MARS 3 - Rangea's Secrets

Tovin gives the party a list with materials as well as the address of his brother Marrow, who runs an inn called the Cerulean Cyclops in Rangea. He sent a raven to his brother and asked him to house the party for free while they’re there because they are helping him. Tovin decides that he'll send Akee with the party to help transport supplies, which the part reluctantly agrees to. Morta pulls Akee aside and warns him that she'll kill him if he tries anything funny. Akee nervously tries to assure them that he was only a bandit out of necessity, and he's happy to be working for Tovin now.

The party, along with Akee and the three horses, one of which belonged to Harry, prepared to depart for Rangea. Before leaving Thiala asked if Shanice was still there and finds out she left for Dawnhold with her sister that morning. The trip was mostly uneventful, with the party making light banter and keeping a close eye on Akee. Akee mostly kept to himself on the trip as since he was very scared of Morta.

While the party is traveling, about two thirds of the way they stumbled upon a ruined caravan with "Corvo's Curios (a subsidiary of Ninathra Corp)" written on the side. It was attacked by goblins. Morta carefully examined the tracks and signs of battle and was able to determine that there were ten goblins, they came from the east and ambushed Corvo, who was alone. Six goblins left to the west with Corvo, who was still alive but injured at the time. The other four returned to the west carrying supplies they had looted. Akee reminded them they were on a time table and did not have enough time to pursue both groups. The group briefly debated which way they should go with Aegon wanting to go after the group with supplies. Aegon conceded and the group chased after Corvo.

They followed to a cave the goblins were using as a base. They had Akee watch the horses and the party snuck up to the cave to set up an ambush. Morta cast thaumaturgy to make her voice loud and booming. She shouted into the cave to try and scare the goblins out. Only one goblin fell for the ruse and came screaming out of the cave. It was quickly and easily dispatched by the four of them. They then ventured into the cave and found Corvo's lifeless body. Deeper inside they found the remaining five goblins and fought them. One of the goblins had a magic deck of cards that he used to magically jump around the battlefield. After they killed the goblins they found some of Corvo's magic items in the goblins' possession.

Gran got a Clockwork Spider, a Magic Coin, a keg of wine and six glowing crystals he mined off of the wall. Aegon got a Potion of Poison and a +1 Silver dagger. Morta got four mystery potions labeled “in case of emergency”. Thiala got an old pocket watch with a yellow note that says "HOLD: DO NOT SELL", a Technicolor Paintbrush, and the Deck of Many Magics. After leaving the cave they used the Technicolor Paintbrush to repaint Corvo's cart and took it with them. Before going to bed Thiala drew a card from the deck and was bound to the ground and needed Gran's help to dig her out.
