Session 9
General Summary
Morning
Commander Karg, a hobgoblin commander comes in and indicates to Galt that he’s annoyed that Galt’s actions are reflecting badly on him. He refers specifically to the death of some of Galt’s competitors. Some of his troops had to intervene in a zombie outbreak related to an attack on the wardogs. He has no evidence that Galt is directly involved, but he recognizes that Galt benefits from Rolf’s death. Normally that wouldn’t matter, but the zombies killed some people that made things complicated for Karg (the wife of a local merchant.) He warned Karg to take more care in the future. Karg was accompanied by a human with a crippled arm and one eye, who scrutinized us extensively during the conversation. After Karg left, he said that was odd, as he’s never had a visit from Karg before. He thinks it is bigger than a merchant’s wife to draw that sort of reaction. Galt tells us that the maimed human was Commander Sobring. He was the prior leader of the constabulary while it was under the rule of the Shield Lands. After the town was taken by Iuz, he was punished, but Karg found him useful and freed him from the torturer. He makes use of him for his knowledge. Karg is alarmed that Sobring was brought along. We head back to the inn and discuss our plans, deciding that we should investigate the scene of the zombie attack. Dominique and I adopt low-key disguises and head there. We find two carts being loaded with bodies, which seem to be a mixture of zombies and their victims. There is blood in multiple locations, and some doors have had their buildings knocked down. The carnage of the scene seems disproportionate to the zombies that were involved. Were more undead released than the ones we were responsible for? Perhaps Karg is alarmed that the zombies that escaped were not under their control? Most of the hobgoblins seem like they’ve seen recent combat. I try to speak to a local who is watching the scene but he doesn’t trust me and slams his door in my face. We head to Catriona’s Gash (the more upper-class of brothels) to find out more information. I pay a prostitute named Sasha for her time, and make conversation. She tells me nothing, though I sense that she is afraid to speak to me. Not so much about the zombie attack, but some events related to it. I tip her extra and conclude our business. Dominique tries to bribe the madam to no success. On our way back to the inn, we are ambushed by seemingly demonic beings that are able to become incorporeal. We defeat them.
