I think I'm gonna like it here...

by Barton Quagmire

Dear Journal,
 
The White Shirt. There's a lot to like here. Maybe even a couple of handfuls to like here...
 
Where was I? So we cleaned out the goblin lair and headed to Malo with our merchant friend. Just when I thought we were about to get some real R&R after a couple of rough days, we see a very weird looking storm over Malo and the harbor. Come to find an unguarded gate and the sound of fighting. Walls were scaled with ladders and guards nowhere to be seen.
 
So we head inside the walls toward the light out and spot some orcs. Bad news. I managed to be singularly ineffective in fighting said orcs, but managed to provide some moral support, and a Cure Wounds spell, while the rest of the party beat down the orcs. We watched as the lead orc killed the last remaining oracle of the city, Vibius (who was apparently up to no good) and I tried to keep him in sight but he got out ahead of me too quickly. The guys chased him up the spiral stairs only to lose him when he apparently JUMPED OFF THE TOP AND ONTO THE BACK OF A GIANT VULTURE! That would have been so cool if it were one of us, but no.
 
So, then, we clean up and head over to the White Shirt. Which is, as I mentioned, a place I think I am going to like, a lot. Good little performance venue with a hot little bartender named Faleria. We hit it off quite nicely. She is quite the music lover.
 
I picked up a set of Pan Pipes. Having fun getting my chops back on those. Need to get out and upgrade the armor. Took a few painful shots and would like to remedy that.
 
Ran into Jacques Pescin of the College of Lore and started getting set up to make some regular visits to hone the skills. Looking forward to that.
 
I'm digging this little town!
