Endings and Beginnings

19 April 2007-

This week involved the end of the first part of the Freeport trilogy (modified to reduce serious munchkinization on the part of the original authors) and the beginning of part two. Given that, there was mostly an orgiastic spree of spending, as our heroes liquidated the loot from the underground temple and did a little R&R. It was also a parting of ways with Kevin's mage, which we hope will be temporary, since Kevin has not been able to join us in person for some time. In our plotline, his mage has been sent with the most interesting of the thaumaturgical loot back to the larger, regional guildhall on the mainland, while the rest of us continue the investigation into the problem posed by illusion-disguised reptile men trying to summon nasty extraplanar beings in town (surely violating half a dozen local ordinances in the process).

When it appeared that our newly-filled purses were again mostly empty, we resumed caring about the locals- and just in time, because our librarian friend Egil was back to see us, telling of a nocturnal break-in at his friend Lucius's house. Between Lucius's initial kidnapping, the ransacking of his house by the cultists, our ransacking of his house looking for clues to help find the cultists, and now this, we're thinking he may as well just leave the front door open and hang out a sign reading "Please Serve Yourself".
