== City Description ==
Deastok is an affluent city in the Dwendalian Empire's Truscan Vale. It is the hometown of Taryon Darrington and the base of the Darrington Brigade. It is also the sister city to Kamordah.
Deastok is located on a hill just north of the Cyrengreen Forest and is surrounded by farmland. The town has regular guard patrols that march around the city. The guards are armed with crossbows and some patrol on horseback. The farmland surrounding the town is segmented with different colored fences and is generally well organized. Deastok itself is protected by stone walls. Each entrance into the town has a large metallic gate which is closed in case of an attack.
Castle Lorelei is not far from Deastok.
== Society ==
Deastok is thoroughly controlled by the Truscan family, though it is also a longtime major hub of the Myriad. It is a destination for wealthy travelers on vacation while also being supported by a timber industry enabled by gnomish technology.
== Summary of Events ==
Yussa asks Smashmouth to retrieve a magical medallion from the auction at the Darrington ball, they buy new outfits and Bea makes roller skates that she cleverly wears under her dress. Once at the ball, the party is let in under the guise of being Yussa, his wife, his son, and their nanny. Bea wastes no time and flirts her way into information. She dances with an intern guy who waits in the garden for her while she openly flirts with a guard to see if she can start a fight between them. Gen and Champ sneak around and inspect the items up for auction. Bea fakes fainting and is taken into the guard barracks in the back in the hopes that she'll find the items for auction there. Dircc follows just in case. While this is happening, Champ and Gen successfully find and steal the correct medallion, and Dircc pretends to be an angry husband and gets Bea out of the back. The group leaves after creating a scene. 
On the out of the ball, Smashmouth is stopped by a hooded figure on the escape out of the city who reveals himself as Greg. Greg tells Champ about his past and everyone was worried he would take the boy away, but the opposite happened and Greg joined Smashmouth. They continued their quest and end up reuniting Champ with his grandfather Count Loden and the three of them have a heart to heart and come to a reluctant understanding. Together, they go across the street to fight Lord Desmond, who had incorrectly told Count Loden that Greg had killed his daughter. In actuality, Lord Desmond had hired assassins to kill Cecilia in order to assert his control over the Porteau family since he was unable to marry her.
In the creepy house across the street we find NOT A VAMPIRE, that would come back to bite us in the ass, but a possessed Lord Desmond who is angry and casts Zone of Truth on Smashmouth to extract information about TACOSE and Journey. Smashmouth somehow pins it on Yussa and Bea and Dircc double Dimension Door drop him 599 feet to his death. Although Lord Desmond was being possessed by some unknown BBEG, he unfortunately dies anyways. Count Loden tells Smashmouth that he will clean up the political mess the fight left behind and take care of Desmond's body.
