A dinner gone bloody...

The companions make their way back to Hilltown. The town has grown substantially since last they were back. Delvin's Barn is filled with new massive horses, Sprock''s workshop next door, is still under construction... The Wyrmwood Inn which forever ago the group helped Gertrude build is thriving. She greats them enthusiastically and summons her staff to prepare a major feast. All is well and the group finally feels a sense of relief. They delivered Sura's baby home, saved their friends soul from Hell, and became luxury ship owners... life is good.

Before the blood pudding could be served, the door slams open and men in chain mail and armed to teeth start firing cross bows at the group. A great battle in the Wyrmwood Inn is about to go down!

Thunk almost dies, one guy runs away and Clyde follows after him into the streets and eventually knocks him out and drags him back, only the squire. They leave the last guy barely alive. The Interrogation begins....

Ride by Attack!

The group heads out of Diamond bed city to make their way back to Evonmar. Their quest is to save their friend Panarus back from the depths of Hell!

Halfway through the journey, they are ambushed by a band of orcs. Rather then parlay or engage, they ride faster. Fyorn and Thunk cast spells at the orcs killing most as they ride by. The arrows and spears hurled at the war cart do nothing, money well spent...

They arrive in Evonmar and speak to all of the high Clerics. They retrieve Panarus's body (on ice) and the Clerics prepare a ritual to send back to hell.

They arrive in a strange place with swirling mists and limited visibility. They are attacked by shrieking ghosts of some kind but manage to keep them at bay as Panarus' body violently flails around as his soul transitions back into his body. 

Panarus is back, but the group quickly realizes that Koa (the spirit walker) is gone. When they speak to Panarus and mention Koa, they find out that it was his imaginary friend as a boy and shows them his children's toy he always keeps with him. It is Koa indeed with fiery wings. The spirit walker (maybe Panarus' guardian angel) is all but a small figurine. 

They head back to Zearth leaving Hell behind. 

The group mounts up and heads back to Hilltown. It has been a long time since they have been back home for most. 

The Journey home

The group arrives at Squint-town. After the ship crew has headed to town, Jin gets the word through his coins to take out the captain. He (captain) is found trying to create new glyph's & wards to summon more demons on the ship. Jin kills the captain and with no one on board to hear any screams, sneaks out quietly.

Jin and the group meet up at a tavern and compare notes. Just then, several large demons (most likely pit fiends) attack the ship and set it aflame. They fly off only after confirming it is destroyed.

Late in the night, a Very Large ship arrives (The Xavier). The crew and passengers head into town. The captain has a few drinks with Clyde and eventually confesses that he hated his life & sells the group the Xavier only if they make it a point to throw all of his current rich passengers belongings overboard so he can watch!

The group, along with their crew from the previous ship head out on their Grande new vessel "The Xavier". The previous crew agree to take the ride with them to Diamond bed city and show everyone the ropes on how to man the ship properly. 

They arrive back in Diamond bed city. They hire a captain (Octavior Desaclyse) and a 1/2 orc security officer (Goodock Greenburr "goodie") and a Madame (Ellousa Diavalia) and her 8 maidens (previous prostitutes eager for a new life).

Sprock greets them warmly and immediately gets to work on modifying the ship to handle the war cart and the groups other animals (including a hatch for the Wyvern to get out and fly and fish each day to keep his wings strong). 

They spend some time in the city. Delvin reunites with his father and all is well. Jin does some real-estate shopping and Fyorn checks the great library for new spells. The rest of the group does some shopping.

They mount up onto their war cart (joined by the witch and her daughter) to take the journey back to Evonmar.
