Crandell will tell you the ship was the *Black Ram* under Captain Erik
Himmerman. Himmerman appears to have gone down with the ship or was killed
by the Devilfish. They really are not talkative about the past as if they
were traumatized and would like to forget.

Sean smiles at Mawby. "I pick up strays." Sean thanks Mawby for his
assistance with the sailors. He'll pay Mawby the 8gp, and then give him a
small stone (worth 100gp, minus fees, of course) and asks him to run a tab
and help get them such materials, tools, etc. as they need to make a go of
it. He half jokingly suggests they make a public urinal, to use the
proceeds there from for any tanning they need to do. He'll also ask Mawby
if he's heard of any shipwrecks or expeditions to what seems to be
Goathumper's land grant, showing him the spur. "Ahearn found this along
the shore in and around where the esteemed Lord Ambroz has been given land
by virtue of his abilities at sucking, no doubt. Just wondering who the
next of kin might be, if there is anything distinctive to the spurs." Sean
is curious about Grisehild, but leaves such matters to the extended family
members. "Seriously though, I can make a career out of rescuing people
Ambroz leads to their demise." Sean then asks Mawby about a cooper. "We
are trying to set up the Cove as a place ships can set in for supplies and
repairs. Any idea where we can get a steady supply of tar or pitch? We
have a good shingle north of the settlement that would do for recaulking,
and, at the very least, with three rivers, plenty of fresh water. Anyway,
if you run across anyone looking for a place to live and work..." Sean
smiles.
Whether Sean will be ready to return to the Cove with Jethro depends on
quite a few things.
Armed with the torc, Sean heads to the Lord Mayor's residence.

Ophelia will tell Xander to be careful with the dragon. They are nastier
than people think. They often do have some good treasure, but they are
really nasty. Avoid their breath weapons. They also bite hard enough to
kill most mages with one or two bites. Ophelia can come up with a wall of
stone spell for you to copy. She will ask Wally how he is doing and will
scold him to stay away from the dragon even if his crazy master goes after
the dragon. Dragons kill. Ophelia will tell Xander how her sister was
burned to a crisp by a nasty swamp dragon about two decades ago. She was
still a young apprentice. Her dad had to tie her up so she didn't chase
after the dragon to avenge her sister's death. She finally gave up after a
week or so. She rubs her wrists like she was remembering the soreness from
the bonds.
Nickalo will tell you he thinks the cheetah spots will probably fade over
time. Be careful, Nickalo does recall hearing of one druid who got
permanently changed into a duck. He did not see the druid in question, but
one never knows, it might be true. He will tell Cara that she needs to be
more aware of what those around her think. Don't get yourself caught by
ignoring the perspectives of others. The Great Weaver holds her priests to
a higher standard. We need to be models of good behavior and try not to
offend any others. Well except those who deserve to be put down.
Nickalo seems like he has seen this happen before with young females.
Druids are less concerned about those natural type of things than many. He
will suggest to simply take the high road and apologize if you might have
offended and then move on more carefully in the future. Rufus is still
sniffing around. He seems worried.
Crandall and Eggbert will be excited about the leather shop and the offer
of lodging at Tower 8. Mawby will give Ahearn a look, like what the heck do
you have there?
He will suggest Ahearn wait for him and he will immediately address Sean.
What can I do for you? How good sir have you found a clutter of followers?
Two sailors and two dogs? Mawby will offer to take care of the two and get
them settled in Poppins' old store. He is fairly sure it is still empty. He
will suggest that he can probably take care of the title, etc. and handle
any mayorial issues for about 8 gold total. Since they are friends of
Ahearn and Holly, he will make sure they are well treated.
Sean will grab the torc from the jewelers. It is really high quality. He
thinks even Bonaluria might think it is nice.
Nancy and Sarah will promise to check in at Hagar's tower in a couple of
days once they get Lori situated.
Jethro will plan to take the Turtle and Nancy back with the requested
supplies for Fred. Anyone else want a return trip at this time?

