==Recap==
===29th February, 1512===
The Santa Barbara Town Council are in a walled keep. They just defeated a giant venomous spider that was living in a cavern under the keep, down the well.
===2nd March===
They get home to Santa Barbara. David tells Governor Daffodil that a ship arrived with new citizens. While the party were out of town, three were robberies of a store in town and of the Campbell Estate. The party take a long rest.
===Friday, 8th March, 1512===
The long rest is over. There has been another robbery. Captain Po Tato and Lili are assigned to investigate. Po Tato fundamentally misunderstands how to investigate, and intimidates the owners of the Lemon Sisters. Po Tato makes one of the sisters think the other sister is killed. The culprits are two human males, one with short blonde hair and the other with long black hair. Neither wears shoes.
The two go to the Seaglass Jewelry Market and demands everyone get on the ground. To intimidate the crowd further, Lili and Po Tato break some glass. Kanon D. B'aal overhears the cries of panic and breaking glass. Kanon demands Po Tato and Lili stand down, but they refuse. Kanon leaves to get the Governor. Before the Governor gets back, Po Tato threatens the crowd to get up and act like nothing happened. By the time Lili and the Governor arrive, the scene appears more calm. Daffodil thinks Kanon is being jealous. Kanon tries to salvage the situation and questions the terrified townsfolk. Kanon finds out that the thieves only stole coins and no valuables. Lili does an artist sketch of the black haired main.
The party head to the Campbell Estate where the widow Lady Elizabeth Campbell lives. It is the estate of the late Governor Colin Campbell. Kanon insists that Lili and Po Tato not come, but Daffodil insists his "top detective" come along.
The party are greeted by a butler and are lead inside to meet with Elizabeth Campbell. Against Kanon's protests, Lili and Po Tato talk with Elizabeth Campbell. While Lili talks with Elizabeth, Captain Po Tato tries to frame Kanon as throwing a Firebolt. Kanon uses the Sending spell to tell Elizabeth that she isn't behind any of this madness. Elizabeth tells Lili about the robbery, the two human males came to the estate, held them up, and took all the cash from a vault, and ignored all the valuables.
The party go to a local breach, following the evidence of tar and sand found at the scene of the crime. They go to line up everyone, but two surfers flee, one with blonde hair and one with black hair. Po Tato chases along the coast with Lili while Kanon and Daffodil wait with the other surfers.
The fleeing surfers get away. Kanon finds out from a surfer named Bodhi that the fleeing surfers are named Rico and Utah. The party find out that Rico and Utah are crab fishermen from Bon' Theris and live with the muckers.
The party goes to Utah's house, which is next door to Rico's house. The party go to the front door and Kanon goes to the back of the house. At the back of the house Utah is sneaking out the back window. Kanon lures Utah to the front of the house where the rest of the party is. Utah realizes the situation and flees, but is shot in the knee by Po Tato's crossbow. Kanon casts Detect Thoughts and finds the person is fully guilty. Utah says that Rico has escaped while the party were talking with him.
Governor Daffodil decide he will pretend to publicly execute Utah in two days to lure out Rico. Daffodil also puts Po Tato on paid suspension for his police brutatlity.
===Monday, 11th March, 1512===
In the town square where the execution of Utah will take place. As Governor Daffodil gives his speech to the crowd, Po Tato spots Rico in the crowd. Po tackles Rico to the ground. Po then plants drugs and arrests Rico.
Governor Daffodil has the crowd cheer for Po Tato, and explains this whole situation was a trap. There won't be an execution today, and Rico and Utah are taken to jail.
The party go retrieve the stolen goods from Rico and Utah's houses.
At the jail, Captain Po Tato asks Rico and Utah to become drug runners for him, and they refuse.
Kanon goes talk with Rico and Utah and recruits them to the cause of overthrowing Governor Daffodil. Kanon then goes to visit with Lady Elizabeth Campbell and goes to recruit her as well. Much of Lady Campbell time is taken up taking care of her son Andy Campbell, but she promises to help Kanon in the future.
