Session 1 - "Menace Under Otari - Part 1"
General Summary
Introduction
If you have a job in Otari, it either has to do with lumber or fish. The regular jobs are all populated by longtime residents and in some cases even get passed down within families (father to son, etc.). There is other work in Otari, though it is often seasonal or one-off:
The Raiboren brothers have have been in Otari for at least a year, and at some point, they became friends with Wrin Sivinxi. While eccentric, she is also patient, and can discuss most topics. Wrin's Wonders has become the group’s sort of "unofficial" hang. Amongst many things, Wrin has a bit of an obsession with tea, and she usually hosts the group to a weekly tea party - Hang out, drink weird tea, shoot the shit, etc. When times have been especially hard, she has provide opportunities to make a coin (never a charity, always a job), whether that be for her, or introducing you to another community member that had a paying job. Few days ago Wrin had confided in the brothers that there is something in the air, something in the way the stars have been aligning makes her think that a test is coming. Moreover, Ehrn and Tristan have been thinking that it is time to hang up the sword and armor, and live a normal life. "I fear that they are making the wrong decision, and their skills will yet be needed. One day they will get what they seek, but that day is not now." She also shares that she had a strange dream where the stars were different, misaligned, and not in their right places. "Just an FYI dear, Tamily has been looking for you all, some kind of job, so you may want to find your friends. Opportunity knocks! Oh yes!" She hands Kalitos a small leather pouch with coins. "The Stars told me you may find this useful for a friend in need." She winks at them and shoos them off… Gozran 26 4721 AR, Springtime

Zor'ahn, approached by Tamily, who tells him that something is eating the fish in their underground warehouse at the fishery and she would like his help. Giant centipedes suddenly attack as the the party gathers together. The monstrous insects have been popping up around town lately. Zor'ahn gives Kalitos a book, and Kalitos gives Tristan Wrin's bag.

After eating, the adventures visit with Grog the cook in the kitchen who gives them key to the basement door. They use it and go downstairs. 4.10p
The party descends the stairs into a finished and well kept, but dark, basement. Several barrels of salted fish have been smashed open, their contents scattered about and eaten. There are visible rocks on the floor from a hole, or cave in, on the eastern wall. As they approach the opening, a strange chittering sound comes of the hole and a rat the size of a dog attacks...
