Leaving behind their experience against the dark specters, our heroes continue to battle their way through the sewers. Olgrim figures out why multiplication can be dangerous on their way to the heart of the rats' nest where Avius and Puck shine. After leaving the sewers and recuperating at Middle Hawks inn, the heroes attend a faire where Olgrim and Puck get slathered in mud. The bard, Vakeer, drops by and shares some rumors going around the city. Elmon and Puck enjoy one of their favorite games before the group runs into a priest of Lothien they've seen before.
