Return to Lakewood

After watching Buck put three shots into the head of Rigatone, Bodo suggested that Buck's actions were excessive and unnecessary. Buck argued that Rigatone would have hurt more people if he wasn't put down. Beldor countered that the Fateful 8 could have saved him and helped rehabilitate him, but Buck pointed out that Rigatone had several chances to stand down and didn't. While not everyone was happy with the outcome, the argument died there, in deference to Buck's position as a justicar.

The Fateful 8 rested a bit and Beldor and Mr. Fahrenheit used the time to take the unconscious merfolk to the chamber where Esmerelda last was. Esmerelda and her merfolk had since left, so Beldor left a note on the bodies to inform them of the situation once they came to. Mr. Fahrenheit then led the rest of the fey to the portal room.

Squimish bestowed a token to each member of the Fateful 8 as a thanks for their assistance in the matter. The tokens let fey everywhere know that the Fateful 8 are friends of the fey. They also served as passages to the Feywild. He then taught Bodo how to make healing potions. Before he departed, Squimish tried one last time to convince Froderick to come with them, but Froderick felt his place was still in Antarra. After all the fey left, Froderick tried to destroy the portal, but was unable to do so.

Searching the rest of the chamber, Bodo and Buck noticed a strange shimmer on a far wall. Upon investigating, they noticed that the rock sounded hollow in one area. Beldor began to mold into the stone, while Bodo, Buck, and Froderick worked on ways to break through the wall. They discovered a storage room full of raw goods in sacks and boxes marked P&S. The Fateful 8 surmised that these were goods belonging to Peggy and Stan's farm.

Before leaving, the Fateful 8 collapsed the entrance to the portal room, then repaired the wall between the storage room and the chamber. They would know the quick way back, but would keep it a secret from others.

As the group returned to town, Beldor showed the remaining fey where they will probably be working. They spoke with Christoff and informed him on what happened. Christoff dispatched some villagers to reclaim the stolen goods from the Fey village and the Fateful 8 introduced him to the fey that chose to stay behind.

The party then visited Madame Morraine and asked her to help integrate the fey into society. Madame Morraine gifted the Fateful 8 a number of potions as a thanks for their work.

The Fateful 8 visited brother Markham and asked him to house the fey for the time being. Beldor made a donation of 100 gold to cover expenses.

Finally, the party retired to the inn for some much needed rest and relaxation. The party enjoyed their various vices, from pipes, to pipeweed, to flagons of ale, to harder Dwarven liquor. Mr. Fahrenheit, Bodo, and Froderick tried their hand at dice, though their inebriation may have affected their abilities.

The party awoke the next morning to Won speaking loudly with the morning patrons. As they made their way downstairs for breakfast, they began to discuss where their adventure may take them next and ultimately decided that Port Solaris may be the next point of interest, as both Mr. Fahrenheit and Dreld had business there. Before departing, Jolene mentioned that she was trying to get into crystal trading and asked that the Fateful 8 bring crystals from Beezlewigzoridia if they happened to find any.
