As the Protectors of the Pass rose from their rest, the Lyceum campus was buzzing with rumors. Gilver Fern informed the party and the students that a devil had been captured in the night. Realizing this was the tall figure that Myetharia had witnessed during her watch, the party inquired further, learning that the erinyes would be executed at midday. Finding their way to the town center, the Protectors watched as a seemingly displeased Simeon oversaw the public beheading of the devil.
Knowing the hour was soon, Jack and Winry prepared for their performance. Heading to the galleon of the Wayfarers, Jack and Winry were summoned, and took the stage. Winry's acrobatics and magical abilities were superb, and won much attention and admiration. However, Jack was unable to capitalize on the opportunity, and his part of the performance was a disaster. Afterward, Winry was offered a position in the Wayfarer's upcoming show by Sheena Larkins, the guildmaster of the Wayfarers. Informing Sheena that she would consider, Winry was given two days to make her decision.
Departing the galleon, the Protectors headed back to the magistrate's office to learn more about a new mission - several supply caravans had disappeared on the road to Seaquen, and stocks were running low. The magistrate Lorb Vortberd told the party that if they could find and stop the source of these disappearances, they would be handsomely rewarded. Deciding it was time to once again dive into the fray, the Protectors of the Pass geared up, ready to head into the swamps outside Seaquen to end this threat.
