General Summary

Corellonember 1, 1093 2:00pm 4 NPCs Eloi, Sivor, Tremon and Light and 7 remaining horses
We go to the guard towers to see if something happened. We see a conflict between a guard captain and the guard on duty Jim who skipped his shift to get drunk. We witness him get fired by Captain Chil (one L) and talk to him. Turns out he’s also into smuggling.
Possessions aren’t allowed here and people are assigned work and aren’t payed for it. The government provides all the food and necessities.
We get him to show us his passport that has his personal information and description as well as a specific stamp for Anastas. Every city has a different official stamp.
As we approach the Jaunty Leghole we see a bunch of people exiting the bar.
Inside there is a Magnus vampire spawn Franz knows, Rifer, who bullied him as a child, who is holding up the bartender with one hand before impaling him on his taxidermied moose and holding a sword to his chest.

by Asharene Shadowthorn I walk in super later and Some guy named Ryfer is holding Franz as a human shield. He's been holding onto Franz's mother's body as a trophy this whole time. he's a dickhead. He's a really powerful vampire spawn. He utterly kicks our ass, and is having so much fun about it he mercy leaves us so he can toy with us another day.
I guess we were trying to save a guy on the wall or something? He starts to groan and Jo and Hyadr pull him down and heal him. We question this guy. He tells us these vampire spawns were looking for us.
There is a prison with a couple of hundred prisoners. About 1 guard for every 10 prisoners. Ryfer checks in every once in a while. It's mostly young people in there they can use for mining
There is a guy named Chil who is loyal to the Magnuses. Oh. He rules the city or something. There is also a Mayor, but chil is the captain of the guard.
Eloi says he's done a prison break here before, and were' like, yeah, let's break out these people. I guess there is an underground way to get inside.
I guess we end up killing the guy on the wall.
We go sleep in a small home with someone we know. While resting a thick fog sets in on the town. Franz flies up to see it, and sees a white cape down below. actually. there were windows and some bats flew in I guess....We fight them, and Franz has an epiphany on the icebox spell he's been trying to learn and now knows how to cast it....for free...
We learn bats are actually attacking the whole city and we hear wolves. We decide to make a run for it, and we bring these 2 people who helped us with us, so the Magnuses don't kill them.
We separate and all the NPCs go togher and the rest of us plus Eloi go together. We head towards the prison.
As we start to leave, we see the bats/wolves scratching at peoples doors. There is a man with a pitchfork surrounded by 12 wolves trying to fend them off. WE defeat the wolves and save him.
We get through the city avoiding a bunch of stuff and are detected by a guy in a white cloak, but he just kind of mocks us and disappears.
We go to leave and the fog dissipates. We are surrounded by villagers who seem like they are going to capture us. If they don't attack us or if they run, Rifer will kill their families.
The guy with the pitchfork is there and he begs the villagers to stand down, and with a great speech from Franz, they do stand down. However, Franz promised to helped them which means we have to save the town now. After a lot of arguing with each other, we decide to go back to the center of town to try and stop whatever is happening.
Eloi is like we can go back through sewers and get to the center of town. There is a red ooze around a pipe of a fountain. Panfyr figures out that this ooze contains little seeds of teleportation. So somewhere else there are wolves and bats and other things, and htis slime lets them teleport in.
Panfy is like, we could get into the bag of devouring. She uses a mage hand to scoop this.
This doesn't quite work and Panfyr ends up feeling super attached to the slime, and then it turns into her mom.
Panfyr looks confused but very happy to see her mom, and this is where we end.
