Breaking of the League
General Summary
Rico, Tiff, Belron and Jaxom gathered in Xiomara to hunt down the Northern Emancipation League. They split up to ask around town, hoping to learn more about them, including their location. They learned that they have been attacking merchants trading with The Hobgoblin Nation and adventuring parties including members of the Arbour Kingdom council or the former Honshu kingdom council. They heard rumours of a large camp north of Clear Frost Lake, but otherwise only heard that the attacks came 'from the forest outside the kingdom.'
When they felt ready, the party travelled east along the road to Drake’s Harbour. After travelling for a couple of hours, they noticed three corpses hanging from trees along the side of the road. The bodies had signs hanging on them which stated that they had been executed by the Northern Emancipation League for crimes against nature. (Starting forest fires and hunting for sport.) After searching for tracks, they decided to cut into the forest at this point and begin their search for the League.
After a little time, Jaxom noticed a somewhat familiar looking set of tracks. They followed these tracks for the rest of the day. After camping out with a quiet night, they continued following the tracks the next morning. They were attacked by an Immense Mandragora, but otherwise the day was quiet. Around mid-day they came across an oddity in the forest. A path of grass and wildflowers which filled them with a sense of peace and tranquility. Following the path led them to an open field.
In that open field, they found Raffyr talking with Old Man Banedar and another man. Approaching, they learned that they had now found the Northern Emancipation League. The other man introduced himself as Carson Visco. He let them know the grievances and demands of the Northern Emancipation League. The party discussed it with him for a few minutes, until another figure emerged from the woods. A female elf, accompanied by a tiger, who introduced herself as Myrinoc, devotee of Mielikki.
Myrinoc reaffirmed the demands of the League: They want Jaxom and Matten to stand trial for their crimes against the people of the former kingdom Honshu, they want F'nor barred from ever holding a position of authority in The Verdant Expanse, and they want the Hobgoblins driven out of The Verdant Expanse. Since the party refused to speak for Matten, she convinced them to allow her to come to the next council meeting of the Arbour Kingdom.
After leaving the woods, Tiff travelled to visit Rymnear and helped him expand his watery domain.
