A small monkey wearing a fez

  • After Klark is killed, the party investigates the various crates which contain food & weapons. Tremen begins moving the supplies to our cart outside.
  • I tend to the monkey who seems excited and willingly takes food from me. I than open the cage to allow it its freedom, as soon as I open the gage it bounces onto my shoulder before heading off behind a carte on the far side. I follow and discover it digging and recovering a fez which it proceeds to put on its head.
  • Silanne tends to the Wolves and starts organising the release of the pack outside in the woods. Silanne senses something that aligns to appreciation / thanks, as the wolves cautiously.
  • A discussion takes place about what to do about the dam and it is decided that it should be destroyed, so a plan is agreed upon using rope tied to the key wedges which we will pull once we have safely exited the cave. Tremen checks that the cart is on high ground the likely direction of flow of the released water from the dam.
  • Bluebell attempts to communicate and befriend the monkey and find out any information about previous owner or where he came from. The monkey informs Bluebell his name is Fortenbrass.
  • Dwarf Grundrem who gave us the initial quest is Fortenbrass friend.
  • The Party then sets off back to the village & returns the supplies to the town general store, the villagers cheer the party on our return appreciating the return of their supplies. Tremen attends to the administration tasks and chasing payment from the town clerk for completion of tasks. He also confirms free room & board plus meals at the inn, which the party are great full.
  • Silanne after resting informs the party they will be discreetly watching the Sleeping Giant and heads off. Everything seems quiet, people come and go during the evening. Later, Silanne explores the trail & walls to the right taken by some of the exiting patrons from the Sleeping giant, & notices the trail appears to get busier later in the evening.
  • The following morning around 6 the party starts to assemble & take breakfast as it is served, Cromagon takes a stroll in the town after breakfast.
  • Sildar (rescued from the dungeon) joins the party at the tavern and coveys his thanks for his rescue. He mentions to Tremen a map of the mine that Grundem & his brother had discovered, and it was the map the goblins were after. Sildar mentions the Redbrams & perhaps they are involved in stealing the map.
  • Tremen notices that Silanne isn’’t around and suggest it might be an idea to gather the party, so myself & Crom take a stroll, doing a loop but nothing is observed about Silanne’s whereabouts. Bluebell joins myself & Crom as we do loop to the south, but again we see no signs of Silanne.
  • Silanne eventually turns up at the inn a bit later, and a discussion takes place about dealing with the Redbrams. Silanne relays their last night observations. Tremen is reluctant to confront the Redbrams, without any further evidence, and then proceeds to talk to the town clerk to see what his position is on the goings on of the Redbrams & the sleeping giant.
