## Synopsis

### Reynard

Reynard's family is winding down after a party. In a back room, Dranyer sips a drink with Alister. Reynard asks Calvert about the contents of the safe they robbed at Celestial Vista. Calvert shares as little information as he pleases, and isn't impressed at Dranyer's lack of understanding about the amulet he found.

Esther walks in, saying Basil complained about Alister being rude on the job. He defends himself, saying Basil didn't do his job. Calvert agrees that Basil should take responsibility for his own failures. He talks about their next job: some archives are being transfered out from a salvage trip into the Mournland. If Cannith wants them that badly, Calvert wants them for the family. They might even sell them back. There's an industrialist in Sharn who's trying to curry favor with the houses. He chastises Dranyer for focusing on the fun of the job instead of their duty to their family.

Earlier at the party, Esther heard Maza ir'Thadian talking about her restaurant, The Oaks, and seems to not have a count on what's in her coffers. She's been in Sharn for generations, and has been very successful in Upper Northedge. She's a councilperson, which could be very successful depending on corruption level. She might have hundreds of thousands of galifars, and might be a long source of funds for the house.

Esther has also heard Thuranni has been sending more agents into Sharn.

*"More wine, anyone?"
—Reynard*

### Erys

In a Darguul ship, Zei is cleaning up the cabin. The door and an older hobgoblin walks in, a set of artificer's tools slung over his shoulder in a bag. He tells her to clean the tools after she's done. She takes out a schema and asks him about it, and he tells her to leave it on the bench. He mentions her transmuting into metal she did the previous week. It turned out good, but her ratios are off. He knows she likes the vibrancy of it, but the metals were compromised a bit.

Above deck, horns go off. Zei goes to see what's happening, but right at the entrance a younger hobgoblin opens the door and yells to run, and a cannonball comes flying through the hull and hits him.

Zei is thrown backwards. The hobgoblin yells at her to get everything packed up; they're leaving. She passes a hole in the deck and outside sees a ship with four bright greens sails, rapidly approaching. Rocus hooting, hollering, and singing comes from the ship. She runs back and starts packing.

A bunch of younger sailors run below deck, and begin loading the cannons.

This is Captain Ulfen's last big score. He's standing on deck, rapier at the ready for boarding the other ship. Green Egg Event augments Pegleg Richard to help him onto the other boat.

Below deck, Erys grabs as much as the daashor's things as she can. She pulls out a little bundle wrapped in a yellow cloth—her things. She goes up the stairs, looking for the daashor. She sees him on the opposite side of the ship, right where it's about to be hit. He's trying to loosen the ropes holding a life boat. Zei shouts for him to look out.

He grabs the railing right before impact, and manages to stay onboard. Pegleg Richard gets pushed onto his butt, and Green Egg Event is flooded onto the daashor's boat.

Ulfen flawlessly timed his run onto the other boat with the water. He does a perfect front flip, landing amongst the goblins, taking four of them out. He slides on the wet wood, impacting with the ship's captain. Ulfen extends his rapier, and they begin dueling on the ship.

*"Thinking it's time that you relent, dontcha say?"
—Ulfen*

The daashor tells Zei to get something in the hidden compartment under the cabinet. She easily finds it, and inside she sees a set of goggles and valuables. She pulls everything out and shoves it in her bag. Part of the ship falls into Zei's way, blocking her exit.

Green Egg Event landed on his squeezebox when he fell, and he realizes it's torn. He just starts squawking, and it gets across to his god that the captain should be cursed. Through a gem in the pommel of Ulfen's sword, he casts a spell at one of the corpses on the ground. Boney splinters erupt from it, piercing into the captain.
