- The mother of the adventurers slain by the gathius tree in Oakhurst asked us to take up the helm of the Valhaven branch of her Adventurers Company.
☐ We travel for days and eventually see a wild steed galloping towards us

- We continue traveling, and come upon a turned over carriage with what appear to be broken statues.
☐ After several attempts at offensively taking care of the creature, and having two party members nearly turn to stone, Lahfawnduh creates a gaggle of mongeese, which distracts the creature long enough for us to get away... for now.
- At further investigation, we open a metal door in the carriage unknowingly releasing a basilisk.
☐ A couple nights of travel later, we find ourselves around the campfire, pondering what to do for dinner, when a mildly suspicious human woman comes by, holding a spit of rabbits, ready for cooking. Wilhelm is very suspicious of the rabbits, for they dont appear to have any discernible wounds, so the womans claim that she hunted or trapped them didnt add up. However, after making sure they werent poisoned, we allowed her to stay for dinner, and partook in her rabbits. She suspiciously left before we went to sleep, and that night unnatural howls were heard.

- Uligul magic missiles him the fuck out of the sky, then mage hand flips him off.
- Billy investigates the nearby corpse. And fucks it up until its rubble.
- Billy sprints into town, Brumrik walking quickly at his heels arrow drawn. A groove moat about a foot wide encircles the town, with runes inscribed inside the dirt.
- Billy bets Uligul he cant read the runes.
- Ulligul reads the runes.
- Billy jumps over the groove....and nothing happens. They go into town. The design seems similar to Big Town, but there are no skeletons. There are, however, cloaks and clothes laying around.
- Brumrik scavenges through the piles of armor and asks Uligul to identify magical properties. He finds 10 arrows that may have such properties, but not known for now.
- Billy investigates whether the city folk enslaved the Small Town folk. To his knowledge, they did not.
- They decide to sleep in one of these homes. Brumrik takes first watch and sees a ship sailing through the clouds on the north end of the island. Billy takes second watch and sees nothing. Balricstein takes 3rd watch and gets distracted by the architecture.
- As they wake, a mist hangs over the city. The day is theirs, and the book still evades them.👏👏👏👏👏👏

# D&D B-Team -- The plot so far…
The group heads to Candlekeep, but fight monsters in the woods, setting the nearby woods of Candlekeep ablaze. CoF found a plot of corruption and killed three conspirators. The group then made its way west to take a ship up to Daggerford and cut overland towards Valhavan. Earlier, at an inn on the road heading to the coast, they met Shujas former tutor, Rundy. He says there are rumors of cheating and worse at this years annual championship dragonchess tournament. The inn is attacked by bandits, but CoF fights them off with the help of the tutors bodyguard Ungvar. The tutor died though, so Ungvar joins the CoF to protect Shuja as he wished. They are going to get FUCD (the Federal United Conference of Dragonchess), in the city of Fizzulp which is between Valhavan and Daggerford. They continue the journey and see two knolls on the path, who flee after seeing them, thinking CoF are bandits. They find a merchant, Alan, stranded with a broken cart. They fail to fix the cart and actual bandits appear. The merchant panics and runs off into the forest. The group tries to chase after him but he is captured by the bandits. Inferis spiderwalks to the top of the tallest tree in the forest near them, but can only see other trees. After trying to inspire herself, her wild magic surges and she accidentally casts fireball on herself, nearly killing herself. She also sets the trees and forest on fire doing so. Meanwhile, Shuja commands the last bandit kidnapping Alan to halt, and he is magically bound. After interrogating him, Ungvar beheads the frozen-in-place bandit. The CoF follows them back to their hideout and kills all of them, but fail to save the merchant. Finally at the coast, they bluff their way onto a ship heading north, saying they will pay on arrival. During the travel, the ship passes a wreck. Captain Jarlax says “Why, it is the old Speedwell! We have to bring her back with us. Would make us a fortune.” The ship is heavily damaged by powderburn, resulting from explosions and saltwater, but its name is still visible. The air is foul and heavy. There are 16 decomposing corpses on the ship -- most charred. All armaments destroyed or looted. Someone has already salvaged the helm. Plenty of ammunition on board but no treasure. Ship is salvageable. If brought along, would slow ship but could be sold for 4,000 GP at any seaport. The CoF decide to cut the ship loose in the night so they dont lose time. They hide it near the coast where they can find it to later sell. After the captain finds out and gets angry, the CoF instigate a mutiny through persuasion. The crew break into the captains quarters at night, kill him and dump him overboard. When CoF arrive at port in Daggerford, Infaris calls on an underworld contact she knows and sells him the ship, and he says he will take the crew too and pays her more. It is unknown if she understood what she just did.

* Adam bought new books. Reasons players are absent from session:
* Stephen not here because #37: things got a little crazy last night.
* Billy investigates for recent footprints. Seems like its been abandoned a long time. Theres places of worship, but nothing extravagant. Seems to have been slaves or servants. Brumrik stupidly suggests robot arms to support giant sized lifestyle, but Billy intelligently identifies golem suits as the source. They find a golem warehouse and repair shop.
* A golem suit springs to life. Brumrik jumps to negotiate, and steps back (as a joke). Balricstein explains that we work for the one remaining cloud giant, to which he finds disgust. Billy sleazes in and explains “work for” is more of a “adventuring conveniently alongside” or something.
* Billy negotiates with the golem suited fellow and determines he has the same quest a us.
* The golem reveals itself as a halfling in an eyepatch and pipe and karate gee under the golem suit. HEs been here for about 3 weeks. Hes looked up and down the main island, but not the northernmost island. He says the wizards tower (just west of human-town) had a lot of books.
* Billy offers to help him (Davric) if he joins us.
* Davric says we dont seem to be very good warriors, so Brumrik fires a warning shot at his face, which catches the wind and goes straight into his face. Davverick catches it and throws it back in Brumriks face.
* Billy finds a pair of golem...legs. Just legs.
* CoF leaves, and Davric chases after us claiming were fighting.
* They work things out and go to the tower.
* Seeing writing on the wall, Davric speaks some giant language and they rise to the top.
* Lots of books here about transmutation and other arcane stuff.
* Brumrik gets bored and starts knocking books around, but Billy finds the book we seek (Cloud Cities for Dummies) and a book for human sized folk which seems to be a journal. The journal seems to have belonged to Modara? He seems to have been a servant here in town chosen to help the wizard in this tower. On the side, hes learning some of the magical abilities from the wizard. Eventually he finds out the wizard is trying to use human sacrifice to create a magical source for infinite power.
* The wizard giant was named Roswell. Modara stole this magic stone from Rosewell, seeking revenge on the giants.
* Davric chunks over and gets excited about hearing a story, Balricstein makes jerky sandwiches, and Brumrik pulls out a shitty blanket for everyone to sit on. Brumrik is gross and Davric throws up in his helmet. Billy tells a story.
* Davric tells us theres airships, that apparently Brumrik knew about.
* Decision: get an airship, come back to wizards tower for the books for Davric, talk to cloud giant friend (currently in the city) and convince him to shut off the clouds, then get to Valhaven to valiantly arrive in our airship.
* CoF stealthily heads toward northlands. They run into the giant, who snorts at us.
* We wingsuit over to the castle island.
