Welcome to Wingsport
We spend a day Cedarin, resting, learning spells and picking up gossip. We hear that Riverside is more or less untouched, and rumours that Duke Adamas now has a dragon.
We then go on Wingsport and settle in at a reasonable hostelry (3sp/pp/night including food).
The party disperses through the town on various tasks - Joshua and Twoo who are native to Wingsport guide people around. The clerics go to the shrines of their gods (so Wun does get to discuss familiars/totems with the priest), Quercuis gets to see a man about some herbs (he knows of Silverleaf, but thinks Mithrilleaf is a myth), Francis sees a bow-maker, Garaf tries to flog some GARM wands, Hamish tries to acquire some combat poison, Caradoc tries to contact the thieves guild (if one exists), and all characters gather as much info as they can, whilst also trying to make it known to any of V's agents that they want to make contact.
The next day in the evening, contact is made - a native Orc called Char asks to join us for dinner, and after he passes the goblet test, we get down to business. He does appear to be legitimate (knows our names and history of BHS, and of V's preference for brandy etc) and says he has been asked to look out for us (as have agents in other cities.) 'The boss' will be here in a couple of days, so we should wait for him here. He passes on the following info:
* Beriesa is not as 'safe' as it used to be. There is a new temple of GARM there, and Beriera is no longer quite so sympathetic to the Alveran side. As mail/messages sent out from Wingport may go through Beriera, that it probably not a secure route - better wait for V to send any messages we need to.
* Duke Adamas' dragon is about the same size as the one that attacked Willston - ie about 600' long. Its 'colour' is not known - every report is different, leading Char to joke that it is a 'rainbow' dragon. It is currently living in the lake at Northlake, and is one of the reasons that Duke Adamas is accepted as regent.
* Char comments that the local Wingsport priest of Dekatur seems remarkably cheerful despite the major set-backs that Ghoulagabba has suffered (eg. failed to take either Northlake or Willston, and lost StarStorm and its massive army of undead rabble along with all the elite Vampires.)
* Thirson came through here about a month ago, and headed out southwest towards Northlake.
Party to let Darrell know in the next couple of days what they are doing while they wait for Vinmira.
