Investigating the Sewers

The group converses with different characters (captain Emberpyke, Lyn) and eventually gets the mission to go into the sewers to investigate for Kobold (with the Mirabar dwarf in their company). However, instead of heading towards the kobolds, the group tries to find Gary. After fighting a sewer alligator and a few rats, they find him and try to diplomatically get information from him in order to contact the Snow Fox. When Barathos realizes that Gary is not being forthcoming and trying to deceive them, he attempts to grapple the man in order to intimidate him, but Gary turns into a swarm of rats and summons a giant scorpion.
 
After Barathos nearly dying and the scorpion tearing the Mirabar dwarf in half, the group finally subdues Gary and kills the scorpion (and any rats that were present). They then question Gary and decide to bring the dwarf's corpse back to the church of Roke in order to see if a resurrection is possible.
