Zadash, city of coincidences

by Marya Silverstring

So still in the investigation, still in town and still thinking about what to do
Seb brings up visiting the Cobalt Soul again
While going back to the tavern is also on the table
So back to the tavern we go
And whyever Balak disguises himself as a halfling ô.o
 
Seems a platin haired half elf is trying to pick up Balak
Well go him
Seems like she's interested in our group? ô.o
The other two really want to cockblock Balak, well that is mean
The person knows Seb and Melech
She claims to work with the Cobalt Soul
Says she's called Vera and she's researching some connection stuff
Okay wants to know stuff about Vecna
 
So we try to get her off our back by giving her the info
We're pretty open with giving up that stuff
Seb is cautious if whether she's a vampire
He wants Melech to scan her with the detect evil stuff
He then does some magical stuff
I still don't completely trust Melech's judgement
 
She then tries to connect the vampire stuff to the Pala family
Which we're really careful about, especially when she tries to get info on our employer
Since I've got Magnolia on my head I hit at the thing trying to touch the back of my neck
I still don't trust Vera, though it seems a little mutual
She still tries to gauge little bits of info out of us
Yeahhh Balak doesn't hold his drink well
And Seb forges a small holy symbol
Then after some time Seb and Melech head out to get Seb's clothes
 
So it's only Balak, Vera and me back in the tavern
Okay Balak starts sleeping and gets taken up to his room
After some time Magnolia takes off
Some more talking with Vera
She tries to insinuate a lot of illegal stuff in cant
I stick to clean talk
Seems like she's connected to people
And has one older sibling
Then there's a quick fight between Magnolia and her fairy
Some more talk
The fairies disappear into my backpack
 
Then Seb and Melech come back
We have some more talk stuff
Then we go back to Seb's room
And there she shows off her fairy
She's called Amaryllis
We also introduce Magnolia
And Melech introduces K'van
 
Since it's a lot of coincidences I ask for the sign of the silver arrow
Vera doesn't know anything
Her companion knows about the Moon Weaver
But it seems like they're not directly connected
Also she doesn't seem to know much about smuggled slaves of any kind
 
And Melech checked with Thourmalin regarding Vera
Seemingly she doesn't mind the info being shared
Ok.....
He also spills the beans about the street urchin and the house in the tri spires
And Vera seems to be interested in getting information for herself on the case and the person responsible
 
I then bring up that Melech might get recognized and people might come after his family if he gets seen breaking and entering
And Seb works his magic to disguise Melech
With that we start towards the Tri Spire and the secret entrance to get in
