  • Minji, Dominic Holyarm, Maghris Bloomfield the 18th, Aranel Dumas-Nemaren, Damian Galanis, and Colt Cunningham were dispatched by Arnari Rilynn’sithek on the mission from Wymar Adelard to raid the press gang staging area, freeing any captives and capturing the bard who appeared to be running the operation. 
  • Evvie, Laki, and Aleki had been posted to keep watch on the place for third watch and were relieved by this group.
  • After the Freelancers scoped the area, Aranel cast unseen servant inside the doors, and had it unlock the doors.  As a distraction, she told it to open as many doors as it could find.
  • Dominic wild shaped a spider to scout the cellar, and confirmed to Aranel via message there were 9 people from the press gang present, including the bard they wanted to capture.
  • The Freelancers entered and a difficult melee ensued, because the noise made by the unseen servant alerted the press gang to imminent attack.
  • Colt, Dominic, and Damian were badly injured in the melee, during which the bard and two compatriots fled.  The Freelancers learned his name was Helias.
  • One of the remaining press gang surrendered, and one perished; the Freelancers freed ten captives and stabilized four press gang they'd struck down.
  • After the melee the freed captives were sent to Wymar Adelard, and the Freelancers gathered what paperwork they could and brought back to Arnari.
  • Since the main objective of capturing Helias was not met, Arnari only paid 90 eagles for the fee, withholding the Freelancers Cut and the expected extra for capturing Helias.
  • Returned to Freelancers Tavern same day.
Loot
  • Mission pay: 100 eagles (10% to Freelancers)
