-=== Recap (starting 16 October 1111) ===

-  * After defeating the Vanguard of Sertrous at Castle Serastis, Zoldathra kicks them out (granting them the promised “safe passage”).
+=== October 1111 ===
-  * The party gathers the slave community together, heals them as best they can, and escorts them toward civilization.
-  * The party encounters a small army of mercenaries (under contract from [[Kevin Arcana]]) heading toward Castle Serastis.
-  * [[Allie]] (and perhaps others) return the King's bones to the Barrow near [[Kingsholm]].
-  * Some (or all) of the party visit [[Kevin Arcana]] to understand his role in this affair.
-  * A trip to [[Southbay]] occurs – where much trading occurs.
-  * Everybody returns home to rest and recuperate – during which time several months pass (mostly) uneventfully.
-=== Sometime in 1112 ===
+The party meet [[Kevin Arcana]], who asks if they were "responsible" for the
+following letter:
-//TBD//
+| //The Esteemed Wizard Kevin Arcana,\\ \\ As I write this, a small group of highly skilled and courageous men and women are opposing\\ an abyssal force at the castle Serastis, not far from your present location.\\ \\ While you may not know the name, I am sure you are familiar with the place.  Within its\\ walls are a series of teleport gates that I am sure greatly interest you and will perhaps aid\\ your research and understanding of your new business.\\ \\ While my divinations have shown that these courageous individuals will succeed in their\\ endeavor, they will likely leave the castle intact and functional.  It is, to be blunt, yours for\\ the taking – assuming you are willing to invest the appropriate military resources to clear\\ out the remaining inhabitants.\\ \\ Of course, I understand that a businessman such as you requires more than the word of an\\ unknown agent in order to make such an investment.  That is why I am sending a similar\\ letter to Baroness Karoline.  I, personally, do not care which of you two seizes the castle.  I just\\ require that someone do so as soon as possible.\\ \\ Guarding the place is a small contingent of Yuan-Ti ("snake men").  They have at their\\ disposal poison, magic, superior strength, and a variety of arms.  I recommend that a force of your\\ "Arcane Defenders" numbering 300 would be sufficient to take the castle with minimal\\ losses.\\ \\ You must act soon, though!  Both to beat your competition and to ensure the Yuan-Ti do not\\ have the time to regroup and fortify their defenses.\\ \\ May the gods shine on your days.\\ //  |

+=== 29 October 1111 ===
+The party attends //Creation Day// ceremonies in [[Kingsholm]], where they
+participate in a ceremony to return the King's bones to his Barrow.
+They find themselves the toast of the town!
+=== 18 July 1112 ===
+[[Heilli]] receives a letter...
+| //My friends,\\ \\ I apologize for my lack of communication.  And I further apologize for making my first\\ direct request of you at arms length.  Soon, I assure you, we will have the opportunity to meet\\ face to face.\\ \\ Until then, my divinations have revealed trouble in the heart of Southbay.  Deep in the city, a\\ force is making a move that threatens to unbend the plot I have been guiding these past\\ years.\\ \\ You must travel to the house of Asheron Coyl – 11 Vermillion Way in the Ivy District.  There\\ you will find a mystery – the likes of which I am unable to discern.  Whatever you find, you\\ must follow it to its end!\\ \\ The Vanguard are ended!  The House has fled to the marsh!  But our quest is still ongoing!\\ \\ May the gods shine on your days so that the coming darkness will be burned by the fires of\\ a new morning!\\ //  |

+He brings the party together (all except [[Freyrik]] -- who is already in
+[[Southbay]]).
+=== 19 July 1112 ===
+Head toward [[Southbay]]...
+=== 20 July 1112 ===
+As they arrive in the city, [[Líkami]] heads off to find [[Freyrik]], while the
+others proceed to the home of Asheron Coyl.
+They arrive to find the man murdered by a pair of enormous land-bound Octopuses,
+who are in the process of tearing the home apart.  After a prolonged (and
+dangerous) battle, the creatures are destroyed -- revealing their true origin.
+They were magical constructs made of paint.
+Clearly, they have found their "mystery"...
