## Hide and Seek

With Ren and Dhamon invisible, they sneak out into the halls of the HQ. The others and Camilla remain hidden in the storage room, waiting for them to return. They move around the hallways on the first floor and discover some rooms, but avoid most of the high traffic areas. They manage to stay undetected and find each other again. They find room with stairs and head up to the second floor.

Meanwhile, the rest of the party are chilling in the storage room quietly when they hear some noise outside the door. Three guards are passing, but one says he needs to step into the storage room to get something. They scramble to hide as the guard steps inside the room. After a few tense moments, the guard sees them, and they quickly attack. They manage to take him out silently. They hear the other guards calling for him, so they quickly hide the body in one of the barrels in the storage room. They hide again as the other two come in, looking for the third. After they see nothing, they assume they missed him leaving and head out, the party letting out a sigh of relief.

## Getting that Dirt

Upstairs, Ren and Dhamon discover several guards walking the hallways. They manage to quietly sneak by them and find several offices of high ranking mercenaries. As they break into and search them, eventually they stumble onto the office of Captain Galavix. Rummaging through the desk and the office, they discover paperwork that is correspondance proving that someone has been paying off Galavix to look the other way when attacks would come towards the monastery. The documents also implicate several of his lieutenants, including Tembrial. They quickly head back with their evidence.

They reach the storage room without any problems, reuniting the party. They says there was a problem while they were gone, but they took care of it. They leave through the secret door and head into the sewers, sneaking back to the monastery. They present the evidence to Tariq who says he will get several of his monks to go through it and finds the evidence they need to make a case against Captain Galavix. The party heads to bed, their job done.

## Morning Wake Up Call

 **Location** | Outside the Monastery of Golden Sun

The party awake and during breakfast, Tariq tells them that the evidence they found is indeed damning and they are going to head down to present the evidence to Admiral Kaias Lorbelle. The party agrees to accompany him, along with Camilla. As they head towards the city, they are met by a contingent of mercenaries led by Captain Galavix. He accuses the party of theft, saying he has evidence, but Tariq tells him he isn't buying what he is selling him.

A battle breaks out. After a long skirmish, with several people going down and some almost dying, the party manages to defeat the corrupt mercenaries, including Captain Galavix and Tembrial, whom Dhamon purposefully makes sure dies. With the bad guys defeated, and the evidence there to incriminate them, the party's job is finally complete. They rest and heal up in the monastery.

## Goodbyes and So Longs

Camilla officially leaves the group, staying at the monastery to rebuild. Master Kor has a brief discussion with Wrax where he reveals he is leaving. Tariq will remain in charge, but he is certain his presence at the monastery is why they were targeted. He also wants to seek out and find those responsible for paying off Captain Galavix. He says that he can keep the sword and he wishes him luck.

They party leaves and gets on a boat heading east. They decide that their next destination is going to be **Byrmin**, investigating Aust's mother and these **Pits** that she is supposedly been sold to. They travel several days, uneventfully, east on the Valu River. After ten days they arrive at a port city and disembark.

Their next leg of the journey takes them north...
