Plot Summary:
It’s a pleasant day in the Firebreathing Kittens guild hall. No fires, large monsters or other threats disturb the peace as Jade, Skirmish and Wing have some afternoon snacks and drinks. That is until a halfling man bursts through the door, snags Skirmish’s drink and downs it to quench his thirst. Obviously this draws the attention of the Kittens that are present and they converge at the table where the halfling and Skirmish now sit. 
The halfling introduces himself as Zygor Trillbit and he is in dire need of help. His best friend, a wolf named Winston Wolfshill, has gone missing during a trip in Rhett's Wood. Also missing is the wolf cub Nettie who had appeared some time ago and who Winston had taken as his own. Zygor wants the Firebreathing Kittens to go to Rhett’s Wood and find the 2 missing wolves and then bring them back to Zygor. He gives them a note which he says contains his address. He promises payment on delivery of the wolves and to help find them he hands the group a piece of cloth that he had used to dry Winston before so it smelled like him. Wing and Nugget, the trackers of the party, could surely use that to find the wolves. He also gives a short description of the wolves, they both have gray fur and blue eyes. 
As soon as Zygor leaves, Wing opens the note and it appears to be blank. Jade and Skirmish think the note might be written in invisible ink and they try to reveal its contents by exposing it to fire. This however, is not enough to reveal the note. 
The party travels to Rhett’s Wood where they start looking for wolf tracks. With the scent from the cloth they were given, Wing and Nugget are able to find a trail left by the wolves and Zygor when they were in the woods before. This trail leads the party to a cave, in which they find a small campsite with 3 sleeping bags. One of them smells like Zygor, another like Winston the wolf and the third has an unfamiliar smell but is presumed to belong to the wolf cub. As Skirmish and Wing investigate the campsite and rummage through a backpack, Jade comes face to face with 2 wolves, an adult and a cub. Seeing the bright blue eyes, Jade concludes that these are the wolves that the group was sent to find. She gives some jerky to the wolf cub and plays with it while the adult wolf watches. 
As the other party members start noticing the wolves, the group is set upon by 2 unknown assailants. One of the assailants grabs Skirmish to restrain him, the other uses magic to charm Wing who now believes the assailant is his new 2nd best friend, after Nugget of course. 
A fight breaks out as the man grabbing Skirmish starts stabbing with a dagger and magic missiles start flying about. Skirmish and Jade engage the 2 assailants, aided by the large wolf. The charmed Wing tries to stop the fighting by throwing up fog clouds. 
Skirmish and the dagger wielder exchange blows, leaving Skirmish bleeding and raging. Eventually the concentration on the charm spell is broken and Wing can join his party members in the fight. Some unfortunate attacks later, the magic using assailant drops to the ground, being shocked and then burned to a crisp. This is the que for the knife wielder to drop a smoke bomb and flee. 
After the dust has settled, the 2 wolves transform back into their real forms, those of Winston "Backup" Millien and Nouvelandro Millien, whom Jade had met in a previous adventure. Winston tells the group that the assailants were sent by the Brotherhood of Woe who still want Winston and his son dead. The group figures out a plan to resurrect the dead magic user and make him see 2 dead wolves, which hopefully leads him to think that Winston and Nouvelandro are already dead. Jade goes back to the city to buy 2 scrolls of revivify while Skirmish and Wing secure some wolf corpses. When Jade returns, the plan is put into motion, the magic user is revivified and when he eventually awakens he sees the wolf corpses and flees the scene. 
The party hands Winston the blank note they were given and he uses a calligraphy set to reveal the hidden address that it contains. The party travels with the father and son to the safe house location, where they are greeted by Zygor. They are handsomely rewarded for their help and reassured that in the future when dealing with the Brotherhood of Woe, the FBK will be called on again.
