Michael's Report, 2023-04-16
General Summary
We finished searching the lighthouse, and found a hidden room with the library of the original inhabitant. It was guarded by a flaming skull which burned most of the books, but we recovered a Wand of Banding while hiding from the cloaked guard that came from Lashan's pocket plane to investigate. We also learned that it is possible to tunnel underneath the tower's magical barrier.
We learned that a bounty has been placed on our heads, at 2000gp each or 8000gp for the full trio, and that some people in town seem to be sizing us up. Wash convinced Lothel Bonerock to run a story about the Zonthosh Guild not having the funds to pay out on such a large bounty, and persuaded him not to reveal his source. Xev hired some mercenaries to keep an eye out for him discreetly for the next three days (until 19th of reaping, inclusive).
We left off at about 7 or 8 PM on the 16th of Reaping, with Vathash having just crafted a Lesser Wand of Invisibility.
Rewards Granted
