Prison Life is Not for Me

On our way to Nahanial's lair, we spotted a croaked farmer in a field. Poor guy looked like he was scared when he bit it. He had long gashes on him that looked unnaturally sharp; not like an animal's claw marks anyways. We decided to bury him and when done, Rex took the shovel. Must think it has magical properties or something.
Continuing on, I spot one of those mushrooms Portia needs for her bear. I sneak in like a pro and snagged that mushroom! I turn to sneak away and trip over the vine blight's vines! HELP! There is a vine blight and three twig blights. I think a second about my situation and decide to try the ring Nahanial gave me. I concentrate and sure enough, I charmed that nasty vine blight! I ask him to give me all his shrooms and then scarper off so we don't have to kill him. Score! I got 7 mushrooms for my efforts and he shuffles off. Saved my skin again! Thank the 12 I'm a halfling.
At Nahanial's we learn that the gem in the obelisk is a fake! Gotta admire that thievery scheme. Apparently someone with a lot of technical skill would have to have pulled it off. Probably some artificer in town.
Wait, what about that guy in town that's making all the ~~prosthetics~~ replacement arms and legs! I remember them having glowing red shards on them as power sources. We'll have to go back to town and figure out who is making them.
Get back to town and we are tossed in the city lockup! I secreted my lockpicks in my hair bun in case they search me. Humans and their jails. We halflings see a lot of them. Luckily Donaar pulls his royalty card. I didn't even know he was of royal birth! It works and he claims I'm his assistant. Pfft. Yeah, right!
Well, I may be dumb, but I know when to keep my mouth shut. We get shunted to premium accommodations. These I've never seen. We even get fed real food! I take the time to eat and then pretend to polish Donaar's armor while he talks to the warden.
We are eventually released and we go back to the inn. I decide to head to the blacksmith and pay him to make me an adamantine rapier. I stop at the gnome house and send my sister a few mushrooms for her bear.
Eventually we meet up with the others and decide to go exterminate the will-o-the-wisps behind the farmer's murders. We find them and kill them, but they puff into smoke upon death so there is no proof that we killed them. Such a waste. Should have left the shifters to do the dirty work.
