"You would suggest I divide my effort and risk compromising my performance?!", 'Elepaio said in an incredulous tone.

- Just do whatever seems necessary to you. - Domerth replied to 'Elepaio. He unrolled one of the maps on the table and began examining it. Garnet is going to be their next big stop. The straightest road to it, lead through one of the biggest groves in the North, called the Blackness by the locals. Domerth heard a lot of interesting tales surrounding this particular forest. And not good ones for that matter.

Finding a small inn, Larkas goes inside. There are many tough-looking people, mostly sailors and the like. A lot of tables were occupied already.
- Larkas goes to the bar. Recalling what he read in books, Larkas orders: "One rum, please."
- The bartender eyes him warily. "An outcomer, ye?"
- "Aye, this is my first visit to this town. And, oh boy, I had a lot of adventures!"
- "Eh? Just how tough are ye?"
- "Recently, me and my fellows have encountered a wyvern. Let us just say the wyvern's head fell off."
- "A group effort, hummm." the bartender starts grumbling.
- "That's nothing. I hear the ol' Harold even fought a squid monster and even pierced its eye." one of the sailors comment.
- "Yeah, well, not all of us are old." Larkas replies and continues telling the tales.

- Heh, you're a boastful lad, aren't ya? - An burly, old orc who sat near Larkas spoke to him. He had a weathered face, a lenghty beard, tied into many braids, decorated with intricately carved fourhorn ivory beads and beard rings, as well as several scars on his torso, that showed through the neckline of his plain linen shirt.
- Me and some of my boys were escorting some merchant folk from Garnet, through the Blackness. That's the huge forest up north from Sapphire.- He continued to speak.- It's never been easy mind ya, though lately, some more trouble brews there. But it's the fastest route from Sapphire to Garnet and vice versa. And it pays well. YEt, now something more sinister is in these woods these days. I've lost five of my men on this trip. Not to mere beasts mind you, those are no problem for a soldier. I don't know what it was truly. Seemed like some sort of goatmen. Attacked out of nowhere, with some roughspun linen clad schyte wielding men. I've never seen such fanaticism in my life. If ya travelling out there, watch your back lad.

"Here's fer entering little man!" she said, throwing some coins on the bench. "Hope yer fighters ain't all pushovers like the last place, ye?"
Her first fight went without a hitch as she effortlessly smacked some whelp out of the ring to the cheer of the audience and she walked out, taking a quick rest before her next turn.

- "That does sound a unusual. Do these people look like cultists? Me an' my fellows ran into some before. But they never were that powerful." Larkas stops for a moment. It is very likely they will cross paths with this enemy. "Did you notice anything else about them? And when did all of this occur, anyway?"

- Aye. Cultists. That's the word. - The old orc said. - Some had a strange symbol painted on their robes, and the same was tattooed on most of them beastmen. An eye in a nine pointed star. They attacked us few days ago, before we were out of the Blackness. They attacked, we lost some good lads, but we fended them off. Not much to say, really, except for the ferocity they showed. Not one of them fled or yielded. Does this description math the foes you had ran into, lad?- the old orc said as he finished his drink.
Meanwhile, Magnus was entering the Black Whale tavern to observe the fights, as well as to bet on them. After getting himself a drink, he went to the bookies.
- 2 forint's on the fierce dryad lass with them antlers.- He said.
- You're sure? her next oponent hadn't lost a fight, he's the big brute of a half-orc there - The bookie pointed at the man.
- Aye, pretty sure. sign it. - The dwarf replied, handing him hte coin.
- As you wish friend. - he complied, moments before the announcer signalled for Bryn's next fight to begin.

- "Why, yes, it is." Larkas nods. "But they don't seem to be that powerful. Sounds like something else is giving them power."
- Larkas shakes off the dark feeling. "Anyway, onto other topics, are there any pirates around?"

