Five of us arrived at the Fortune Tellers house, it was gaudy and over decorated, not to my tastes a all. She was all show, used Harrow cards to get in contact with us. It seems she too has a beef with Gaedren, all of us do. There was Bryce, clearly has a high opinion of himself, trying to get back a life he has lost. Says he’s good with magic. Kiel wants revenge for his lost leg, looks to be a street rat, how he manages to stay quiet with that peg hitting the ground I don’t know. The ex-caravan guard, Valezria, admitted to some hard drug problems which she blames Lamm for (not her own issues with self-control, I’ve used plenty of drugs and never had addiction problems). Then there was Do Quyne, I haven’t worked her out yet, she’s religious thats for sure but I need to get a good look at her holy symbol. She claims to be in this for justice and honour, but there’s something personal there, otherwise I don’t think the fortune teller would have bought her here. And then of course there was me, seeking my vengeance for what Lamm did to Jennifer.
The fortune teller (once I work out her tricks I’ll stop calling her that, divine inspiration maybe? arcane magics passed onto her by some patron?) did a reading for us but it didn’t seem to say much. The problem with these harrow cards is they are meant to be vague, it lets the reader tell the listener whatever they want to here. (Maybe thats her game? Telepathy, she reads peoples minds then gives them the fortune they want.)
Anyway, I’m off track, she knew where Lamm was hold up, some fishery on the west pier he’s using as a ‘legitimate’ buisness front. We all agreed that we should go check the place out and left immediately. Upon arriving the sneak thief went to check the windows didn’t see “anything but children”, the idiot, gnomes aren’t that hard to spot… We tried to pose as businessmen, Bryce has a sharp tongue and we almost managed it. Until Kjell got recognised. The fight was short and none of us got hurt it seemed, I even managed to put a bullet between the eyes of a charging guard dog.
After tying up Lamm’s “accountant” and learning that our target was beneath the fishery, we headed down the stairs. Another brief fight, this time with a half-orc who would not stop laughing. There’s a hole in the floor, clearly leads down into a basement or cave system under the fishery. If the accountant was right, Lamm is down there… and I’m going to kill him…
