We meet the Baronesses' retainer John who confirms that the daughter in law, is indeed wicked practicing foul habits including magic and dancing naked through the hills... we agree immediately to take the job on hearing the latter heinous crime, in fact forget to even inquire what the pay will be... Its all politics and the plan is to replace the dancing daughter in law with the Baronesses second son, her first son having perished nobly & alone without significant retainers while facing down 200 orc's about to bust through a castle breach. There is no open hostility between the two women, but if my knowledge of womenfolk is any good are glaring at each other like two cats in the same yard. The daughter in law is apparently an ex "adventuress", which to mother-in-law no doubt has only one possible meaning..... Quentin - not only an orc but also a milk drinking woman fearing Holy Roller to boot, is against my advice elected party leader - last adventure Lady Nicola, lovely lass but a damned pre-Raphaelite held this role & it caused all manner of problems in conducting legalised banditry for some other noble lady.

After obtaining heavily discounted greater enchantments from the guild, not that I need one of course - it was more by way of reassurance for the others, Boris the Orc & I head out for a departure feast - to toast our gods, feast on large chunks of roasted meat, tell lies about our daring and meet the local lasses who are suitably impressed & enamoured by our daring. Quentin, Horton and the easily impressed Ignis a new adventurer and already picking up bad habits are off to get an early night, drink a cup of warm milk & kneel to say their prayers. It wont do them any good! As I sip the first icy ale
