  • Cathance Lobdhain, Hikawera, Kaelani, Ondar Thundercaller, and Ka Kekoa accepted the mission from Taleisin of the Orderly Stones Monastery to find the origin of the kobolds who have been apparently training apex predators to attack the monks and their herds.
  • The Freelancers travelled to Orderly Stones monastery in two days without incident and overnighted there.
  • The next morning, after discussing likely locations for their search with Taleisin, they headed towards the leading edge of the skylith.
  • After spending the better part of a day going through pathless forests, the Freelancers encountered a path and snow.  Investigation revealed more apex predators:  winter wolves.
  • Instead of noting the situation and moving to the next likely location, the Freelancers provoked the wolves, then split the party.  The split party was attacked by three winter wolves, which they slew.
  • Reforming the party in the clearing housing the wolves, the Freelancers Investigated a tree stump which Hikawera had shattered.  They found some valuables covered in shattered potions.
    • Acquired:  161 eagles in coin, and 8 gems worth 10 eagles each:  2 azurite, 1 banded agate, 1 blue quartz, 2 hematite, 1 malachite, 1 tiger eye 
  • The Freelancers gave up on their search and returned to Orderly Stones monastery with the wolf pelts and heads.  Taleisin admonished them he still wanted to know the location of the kobolds, but paid a fee of 200 eagles per wolf head.
  • Returned to Freelancers Tavern Okeanostag, 3rd prime post-Fulcrum.
