ToA: Session 2

Conversation is it's own adventure
Last we left our heroes, they had just freed the well of the undead influence, in a battle so spectacular no doubt could be had of D-squads great skill.[citation needed] Having spent the night as guests of the Beggar Prince Apolie, and having learnt what they needed from him, they returned back to within the cities walls. Being in no rush to enter the jungle, the group decided to honor the date they had made with Ekku.

A Date With Mrs Loredump
What followed was a longwinded and heartwarming cultural exchange, where the party learned a great deal more about the local customs and spirits. Ekku meanwhile got to tinker with Bucket. During the exchange, she showed the group blueprints written in giant, hoping someone knew what they pertained. Sadly for her, no one knew anything, but Neb managed to hastily copy them without Ekku's knowledge. Later, after having parted ways with Ekku, and when Fargus wasn't busy being bored out of his mind, he managed to translate the blueprints. They were seemingly warforged blueprints, although of much cruder design then the ones used during the war. More intriguing, they seemed to predate the war by thousands of years. Perhaps House Cannith weren't the true creators of the warforged after all?

A Change of Plans
Returning to the Yellow Lake Inn, the group started to argue on where to continue their search for Mr. Cimber, and more importantly, how. There were serious doubts if heading blindly into the jungle was the best plan of attack. With a bit of guile and diplomacy, they instead managed to get a ride on a boat headed to Fort Beluarian. While not exactly one of the destinations mentioned by the beggar prince, it seemed as the safest option for a first excursion into the jungle. So come dawn, the party deposited their expensively purchased lizards with Ibnin, and set sail alongside a party from House Orion.

And here we leave D-squad, sailing peacefully up the river towards fortune and knowledge and oh shit there's a giant water snake coming right at them! Will the horrible beast sink to boat? Will Fargus die again? Find out next time, on D-squad!
