This Session

The temple of Procan is under attack from ships stationed a few hundred yards off the coast. The party flinches as they watch high arcing balls of yellow and green fire fly up from the six pirate ships and crash into the town. Within the first few volleys the wharf district is on fire as are many of the small fishing boats tied to the piers. The Temple of Procan is hit repeatedly but fails to fully ignite. The party decides to rush into town and helps form a bucket brigade to put out the fire. They struggle to get enough water onto one of the larger buildings to keep the flames from spreading but Durmen makes a critical success and inspires the townsfolsk to double their efforts. Huge volumes of water land perfectly on the center of the fire quenching it.

They move to another building and before long the wharf area fires are under control. As dawn begins to break over the smoke filled town they take a rest and the greatful townsfolk begin to pepper them with questions about their presenes in the town. They mistakenly offend the townsfolk by claiming to be "from the east" but some quick talking (crit save) convinces the townsfolk they are not pirate spys but are really just adventurers passing through.

The tension level now having dropped the townsfolk explain the pirates are running an extortion racket (pay protection money to the pirates or the sauhgin attack) and the townsfolk have refused to pay up. This attack is one of many over the past few months but they say they are getting more frequent and destructive. The pirates use some kind of water portal to move their ships instantly many leagues away and so they have never been caught.

The elder villager recalls hearing tales that the water fairey folk know how to activate the portals as well. He tells them to worship at Procans temple, and talk with Brinehanded who is reportedly friendly with with the water fairy folk. After their meeting with the townsfolk they send them off with a blessing "may the winds always be at your back".

Nail takes Abe's offer to try to some of the druid elexir he acquired. He feels weird and jelly like, Abe tells him to lay down in the horse trough out front and drink some more. He does so and ends up shape shifted into a jellyfish. (Polymorph Potion) After a 1/2 nights rest Abes wife flirts with he party as they come down for breakfast. She gives them a cheesecloth bag of fish and bread as a day rations. Realizing they are late to meet the dwarves at the mining HQ south of town, they mistakenly head north to the Temple of Procan thinking thats where they were supposed to meet the dwarves. Once there they realize they were supposed to head south and do so quickly to catch the dwarves before they leave. On the way south they meet the dwarves on their way north on the mine. Dame Yarla is in an armored wagon and stops to pick up the party. She tells them they might find more than goblins in the mines, reportedly a wight might be inhabiting the mines turning the bodies.
