After 3 days in the Rod of Security, Tal and [[Ishtar]] come out, now that the airship has landed near the lake.
Tal senses something on the ship that night, but it fades after a few moments.
Party goes to sleep. Tal has a slightly rough night sleep.
—long rest—
In the early morning, Rose’s new character approaches the airship. [[Ishtar]]’s bear spots him. He says he’s looking for a Tiefling with a crown. After being feared by [[Jaezred]]’s aura, everyone gets back together on the airship. The harengon introduces himself as [[Torch]]. He explains that he was hired by some strange women to kill Felicia. The group agrees to work together, saying that he’s welcome to any proof of death he needs to collect. The group attempts to plan. It is agreed to split up in the hills and wait to ambush the caravan. After about half an hour of waiting, the caravan starts to get within range. The party tries to stay hidden and wait until the caravan gets into a good position, but [[Torch]] fails a Stealth and Felicia sees him. He tries to lead the caravan into the center of the map. [[Jaezred]] runs up and uses Lightning Bolt on a group. Someone uses Hellish Rebuke on him. Lizardfolk show up. [[Torch]] throws a Bead of Force at the group rushing him. A few of the kobolds and mounts get trapped in it, and a bunch of the others get pushed away. Tal drops a tidal wave on that bunch and knocks out Felicia. A dragonborn cleric of Tiamat heals Felicia and another one heals another Tiefling. [[Torch]] snares a few dragonborn in another bead. A kobold yells that they’re just here for [[Coyra]] and the dagger. [[Torch]] beads Felicia. Tal downs the glamour bard. The wyrmling downs a Tiamat cleric. But a bunch of clerics do healing and it looks like no one is staying down (other than a few horses).
