## City Description

The outer walls of Zadash are 15 feet high and form a somewhat triangular perimeter outline around the city. They are made of thick basic stonework and masonry. The southern gate has a 15-foot-wide portcullis that is held aloft by large chains. Two pairs of Crownsguards flank each side of the entry gate, keeping a silent watch. Outside the southern walls are fields where crop workers harvest various vegetables and crops. Closer to the walls the fields give way to ramshackle communities of tent cities and hovel towns.

Beyond the walls, the city has a number of interior walls that have arches between them. The gaps formed by these arches are 15-20 feet in length and 40 feet wide, creating wide tunnels through them. These tunnels have buildings set into the walls on the edges. On top of these walls, horseless carts and carriages move throughout the city.
The architecture and buildings are designed to rise and seems to curve towards the streets. The buildings flanking the street nearest to the gate are quite destitute, though the buildings began to graduate into a standard village feel further along the street.

## Society

Size-wise, Zadash is comparable to the metropolis of Port Damali, though where Zadash is tall, Port Damali is more spread out.

Most of the populace around Zadash consists of humans, with the occasional halfling, tiefling and dwarf. At least one firbolg, Pumat Sol, resides in the city.
Once the capital of the Julous Dominion and now the largest city in the Marrow Valley, Zadash has a population of 89,210 as of the year 835 PD. The racial breakdown of the city is 70% humans, 11% halflings, 9% dwarves, and 10% other races.

## Summary of Events

After arriving at the transportation circle in the Library of the Cobalt Soul, Smashmouth dicked around for a bit. The party visits a risque bookstore but decide not to buy anything. Gen tails Greg to a school where she "sees" him telling a teacher lady how he found his son. This is Champ's future step mom. Dircc bought some bread and tortured pigeons in the park while he had a heart-to-heart with Rock, and Bea participated in tavern karaoke before going to bed.

The following day, Smashmouth took a quest in the shopping district and met Tilda in the Wumpus toy shop. The toy shop had a problem with the dolls coming to life and attacking. Bea casts dispel magic and everything is fine. They meet Tilda in tied up in the back who tells them that some guy walked in and cursed the place. After some more questions, they learn that Tilda is part of an amateur adventure party made up of herself (who goes by Morbius), Laramie, Chunt, and Gideon. The person who cursed the store is Laramie, former friend. She was concerned for Gideon who never returned from the sewers after venturing down there to find Laramie who had been acting weird ever since he found a ring (Ring of Alopecia).

After traversing the sewers, the party finds Gideon in conflict with Laramie, and with an unconscious Chunt on the ground in tropical wear. Laramie kills and turns Bea into a vampire (rip) and the group is successful in rescuing Gideon. He continues on the quest to find the ring in Felderwin with the group, and upon success (Bea is manipulated to put on the ring), returns to Zadash to see if it can cure Laramie, Unfortunately the stake was left in Laramie for too long and he's dead by the time they find him in the sewers. Dircc decomposes the body and Gideon collects a part to bury above ground.

The group also shopped around and met Pumat Sol (except for one time that Marina didn't want to do the voice). After retrieving the ring, the party takes it to Pumat's elf employee for identification. He is unable to identify the ring and needs to have a lie down after the intense dizzy spell he earns from trying. Dircc went to Tilda's home and tried to get her to pay him more gold for the sewer business, but offers to return later to collect his I.O.U.
