We learn from Rasten that Hentron is the ‘Blue King’.
Rasten helps us get good deals and service with the local armourers and thieves guild. We return a suit of Elven Mail to him in gratitude. We find an armourer who can repair the Shanah armour – it will cost the equivalent of 6K (reduced from 9K due to Rasten) – we can offer 3 suits of +2 Runic Giant Chainmail worth 2.5K each. We also look at getting the runic leather armour repaired, but as a low priority.
We go to the local Shanah shrine, and learn that the tournament for the 1st Sword of Shanah will be held on the first day of spring. We think it wise to return the First Sword’s Holy Symbol to the local priest. Though just a small shrine, the priest is rapidly rising in influence and power, and is extremely grateful to receive the Holy Symbol. He asks if there is anything he can do for us – so hopefully we will have a source of Raise Deads and Restorations when we get back! (He is just a bit higher level than us, so hopefully that means 9th level plus.)
We continue planning how to get Hentron back – and are advised that a cunning, stealthy heist is probably not our style. We should play to our strengths – ie ignorant brute force. There will be some junior acolytes there, and a couple of decent priests supporting Sorlor. There will also be people manning the walls in case of Lizardman attack – and so the idea of trying to get some kind of diversion to draw more people to the walls seems a sensible idea.
