The Gnome and the Wizard

by K

Investigating around the town, we went into a building that contained some alchemy stuff. We found a book here called Crafting and Gathering: Alchemy, Herbalism, and Poisons. I'm currently holding on to the book but everyone else is totally allowed to check it out. There was another building black with smoke and, for some reason, Kahla and Borris went inside...Kahla collapsed but Borris was able to pull him out. After that, we decided nobody else should go in. We did end up finding a very heavy flower behind the building though. It has petals like flames and a yellow center. Sadly, it was not listed in our new book so I have no idea what this is.
 
There was also a general store that we went inside. In the back room, Sam found a lot of ice and three dead bodies...not great. There was also a weird symbol on the ground with a copper ball in the center. I have no idea what any of this means but it does not look good. I noticed Sam put roses on each of the dead bodies which was a sweet and kind gesture. Cordelia sent out her magical servant guy who ended up finding a photo (what an odd thing this photo). The back of the photo has a name, Eras Phophior. Turns out Borris recognizes the wizard in the photo. He also recognizes the dress of one of the family members in the photo and the flower as well...is the wizard the flower? Borris decided to share that he started as a non-living gnome and the wizard brought him to life...WHAT.
 
Back on our ship, we put the flower inside the furnace and noticed that was THRIVING. It grew roots and bloomed a second flower over night. We also woke up to a thundering boom and then Noelani started arguing with her bird...I think I'll stay out of their issues.
