Synopsis

Pirate Cove

After a late night, the party wake up at the crack of noon and discuss their next course of action. They decide to look around for different members of Versa's old crew. The group meets with Lure, who gives the party a handful of gear she figures nobody will miss, including an Instrument of the Bards and Rian's Feather. She begs them to take them and leave to avoid trouble, to which Versa refuses.

She also provides the information of three business contacts Magpie has used recently, along with the explicit instructions to use this information to identify and avoid them, rather than pursue. Vespon, a foreman of Fethedon Mines outside of Zhork that deals in the gem and ore trade. Aura, a thieves guild-aligned fence operating in Ockburn who deals in textiles, spices, and illicit magic items. Groz, a goliath hitman operating outside of Hophis as a contact for the assassin organization the Sunthorn. Lurtak takes note of the mention of the last contact, but says nothing.

Versa and Gael tracks down Kismet at the bar, who is very drunk already. They cure her intoxication as she is overjoyed to see her best friend, Versa, alive and well again. Kismet tells them that scouting guards were aware of but unable to find the intruders - the party - last night.

Lurtak flirts with Lure a bit and asks to speak to her privately. The rest of the gutter-minded party take the bait and assume they just wanted some private time, but Lurtak actually wanted to talk to Lure about a mystery he has been chasing - who killed his former crew, The Scarlet Plunderers. Lure checks some documents and concludes that the Sunthorn, operating outside of the neighboring country of Venorin, were the likely culprits.

Magpie heads into a meeting in her office which Versa eavesdrops on. She declares that the previous Captain Vice - Versa - is still alive, which her crewmate doubts. Magpie, unamused by their lack of faith, quickly corrects their tone. The crewmate tries to disprove the theory by recalling that attempts to scry on them did not work.

Back outside, Versa wishes to break onto the ship, but Gael tries to convince her to leave before her presence is known. Versa attempts it anyway, and finds a magical barrier in her way, blocking entry. She applies a poison that catches fire when exposed to sunlight to the side of the ship and runs off.

The party gather their horses and march off for a full day of travel toward to Daith.

Conflagration and Cookies

Pine identifies the gear they received from Lure.

After half a day of travel, the party comes across burning woods, investigates, fights some magmin and a fire elemental.

Finds a granny at the very end of the scorched forest, in a clearing that seems very verdant and untouched. She offers them cookies, which all members accept and eat, though some with more hesitation than others. Each cookie evokes visceral imagery and feelings in their minds, but are otherwise unaffected. They are told they passed her test and as a reward she gives them the cookie tin, which Pine identifies as a legendary item capable of great boons and banes.

Pine invokes the tin, declaring he would like some pie. The pie, when eaten, manifested the effects of Temperance, resulting in all but one magical item (Pearl of Power) that Pine has in his possession vanish, and appear in a guarded location to the north.

The party decide to take a short rest to recuperate.
