We did, however find that there was a nearby city known as Citadel Rashemen, which Karn said had a good chance of having one of those teleporters."On the journey, we decided that our priorities should be(a)Get back home(b)Find out what this strange group is up to(c)Get our bodies back, although if the opportunity presented itself before we accomplished a and b, we'd take it."And present itself it did. We headed to a tavern to find information. There weren't a large number of outsiders in the city, apparently, so they were curious as to where we came from. Rurik told the truth. I cautioned him about that, not that it did any good. Now, I'm all for being honest, but that sort of truth gets one thought to be cursed if people believe it, and crazy if they don't. I tried to claim it was the liquor talking."'Don't mind him; he's just drunk,' I said. 'How many have you had?'"'Just this one,' he replied, pointing at a half-empty mug."Nevertheless, more careful discussion netted us a number of useful facts, namely that an old hermit named Franch had mumbled something about switching bodies some years ago and that we were now north-east of the Sea of Fallen Stars instead of north-west."Franch was a curious old fellow. He lived a very tall tower on the town's outskirts. His butler only let us in after much pleading and mention of body-switching. We climbed the long circular staircase up to the very top, and there we found a bent-over, wild-eyed old man playing a pipe organ. He insisted we listen to him play."At any rate, he said he could make a potion to switch us back, but first he needed a few ingredients: a pegasus feather, a petal from a sightless rose (a rose with transparent petals), and a Halco stone (a naturally mirror-like rock). He knew a man in Nathoud to the north who could supply the pegasus feather, but the other two were left to us."We split into three groups: Rurik and Wan went to Nathoud for a pegasus feather, Aeron and Matthias headed to Thay Mount where a book at the library said a Halco stone might be found, and Karn and myself headed for Ashenwood, where a sightless rose might be found, according to the library."</blockquote>
