</aside>

• Cole runs off to chase Iriskree Harrowhill yelling ‘assassin’ after knocking Vlad to the ground. Once the party catches up to Cole and Iriskee they are in the ‘The Happy Scrimshander’. A stand off commences until it is revealed that Iriskee and Cole know one another. All stand down and discuss the situation. Iriskee also trained as an assassin with Cole and thought she was going to kill her, so she responded first. Now cooler heads prevail, Iriskee provides the party with some background information and some potions; the party is sworn not to reveal her secret identity. Iriskee informs the party she has left the assassin’s group (Xanathar) and is hiding out in LonelyWood. She is alarmed to discover that The Ebonheart may be in the Ten Towns.

• The scrimshaw store used to be owned by Brien Freekin. He was a bit of a bastard but Iriskree Harrowhill married him anyway. He got sick on his wedding day and died tragically three weeks later from the flux.

• Iriskree Harrowhill and The Ebonheart were rival assassins for the Xanathar seven years ago.

• Speaker Nimsy Huddle is spoken to regarding the White Moose. She offers the group 20 gp per person to hunt and kill the White Moose; the party needs to return with the head to claim the reward. If we return with the torso, we can get 10 gp from the butcher of LonelyWood. When asked about 💀 Rastafaerian the Frost Druid she only knows that she ‘lifts’ animals. She believes she uplifted some sort of creature in the lake, last spotted near Bremen by fisher folk. She believes she lives/resides in an old Elven tomb North East, out of LonelyWood. The Moose acts like a guard for 💀 Rastafaerian the Frost Druid .

• The party moves onto ‘The Lucky Liar’ to talk to lumberjacks and hunters who might have sightings of the Moose. Sightings occurred North East of LonelyWood, a couple of hours good walking. The Moose arose not long after some hunters killed a Bear, which then turned into a woman. The hunters burned the body and left the scene quickly; the hunters think the lady may have been a druid. The Moose roams the region NE of town and has very sharp antlers (pointed and edges).

• Upon leaving The Lucky Liar, our friends are taunted by Gygas but before he can be too annoying he is assassinated by Iriskee Harrowhill.

• Vlad shared his dream about a large rat with a transparent skull, which allowed its brain to be visible. He communicates with the rat which asks for help for the mind flayer’s crashed ship. Coordinates are provided and a warning to beware the Githyanki; creatures with yellow coloured skin who are the mortal enemy of mind flayers. They are concerned and need assistance as soon as possible. Future communication may be possible through dreaming again if the conditions are conducive.

Githyanki Warrior

• Started searching for White Moose; found normal moose, then attacked by a pair of spectres - Phil and Harvey Spector. Both dispatched quickly. We then met a nice Banshee who told us she had been evicted from her tomb by the Moose and Druid. We agreed to evict the Moose and Druid so the Banshee could find rest again. On the way to the Elven tomb the party met a rabbit called 💀 Thumper, who told the party he could show them how to get into the tomb quietly. The party followed the rabbit to and through the secret entrance of the tomb where in Thumper’s friends, the wolves and dire wolves, triggered an ambush on the party. The White Moose then showed up and attacked, followed by the enraged druid and a very nice looking shrubbery. Two ice storms flattened the party but Cole and Ben managed to reach and slay the druid. The resulting explosions awoke a mummy, who attempted to slay/rot Si Borg before being slain. We certainly got smacked around by this lot, but survived to fight another day!
• After the battle scene quietened, the Banshee showed up and explained how to operate a teleporter based on the moon cycle (Moon Groves) to move between Elven groves: Elven grove 1 (North) - LonelyWood, Elven grove 2 (South) - Bryn Shander, Elven grove 3 (East) - East of Ten Trail along the Spine of the World.
