Scribe Notes
Day 30
We meet in a guild meeting room 30 days into the season. Cassandra is looking for people to go to a party , which has bad omens.
We have an appointment at 'la Grenoille' Manor (its something Uncle Sebastian remembers from his youth) at 6pm , heading to Arns ferry an old lady gives us directions to the manor. There is a portal due to open at 6pm
Stepping through the portal we arrive in a room with an uncovered mirror, with runes . There is a mad (long term creeping senility) uncle in the room playing chess with a revanant. Introductions are made he is Sebastian and one of his uncles is an Amir. He tells us he is 58, he is a long lived sentient. He takes clarity pills that Klara knwos about and has given him to stay 'sane'.
Day 1 Harvest
Dawns stormy but the food is good. Sebastian has two female servants Alicia and Vermelda who help him with day to day tasks. Today we expect to travel with a caravan however the weather may have other plans and the weather causes the caravan to be delayed. We pass the day spending money at the bazaar
Day 2 Harvest
The day downs with better weather and 8am sees us all at the Sukhoty Caravanserai and starting the journey to Castle Montfychet. We start to get to know our fellow travellers.
