Welcome to Quiet Citadel

Fuelwen: Welcome to quiet citadel, a city that praises weakness and worships failure. We stopped at the first bar we saw to find our way to the Salty Dog. There we discovered that, when one buys a drink one must also buy a drink for the poor. Of course, with no incentive to work, there's an entire underclass of dolists that cling to the scraps left by their betters.

Rake, intent on making them work for a living, hired the three wastrels beside us.

The Salty Dog

Fuelwen: The Salty Dog was more of the same. Yelena, the local paladin, forms the remnants of lawful authority on the island. Everyone else has left on some foolish campaign. For all the human refuse in the streets, there were a handful of able bodied sailors in town. I hired them on and introduced them to the "captain".

Rake hired everyone else in this tavern and built a small army of peasantry.

Planning Defenses?

Fuelwen: Curse these toothless cowards. Their weakness and disinterest, their decadent corruption should be its own reward. The only reward they could give that would make it worth my time to protect them would be the town itself- something which they have already declined.

I hate them, I hate their town, and I hope they all die.

But I feel no love for those who worship senseless slaughter as well. To maintain a lawful authority, I need to take action. So we must go on a hunt for gargoyles and evil clerics. Given the fact that they expect no resistance at all, we have the element of surprise on our side. I also think we should take the battle to them- ambush them as they approach the town.
