Since I can't seem to catch Sir King off guard to snag his purse, I guess I'll follow the odd fellow around. We met up with a few of his other friends, a drinking buddy Aurum (who's sparkly... but not treasure), and Falune (who's feather, but definitely NOT a parrot).
Sir King, Aurum, Falune and I found ourselves a new prospect for some treasure! Some very poor guy sent us on an adventure. He didn't seem to have anything of worth. Plus, he seemed to be hanging around with the law. I gotta lay low while here in Phlan. This Doom guy is a bit of a drag, but talked of some Yip guy whose gone mad. We're going to check him out and see if he really is mad.
So, it turns out he is mad. Also, no one would let me dangle him out the window to be extra sure, nor could we convince Falune to drop him from the sky. Alas, though, he seems genuine. Talks of some Dracolich and a ghost ship. Personally, I'm not interested in coming face to face with a Dracolich, but a ghost ship might have treasure! Would it be ghostly treasure though? Maybe I can pawn that for more... The law person didn't appreciate me asking if we could help move any treasure or artifacts out of the city. Oh, something is coming towards Phlan to burn it down and kill everyone apparently.
Before getting food for the night I'm going to check this place out...
They're just as poor as Doom... I thought there was money in religion, where are the artifacts!
The Doom guy and hisfa reiiends hash some goooood mead. Falune lefs a cuke on Sirkin! Sir King keeps cactshin me tryna steal his pursh.
You should have seen Sir King's face waking up to that cuke!
The doom monks gave us horses and food. Falune's flying, though, even though there's a storm coming. Doesn't like riding horses, she says. I'm leaving without treasure, this is most disappointing.
Some folk broke down ont he side of the road. Sounded like they were sharpening weapons. I'm going to keep my distance, I don't think they have anything too interesting that isn't pointy and pointing in our direction. They said something about a grumpy faerie island, and more about that dracolich. We're going to leave them broken down on the side of the road, I think it's better that way.
Sir King got DESTROYED by that wolf! I got a nice hit in, before it took off though. Sadly, I didn't kill it. No pelt to sell. It had some pups too, that may have fetched a pretty penny. Sadly, they also ran off. Falune managed to rescue Sir King, who seems embarrassed about it more than anything. Also disappointed he couldn't get a pup either.
So, apparently it was a Ferry, but he is grumpy, not the island. Also seems to be poor besides the gold that Sir King gave him. I think I'll get that back later. This island is weird. They have a Yip guy here too and want us to take him away.
Some girl lead us around the island. Stopped at a smoke house. Since the smoker was going and no one was around, I snagged myself some fish for later. When the smoke house tender showed up, Sir King bought some fish for 2 copper a piece. Apparently no one really has money themselves here, they pool together their money to buy supplies. Where do they keep it?
The crones, 3 women who lead this place, are trying to kill us. I'm certain of it. Don't drink the water!
This Yip guy is a fraud. I sensed it immediately, and that he was hiding something. Turns out it was some poison shrooms and a book. He tried to get away, but my steel bearings helped his face meet the ground! Then we hog tied him! I wanted to kill him, but the people here give me the creeps, so instead I think we're just going to leave him tied up. Farune says the book we found has a map. The not-yip guy is actually a pirate, and they've been searching for treasure and are ransacking this place next in search of it. They won't find it, since I'll steal it first!
Ok, so we found this cave. It had treasure, that I of course stole! Then things got weird, and flames shot out of candles. Sir King took some books and we ran out. Some creepy blob thing attacked us, but we dispatched it. Aurum says we pissed off the dragone queen. That looks weird, but he said it's spelled with an e at the end. I think he's illiterate. We haven't had time to read the book we stole, but some of the treasure was a pact.
