Okay, so after some stars finally aligned, my Pathfinder group got back together so we might resume playing the campaign we started last time. Only instead of on a Sunday, we played on a Tuesday, and instead of dinner, we had brunch, which consisted of turkey bacon, fresh fruit in the form of strawberries and cherries, cinnamon swirl bread which my sister made, and some scone like thing I cannot for the life of me remember the name of.
In game, a week has passed since the heroes became what the villagers of Sandpoint are calling the Saviors of Swallowtail. As such, they are now being sought out by the villagers for all manner of ails and ailments. First, the noble Aldern Foxglove decided to thank the adventurers by buying them horses and taking them out on a boar hunt. But as they were eating the boar meat in celebration later that night, a woman named Amele came into the Rusty Dragon seeking their help. Since the festival, her son has been complaining about a monster in his closet. Her husband had boxed his ears and told him to quit being fanciful, but then last night the family's dog petal was found dead. Then she showed the group the bite marks on her sons arms. The heroes heeded her call and went with her to her home to find her husband dead, his face chewed off by the goblin who had gone feral living beneath the floorboards in the boy's closet. Our heroes killed the goblin in no time flat. The sheriff arrived to console the hysterical Amele. The next morning he invited them to attend a meeting that was occurring at town hall. There Sheriff hemlock declared he was going to Magnimar to recruit some new guards for Sandpoint, and introduced them to both the Mayor, Kendra Deverin, and the Shaelu Andosana, a notorious goblin hunter who helped the sheriff patrol the nearby areas for the beasts. After agreeing to stick around town while the sheriff is gone, the adventurers were next plied by a Halfling women whose master, Ameiko, had not been around that morning. Her Halfling servant found a note from Ameiko's brother, Tsuto, which entreated her to meet him at the glassworks after midnight. The adventurers decided to assist the poor woman by starting the search for Ameiko by investigating the glassworks.
There they found Tsuto, in the company of several goblins, and from his journal pages it was revealed that he was instrumental in organizing the raid which took place on Sandpoint the night of the Swallowtail festival. In addition to his heinous crimes of conspiracy against the town, his father is found encased in runny sheets of glass, punishment for his father's infidelity which slowly drove Tstuo to madness, at war with his very being. After freeing Ameiko, the adventurers find a tunnel which looks bricked up, but appears to lead deeper into the earth. These tunnels underneath the glassworks are known as the catacombs of wrath, and will be explored next time by our intrepid adventurers. Stay tuned!
