Session 2: Thunder, Lighting and Flash
Month 7, Day 19, Year 757
The Baker's Dozen steal "Pestle" from Thunder, Lighting and Flash. In return for its recovery the priests of Trim entreat their god to lift his curse on their stolen items. Trim taunts the brothers casting their suspicion far from human thieves.
The Contract (The Baker's Dozen)
A talented pickpocket, though not quite as skilled as B.F. slips a sealed note onto his person. The small figure goes bouncing off aping the gait of a halfling playing the human child but, his ungainly gait and earthly odor betray his gnomish nature.
"Friends," the note begins. "Your service to the revolution is now known to all in our movement making you heroes to us. The service of heroes is needed once more. We have secured a human scribe amenable to the task we now ask you to complete. Deliver this scribe to the Hall of Records so she may copy the 'Articles of Liberation,' the treaty that binds my people in servitude."

"Miss Elsa Ariza, awaits you nightly at 'The Wilted Quill.' She has been told only that she is to trust in 2 dwarves in the company of a halfling and three humans. The completion of this task is of utmost importance to our cause and the timing at your discretion."
The Hall of Records is a highly guarded building located in the heart of the city, adjacent to the Senate. It houses all of the important Imperial documents, histories and lineages.
Kobblestone offers a reward of 500 gold pieces for the successful completion of this task, stressing the fact that he has actual gold coins.

The Heralds of Ikoros (The Baker's Dozen)
Another dreary day of watching baked goods cool drags on as people hurry by without stopping in. It seems the underworld is far faster to forgive than the average citizen. So when the bell on the door finally rings Una springs joyfully to her feet.
"Three white robed figures enter the Bakery. Two begin to shop mechanically as if distracting from their true purpose. The third draws back his hood and approaches you directly. My master has need of his heralds once again. Please join our prayers this night. I believe you know where the master gathers. Praise be to Ikoros."
That night you gather and return to the graveyard where the figure of Ikoros clad in his voluminous night-blue robes hovers over his white-robed flock leading them in a solemn closing prayer. The group disbands in twos and threes. Ikoros beckons you to him taking care that his servants are far enough off not to overhear.
"My heralds, its good to see you once again. I have long studied the whispering scroll of Grazz't, the same that you recovered for me last month. It begins to reveal its secrets and I have need of your services once more. The demon has sent thieves of his own to steal 'The Tears of Eos' from the goddess' temple. Prevent this theft at all costs. If you can, discover their patron's identity and report back to me."
The theft is supposed to occur within the next 48 hours and Ikoros offers 160 gold pieces for its prevention.
