Redbeard is able to track a wagon, as well as a single rider, southeast to the main south road.  At that point, the individual tracks become buried in sheer volume of sign from the normal wagon and animal traffic on that road.By the time all the loading is completed, it is full night, the stars are out, and the sounds of music and merriment can be heard clearly from the festival grounds, not all that far away. The group heads into town, the guards at the gate allowing them in, though a number of odd looks are given to the large iron brazier with leaping black flames coming from it.The cavalcade makes it's way to the Badger, and soon enough the wagon and horses are in the stable, and the adventurers have a chance to clean up if they wish, and settle down for an ale. Olephas deals firmly with the black flame, when asked, muttering about "abominations to nature." The brazier itself, however, is inherently magical, strongly necromantic. Eventually it is learned that the brazier can cast Animate Dead once per day, upon a body or bodies placed atop it.As the adventurers talk, a bard plays in the corner, one they haven't seen performing in the Badger before, though most of the patrons present seem familiar enough with him. His flute music is quite soothing, and the normally fairly raucous Badger is quiet.Haversham arrives soon after, and listens with great care to what the group has to report.  Finally he nods, and says, "You have done very well, beyond what I'd expected of you, to be honest. I believe your diverse mentors and supporters were correct, and you'll go far in this world.  If you would, please stay for the rest of the Festival, enjoy yourselves, and I'll discuss these matters with the Thane, and his advisors."  He pays over the 200 gp to each adventurer, and offers 3,000 gp for the brazier. "I suspect the followers of Iron Virtue might offer you a bit more, just for the honor of destroying the thing, though."</blockquote>
