need my help at all. I am used to people not appearing how they are. My assumption was that she was stronger than she looked. I would hazard to say that in many ways I am right.
