Ep. 162 Destined Manifest Chapter One

—Jeff

Erys, Hob, Milo, and Reynard gather with their crew to steal a manifest from a Cannith warehouse. Things don't go as smoothly for them as they'd like, as right off the bat they're confronted with some guards who take their big goliath down. Milo brings him back to his feet, and the group take out both the warforged and Cannith guards.

## Synopsis

The crew is on their way to a House Cannith warehouse. The job: collect a shipping manifest. There's been murmurings of a large amount of raw material that House Cannith has recently brought in being used to ramp up their mass production of mundane weapons—swords, shields, halberds, etc.

Hob had overheard some conversations that the Boromar Clan is worried that House Cannith intends to use an almost exclusively warforged workforce for their new line—which would be putting all the hardworking smiths that they currently employ out of work, which would be putting less money into the population, and thus less money for Boromar.

Sigil flies the ship up to the warehouse. Two Cannith guards stand on either side of huge loading dock doors. As they begin their approach, Erys reaches over and inscribes something on Hob's bracer. It glows blue.

Hob jumps from the skycoach, but instead of punching like he meant to, he shoulders into one of the guards, causing him to stumble into the other one. Reynard takes a shot and hits one with his arrow, and as the guard falls back from the impact, he knocks into the other one and they both tumble over into the depths of Sharn.

Sigil hops out and moves to work the arcane lock on the door. Milo and Erys help him with it, and when it clicks into place the doors open with a thud. Hob and Kath throw them open the rest of the way, and inside they see three warforged wielding halberds, and three Cannith guards. Reynard starts the fight with his bow, and a guard crumples to the ground. Several warforged gang up on Hob and knock him to the ground.

*"Hob is having a very bad day."
—Philip*
Milo gives Hob a healing elixir, and Hob jumps back up, ready to fight the guards once again. Erys is very alarmed to see Hob get knocked down, and draws her weapon in a panic. She fires it at one of the warforged near Hob, and he goes flying back, a two-inch metal spike in the middle of his chest.

Sana and Kath attack in a very synchronized way, with Sana leaping off Kath's shoulder as she sinks her daggers between the plating of one of the warforged, while Kath swings her maul into the same one.

Milo casts a spell over Hob, and a protective shimmering field surrounds him, which the warforged's halberd bounces off of.

Reynard attacks with his dagger, and Erys continues shooting at the guards surrounding Hob. Her aim is a little off, and she causes rubble and debris to fall onto the warforged. To finish the last warforged off, she shoots at a chain that's holding a door up, and it comes down and crushes him.

End of episode.
