Session 28 - Fendan Silentspirit & a Kidnapping

The Guards are warned to avoid the Manor House, and a patrol is set up to keep an eye on it. Meanwhile, Brenlazar starts suffering from his infection, the Black Smile slowly creeping across his face.

The group set about some activites to either aid the town or themselves. Boblins helps the Guards with patrols, Brenlazar gambles with a few Townsfolk to boost spirits, Gildar meets the local smith to begin work on a new weapon, Jaxxon tries to research in to the Cult and Zan aids his mother in alchemy. Brenlazar also volunteers to be the test subject for the cure, and is administered the first dose.

The next day, a nw arrival comes and joins the group. Fendan Silentspirit, a Wood Elf from the realm of Delastari swears to help the Town overcome the plague.

Brenlazar starts to feel the effects of the cure, which seems to be working. Everyone also continues their work from before. Gildar and Boblins go to investigate the Manor House, and as they approach, a giant, winged creature attacks. They run, the creature driving them away from the Manor.

Knowing their is a traitor amongst the Priests of the Church, the group invite them to dinner at Zan's house to investigate further. However, when dinnertime comes, they find the door open, and Evalia is gone! Instead, Xaphia sits at the table. She informs the group that she has taken Zan's Mother as "insurance", so her work is not disturbed. After some spiteful words, she leaves some strange clumps of rotten flesh on the table, before disapearing into a portal. The fleshy clumps begin to writhe and wriggle, before bursting forth in to strange, plagued Demons. The group is attacked!
