S11: The fish at Lake Zarovich

General Summary

Half of the party reaches the Lake Zarovich Vistani Camp where they find a young man being punished screaming and tied to a post in the middle of the tent. The young man Alexey was tasked with taking care of the little girl of Arrigal, but he has failed, and such Arabelle has gone missing for more than a day. Everyone involved, including Luvash has been searching for the girl.

While the other half of the party is travelling at a very relaxed pace, taking a stroll through the forest to reach Lake Zarovich to bathe and look for The Mysterious Wizard missing powerful artifacts.

They eventually reach the lake and find a fisherman throwing some bags of bait in the lake. Whatever is in the bags though is moving and struggling.

However since they took suuuuuuch a long time walking through the forest, the other half of the party reaches the lake at the same time and they begin investigating the fisherman and what is in the bags.

Turns out the contents of the bags are the dog Mutt and the missing girl Arabelle.

A fish takes the bait and makes it's way to where everyone is, and then is mercilessly obliterated for existing.

The party retrieves the daughter and the dog, brings them back to camp, cut and cook the fish which is good.

For their effort they are rewarded with a book(yay?).

Since fisherman is unconscious we don't know why he abducted and used the girl and dog as bait, and he did not speak a single word to anyone.
