Murder!

Isra'a

The old soothsayer turned herself in - stopped a burglar in the act. I must say, given her 'magical' prowess, I suspect she could have stopped him rather than kill him. Fool for getting himself killed. I was tasked with helping the search of her residence. It looked to go as she told it, I can't fault the others for releasing her. I will fault them for granting her so much reverence, I don't trust her. Or I plain don't like her - either way, I'm glad to be through with her.

The Kaijitsu Legacy

Isra'a

Amiko now stands as head of her household - a shame in a way. I had planned to lighten the Kaijitsu coffers some, but this changes things. Now she has tasked us with exploring the secret entrance to her glassworks. It is likely to be dangerous, but it is also likely to be profitable.

The Catacombs of Wrath

Haneet

Isra'a

After following the passage beneath the glassworks a way we came upon a narrow ledge that blocked our path. No problem here... wrong. We almost lost a share right away, first the old man showed his age and tumbled over the edge towards the sea. We managed to hold the rope and pull him back up. Once up he showed his temper and shoved Haneet over the edge. Another move like that and I might just have to forget to disarm a trap one day... I happen to like that little gnome.

Once inside the cave system we came upon a beast of water - it seemed to confine itself to the pool it resided in. I was given a chance to try out my new bow, courtesy of Tsuto. Once that was dispatched we continued on - I like taking point. Allows me a chance to eye up any potential trinkets first. My eyes were a little too big for my hands tho and I took several heavy slashes from a trap. It isn't right to use such a fine jeweled weapon in that way - I still mean to pry it loose.

Further in we happened across 2 monstrous looking abominations, I was able to loose a few arrows into them while the rest pushed in close and finished them off. Have I mentioned how much I hate goblins yet? Well, 3 armed ones are just as horrid. This bile spewing beasty alone was bad enough, but he managed to call forth a group of undead. I appreciate underhanded fighting as much as the next guy, but undead... that just isn't right.
