S01E03 - Fishin for Big Mouth
...or Iä! Iä! Big Mouth fhtagn!
General Summary
Shortly after returning to the Wretched Nutmeg, Soryna took leave to work on her new ballad while Jellibye pressed Toki and Kamose to examine the map she had of the old Grannoa estate. Toki was above to make sense of it, putting it at a 5 days journey from Prospect though they wouldn't commit to any timing yet.
Planning on getting starting on hunting down this 'Big Mouth', they set out after a quick meal to the Harbor Master's office where fisherman were returning from the day's work and being paid out for their weighed catches. Kamose spoke with a paid named Tray and Henley who seemed eager to get to drinking at the Nutmeg but would lend them their boat to do "2nd shift fishing" so long as the rowboat, the Telfer, came back unmolested. They mentioned also that just the day prior a man named Treff was consumed off of the docks.
Proceeding into the office, they introduced themselves as interested in hunting Big Mouth to Angelica Grisher, the Harbor Master, who was equally ready to accept that perhaps the fishermen were still drunk from the prior day and had suffered tragic accidents. Toki countered that 4 people in a week seemed like a lot of accidents to be a coincidence, and after buying some fishing equipment and replacement oars and accepting a loan of 40 lbs worth of the days catch that they could load into the Telfer as bait. She also explained that Laramie Ronen owns the large boat with the sails that was spotted in the harbor.
Splitting up, Kamose went to Tent Town to recruit Burt for this task, as he could not only swing his pan or shield, but was also an experienced carpenter. Felicia was also willing to go along as she could swing her greatsword well and could swim well enough. Toki went the general store and purchased many goods from Florian that would be useful for repairing the boat and reigning in Big Mouth. He also made an offer for the chance to examine Big Mouth first before giving it over to Ridley. Toki waffled on an explicit agreement and completed his purchase returning to the docks with the equipment and gear. After some difficult work improving the Telfer
