Weekend Review

"Overall I am pleased with your success." says Archbaron Fex, looking at you with a slight smile. Behind him, Razelago stares focused on a map of Cheliax sitting at a child's sized table.
"However, mistakes were made. I have your weekly payment here," he says drawing out a satchel of gold for each of you. "100 pieces, as agreed upon. For dealing with Bolgart Caggan, I have added 50 more. This...'Cockroach King' would have been a repugnant ally to have relied on. I added 200 pieces for your efforts to eradicate him. Should he cause further problems in Longacre, I want you to eliminate him without expectation of further recompense. For maintaining good relations with the Vulture Crag mercenaries and not escalating hostilities, a further 50 gold each. Furthermore, I have been offered a grant from Egorian to request special supplies from the vaults of House Thrune, at the price of crafting.  I expect you to choose something that will assist you with your duties here. This..." he says, producing a thick book on to his desk and sliding it towards you, "is what they can offer."

"Now, to discuss your failures.  The killing of Mindy Parsons was a very poor way to handle a minor nuisance. The young girl was well liked by the locals. Bolgart Caggan was a difficult choice to make. By all witness accounts, the man was ready to fight to the death. The death of two of Staelish's men also did not go over well. Going forward, you will need to be more careful. Longacre is a small town, and word travels quickly. Even one more violent death and we may well find ourselves trying to put down a violent protest. If there is killing that needs to be done, it should be precise and serve a purpose.
Wyran, you said you have knowledge on who is respi sible for those flyers being distributed? See to it that they are captured. But first, it may serve us to borrow their method to send a more...inflamatory message, something more shocking, to turn opinion against them. Then, we arrest them. You agree, yes?" From his small sized table, Razelago lets out an irritated buzzing noise. "This will not do. Something will need to be done about Citadel Dinyar!"
"In time Razelago. In time. Wyran, you will need to see Lazzero Dalvera. I could help you with the problem your oath violation has caused, but the methods at my disposal are far less plesant. I hope you all learn a lesson about violating oaths so overtly. You are all dismissed. Send your damaged clothing to me after you have changed. I can mend them better than a seamstress, one of the benefits of specializing in conjuration magic. Keep up the good work."

As you turn to leave, the Archbaron says one last thing, "Oh, and do go handle the Castle Gate. It has been opened again"

The morning of Day 8, Cimri introduces you to two new arrivals; Jarquez Vecken and Samroy Rawles, friends of hers from a not too far off logging camp. The two are going to be staying in town and will serve as the new official Sheriff and Deputy. After sizing them up, you get the sense that they are little more than a pair of goons. Not very bright, but tough, with a helping of practical common sense, and willing to follow orders.
