Gulston carefully examined the medal. It had a well carved symbol, but was blank on the other side.
"Brass, but that's all that I'm able tell you about it. I'll see if I can find an appraiser in Geham to closely inspect it", he said, "Take their weapons, they might fetch us a good amount of coin."
Gulston dragged the corpses from the road and tossed them into the bushes.
"That takes care of that", he said as he stretched, then turned towards Narsila: "Going to Connin? Haven't you heard what happened over there?"

- The town was destroyed by it's own residents- Zayl said, standing up from the headless corpse. - Not willingly though. We- Zayl meant this as the whole group that's returning from Connin- may have deducted, that it was on an account of a powerful coven of soulmancers.

- No. We,- Zayl now referred to himself- have never dabbled in that branch of magic. We seek more... Sophisticated knowledge. Say, by chance, aren't you of House Victoalia? - He asked raising his eyebrow.

The captain returned to Amanda. He told the following:
"Now that I told the general about the attack, he has decided some soldiers to come there and watch over the town. In due time, the town will be rebuilt, but most likely after the war is over. For now, the soldiers will redirect people like those sailors to Fort Geham."
"That makes sense. Oh, what about Sylvia?"
"As for Sylvia, it has been said they don't have the manpower to search around for her. But it is said if they were to find her lurking around towns, they will be certain to arrest her."
Amanda was glad. She gazed at the sun and felt hope she'll pay her crimes. "Good. Now, where are we headed?"
"Connin. Let's meet up with Logan there, first."
"Nice. I am supposed to deliver this box to a shrine, close to the town. An old lady gave it to me."
"I'd be careful if I were you. There could be spies around, and you can't know if this could be some sort of a trap." the captain looked around the camp, trying to find any suspicious people.
Regardless, the captain and Amanda saddled up their horses and went away. Amanda stroked Schwarz, bearing in mind the truth that has been revealed.

Missy has been circling Zayl during this exchange, eyeing him curiously. Finally she stopped in front of him, looked up into his icy eyes and said:
"Why do you sound like two people? *gasp* Are you one of those ventilators that perform with talking puppets?!"

Zayl was genuinely amused by Missy's question. He laughed heartily.
- No we're not one those mummers that entertain people in market squares.- He said to the Haaz child.- We are something... entirely different. From all of you.

"Owwwww...." Missy sounded very disappointed lowering her head for a moment, but immediately springing back up to her usual self and smiled. "That's ok! I like you anyway, misters Wrinkly Face!"

Using shortcuts, some of which were quite narrow and looked like they could encounter an ambush, Amanda and the captain arrived to the ruins of Connin. They headed straight to the docks, where they found Logan.
"But you no go around. It not safe out there. Too dang-er-us. Wait for-" before he could continue, Logan saw the captain and Amanda.
"Thank you, Logan, for keeping those sailors some company." Amanda praised Logan, who bowed to her.
"What about us? Are we supposed to wait here? The sooner I deliver these goods, the less I smell this god-forsaken town." the leader of the sailors spat down, as the wind blew around the docks.
"Know that the army will be here in a few moments. Please be patient a bit, the Karston army doesn't want you to die around here." the captain waved his hand.
"Fine. I will complain about this at the office, however." the leader walked away and sat down with the sailors.
"We should head out to the shrine. I have this box to deliver." Amanda shows the box, which was oddly designed, being black with strange curves about it.
"Then let me join, missus Amanda." Logan ascended on his horse, as the trio went to the shrine.

- That would probably be a good idea, but first we got to bring back what we found in the port town, to the pompous cretins that run this miitary.- Zayl said as he tossed some of the loot back into the cart that brought them here.
- And let's hope that we can get something better than half aged vinegar that they're so fond of in this place- He said taking a seat.
- Let's not keep the "commanders" waiting.- Zayl said to his companions.- That report will not deliver itself.