After making port, Xander will make his way to Ophelia and bring her up to
date on what's been going on at the Cove. He'll continue with, "The group
is planning on doing some building out there for some long term buildings.
I was wondering if you know where I can get my hands on a copy of the Wall
of Stone spell. I know that I can't cast it yet, but if I have a chance to
study it, I should be able to give it a go soon. Also, we're planning on
tackling a dragon or two, do you know of any particular defenses I can come
up with to keep them from killing me in a single shot... again?"

Sean will invite Sarah to come back to the Cove if she wishes, or stay at

Sean is glad to see Matilda. "Welcome back!" he'll say, never quite
comfortable enough to simply call her Matilda, and pretty sure she wouldn't
want anything more formal.
Sean can take Crandall and Eggbert by the leatherworker's shop. He's just
uncertain as to what he needs to do to facilitate their taking up
residence. He assumes there will be some sort of licensing fee to the Lord
Mayor's office.

Lori will be guided by both Nancy and Sarah. The two men will help, but
they will be asking about this leatherworker's shop and where it

Matilda is back and will take Lori into her care with the gentleness
expected by one of Farab's devotees. Nancy will produce a list of materials
for Matilda that Pomeroy sent along for her to gather before she returns.
Sarah is a bit untethered and isn't sure where she is going to go from here
assuming Lori doesn't need her. Matilda will of course offer her a place to
stay for at least a while.

Sean's first stop is the Hospital, with Lori and whoever came along (it
was never clear, but I am pretty sure Sarah at the least did, as well as
Crandell and Eggburt, but for different reasons). Sean will bring along
all the freed captives who came along, Carandolana's dogs, and any message
for Bonaluria from Elmore. If he finds Bonaluria at the hospital, he will
greet her warmly and deliver whatever message Elmore wishes delivered. If
he sees Tina, he will ask her to come along with him.
Assuming Sarah and Lori are safely ensconced at the Hospital, and after
explaining what little he knows to Kendrick, or the highest ranking healer
at the hospital, Sean will stop at Baltisar's to pick up a certain platinum
and emerald torc. From there, Sean will drop Crandell and Eggbert (as well
as any excess gear) off at Tower 8, telling them to get comfy, and he'll
get Crandell set up with the leatherworker shop as soon as possible. He'll
greet Maude, though he does not know her that well.. After they are
dropped off, it will just be Sean, Tina and Carandolana's pack (assuming
Sean was able to find Tina in or around the Hospital). They'll head out to
the Bear Creek Circle to deliver the pups. After they are a bit outside
the walls, Sean will present Tina with the torc, and ask her is she'd like
to get married. Hopefully she says yes. Either way, he'll retain his
cheerful demeanor if he can, and deliver the pack to Carandolana. If he
received a positive response from Tina, he'll tell Carandolana and Nickalo,
and if Tina agrees, he'll ask them to be part of their marriage ceremony.
If all goes well with Tina, after breaking the news to Carandolana and
Nickalo, the couple will return to the Hospital, and ask Kendrick or
Beathan (or both) to be part of the ceremony, or at least ask them for
their blessings. Then I am sure Tina will want to talk to Bonaluria. And
Sean will want to have rings crafted. Sean will also show Kendrick the
spur that was found. If he recognizes the engraving, ok. If not, Sean
will leave Tina to Bonaluria so the womenfolk can do womenfolk stuff
regarding wedding planning, and seek Mawby, who may or may not have the
time to chat with him. If Mawby knows who might be attached to the spur,
that would be good. If not, then on the morrow (assuming it will be too
late on the arrival day) Sean will seek an audience with the Lord Mayor.
If Sean sees Mawby, he'll ask whether Mawby is aware of any potential
settlers. And a cooper.
Sean is presuming a little under a week in Aarell, with Holly arriving
earlier and beginning her training right away.
At some point, Sean will want to bring Tina to meet Glanna. He'll also
look for Alvin and Ogbert.

Cara will find Nickalo at the circle along with a bunch of bears and a

Rufus looks a bit sad when he doesn't see Holly (who I assume is with
Mawby; Fritz don't forget to respond to my questions about identify, etc).
Except for the boot, you will arrive in Aarell without incident. Let me
know where you are all going?
