Unannounced Guest

Caitlyn: After returning from dealing with Nancy, Dook, Tirotin, and Caitlyn returned to Father Dumas' church to sleep for days. Arousing us from our deep slumber was the sound of church bells late into the night, causing us some concern that the church was under attack until Caitlyn's mind cleared and she remembered this sequence of bell-ringing heralded a prominent guest arriving at the church.

Dook and Caitlyn dressed for the occasion in courtier's outfits, while Tirotin couldn't be bothered with getting out of bed. Once downstairs Dook is asked by Father Dumas to hide and count weapons on the guards that would be entering the church. Caitlyn volunteered to use her abilities in illusion to make the church seem in better repair than it was, as well as to enhance the lighting. (She also threw in a few butterflies and glitter to good effect.)

Entering the church was a contingent of guards* and the Exarch Meika Toboschal.

• 25 Cygnaran standards, 15 Sanctium guards, 15 mercenaries-of-the-good-persusian, and 6 lightly armored personal guards with spell component pouches.

A Plea for Help

Upon finishing dinner with Wooster, the party was surprised by the shouting of a man in an alley. When they reached the corner, they found a terrified man being assaulted by something that resembled one of Caitlyn's menstruations (hypnotic pattern ooze). Alistair spent time augmenting himself before entering the fray. During that time, the merchant was engulfed by the ooze. Luckily, through teamwork, the ooze was defeated, and the man was saved from a death fast approaching. The man explained that he is an Idrian alchemist that recently moved here and was looking to set up shop. Thieves ransacked his cart, and in the process, the mixing of reagents formed the ooze. Each reward seems to be an item that provides a great effect, yet matched with a debilitating effect. (BTW, Mr. Wooster should get an item too)
