09 - There And Back Again
General Summary
9th, The Melting EC
The Fiends visited Erchyll and instructed them to cut Molinth Ketrinn with an infernal dagger.
10th, The Melting EC
Erchyll visited Molinth at his workshop near the Custodian's office. Molinth told Erchyll that he thought the Custodian's plans to open the mysterious orb were not completely rational and perhaps even dangerous.
Molinth proposed taking the Forgotten Crystals intended to power the ritual and exposing them to an excess of power, resulting in The Orb being destroyed rather than activated and averting any dangerous consequences.
Erchyll sliced Molinth with the infernal dagger and he was possessed by a devil.
'Molinth' then decided to go along with The Custodian's plans.

Judge and Watcher encountered Sindril Helviarn, who was carrying a barrel of black powder towards The Kren'Sar, with the intention of using the explosive to destroy Askursund. She said that she would store the barrel in her quarters and asked Judge and Watcher to not tell the Captain about it, since it could be dangerous cargo for the Kren'Sar to carry.
Both Judge and Watcher agreed to this, and Judge sent Pitho to 'help' her transport the barrel to the ship.

11th, The Melting EC
At the request of the Custodian, the Kren'Sar departed Lirimidium to collect New Leaf from Chittering Elva. New Leaf was to use Watcher's Observatory to gather information to complete Elva's research on the Wandering Star.
As the crew entered Elva's Grotto, Erchyll destroyed the almost complete Skeleton that had been forming near the Amulet attached to New Leaf's wrist.
Elva commented that The Custodian had been acting differently and wasn't sharing his plans with her.
The crew agreed to take New Leaf to Lirimidium to continue Elva's research. With this information, Elva will be able to predict when and where the Wandering Star will land.
The Kren'Sar returned to Lirimidium, with New Leaf on board.

12th, The Melting EC
The Drake had returned to Lirimidium during the Kren'Sar's absence. The Drake had been successful in its mission, bringing a large number of Forgotten Crystals from Belshoy. The Drake also had some interesting passengers - representatives of the Queen of Felmethas, who wanted to speak with the Custodian about securing support in Felmethas' war of independance against The Enclave of the North.
These representatvies were a Faun named Urania, the devil Moxiloth, and sorceress named Narim.
Three Song paid Mitch for losing the bet, but did not seem very upset, instead pleased with his new connections to Felmethian Royalty.
New Leaf was taken to the Observatory to begin recording her findings. She would need at least one day and night.
Mitch hired Grommik Stonehearth to be the Kren'Sar's cook, along with a skeletal assisstant.
The perseptive crew member named Jimmy was brought up at some point, but I don't remember the context.
The crew returned to The Ashen Lady to kill some time. While there, they encountered Urania and Moxiloth who told the crew about their experience with the Ashen Lady herself, who in life was known as Xyrrel Yelfaren.
After some time, Mitch and Watcher left The Lady to check in on New Leaf's progress. On their way Mitch noticed Dosquebron, the owner of the Art Gallery in Lirimidium (who Mitch previously sold a number of Alavara Evendew's paintings to), entering a narrow alley that lead to an iron door in the side of the steppe of the city. Following them, the crew found the door locked with a padlock, that Watcher was able to break off. Mitch and Watcher entered the door, and began to descend in to the depths of the city...
