They were disturbed by yet another knock on their door. This time it was one of the train staff delivering an invitation from Elanor Yanette. The invitation requested their presence at the Nalaam arena later that evening. The constables planned to attend, as this will likely be their last chance to rescue Elanor’s prisoner. As the train approached Nalaam, Rai experienced a wave of pain as his affinity for elemental air was suppressed. The constables were unsure what exactly caused it. Could Luc be using his mysterious lantern again or could unforeseen troubles await them in Nalaam? The constables had scant time to worry as they got off the train. A dozen watchmages waited on the station platform. The mages immediately moved to take Olivert, Irony, and Kirk in for questioning. Olivert attempted to resist and was quickly subdued. They were taken to a secure building where the mages used rituals to confirm that Olivert was the murderer and released Irony and Kirk to go about their business in the city. The mages plan to ship Olivert back to Trekhom to face justice, as he hasn’t committed a crime in Nalaam. [gm]The players really latched on to catching the murderer. I didn’t make any combat encounter out of this. I figured that if the watchmages could pose a threat to the party, they could certainly handle Olivert. I’m not sure what I’ll do with his possessed gun yet. I may have it resurface later.[/gm] The constables regrouped and hurried to rendezvous with Damata for his confrontation with the Family. Damata gave them each special totems passed down by his tribe to grant them strength in the coming battle. The group then wended its way into a seedier side of Nalaam ending near a sleazy pub called Holes. Two enforcers escorted the group into a cave where a foul-mouthed thug named Sylvester waited. The thug demanded that the constables show him the magic items Damata was supposed to pay off the debt with. Kirk complied by promptly stabbing one of the enforcers near him. The cave rang with the sound of gunfire as the Family thugs closed in and the constables formed a protective wall in front of Damata. The Family thugs were quickly overpowered, and the group fled the scene before any city guards could arrive. Now the constables must hurry across the city to reach the infamous Nalaam arena and possibly their last chance to rescue the slave Isobel Travers.</blockquote>
