Mask Campaign Chapter 7a: Home Again
The party has been placed ashore by Black
Lily. Out of a sense of loyalty for saving her and her crew
she has not robbed them, but she has stranded them far from civilization.
It will take the party several days to reach a nearby town and book
passage back to Harken. The ocean voyage is uneventful, for once,
and upon arrival they will attempt to seek out the mage Charilus
for further information.
However less than a hundred yards away from the
docks they will be stopped and accosted. A group of 4 rough looking
men will step into the players path and demand all their valuables.
Alert players will notice several more men (5) attempting to move
in behind them. This group is not particularity interested in talking
since they have been hired by Baron
Ganth to rob the players. They will resort to violence with
little provocation.
