Lazziar does not really bite with Sean's bragging. He sort of
nods and shrugs. Capt. Peter can bring the materials from either Raychester or
Stoddard. Cheaper from Stoddard, but it would obviously take longer. He could
bring supplies and potentially, some tradesmen, etc. If anyone asks, Dwarves
make good guardsmen, particularly for Lord Hagar. They are stubborn and
law-abiding. On Sun, Apr 23, 2023 at 12:52 PM Tim Farley

Sean will be discussing the wyrm with Glanna and Wurcon. And likely others of
her entourage. She knows treants, and it occurs to me on of them might be
useful with Ezanus's needlemen.Sean will be glad to have Hagar along when we
give Lazziar the Grand Tour. He has been subtly letting it be known just how
swiftly we defeated the lich. Well, subtle for Sean anyway. Stuff like "yeah,
we killed a storm giant, a three headed devil and a lich in less than ten
minutes combined." Because, well, we did.Definitely a drydock. For now,
smaller boat can get pulled up on the shingle and worked on after high tide.
Routine maintenance link redoing the caulking,m etc. And with Holly's
alehouse, biergarten and potential pleasure palace, crews won't mind hanging
out in the Cove while their vessels get made more seaworthy.At which point we
might need a constabulary. Because with sailors at liberty comes lawlessness.

after he pays his debts form this last adventure (Sorry the Tax man came and

out from the cove so spread word of some of the adventures based from our place
(Make it interesting) no work of our dragon issues for now other then maybe to
those that need to know of our progress. Tell the authorities operating above
me of our progress in a little more detail but yes leave out the high volume of

another pier and or dry dock.Yes, I thought we were going to try to plant a

with the gods, our cleansing habbits and see per my construtcion crew when they
can start to work on the coves work again, even if slowly. Also feel out if
any peeps are starting to pay attention to the hermit aka worship or be
freind,Magic can go as you all wish, One day I'll hope for a better spear,
armor, shield, mini catapult or other magic suitable for me. But always, if

Sean tells him of the Storm Giant attack on the Cove, the destruction of the
Miss Huston, and the death of Hackett and all the crew. He offers his
condolences, and adds that the force behind the attack, a lich named Myndur
Luzrid, was dispatched by the party, as was the storm giant. He asks him if he
has the connections that Hackett had, and if he would like to work with us.
Assuming Lord hagar concurs, of course.

mummy or a lich. He spoke and cast lightning bolts, though we believe that was
from his staff. No matter, he lasted about as long as his devil tutor Bunny.
We all had the impression that his soul was wrenched out of him when we
defeated him, which also lends support to the lich theory. He had a large
library, but it pretty much turned to dust. If we can arrange passage on this
yet unnamed ship, it will give us some time and I can take you on a tour of
what is left of his tomb. Perhaps you will have insight into some things that
we missed. I am sure we would all be particularly interested in this ability
to increase spells memorized, so long as it doesn't require selling your soul
to Bunny." Sean makes a note to mention to Xander and the rest that the magic
power of that tapestry might be nearly infinitely better than a Gate....
truly, knowledge is power. Xander could have a school of wizardry whose main
purpose is to study in the room with the tapestry. Provided there are no
correspondingly steep costs. As a quick scan of the other emails indicates
that Peter is being spoken to, all that remains is his ship name. On

an ancient legend. He would like a tour of the tombs if possible. He supposedly
had a large library and a way to increase the number of spells he could learn
in a day which made him particularly powerful. Some claim he became a lich.
Captain Peter will turn over his cargoe to Holly for 1500 gold that he is
owed. There are 96 barrells of lagar, and 48 of stout for the gnomes and
dwarves. Also 6 pipes of wine for Pomeroy and Nancy and a few more refined
gnomes. The building materials Holly needs to complete the warehouse and
tavern. Grundeak hasn't made any proclamations for a while. His new home is
starting to emerge from the hillface, but there has been no work on the tunnel
during this time, the dwarves are focusing on getting Grundeak undercover.
Who is chating with Captain Peter about a trip to Arrell? Actions. On

Firstly, this is the first I've heard of the sails.
Secondly, yes, Sean is ignoring Grundeak. He's a
bit too far out there for even Sean. But if we do talk to him, we might want
to consider telling him that we eliminated Myndur and Bunny. See if that
affects him in any way.
Thirdly, from a resources perspective, Sean is pleased that the doors
are iron. Sicarius can do more with iron.
Fourthly, I forgot that Lazziar was in town. In my head he returned. I think
we should tell him about Myndur and the tomb, and the Storm Giant, and Bunny,
but will await input from the rest of the group.
Fifthly, when we divide the loot, one third goes to Hagar for the Cove
expenses, one third goes to Elmore to purchase that crown for sacrifice to
Artor, and one third goes to Tina and Sean, to be spent so fast his head spins.
Meaning we need to kill Ezanus or go broke.

Holly will find out the doors are silver-plated over an iron frame. Trehik

cautiously. Count Lazziar will ask what
you found? Anything of particular interest?

Ahearn 606 gold (this has gone up as you are now covering
