"But I'm a Professional"

Chapter 1: Skinsaw Murder - Part 1: Festival And Fire

Swallowtail Festival

Haneet

Glinvizz: Another year, another festival. I swear, losing my hearing is feeling more and more like a blessing. At least this year looks like things may be taking a turn for the better in Sandpoint.; I'm not usually one for games, but this year does have a feeling of being a little different. My book drive has fallen upon deaf ears (oh, irony), so I guess trying some of the fun that the others were having couldn't hurt.; I'm don't care for physical engagements, but this year there were a few events that are established that caught my fancy. The trivia contest was a nice change of pace. I even won myself a new quill and some sheets of paper. There was also a crafting contest. I quickly penned a story that won 1st place, as per usual. Following the path of most of the masters that participate, I decline my prize and let it go to the next deserving person. I also felt like doing the horsemanship contest. Well, not for myself, but this young mage that reminded me of what I was like in my early youth. I was able to talk the horse into giving him a hand with winning the contest to woo a young lady. Imagine my bewilderment when I saw that man muck everything up and ended up having an intimate encounter with a tree.; There was also some free food and drink, of which I'm not one to shy away from. A lot of people couldn't stomach the hagfish brew, but I found it pretty acceptable. There was also a fine curry; a perfect mix of complex and simple indescribably rolled into one.; Overall, this has been a pretty exhausting day and I can't wait to head to bed.

Template:Isra'a: This festival was a perfect opportunity – everyone’s attention elsewhere. Pay no attention to a fellow festival attendee bumping you as they go past, you won’t notice your purse until later. The constable is out and I know he is? Fantastic… a perfect time to help myself to some trinkets, a fool and their money are soon parted after-all.; Foolishly, I allowed myself to get swept up in the revelries – I am not usually so careless. Maybe I’m going soft, or maybe I just wanted to show off - show off I did. Attention wanted or otherwise, is never good – I know better. Then again, it doesn’t much matter if they know I am coming. It never has.

Goblins in the Streets!

Haneet
Glinvizz: My bed will have to wait. Everyone is in a panicked state and I can smell a bit of smoke in the distance. It didn't take long for the perpetrators to come out, though; goblins. As I've read, they have an affinity for fire and were using it to their advantage. Most of the people around me seemed like capable fighters, so I left myself to taking care of the fires as much as possible. There was a bit of a scuffle when they got near the church, but I got pretty lucky and was able to hold them back.; Once these goblins were taken care of, I was once again taken by surprise as everyone was rushing toward the gates. Here, we found a goblin on the back of a goblin dog as well as three other goblins with huge swords harassing some noble and his dog. Once all was said and done, we were at least able to save the noble and drive off the goblin on dogback.

Aftermath

Glinvizz: This is awful; the library is destroyed. I guess, in the same vein, my house is gone too. At least I have been offered some housing at the Rusty Dragon along with some of the other residents of Sandpoint. I'm not one for adventure, but I really want to get to the bottom of why this happened. Also, I can not abide the destruction of so much literature!
