06 - The Wager
General Summary
Watcher explored the observatory, finding some details about his re-activation. Apparently Professor Branqo installed some power limiting device with Watcher to prevent him from activating his original power core.
Sindril visited Watcher to ask for his support in in convincing the Captain to return to Askursund.
Erchyll returned to The Kren'Sar to decorate their cabin.
Judgement got lost wandering the city, eventually winding up at The Ashen Lady where he had a brief encounter with Three Song of The Drake. He also bought a Tezcan Lute (purple wood with gold and green inlay, blue strings) for Pitho Bil.
Mitch, after inspecting the new Hypogryph, received a message from The Custodian. Speaking with him, he offered the Kren'Sar one of two jobs:
Fly to Ivamis and retrieve a book titled 'Endral Entanglement' and recruit a wizard named Molinth.
Or,
Escort Lirimidium's financial negotiator to Belshoy where he would secure a loan of some kind of cargo, which the Kren'Sar would then transport back.
Whichever job Mitch didn't choose would be handed to The Drake. Mitch opted to travel to Ivamis.
Back at the Kren'Sar, Three Song visited to place a bet with Mitch. Whoever could complete their mission and return to Lirimidium first would give the other 5000 gold. They would both leave at dawn. The crew of the Kren'Sar accepted this challenge.
The Kren'Sar departed the next morning. While crossing the Hallow Spine Desert the crew came across what looked like a Din'Rael caravan. As the ship drew closer a massive harpoon was fired from within a large wagon. The first missed but the second caused damage to the front balloon of the Kren'Sar. In retaliation, Erchyll sent their raven to attack a vulture that was fleeing the scene. The raven killed the vulture, and the humanoid figure it turned in to. The crew left the body in the desert.
The next day, the Kren'Sar arrived at Ivamis. The crew checked at the The Great Library for Endral Entanglement and were told that the book would be ready for them to collect tomorrow morning. The book can be loaned for 10 days, after which there is a charge of 1 gold per day. Failure to return the book would result in the library taking action to recover it. Judge left a drop of blood with the librarian as insurance (and demanded a drop of the librarians blood in return).
After leaving the library the crew met Alavara Evendew, who invited them for dinner at the Evendew estate that evening.
