Session 13: An Assignment Completed
General Summary
The adventuring band harvested the remains of the monsters (later identified as Cave Fishers) and made their way back to Ullford, advising the relevant parties that the problem is resolved.
On the way back, Falco rescued a horse - presumed to be Faldan's runaway - and brought it with them back to Ullford, where they found Faldan had decided to return and perform. They also spotted the hollowed out piece of wood, in which a pouch of gold was discovered on the outward journey, had been smashed to pieces.
Once in Ullford, the group used the code phrase and route to the Silent Shadows shown by Hink previously to head down and complete their assignment. There, they provided the head of the monster to the Grandmaster and completed their induction as agents. The rules of the Silent Shadows were explained and full access to the facilities was granted. Only Jraxler took the opportunity to utilise this benefit, the others decided to relax and unwind upstairs in The Hunter's Purse. Jraxler learned the name of the creatures they fought as well as others that may dwell in what's known as the 'Undrelm'.
During the night, Falco and Leo had significant and seemingly interactive dreams. Falco, transported to frozen landscape in a perpetual blizzard was advised by a never-coalescing humanoid figure that something troubles Brinewatch, his home. Leo was taken to a similar locale, but the air was still and the figure fully formed - a woman, dressed in fine garb. She had braided long blonde, almost silvery, hair and piercing blue eyes. Leo recognised the figure as the form of Essina, the goddess of winter, they have been guided by for 20 years or so. To Leo, Essina warns of the dangers ahead and the her chosen will be required soon, the other chosen has been found - Leo believing this to be Falco - and to look after them.
In the morning, the group agree to head in the direction of Brinewatch, but they needed to check in with a few locals first. Soldunn, at the crack of dawn, before any others are awake visted Halatir to have a conversation he had been needing to make since he first walked into the shop that fateful day. Halatir's part of the deal for retrieving the amulet wasn't just money, but information - information he couldn't share with other people around. Halatir regretfully informed he couldn't find out much, but it seemed like The Grey Scales were hired as protection for an expedition to the Temple of Fior Equas and the person dear to Soldunn was part of that group.
Falco acquired his trident from the blacksmiths and the materials for further familiar summoning from the herbalist. The council agreed to let the group keep the cart for future endeavours, but advised their reward for helping save the town was going to be ready soon. The group, however, had a destination in mind already and headed off on the Undall Road.
