Session 2

Heroes: Meghera, Aonar, Vaako, Sarvaas

The day after, Aonar and Vaako are awoken by a barmy trying to leave their case. They realize that the "corpse" they collected the night before wasn't dead after all. They bring him with them to the Gatehouse, where they share what information they have with Derioch Sarl, and then have him admitted in the Gatehouse.

The Heroes visit the Mortuary, where they come in contact with Toranna the Grey, the Dust(wo)man in charge of disposing those bodies without clear identity. Unfortunately, they receive bad news: a basher matching the descritpion of Eliath has been cremated a few days before, with a one way ticket to the Plane of Elemental Fire.

More investigation in the Hive reveals that the same half-elf the Heroes met a day before has been seen around the Bottle and Jug, a tavern catering mostly to fiends and criminals. When the Heroes keep asking questions, they attract the attention of several thugs, eventually leading them to the half-elf.

The Mortuary

But the spellslinger and his crew are prepared, and ambush the Heroes, putting them to sleep with their magic. When they awake, they find themselves tied up in an empty vault in the Mortuary, with four animated skeletons keeping watch. The Heroes manage to free themselves, and after destroying the undead they investigate the vault. It seems no corpses are interred there, but in one of the sarcophagi they find their equipment, and some personal effects. Among these, a journal and several documents incriminating Toranna, who is apparently aware that "not-quite-dead" barmies are being sent to the Elemental Plane of Fire.

With this information, the Heroes decide to leave the Mortuary, and find a safe kip to plan their next move.
