=== Red-Headed Erik ===
; Duesday 1st Thaw
At the guild we are recruited and briefed by Erik, a tall red-headed man from Jurgenmark.
 
3 days ago, a 'civic minded murderer/thief' killed someone by the front gates of Viahold and then alerted the guards to the corpse and letters on it.
The courier had 7 letters that Lady Sigrun Jurgenmark wants investigated as they incriminate powerful families of the Western Kingdoms in War Crimes during the Jurgenmark occupation. We are to return any evidence to the King of the Western Kingdom.
 
Lord Vlad does not believe this is a disinformation campaign.
 
Margrave Henrik would also like certain jewellery if we find it.
 
Lady Sigrun is issuing us letters of authority to investigate in Henrik's name. That grants us reasonable authority to investigate in Jurgenmark and dubious authority elsewhere in the WK.
 
We need to pick up a scholar (genealogist) on the way and take her to Jurgenmark.
Dame Ysabet from Lorneholm in the hills of Central Aquila.
 
We are paid 3,000sp up front.
 
We get cheap rk 16 GE (except Wundstr who is rich), healing potions, and restoratives.
Then off to the pub.
 
=== Bandits by Stormlight ===
; W'ansday 2nd Thaw
Cassandra gives us wings.
We fly 300 miles (7 hrs) north to Chestyr, near the ruins of Zumular.
 
We land outside of town late afternoon, wait for our wings to wear off then wander into town through Eastgate.
Merryl the gate guard suggests the '''Black Lion''' as a reasonable inn.
 
We check in with Margo the proprietor and get a couple of rooms, 28 sp (4 ea).
; Th'rsday 3rd Thaw
Heading out Westgate with a packed lunch, we walk out of town then sprout shadow wings and fly.
 
Late afternoon we cross the Drosky Mountains, south of Barretskyne and find the village we want, a storm is coming from the north, a couple of buildings near the Archivist' big house on the hill are set alight as we approach.
 
About 20 bandits attacking the village, we charge in dealing lightning, geysers, fear, noxious vapours, and melee damage.
 
We question a survivor, former farm-hand turned bandit, paid by Brian from the next village (10 miles away, towards Barretskyne) 200sp each to come here and burn the Witch in her house.
They were to meet Brian at the Red Fox Tavern afterwards.
 
Reeve Giles gives us a note for Reeve Silas for the arrest of Brian.
 
=== The Sap is Mightier than the Sword ===
 
Ysabet tells us she's an entity witch who has learned five colleges. She is one of the great 7 genealogists. Three of her friends have died recently, one poisoned, one burned, and another in an accident, all in the last couple of weeks. She warned her other friends and local authorities to look into it further.
 
; Frysday 4th Thaw
We fly at 5 and arrive just before sunrise, and Reeve Silas comes with us to arrest Brian.
 
We sneak into Brian's house, and after a brave fight, we incapacitate Brian and his 4 mates who turn out to be Michaeline knights from the chapter house in [[Aladar]].
 
They had papers from Archdeacon Matthias Drachenfels to kill "Ysabet the Witch", as well as orders for 3 estates that need "cleansing".
 
Their stash in the basement had 12,000 sp, which we passed on to the men's families and the rest back to the village to help fund fire repairs. We took two dozen gold coins from Jurgenmark from 720 wk containing ~60% gold, whereas the normal ones are 20%. Worth about 4x the value due to rarity. Brian also had a magical Sword (NOM: Bleeding) and helmet (NOM: Protection).
 
The four extra knights are detained by 8 in the morning and the reeve will organise their justice.
 
After we are sorted out, we take their war horses back to the first village, and camp 5 miles out of town.
 
; Reapsday 5th Thaw
Arriving early in the morning, we advise Reeve Giles of our results. Ysabet and Petra work together to permanently put these dead (including Brian) to rest
 
; Sunday 6th Thaw
In the morning, we depart with Ysabet Northwest and arrive at about 9 in Jurgenmark.

Scribe Notes

Red-Headed Erik

Duesday 1st Thaw

At the guild we are recruited and briefed by Erik, a tall red-headed man from Jurgenmark.

3 days ago, a 'civic minded murderer/thief' killed someone by the front gates of Viahold and then alerted the guards to the corpse and letters on it. The courier had 7 letters that Lady Sigrun Jurgenmark wants investigated as they incriminate powerful families of the Western Kingdoms in War Crimes during the Jurgenmark occupation. We are to return any evidence to the King of the Western Kingdom.

Lord Vlad does not believe this is a disinformation campaign.

Margrave Henrik would also like certain jewellery if we find it.

Lady Sigrun is issuing us letters of authority to investigate in Henrik's name. That grants us reasonable authority to investigate in Jurgenmark and dubious authority elsewhere in the WK.

We need to pick up a scholar (genealogist) on the way and take her to Jurgenmark. Dame Ysabet from Lorneholm in the hills of Central Aquila.

We are paid 3,000sp up front.

We get cheap rk 16 GE (except Wundstr who is rich), healing potions, and restoratives. Then off to the pub.

Bandits by Stormlight

W'ansday 2nd Thaw

Cassandra gives us wings. We fly 300 miles (7 hrs) north to Chestyr, near the ruins of Zumular.

We land outside of town late afternoon, wait for our wings to wear off then wander into town through Eastgate. Merryl the gate guard suggests the Black Lion as a reasonable inn.

We check in with Margo the proprietor and get a couple of rooms, 28 sp (4 ea).

Th'rsday 3rd Thaw

Heading out Westgate with a packed lunch, we walk out of town then sprout shadow wings and fly.

Late afternoon we cross the Drosky Mountains, south of Barretskyne and find the village we want, a storm is coming from the north, a couple of buildings near the Archivist' big house on the hill are set alight as we approach.

About 20 bandits attacking the village, we charge in dealing lightning, geysers, fear, noxious vapours, and melee damage.

We question a survivor, former farm-hand turned bandit, paid by Brian from the next village (10 miles away, towards Barretskyne) 200sp each to come here and burn the Witch in her house. They were to meet Brian at the Red Fox Tavern afterwards.

Reeve Giles gives us a note for Reeve Silas for the arrest of Brian.

The Sap is Mightier than the Sword

Ysabet tells us she's an entity witch who has learned five colleges. She is one of the great 7 genealogists. Three of her friends have died recently, one poisoned, one burned, and another in an accident, all in the last couple of weeks. She warned her other friends and local authorities to look into it further.

Frysday 4th Thaw

We fly at 5 and arrive just before sunrise, and Reeve Silas comes with us to arrest Brian.

We sneak into Brian's house, and after a brave fight, we incapacitate Brian and his 4 mates who turn out to be Michaeline knights from the chapter house in Aladar.

They had papers from Archdeacon Matthias Drachenfels to kill "Ysabet the Witch", as well as orders for 3 estates that need "cleansing".

Their stash in the basement had 12,000 sp, which we passed on to the men's families and the rest back to the village to help fund fire repairs. We took two dozen gold coins from Jurgenmark from 720 wk containing ~60% gold, whereas the normal ones are 20%. Worth about 4x the value due to rarity. Brian also had a magical Sword (NOM: Bleeding) and helmet (NOM: Protection).

The four extra knights are detained by 8 in the morning and the reeve will organise their justice.

After we are sorted out, we take their war horses back to the first village, and camp 5 miles out of town.

Reapsday 5th Thaw

Arriving early in the morning, we advise Reeve Giles of our results. Ysabet and Petra work together to permanently put these dead (including Brian) to rest

Sunday 6th Thaw

In the morning, we depart with Ysabet Northwest and arrive at about 9 in Jurgenmark.
