Session 1: Clorough fires investigation

General Summary

The party started in the Inn in Clorough, having just grouped up as all party members have read the help wanted poster concerning the serial arson issue. The party visited the church and later visited the site of the latest burned hosue. They discovered an unfinished yet used shrine to Api and after the priest visited such a site again they confirmed this was the means to burning the houses. They questioned some kids who rarely visit the chuch and took note of the one worshipping Api. After which they ended the day at the Inn.
The next day they visited the other burn sites and noticed them being spied on. Tato gave chase to the spy, eventually catching up to and catching them. The spy was one of the kids which made a town's guard unhappy with Tato as he was threatening a child. The kid told the party he was spying on them as they accused his friend, and later lied he was also worried one of the party members was the arson trying to cover for themselves. Worried that his family would be a target since they go to church often. After this the party talked with the nobleman representative to get the guards aware of their endeavor and went for a long rest to wake up in the evening and stand guard in the Longsquare district, despite the next fire only happening the next day.

Missed clues:

• The order of the burned houses on the map forms a half-circle.
• All burned down houses are the same shape.
• The kid they caught knew who went to church often despite never going himself.
• The kid admiring Api freely told about his devotion, if he was guilty he would've stayed quiet.
