Old Friends

A tavern brawl erupted, initiated by Janek, leading to chaos and Janek's ejection. Mordrack recognized a dragonborn and witch hunter, triggering suspicion. The figures left, advising the party to stay out of their business. Mordrack tracked them to an alley, where they met a hooded man. The party investigated and encountered Gared from the Whisper Guild, who offered gold for silence. Mea attempted to tackle Gared but failed, resulting in a dangerous confrontation.

The tavern brawl, initiated by Janek, escalated quickly and it wasn't long before the other party members got involved in the fight. Janek was knocked unconscious immediately while the rest of the party dealt with the brawling patrons. After a few minutes order was restored and the party went back to their table. Janek was kicked out of the tavern for his actions.   As the party sat and enjoyed their drinks Mordrack noticed the two characters that had entered during the brawl. They were sat across the common room from them. The large red dragon born and human witch hunter seemed to mind their own business, but Mordrack recognised the dragonborn. Long ago Mordrack's clan was brutally murdered, and Mordrack was the only survivor through sheer luck and a pact made with an evil deity. Mordrack had been on a quest for vengeance ever since.   Mordrack informed the rest of the party about these figures. Eventually the two figures noticed the party looking at them and grinned back at them. This triggered a response from Mea, who approached them and asked them about their business. The two were very secretive and showed little interest in Mea or the group. Eventually they left the tavern, stopping by the party and telling them not to stick their nose in other peoples business.   The group got suspiscious, and thought they might be involved with the Whisper Guild. Mordrack decided to track them in bat form. The two meandered through the Slums as Mordrack kept close behind, until they came to an alley, where they briefly stopped. Eventually they met with a hooded man, and seemed to discuss something, though Mordrack was unable to hear what they were talking about. Eventually everyone left and mordrack returned to inform the group what he had found.   The group decided to investigate the alley. As they approached they found Gared, a member of the Whisper Guild that Mordrack had met earlier. Jared told them to stop getting involved in the missing person's cases and offered them some gold to keep quiet. The group wanted to know what was going on, but Jared refused to answer. Eventually Mordrack took the gold, though he didn't explicitly say he agreed to Jared's terms.   Jared then left the alley. Mea had been lurking from the roofs and noticed there were archers located in strategic positions. He didn't want to let Jared escape and jumped him as he tried to leave, attempting to tackle him with his signature move: a dropkick. He failed, Jared dodged and put a sword on Mea's throat. He mumbeled, "hmmm, you couldn't let it go, could you?"
