Garren and Birch finished burying the dead at Birch Manor. They discovered they were being spied on by two Fire Cultists. On the cultists they found a map of Birch Manor and a list of wanted items. The Map was an old blue-print from Exacting Machinations; they made some of the traps in Birch Manor. How did the cultists acquire the Map?
They cultists were after a Ring of Elemental Command - which Birch has in his holdings.
Garren and Birch headed to Duskhollow. On the way Garren asked where did Birch find the paintings covering Garrens past life? Birch said in an old temple on the far side of Faerun. He doesn't even remember the name. But he said he would look in his journals to see if he can rediscover it.
When they got Duskhollow, Birch and Ardwyn went off to talk about rebuilding Duskhollow. Deni told Garren she found some information on the two thieves that stole Barris's Sword and Shield in the burned remains of Kelt Drumm's bakery. She found a notebook in a protected hidden area of the ruined bakery. Written in thieve's cant are their real names:
Blue-eyed Jona is Janis Scento
Sly Cassandra is Rarssa Dassan
They were apparently hired by Marlandro Gaelkur, he is a Barber in Red Larch
As Deni and Garren discussed the new information, a disturbance occurred in the cemetery. Birch, Deni and Garren went up high on some buildings and saw some kind of machine had drilled up from the ground and stopped in the cemetery grounds. They heard a door open and close a few times. As they neared the cemetery they could see smoke coming from the back of the stopped machine.
They were met with a small army of hostile black armor clad humanoids. The three hero's eliminated the first wave of strange soldiers, but they know there must be more; possibly inside the machine.....
