[QUOTE="mikeawmids1, post: 9240689, member: 7030604"] [U]The Enemy Within (Warlock!) Session 2, 11/01/2024 (part 1)[/U] [I](No Tom this week, hence Stammig's absence from the write-up.)[/I] Rain continues to fall over the Forest of Helmsby. In the aftermath of the muddy scuffle with the mutant highwaymen, the PCs begin looting the dead. Fritz claims a blunderbuss from the driver's bench of the overturned carriage. Gustaf looks inside and is surprised to find a corpse bearing an uncanny resemblance to Calvin! Were it not for the dead man's scraggly beard, the two could be twins! Gustaf searches the doppleganger and finds a bundle of documents identifying the dead man as Kastor Lieberung, the sole beneficiary of a large inheritance awaiting him in Biskerstaf! Too bad he's too dead to claim it. But wait.... Gustaf calls Calvin conspire to steal the dead man's identity and estate. Unbeknownst to the conspirators, Fritz overhears everything, but holds his tongue, for now. Adeline hears nothing, save for the thunder of approaching horses. Hurriedly, Calvin snatches the blunderbuss from Fritz, points it at the dead man's head and pulls the trigger. Blood, brains and skull fragments plaster the inside of the carriage, rendering the corpse unidentifiable. Moment's later, a patrol of mounted Road Wardens gallop into view. They had been tracking a gang of murderous mutants, and now find their work done for them. The Road Wardens secure the crash site and take statements from the survivors. Lady Isolde's version of events paints the PCs in a heroic light, particularly Calvin who (in her mind at least) fought off the mutants single-handedly. Marie glowers at the scrawny minstrel. Happy to be done with their hunt, the Road Wardens offer to escort Her Ladyship and her retinue (including the PCs) the rest of the way to Biskerstaf. Two days later, the PCs reach Biskerstaf, arriving on the first day of the Festival of Harvest Thanks. The streets are thronged with revellers and visitors from across the Kingdom. Lady Isolde takes her leave. She is staying with her uncle Friedrich Magirius, and encourages Calvin to visit her before he leaves town. She is certain her uncle will want to reward the man who selflessly hurled himself into danger to protect her from harm. As Marie looks away, Lady Isolde leans in to give Calvin a quick peck on the cheek. The PCs find lodgings and freshen up after their long journey. Adeline and Fritz go shopping, while Calvin and Gustaf make a beeline for the offices of Lock, Stock & Barrel, solicitors to the late Kastor Lieberung. [/QUOTE]
