Agency - Session 25 Recap

Nadurmios 3, 2358

Since the sting operation isn’t until tonight, we head out to do some shopping. We pick up a Necklace of Prayer Beads for Arianell (Ben is likely to regret this later), a Ring of the Ram and some spell scrolls. Oz picks up some ammo as well. We also pick up some robes for disguises.

At the sting operation that night Baab is out waiting for the contact while we and other guards remain out of sight. After an hour or so, a figure approaches Baab and code phrases are exchanged. The figure hands Baab a key and tells him that it will open a chest at the stagecoach office. Baab hands him the papers. The figure turns and leaves and then is grabbed by the city guards. Baab motions for us. We join the crowd around the prisoner, who is Archibald Devers. Baab knows him as he is a freelancer that has worked for him before. We start interrogating him, and find out the chest is real and that he did something to the chest (we later find out he put a tracker in it, more on that later). While we are there Oz see’s something on a nearby rooftop, but that quickly it is gone. Not long after Archibald is hit with a blow dart, and drops dead. Oz sees someone running on the rooftops and he and Qui take off after him. After a missed shot and a telepathic message, Oz is able to hit the assassin with a bolt. After getting hit the assassin drops down to the ground near the Toraches compound. Once the rest of the team show up, Oz takes off tracking the assassin. With the help of Hunters Mark (and some Nat 20s) Oz is able to track the assassin to an old temple, turned into a warehouse. Oz somehow recognizes the markings as a temple of Basan, which is odd since they don’t have Basan as a god on Galera. Basan is the Rharnian god of Death.

We enter the warehouse and track the assassin out the back door. We find him very injured in the alley. With a little bit of healing we are able to question him. Even with Detect Thoughts and Zone of Truth we were not able to get anything from him, unless King Anamcoil is really behind this all… The assassin later tells us his name is Simon, but we are pretty sure that is a lie. We take him back to the City Guard and hand him over to Baab.

Baab tells us that they have verified that the chest is at the stagecoach office and that he suggests leaving it there to see what happens since we have a way to track it. We eventually agree and head back to the Inn.

Long Rest

Nadurmios 4, 2358 (midday at this point)

We get up and have some brunch and head out towards the printing press using our new transportation method, Wind Walk.

We get there and notice that the walls seem to be thicker than they need to be. We send Qui on a scouting mission and between that and what we can see from the windows the printing press is inside along with 4 people. We decide to wait until night, or whenever these people leave to go in and investigate further.