She stepped into the ring sporting a cocky grin and faced a big half-orc.
"You ready to get your ass handed to ya?" she asked, punching the inside of her palm.
"HA! I haven't lost yet and I won't to you either" he smiled as he shook out his arms, relaxing them up.
She sprinted suddenly, rushing towards her opponent and aiming a hit at his gut which connected and he staggered back few steps but recovered and punched back. It, too connected to Brynhildr's shoulder and she staggered back as well. In response she took up her leg and gave a powerful kick but the half-orc managed to catch it and threw her on the floor.
"HAHA! You've got some power but it isn't enough to defeat me!"
Anger filled her vision and she kicked out at his ankle causing her opponent to fall and she got up, rushed over to him, kicked him in the stomach before straddling him to proceed to punch him in the face repeatedly. She was quickly pulled away by one of the organizers.

"Two Samann mages and a thief and I am the one looking for rumors", 'Elepaio rambled snidely.
She was reclined on a bench, her hat covering both her face and her increasingly inane commentary.
"I wonder if someone wanted to use this bench, only to see me hogging it. It really is an aptly placed bench. A VERY aptly placed bench."

- Don't know about pirates 'ere lad. Seafaring is not my business, I'm too old for it.- The old orc said.
Meanwhile at the Black Whale tavern the tourney kept going on, and after may brutal knock outs, Bryn found herself in the final fight. Her opponent was a member of the Iron Wyverns free company, a tall and broad man, rumored to be a quarter giant.
- All right you two - The referee said. - I want a clean fight, fist and foot only. - He said looking at Bryn, who had headbutted several of her opponents and knocked them out flat during the fights.

Having finished the drink and conversing with others a bit, Larkas exits the tavern. Thinking this could be his only opportunity, he takes a dive in the sea for a while.

- How do you keep beating me? - Nightshade said to Halfman after he had checkmated her.
Halfman put down his cup.
- Well, my dear, being born the way I am, I had never devoted much to phisycal activities, that my brothers did. You know, fencing, archery, that sort of thing. Which leaves a lot more time to sharpen ones wits. That is why my dear I excel at board games, as well as gambling. Amongst other things.
- Fair enough.- The sorceress said.- If you'll excuse me, I'm going to find that Agnirri mage of yours.
- By all means.
Halfman approached Orryth with a tome in his hands.
- Here is a copy of everything we know about the shaman of your kin. It's not very in depth, but at the same time, it's the best we have right now,as Kree is about a thousand leagues away. If you like, we can go run some basics of the art. I would in your stead refrain from summoning techniques. But if you progress well, we'll be getting to that fast.

- I was thinking we should go by the ocean on the morrow. First thing a Shaman needs to know, is how to call the elements to his aid.- Halfman said.- We'll start with attuning you to earth and water, since that's a plenty here. We'll go tommorow after breakfast.
Nightshade had found 'Elepaio sitting on one of the benches in the city, mumbling something under her nose.
- Here you are - She said. - Let's take a walk.

- I've done a little scrying. There's cult presence in town. You're going to help me get some of them to daylight. As well as getting him or her to talk, which would fulfil your task, that the Captain gave you. - The sorceress said. She took a black orb from her pouch. In it one could see lots of human like shapes, glowing various colors. In the center, was a purple one, indicating Nightshade, next to her a fiery orange one, indicating 'Elepaio. Most others were light azure in color. Save for one. one figure in the orb was glowing with dark red color.
- There's one. - Nightshade said while looking at the orb. Most likely snooping around, like we are.- The red figure in the orb started mowing away.
- Let's tail him. - Nightshade said to 'Elepaio.

- Have one of your spells ready, just in case - Nightshade said, as the duo were following the cultist. The man they tailed was dressed in the same manner as most of the visitors of the Freehold. He didn't seem to notice that he was followed. Thanks to Nightshade's orb, they didn't lost him in the masses of people roaming the city of Sapphire.
The man they tailed had stopped for a few times to listen to some rumours, many of whom were about the expedition coming to the Freehold.
After half an hour, he had led the two sorceresses to an inn, on the far side of the piers.
- Now we know where their nest is. Shall we bust in? - Nightshade asked as she put the orb away.

With nothing immediate to do at the moment, Orryth went out to comb the markets. Perhaps he might find something to buy, or maybe he might overhead some useful information while he was roaming around.
