It's sweet.Six days after the incident the military returns. They report that most of the Jarspar underworld population is dead. I found out that many of the rogues that survived formed their own guild(s) thinking that the leadership was dead. The Indigo Brotherhood had advance warning and left before everything came down (except us, but we were on our way out, just a little late in leaving). The remaining guilds dropped some anonymous tips and most of the Black Serpents have been picked up. Most of the goods stolen by the black serpents have not been recovered.02/13/1225A few brothers stumbled into the Indigo Light, one of them had a severed hand. One of the others, named Bruce, told us they were roughed up down at the docks. Cash told us to go take care of it.We ran down to the docks, Bruce showed us the way. I saw a group of Underfoot among others, I recognized one of the group as one of my contacts to move merchandise, but he didn't seem to be mixed up with the other group.I walked out to try to talk to the guy I know, four of the ruffians barred my way, one of them seemed to be leading a few Underfoot. He moved in, I sliced him with my kukri. Tesmian shot him in the hand, I called him a dumbass.Some other stupid jerk threw knives at me, I gutted the leader in the name of the Indigo Brotherhood. The fence took the lump of gold they were trying to sell.We found nine gold, 19 silver, a diamond necklace, a ruby ring and two scroll cases.They were trying to sell a mangled symbol of Mithras. They were some Underfoot that went independent and were following a Black Serpent, now dead.Jon came looking in on us in the morning. I filled him in with the whole story. He told me the architect (Earl) of the temple had disappeared, he had maps of the sewers which might be of interest to my organization. Also, someone had stolen stuff from the church repository recently.I went back to sleep. Pulverized some perfectly good gems for Cael when I woke up.Jon showed back up at noon, filled us in again. We are going to some Cleric's house who has maps of the sewers.Cael needed to buy some more gems or something, and then asked me to smash them up.We made it to Earl's house, talked to the maid, checked out his study. The maps were missing, an errand boy had come by to get them.We headed to the city work's department, a couple of workers there gave me the eye but I refrained from killing them. We found the charts, Jon stole them, very poorly. Took them back to the temple and checked them out. They were maps of the sewers, some of the sewers intersected the temple and the repository.We went to the repository and found a concealed door in the north east corner.Cael summoned an earth elemental, it went through the wall and opened the door. We made our way down a passage and found Earl (Architect/Engineer) dead. He was shackled to a grate that had been pried open.Tesmian fell into a trap so we had to backtrack to get him healed up and to drag Earl's body out.