The trio walked to the temple. It was fairly damaged, and the wind blew through the holes of the walls, but the shrine was left intact.
Amanda walked to the shrine, but commented: "I don't see why would this box protect the people. If it is some sort of an offering to the gods, well, I say screw them."
The captain was shocked. "Even if this place is in ruins, you are desecrating it with your own words."
"Well, I just don't believe in the gods. I believe the nature is the source of our powers and the gods are just our imagination and just fiction. Besides, would the gods you worship allow this kind of atrocity?"
"It's much more complicated than you think. Know that having some faith means another reason to fight for your ideals." the captain replied. "Since you aren't exactly the faith-like type, you'd better give this to Logan."
"Who, me?" Logan was curious.
"Yes, you do seem like a priestly type, being an adept at Soul Magic."
"Oh, ya. I am good. Give me dat box."
"Whatever." Amanda gives Logan the box, who goes at the altar and starts praying.
"Oh, great good-dess Ava, hear our words. We, the people, ask for your powers and lend them to 'dis town. Touch this place with da divine power and protect it."
"Huh, Logan actually managed to make some basic sense this time." Amanda was impressed, seeing Logan's grammar improved.
Logan touched the box, which activated and sucked him in. Amanda gasped.
"This was a trap. I should've known taking mysterious objects was a threat to us all." the captain tried to hide his frightened face.
"Look, there is something else." Amanda points at the box, which transforms into a figure.
"Mister captain." the figure bowed down and revealed herself to be Sylvia. "You can see that I have consumed Amanda. That was all I wanted to ask for. Now, if you seek the lives of the two men, Aster and Vladik, come meet me at this point." The image turns into a map, marked by an X; they'd have to sail off on a boat. The image shifts back into Sylvia. "And do not bring your army, either, unless you wish your men never to be seen again. Good day to you."
The image fades, while Amanda and the captain feel the eerie wind passing through. "It is obvious she will learn that she obtained Logan, rather than me. But I will not let her just pass by unpunished." Amanda clenches her fist and raises in the air, swearing to find Sylvia.

The ride back to the fort went smoothly, without any further interruptions. There were more guards up on the wall than usual this time around.
Upon reaching the stables, Gulston got off the cart.
"Let's head over to the inn and report what we found tomorrow; agreed?"

((since nobody seems to be posting I'll just fast-forward to the next day))
A new day has dawned and with it more commotion outside. Gulston slipped out of bed and looked through the window of his room. He saw a mob outside the Keep -peasants with torches and pitchforks in their hands- and a handful of guards holding them off.
"What in the world is happening now?" he thought to himself before heading down to the counter to get some breakfast and wait for Zayl to show up.

Yesterday, Amanda and the captain gathered the soldiers, who watched over the town, as some of the villagers came to pay their respects and try to find anything in the rubble. Since the town was razed to the ground, it wasn't long before the people established an outpost from the last remaining buildings. A thorough search yielded some scrolls and books, which Amanda studied. Most of it was about the Karston army, the geography of the island and about ships. However, Amanda took a few spell scrolls among them.
The following day, the general permitted them to find Sylvia. A ship sailed towards the ruins of Connin, on which Amanda, the captain and a handful of soldiers sailed off to the eastern islands, where Sylvia told them to sail to.
While sailing, Amanda was studying the scrolls when the captain approached her.
"We are going to a small town named Vint Rock. It's a comfortable place, or so I am told." the captain tried to use the spyglass to see the island, but nothing was on the horizon.
"Sounds like a good place to rest, after the war is over." Amanda imagined her own luxurious place on the island. "Well, anything to get away from that destroyed town. Regardless, how will we deal with Sylvia?"
The captain frowned. "There is no clear plan. The only thing we can do is to post the soldiers into hiding, while we deal with her. I just hope whatever she wants for the soldiers isn't too drastic."
"Well, I'll continue studying these scrolls. It won't hurt to check what the island has to offer, either." Amanda took a deep breath of the sea air she likes.

Zayl walked down the stairs of the inn.
He sat by Gulston and ordered some breakfast.
- Looks like the peasantry is growing restless. We guess they've heard what happened at the port town- He said as he poured some water into a goblet.
