They hope to go unnoticed while in town. * When heading to check with the [[Salty Youth]], [[Damrakas]] sees [[Captain Gart Thunderbrow]] trying to clear out the place with other officers. [[Damrakas]] negotiates for them to leave peacefully. * He learns from the captain that rumors are spreading about the [[Scavenger's League of Fortuna|League]] and their presence in [[Brine Rapids]]. [[Lord Bartolomeu Salgado]] has been spreading doubts about them with the [[Brine Rapids Gazette]]. * [[Captain Gart Thunderbrow]] assures that [[Lord Bartolomeu Salgado]] doesn't have ill intent and that this is probably a way to get himself elected for mayor the next term. The heads of the city guilds usually rotate in the mayor position. * The party gets the impression that [[Captain Gart Thunderbrow]] is interested in not stepping on the foot of anyone in power. * [[Damrakas]] takes the [[Salty Youth]] to [[The Wise Rat]] and pays for their temporary stay. * The party spends time in [[Brine Rapids]] to find more information about [[Baron Uthrak]]. * They identify that [[Baron Johnas Uthrak de Diamantine]] co-owned [[Burnock Mill]] along with a [[Gunter Weiss]]. They also locate a manor property of [[Gunter Weiss]] north of [[Goodwheat]]. ## 16th of [[Germtide, 1049|Germtide]] ([[⛅ Overcast]]) * They take the cart and head in search of the manor of [[Gunter Weiss]]. * The party stops at night in [[Goldthread]]. They thread the streets carefully and rest at the [[Stomping Guardian Inn]]. * The smoke-filled environment with racist and bad-taste paintings make them uncomfortable. ## 17th of [[Germtide, 1049|Germtide]] ([[⛅ Overcast]]) * The journey continues as they leave [[Goldthread]] as soon as possible. * They stop on the road just north of [[Goodwheat]] and use the opportunity to forage, map the surroundings, and explore for the manor. * They identify odd bipedal footsteps with webbed feet and the direction the might've come from. * They also see an abandoned manor in the distance. Storm clouds seem to approach. They see candlelight through the barred windows. * They head to the manor. A storm surrounds them as they get closer. Lightning falls nearby. * They leave the cart in an abandoned half-fallen house at the base of the hill and head to the house. * [[Joppyr]] tries to use a spell to locate [[Tryk]]'s hat, but doesn't feel its presence. * The door seems open. Some enter. They feel a bad presence in the house. * [[Drakus Thunderheart]] stays outside for a moment appreciating the weather, but eventually enters. * They see a painting over the fireplace. In the picture is an old man and a small woman on the porch of the manor. Slaves work the fields in the background. * The ghost of [[Gunter Weiss]] jumps out the the picture and welcomes them to his [[Harrow Hill Manor]]. >[!recite|] Gunter: >Ha! Welcome to my home, mortals! I have need of a mortal life, and you shall give me one. >You are my prisoners now. Give me the life of one, and the others are free to leave. Otherwise, I shall claim you all on the stroke of midnight. Enjoy your stay in my humble house. %% #UpdateRumors %% # Rumors ![[Mysterious Footprints#^rumor]] %%END%%
