One month ago, Daniel, believing his party dead, fled with the White-Elf guide back to the Shore Thing and sailed off. As time passed, however, word reached him that they were still alive and now prisoners in Slave Beach. He sailed back and spent the next 16 days performing reconnaissance.
Just before another scheduled beating session (from the Morgrin they’d encountered at the Fish & Chicks), a mysterious man meets with the party asking who else has the map to Bramwell’s Buried Treasure. He reveals himself to being an agent of the secret organization known as Bal-Rathi’s Compass: Keepers of the Legends of Arcus.
Daniel disguises himself as the physician that would heal them afterwards and reunites with his friends. Together, they bar the room before escaping into the sewer system.
After navigating the putrid tunnels and avoiding a Gelatinous Cube, they stumble across a collection of items and exit into the fresh midnight air. They climb aboard a ship, the “Rated Arrr”, and remove their prison collars just as the Morgrin arrives with soldiers and Wrecker Cats to take them down.
The Wrecker Cats are taken care of as the soldiers arm canons to skuttle the ship. A Driving Sleet from Vilis prevents one group, and a well-aimed explosive arrow from Tyra blows the others to kingdom come. Daniel use Voice of Mischief to take the Morgrin out of the fight… for now.
The “Rated Arrr” sets sail. A fire Haniel had started on the docks reaches gunpowder barrels and causes a small mushroom cloud explosion in the harbor. They sail away in the confusion with all speed to Cutthroat Crossing.
