* Planning to sell

The group will email Andy a list of things they’re selling.  He’ll figure out how much it’s worth, and let us know.

 We’re back at the party at House Lyrander.

 – A wizard, Rand Roole, comes up to Coriell, and tells him that he thought that his clan, Sunburst, disappeared 2000 years ago.  He brings up Coriell’s sister’s name, she had left home to go to Xendrik.  Coriell tells him that he’s a descendant of the Sunburst line.  Coriell explains ASYLM, and that he remembers the time of horrors.  Professor Roole wants to meet with him later.  He tells Coriell more about the Blood of Vol.  They discuss the curse of the Blood of Vol without Coriell mentioning that he’s been cursed.

 – Daenerys is approached by Habra Tergaren.  Daenerys has the same last name.  She asks why he chose that last name.  He tells her that he has a dragon mark.  She asks if he claims to be a member of the House Tergaren.  Daenerys puts her off, and says that he’s from the hills, and is a distant cousin, come to visit.  She tells him that there are names that are more noble and with more power right now, and she doesn’t understand why he would choose it.  She goes away unhappy.

 – Aerdane is there, and happy to see us.  He asks Daenerys to dance and she turns him down.  He offers to give us a ride home in his sky coach.  The lift is for commoners.  He tells Daenerys that just because she has the dragonmark of house Orion, she doesn’t have to join that house.  There’s a feud between houses Lyrander and Orion.  Aerdane gives us all a ride home, except Daenerys, who chooses to walk.

 – We go back to the gatehouse to get our weapons.  As Daenerys is leaving she sees someone is an obvious bunchy cloak following the rest of the group.  We also notice that we’re being followed, and have been since we left the party.  We don’t notice Daenerys in the shadows.  We step into the skycoach – it looks like a gondolier.  It’s easy for wizards to create flying things because Sharn sits in a manifest zone of the elemental plane of air.  The skycoach only works in Sharn.  We pull into the flow of traffic, and we notice that the person shadowing us gets a one-person crystalline disk, a soar sled, and begins to follow us. Daenerys gets a lift, and begins following us, and our shadow.  We tell Aerdane that we’re being followed.  He’s surprised, and just as he reacts, a sky coach smashes into us with six passengers aboard.  Four of the passengers are armed with shields and flails, and are wearing the same insignia.  Dressed in green.  Two passengers leap on board and rush Coriell.  The fight is on!  As we fight, Aerdane says “Emerald claw scum die!”  We defeat two monks and four soldiers of the Emerald Claw.  They are a military group tangentially tied to the Blood of Vol.  Once the Blood of Vol was no longer the official religion of Karnath, the Emerald claw were outlawed.  However, they did not disband.  Aerdane took us back to the inn, The Ten Bells, in the neighborhood of the Dancing Shadows.  The skiff the Emerald claw were on was probably stolen.  We now how a skiff.

 – As we approach the Dancing Shadows, we see a fire burning.  The Ten Bells is burning.  Coriell’s dog and our armor and weapons are in the inn.  We run towards The Ten Bells .  The fire is under control, but the innkeeper has been beaten.  There’s a man there waiting to talk to us – Johann Ironfoundersson.  He’s the captain of the guard that we met in the refugee camp. The captain talks to us – some men came looking for us.  They ransacked our room.  Kyle comes running up with Ellendil – Kyle grabbed all our things and ran out the back door with Ellendil.

 – Rafad goes to talk to our shadow. Rafad gets closer to our shadow, and he’s wearing a robe and a pointy hat.  Coriell recognizes him – he was the assistant to one of the wizards that was examining Coriell and the curse of the Blood of Vol.  The assistant’s name is Laren.  Rafad brings him to the captain.  Laren breaks down – he’s been told to follow Coriell as part of his graduate studies.  He’s from Moregrave university.  He’s supposed to follow Coriell and take notes on his demise.

 – We go to Clifftop – an adventurer’s quarter.  There’s a rivalry between Clifftop and Death’s Gate – two different adventurer’s guilds.  The Captain tells us we can find him in Black Arch at the guard house.  We find an inn called Eleven Bells, where they rent us rooms for 60GP for the night.  There were three featherfall tokens on the monks.  We looted their bodies.  The neighborhood of Clifftop is in Upper Dura.  Dura in general is the worst of the five quarters, but Upper Dura is the best part of Dura.

 – The next morning we wake up and come down the common room, and see Victor Saint Demain and Captain Pardesh.  There’s a fascinating new profession in this city called “the Inquisitor”, who finds things out.  Victor says “I will bet you two hundred gold pieces that I find the shrine to the Blood of Vol in Sharn before you do”.  Coriell takes the bet.

 – Before we go to Lower Dura, we need to talk to the Captain, and go shopping.  There are shops in the adventurer’s quarters.  Mithril Blade sells weapons.  I buy a potion of cure serious wounds.

 – We spend a couple of days shopping.  We keep being approached by wizards from the university, and scribes.  The people of ASYLM are of interest, due to the refugees’ stories of fighting dragons and so on.

 – Daenerys goes to talk to the House Orion.  They’re happy to see him, and his dragon mark.  They start him on the process to get him as part of the House.  It will take a couple of weeks.

 – A copy of the Sharn Inquisitive comes out.  In the newspaper, there is a number of articles about us.  Veer wrote the articles.  The main gist is that we are braggarts of dubious origins, who claim to have fought dragons, and come from a mythical city that’s thousands of years old.  One of the politicians is denouncing everyone from Asylm, and is saying that we are Cyrians posing as Asylm refugees.  Anyone who says they are from Asylm is a traitor or war criminal, sneaking into Asylm.

 – This is our third week in Sharn.

 – In five days, Sharn celebrates CrystalFall – in memory of when the crystal tower was destroyed.  People create beautiful works of crystal and push them into the river.

– Coriell gets a visit from a wizard who talks to him about sponsoring some of his research into the Sunburst clan.  If he had more founding, in the form of a grant, he could continue his research.  Coriell wants to see his research.  He has a good geneaology of the Sunburst family.  After Coriell’s sister went to Xendrik, there’s little information.  He wants to go to Xendrik. 

– My parents visit – it’s the 4^th of Olarune.  They want to open a pub in Lower Menelith tower, near the university.  The neighborhood is a little shady and bawdy, but a good opportunity.  I give my parents 500 GP to open a pub called Latta’s Hearth.

– Rafad pays 500 GP to set up a den or rogues and thieves.  His own little guild.  Level One rogues.

– The day before CrystalFall, we’re at the Eleven Bells, and Lord Malacoda comes in, by himself.  LM heard about our reception at House Lyrander.  A number of people from Asylm have been getting bad names in the paper.  People in Highwall are getting a bad shake.  LM wants donates to the Asylm refugees fund.  I give LM 250 GP. 

– We go talk to Captain Ironfoundersson.  The Emerald Claw thugs have been sentenced to hard labor.  The Captain questioned them, but didn’t get much information.  Based on their accents, they seem to have come from Karnath recently.  No word on how they were working with, for, or where they were staying in the city.  They’ll be doing hard time for 3d6 years.
