Summary 4/17/22
Just a quick side note here: these first few summaries were initially written as extremely brief play-session recaps for our group chat, BEFORE i started this as an actual story and blog. Please keep that in mind.
We opened to see Thonk running after the meat venders as Ari and Rea tracked the Gnoll trash collector into the well. As they were peering down the well deciding what to do, they were caught by a constable "What's all this then!" Ari manages to slink unnoticed into the shadows but Rea is hauled off for questioning at the constabulary. What will happen to our sweet innocent monk? Well we ever see them again? Well they get prison hard? Well I stop making well jokes?!
Meanwhile Cypress is coming to town! Just outside the city gates they FOLLOW THEIR NOSE to a small aarakocra vender and get for loopy fruits.
Ari gets pickpocketed by a kid, catches them, and gets pickpocketed again! While chasing the kid to give them a kicking and some advice they run headlong into Sorin.
Introducing Sorin! A nerdy young mage studying at the school who gets a little woozy over pretty girls.
Cypress finds a Woodley math and learns of The Royal Menagerie traveling with the circus. They see some interesting creatures and learn some new facts about them. Boy I sure hope those got written down cause they just might be useful. Cypress also learns about the interesting history of the flying snake which is a symbol of the city itself and has a short moral battle over stealing some snakeskin.
Sorin buys a mysterious urn with his hard earned money from a very interesting vender. Ari manages to pickpocket someone herself only getting caught by Sorin who can't seem to look away. With Sorin's help Ari learns about the observatory tower at the edge of the school grounds and goes there to try to swipe from the rich to give to herself. But oh know, in his daze over the pretty girl Sorin forgot to mention that the observatory tower is right across the street from the tower of the constabulary...
Cypress makes their way to town and walks in the gates and registers their mace. The police seem especially interested in the weapon and make a charcoal rubbing of it. What is up with these cops?
Ari is quickly discovered "WHATS ALL THIS THEN!" Pickpocketing and is hauled off for questioning with Sorin unsure what to do now?
Will Ari and Rea reunite and start a prison gang? Will Cypress find better cereal? Will Sorin see the pretty girl again before she gets covered in prison tats? Find out this week!! (Saturday hopefully???)
