Sorry for confusion there, too.[/sblock]It seems that luck is finally on the party's side. As Yoshiki begins skimming the first ledger, he's quickly convinced that he and Quioan hit paydirt in the priestess' quarters:The first ledger looks to chronicle every copper the temple has taken in since its founding, including --most importantly-- the details of how they got it: slave trade, drug deals, blackmail, protection schemes. It's a damning list of crimes.The second ledger covers expenditures. Names and dates of bribed city officials and guardsmen, lists of illegal goods and services. Every nasty item or person the cult of Owbej has thrown money at.The third ledger, mostly empty, concerns some sort of expedition to a town called Haatse. There are reports from priests detailing a mission to retrieve something they only call "the fragments." A final note in this tome reads as follows:[sblock=DC 15 Know: Geography or Local]Haatse is a small village in the wilds of the Landadel Baronies a few days hard riding south of Venza, on the edge of the Spoekjebosk Forest.[/sblock][sblock=DC 20 Know: History]Ekat Haatse was a mercenary and fortune seeker who came to the Landadel Baronies some 170 years ago. His travels took him all over the region around Lake Grutwetter, and he decided to settle down after several years of very profitable adventure, eventually founding the town named after him.[sblock=DC 30 Know: History]I don't think anyone has this, but if you manage it, go ahead and read <a href="http://www.enworld.org/forum/playing-game/299447-lpf-crypt-everflame-01-a-2.html#post5429009" target="_blank">this post for the full-ish history of Haatse</a>[/sblock][/sblock]The contents of the third ledger don't seem especially relevant to your current mission, though Inar might be able to use them to piece together where the absent priestess and her retinue have gone. The first two, however, seem to be exactly what he was looking for.</blockquote>
