**Notes**:

We all take a well earned long rest, everyone levels up. Bea puts robot goblin Curtis in charge in lieu of Bernard. Yen calls our sending stone and portals us to a crevasse somewhere secret where Journey is waiting for us. She leads us to a secret door in the wall to the newly established TACOSE headquarters, it's built like an ant colony and tunnels down underground. We have to fill out our intake paperwork again. She reminds us that Wario was abducted when the old base was raided. Journey asks Bea to assure her bosses that she's still aligned with the organization, Bea says if they're so concerned, they can ask her in person, she's no longer in the business of making promises to air. Journey also expresses an interest in recruiting Greg as a spy, Champ is distraught but Greg tells him to practice the breathing exercises he taught him and accepts the mission.

Gen casts Zone of Truth and everyone asks questions. Journey says the antigoblinification machine was purchased at an auction in Jrusar by an unknown buyer. Gen casts Zone of Truth and begins interrogating Journey. Champ tells a peepee story. Bea asks Greg to FMK the group, to which he winks at her. Everyone breaks off to do their own training/research.

Gen visits the nerds in the library and talks to Winston Payne. She gets information about the Feywild and researches Papa's symptoms. Winston tells her it sounds like he has an Absence of Spirit, his body is here but he is not. If he is separated for too long, he will die. Then Gen tries to flirt with the guy and it's a painful watch. Champ learns how to read! He's reading on level for his age! He also practices with his greatsword "the sword is mightier than the sword". Bea also talks to the nerds about her "friend" with a cursed toe ring. They confirm that cutting off the cursed digit will not get rid of the curse if the piece of jewelry is evil. She trains with her dagger and makes it glow with artificer magic for flair. Roverrandom is a weasel again and Bea makes him a cubone mask.

Dircc spends time with Rock and gets a super fun dream by the whiskey tree with an elf girl. He rolls a nat 20 for how drunk he is, so there's no helping the situation. He asks her "what" and she clutches her throat and chokes. Says "I'm not allowed to tell you", they have a mutual friend and she can't say Rock's name. "It's important to me that you know he's not a rock." She's from a different time when he was a bigger problem. She gets brutally hit in the had and a small orcish girl appears (Dircc's little sister?). She sounds like Rock and tells him "Be careful with who you trust, she was a bad lady" and she drags the elf woman off camera by the hair. Rock asks for some sacrifices and asks if he's felt anything in his foot or if it's healed over. Dircc wakes up.

Gen continues to be horny and gets no game from anyone. Bea finds Greg in the kitchen and asks to talk to him solo. He's very down for a one on one with her and she has to calm him down lmaooo. They make a pinky promise pact to hunt each other for sport in 20 years. She tells him about the ring of alopecia to gauge his reaction before she tells the group. He takes it pretty okay and things bode well. Gen asks out Winston and gets rejected and goes cry in a bar. Bea finds and comforts her, Gen pricks her finger and offers it to Bea (insane), Bea cure wounds it. Everyone joins for breakfast and Bea tells them all about Strike's will and the ring. They don't make a big deal about it at all and Dircc says Rock talks to him. We all know this.

A small holographic woman (Cindy) appears on the table in front of them (in a kind of Obi Wan way). Tells us to file all complaints with the FHC and teleports us to a waiting room in the Feywild. Bea picks up a magazine and starts reading then goes to the receptionist. Smashmouth has landed in the head offices of the Fey High Court as lawyers representing a mystery client. We are given nametags with our real names on them and Bea turns her hat into a white powdered wig.

We are led into the holding room to speak with our client - it's an older halfling man wearing white robes with runes up the middle, PAPA whose name is Fransisco. He looks at us and goes "whoopsie". Papa tell us we need to get him declared guilty for his crimes and continues to be incredibly unhelpful. He pissed off a high arch fey (the Queen, Titania) and we have to prove he's the injured party or else we'll get injured too. Bea casts mage hand to shake Papa's hand and we learn you have to convince the room to let you do magic, so long as there's no malicious intent. We're handed our briefing case with all the case details. Six months ago Fransisco snuck into the Queen's chambers during a banquet with enough suspicious materials on him to auto accuse him of a crime, and he already had a mark against the Queen so it didn't look good. The ball was the final big party of the season and all the courts were present. Papa picked the lock, set off a silent alarm, and was caught with a serrated poison blade and truth serum. After an interrogation, guards found his hideout filled with palace blueprints, guard rotation information, and other incriminating evidence. Bea casts sending to him, and Papa admits he had weapons on him, although he didn't intend harm. The Queen has blackmail on him he was trying to get back. He is charged with breaking and entering and intent to kill.

Our court appointed aid is Gravemarker 4-2E, named after where she'll be buried once she's dead. Self described "the gothest possible elf", Gravemarker is an elf of the Shadar-kai, bound to the Shadowfell. She's dressed in ratty clothes and has a hunchback, although she doesn't walk hunched over. She tells Smashmouth that she's essentially in witness protection, and the fey are paying her in years instead of money. Bea says Gravemarker can call her "Squeeze" and Champ goes by "Longshot".

Champ pretends to eat old potato peels and pickpockets Grave, he takes all her goodberries then gives them back and tells her to shove it. The three witnesses of the crime were:

Sean Greyerl, age 457, Seafoam Court, Party Guest.

Luke Atmey, age 292, Court of Light, Party Guest.

Frank Sahwit, age 57, human.

Dircc telepathically talks to Papa again, and Papa tells him "make sure Gen knows it's not her fault." As we all leave to begin the investigation, Grave's hump moves a bit.
