Session 2: Tunnels and Turbulence Report

General Summary

The party meets a pink tiefling girl named Bebe, who the sword claims is their master. Bebe has a hopper, but its only big enough for a crew of 3 at most. Bebe agrees to let the party modify her hopper in exchange for their help in retrieving an artifact.
After successfully retrieving the relic and modifying the hopper, the party begins preparations to leave the island. Before they can make their getaway however, they are confronted by a member of the The Iron Hand, revealing that the princess Tina and Balagog are currently being hunted by the Empire.  After defeating the officer and avoiding the notice of an Alyssian warship, the party slowly makes their way to Braedon to deliver the artifact to Bebe's father.
The hopper runs out of fuel a couple dozen miles from the town, and the party is forced to make their way on foot. Luckily the party encounters a young man named Wrerick. Wrerick makes enough fuel for the hopper to make to the town as payment for the party's help in healing his pack mule. 
Upon reaching the town of Braedon, Bebe lead the party to the estate of the Marquee. Bebe happens to be one of Marquee Leroux Ruaidhri's many children, one of the only Oussian nobles who kept their position after the war.
Tina decides to trust the marquee and reveals her identity as princess to him. The marquee promises to keep this a secret, but is unable to directly assist her in any way.
Later that night, some party members witness a strange ritual involving the entire Ruaidhri family and the relic from Grimfellow. After the ritual is completed, one of the children attempts to attack the others, but is quickly disabled (and possibly killed) by the party.
