Session 2

Kenku Ambush!
Heroes: Cade, Drageth, Finn, Jorg, Psol

The party leaves Old Xoblob Shop, and proceed to the Skewered Dragon. The tavern is a ruin, and its patrons are all thugs and criminals. The Heroes ask a few questions around, still searching for Floon. After an "interesting" round of Three-Dragon-Ante, the party is directed to a warehouse on Candle Lane.

When the party reaches the warehouse, they pick the lock to the main door, and enter. Inside they find four kenku (raven-folk) ready to ambush them. They defeat the kenku and capture one. Following a short interrogation, they notice several corpses littering the floor of the warehouse, both Myriad's and Xanathar's thugs. It seems they have arrived not long after a fight between the two gangs.

They also discover a young man imprisoned in a storage room. This is Renaer Neverember, son of the former Open Lord of Porta Damali, and a good friend of Floon. Renaer recounts what he knows:

"The Myriad thinks that my father embezzled a large amount of gold while he was Open Lord, and that he hid the dragons somewhere in the city. They think they can find it by using an artifact called the Stone of Golorr, which was in the hands of the Xanathar Guild until recently. Apparently, someone stole it. The Myriad thought I knew something about all of this, but I don't. My father and I haven't spoken in years."

He fears Floon was abducted by the Xanathar due to his resemblance to Renaer. He has overheard that the Xanathar brought him somewhere in the sewers. 

While the PCs discuss things with Ranear, the City Watch arrives on the scene, led by Captain Hyustus Staget. Thanks to the presence of the nobleman the party is let go with a warning to not interfere further with the official business of the Watch. The party retires for the night, planning their explorations of the sewers.
