I can go no further into the jail until I rid myself of this immobilizing fear that has so thoroughly gripped me.
Upon greeting Vesorianna again, she confessed her doubts that we would return. By assuring her of my solemn vow and honest character, she was much relieved and we were rewarded with knowledge of artifacts that she knew remained in the prison.
It was decided by all to seek out these treasures first, as they could aid us in the ladies quest.
My rapier came in quite handy as I made short work of a poltergeist using us as darting practice with filthy syringes.
Marcus made good use of one of the haunt siphons and now has a haunt explosive to use against future threats. Min was quite fascinated with the item and I hope we all don’t suffer injury from his curiosity!
We are now gathering in the holding room where former prisoners were relieved of their worldly goods. It was quite thrilling to discover a few valuable and interesting items still intact after so many years.
Our Little Min also uncovered a secret stash that was kept separate from the majority of the items.
It is among these seemingly common pieces that cause my brain to be confounded and my breath to become ragged.
Little Min handed out each of these items and a mental list partially started to form:
1. A blood stained hand ax
2. A gold torque filled with multiple holy symbols
3. A moldy spell book
4. A smith’s hammer, which I believe belonged to The Mosswater Marauder
5. A tarnished silver flute
The silver flute is identical to the one I heard in my dream. The nightmare that still niggles my conscience. I can still feel the stirges attach and am reminded of their viciousness every time I glance at the angry red marks still on my arms.
I must pull myself together before we move on. The others depend on my amazing abilities to get us through any heinous obstacle we have yet to face.
