Devilish Assassins and other Miscellany Report

General Summary

46th to the 48th day of Thuyir in the year 8089
A fight breaks out in the tavern as the adventurers face the two horned devils sent by their "mistress" to kill them. The party prevails, but a civilian is killed in the process. The barmaid/proprietress promises to cover for the party, but tells them that they must leave before the watch arrives.
The party flees into the night and slips out of town, making camp in the farmlands outside of the city. The next morning, the party decides to travel to the village of Taelno, about a half-day walk along the road toward Imperople, for they had been contacted by a child messenger of the Opal to await word of additional work in the tavern named the Obstinate Ox. Along the way, they pass an apparently wealthy humanoid with absolutely no guards or weapons visible. Odd conversation ensues, and in the process, Munnin steals his coin purse, which contained six perfectly matched diamonds worth 500 estinonii each.
Shortly after, Munnin confessed to Petal that she was pretty sure the man on the road might have been a dragon. Everyone got super nervous and NakCue and Ozymandias returned the pouch to the dragon, who revealed himself in anger. They escaped with their lives, but the party now owes a favor to an unnamed gold dragon.
Following this bit of misadventure, the party settled in at the Obstinate Ox, waiting for their contact. A "farmer" approached them and made contact, explaining that their first job for Demetrius had been a test. Now, the job was a real one - to frame a member of a rival thieves' guild - Almar Cutface, the face/fence for the Fishers, located on Thaku Island in Estinople. Pay is set at 1,000 estinonii each. The party tried to negotiate for passage to Vvathaf, but only got vague promises of "help" if they complete the job. In the end, they agreed to take the job.
