Session 15

PCs (lvl 6): Gardan, Thana, Terric, Toruk

Troubles in Tyr continue, as the PCs try to gather as much support as possible among the several squabbling factions.

The craftsmen are angry with the merchants for reaping most of the benefits of their hard work; their malcontent generates violence directed at the merchant's warehouses and offices. The PCs manage to calm down the crowd, earning the merchant's support in the form of supplies for the army.

The Council of Tyr demands an investigation to apprehend the "true" culprits behind Kalak's assassination. Knowning the truth all too well, Tithian enlists the PCs to conduct a token investigation, and to find the most convenient scapegoat. The PCs interview a few nobles, receiving several bribes in exchange for immunity.

One night, as the PCs return to their abodes, they're ambushed by sharp-shooters hiding on the rooftops of Tyr's Elven Quarter. Though heavily wounded in the attempt, the PCs manage to escape with their lives. Thana is knocked unconscious, and in her delirium she forges a pact with a mysterious creature with a dragon-like visage. When she awakes, she holds a metal necklace bearing the symbol of a three-headed dragon.

Having recovered from their wounds, the PCs walk the streets of Tyr, where they notice a charismatic man trying with his rethroic to sway the crowd against the current government of Tyr. The PCs approach the man, and succeed in silencing him without resorting to violence.
