Cat Got Your Tongue?

General Summary

Having captured the duregar and ikati, the party grilled the two for answers. The learned that they were members of the Oiled Hand, a growing bandit clan that specialized in stealing vitraxine. The ikati is a Collector: someone who infiltrates cities to find targets and handles an occasional cat burglary type heist. After overhearing Bahubat's plans to murder the two, the ikati implied her persona was well known and killing her would lead to a hunt for the party. Bahubat was unswayed, but the rest of the party ultimately chose to bring them to Calcus and turn them over to the authorities. The party set up camp. During his watch, Bahubat investigated a sound and shot at what he thought was fish. This led to a swarming of scuttlers that the party quickly dispatched before finishing the night's rest.
