- During morning repast, Adrian Bryant of the Church of Storms sent to Arnari Rilynn’sithek for Freelancer help to fend off an attack. Ondar Thundercaller, Glesni Bōhatei, Osric Torunn, Nix Frostshaper, Kaelani, and Kaikoa accompanied Arnari.
- Upon arrival in the courtyard, the Freelancers found Waiola Vaina, the Typhoon, under attack by her own Storm Guard, thanks to two Daystar cultists.
- Adrian was injured, but asked Arnari to help him dispell the glamour on the Storm Guard while the other Freelancers pursue the Daystar cultists into the dungeon to prevent them from freeing others of their cult.
- As the pursuing Freelancers entered the building, a bright beam of light struck the melee, killing many.
- The Freelancers encountered the Daystar cultists and were overpowered. Two "Daystar elementals" engaged the Freelancers' attention while Ethan, Gillian, and Petersen were rescued by these two other cultists. All of the cultists teleported out. A seeking arrow from Glesni showed they hadn't gone too far.
- The sunburned Freelancers ran back up to the courtyard to discover the battle within was mostly done. The Daystar cultists were nowhere in sight, and those who could heal helped with the injured, including Arnari. Some of the Storm Guard remained suborned.
- Piecing together what happened, the Freelancers found that two Daystar cultists had cast mass suggestion on half the Storm Guard to kill Waiola, then stunned her and stole her javelin, Bright Thunder. They had slain two of their own to spawn the "Daystar elementals".
- Waiola paid the Freelancers 15 stars each, then offered the group that had accompanied Armari 750 eagles each to retrieve Bright Thunder and slay the escapees. Adrian gave them 4 bottles of holy water as well, in case that would help against the unnatural elementals.
- Glesni used a raven animal messenger to exchange messages with Tomtom, let him know what had happened, and determined the Freelancers Tavern is doing well.
- At Kaikoa's urging, the Freelancers searched in the direction of Glesni's seeking arrow and realized the Daystar cultists had gone to the docks. They split up to question the Dockmaster and a likely-looking dockworker, and determined the Daystar cultists had departed on a ship headed for Waypoint Whim.
- The Freelancers secured passage to Waypoint Whim on the Aakshi, which does not depart until this evening. They returned to Church of Storms, where Waiola agreed to pay for travel and issued them a Church of Storms badge in case anything untoward happens during the mission.
- Returned to Freelancers Tavern same morning and reported in.
