Durnivir fucked off We head back to charles to report As we approach the barracks, we hear something about a speech happening Something about the assassin being found Also B'Rock savages some pigeons and scars some children
Atop a makeshift stand, we see the three remaining nealonus guards along with Charles All the other guards nearby too Charles appears from the barracks, wearing full plate, ceremonial Spots us all as he begins speaking with Thaumaturgy He and the guard have found the assassin of the mayor A beaten up wood elf is dragged out before the crowd Male, short, middle-aged for a wood-elf, in cuffs made of silver Behind the prisoner is another guard carrying an execution block
Charles brings out a medallion associated with Tarloc, the fist punching through the crown Explains the symbol as belonging to a dangerous man gathering power Mentions that some of the men gathering under him are cursed Vanedir hands over the pendant via the guards at this point Charles adjusts his explanation of what the wood elf is Using the talisman, he turns the prisoner into a wereboar The beam of light of the talisman stops them momentarily as it begins to shift
Charles continues briefly before decapitating the wereboar, and finishing the speech
James gives Rob the idea to have wererats riding crocodiles by calling them floridamen
We hear a commotion, then see an arrow sticking out of his shield, then many more swerving as they approach him to stick in the shield Charles saw many of the attackers, a tabaxi, a loxodon, an air genasi, and a gnome The guards jump into action, dogpiling the gnome, the air genasi, and the loxodon We see two dead guards and chase that direction to find the tabaxi We run into a badly injured guard, heal him, get directions, and continue We encounter a weretiger being faced down by 4 guards, one injured, 2 weary, and 1 fine.
