Episode 2: A Feast, A Mine & A Growing Suspicion (1/18/2023)
A Feast, A Mine & A Growing Suscipcion
As our heroes entered Mirkarken at midday, they were greeted by celebration, arcane confetti, games of skill, and street food vendors– “The Feast of the King to Come”! Unfortunately, the games of skill weren’t as lucrative for Lucky as they were for Bjorn and Sankara. However, our heroes enjoyed the provisions of various food merchants including Marty the Mushroom guy– a peculiar halfling with a penchant for foraging. After rejoining the party at the conclusion of his prayers, Gallgok and the rest of the party headed into Bur Boldor. Gallogk met Stephi, the owner of The Broken Arrow who turned down his offer for service in exchange for full plate armor, but stated that she might be more available for a longer discussion after the festivities have concluded. Later that night, during the Ceremony of the King to Come, Bjorn was moved by the divine and converted to Morridinism. The following day, the party met Caldor Doragaen of the Doragaen Mining Company. Later that night, the party successfully cleared out the Doragaen Mine but discovered some clues along the way that something may have been afoot. The party found clues that the miners may have been trying to unionize due to harsh working conditions and unfair wages. Was it a mere coincidence that a goblin invasion wiped out the miners? Unlikely, given that Sankara noticed the Goblin Boss wearing a ring of the same style that Caldor Doragaen was wearing. As the session ended, the party stood victorious within the mine.
