Playing Catch-Up

I went though 46 pages of this thread to figure out where we were prior to the Veiled Society compound sequence. Below is my attempt to get everyone up to speed.

The group recalls the following (this was all revealed in the prior 24 hours - if you can believe it!)
You all met up at the
Hog's Breath Inn in the Upswallow District of Specularum. There, you ran into two or three important characters. The first was
Raef Boloum, the half-elven proprietor of a bookstore located adjacent to the tavern. The second was
Captain Rex, the former captain of the
Dastard. He knew Rory Barbarossa and gave you some information about Barbarossa's ship of employ, the
Lussiter. Finally, you met the gnome,
Flerrian Kagel, who seemed nuts, but whom you found out later was also a member of the
Lussiter's crew.
Raef Boloum told you that someone from the Veiled Society, whom you found out later was
Vas-Hathath, was asking questions about a map of the Isle of Dread. Rory can confirm that it was this Vas-Hathath who had him captured and taken to the compound. In the sewers, you met up with the dwarves Rake Stormstone and Grunder Spikeshorn, who told you that they had been sent to find a peculiar clay jar painted orange and black.
Inside this jar, Barbarossa had supposedly
painted the map to the Isle of Dread.
You know the following about the crew of the
Lussiter. The captain was
Max Roundbottom and Barbarossa was his navigator. The gnome, Flerrian Kagel, had some unspecified role on the ship. This ship traveled to the Isle of Dread but never landed there. Barbarossa made his map while the ship circumnavigated the island.
You still have the opportunity to meet Captain Rex at
Shanty's End, a seaside establishment where the heroes should be free of the Veiled Society. Captain Rex supposedly had more information about Barbarossa and the Isle of Dread. Also, he was expecting the heroes to help him find Nell, his former first mate, whom he had "lost" to Captain Roundbottom in some game of chance.
