	As the fireball faded and Morthos rushed to stabilize her companions, a dwarf stepped towards the evil sorceress Merriath and fired a guiding bolt at her - having recognized a 'bad un' when he saw one. In surprise, Merriath dropped the body of Kadra that she was carrying with difficulty and spun to face the dwarf, who quickly cast a spell of silence, hoping to prevent her from casting spells. Her eyes narrowed in anger at the impertinent dwarf, and in silence, her fingers flickered in fast and complex arcane patterns, as she cast a spell using meta-magic to avoid needing verbal components. With the hint of a smug smile, she faded from the dwarf's sight and turned to run. Despite being unable to see or hear her, the faint still-fading glimmer from his earlier Guiding Bolt spell gave the dwarf enough of an idea to swing his axe, and he, in turn, allowed a hint of a smile to grace his lips as he felt the axe strike something, and a spray of blood appeared.

	The group headed to Paumine's house, and Paumine invited the group inside. As they discussed how they might track down the evil sorcerer, Morthos came up with the idea of checking with ~~Basil~~ the Bizarre, since he would no doubt have what Merriath would need to perform her ritual. Drex, in the meantime, started the ritual to summon a new familiar, his previous one having been crisped by Merriath's fireball. Not wanting to watch, Mogadon headed to the inn where he took advantage of the generosity of the innkeeper Malaga Taerwain, who was putting refugees up for free on the floor of the taproom.

	After an hour of Drex's spellcasting, keenly watched by the curious Paumine, Kadra, and Morthos, a new familiar appeared - a tiny fire elemental stepping out of the burning flames in the fireplace, (much to the consternation of Paumine and Kadra) and, after leaving just a few scorch marks on the rug, transformed into a small monkey.

	Meanwhile, Mogadon woke early, made his prayers to his god, and then started to help the busy innkeeper Malaga Taerwain, using mending to help her with some of the maintenance issues around the inn. Upstairs, in their more luxurious room, Cormir and Drex awakened and wandered downstairs, where Mogadon asked them if they had a plan for how to pursue this rogue sorceress. While discussing their options, the three of them stepped out of the inn and headed across to the Bakery, where a tired-looking Phelm Barrister greeted them enthusiastically, confirmed that they were still planning to stay the night in the bakery and showed them the temporary cot beds off to one side he had set out for them in anticipation of their stay.

	After fetching Morthos, the four decided that the best course of action was to visit ~~Basil~~ the Bizarre, as Merriath would no doubt need fresh supplies if she wanted to perform her ritual again. As they arrived at the round house that doubled as ~~Basil~~'s Potion shop, they entered through the open door, claiming to be on council business in response to ~~Basil~~'s demands that the banned Drex leave. At the suggestion that an evil sorceress might be need to restock components so she could perform her ritual, ~~Basil~~ checked his stock and exclaimed that potions had definitely been stolen. He then also acted somewhat suspiciously, checking that some pieces of jewellery were hidden under his pillow.

	Morthos decided to try to use her Mage Hand spell to steal the items hidden under the pillow, but was not careful enough with her spell casting, and ~~Basil~~ flew into a rage. Cormir attempted to step between them, and when he realised ~~Basil~~ was definitely going to cast a spell, tried to punch the mage to disrupt his spell casting, but ~~Basil~~ seemed to anticipate the blow and just leaned out of the way, before screaming more obscenities at them and firing a set of magic missiles at each of them. Morthos managed to flick a shield spell into existence to avoid the missile sent at her, but as Drex was hit by the one aimed at him, he instinctively reacted with a Hellish Rebuke, and the ''incensed'' shop keeper became a momentarily ''incendiary'' shop keeper!

	Trying to de-escalte things, Mogadon cast a spell of hold person, locking the now completely apocalyptic ~~Basil~~ into a living rigamortis. Drex, still feeling ripped off from the ineffective identify scroll the day before and now doubly hurt by the crazy potion maker's attack, fired an Eldritch Blast at the held shopkeeper, who was thrown backwards to crash unconscious onto his bed at the back of the shop, the bed moving slightly and exposing the trapdoor beneath.

	Mogadon looked daggers at Drex for his over-the-top response and steps forward with Cormir to hold down ~~Basil~~ as he administered a small healing spell. As ~~Basil~~ came too, he started raving about how everyone was now doomed as the plague would come back! Faced with an obviously unhinged man who was not listening to anything the dwarf was saying, Mogadon head butted him to knock him out again, intending that they leave whilst the man was unconscious. Turning to leave, both Cormir and Morthos suddenly realised that they could smell the unpleasant smell of death - coming from the trap door beneath the bed. Opening it revealed a small cellar - with three mutilated bodies!

The other council members plus the village priestess were summoned and whilst waiting for them to arrive, Paumine descended into the basement, noting that off to one side (behind the steps and out of sight from above, was a small altar, covered with strange symbols and writing. Drex hurries down and checked out the altar whilst Paumine examined the bodies. Drex noted that amongst the rubbish, it looked like there were Abyssal symbols, and he picked out what looks like the name of a demon - "'''Xancrown'''".

Cormir suggests, quite sensibly, that Kadra needs somewhere safe to stay, and proposes that they stay with the knights. Sir Brenarform Steelcrest had been standing close by, and having already had his nose put out of joint by Bjalien, was not in a good mood. At Cormir's attempt to persuade him it was a good idea for Kadra to stay in the knight's fortified compound, he starts to make excuses about how having a woman in the fort would not be good for the moral and discipline of his knights. After getting a lambasting from the righteous dwarf, Drex tries to intimidate the knight into doing the right thing, but only succeeds in making things worse, and the knight suggests that the village sort their own problems out as he and his knights have more important things to do that sort out spats between magic users.

As the fireball faded and Morthos rushed to stabilise her companions, a dwarf stepped towards the evil sorceress Merriath and fired a guiding bolt at her - having recognised a 'bad un' when he saw one. In surprise, Merriath dropped the body of Kadra that she was carrying with difficulty and spun to face the dwarf, who quickly cast a spell of silence, hoping to prevent her from casting spells. Her eyes narrowed in anger at the impertinent dwarf, and in silence, her fingers flickered in fast and complex arcane patterns, as she cast a spell using meta magic to avoid needing verbal components. With the hint of a smug smile, she faded from the dwarf's sight and turned to run. Despite being unable to see or hear her, the faint still fading glimmer from his earlier Guiding Bolt spell have the dwarf enough of an idea to swing his axe, and he in turn allowed a hint of a smile to grace his lips as he felt the axe strike something and a spray of blood appear.

			Meanwhile, happy that his companions were not going to die immediately, and catching shouts that Isperil Lightwind and Paumine Sandlewood were coming to deal with the injured and the fire respectively, Morthos turned and pushed through the gathering crowd, all the time shouting denials in response to half-heard accusations that the demonic looking tiefling must have been behind the fire and general chaos. As he gets through the people and tents, she spots a commotion and makes her way to Kadra's body at about the same time that the dwarf returns having failed to catch the now invisible and impossible to find sorceress. The dwarf dispels the silence he had cast and quickly examines Kadra's body, the tiefling obviously having no clue beyond the fact that Kadra was still breathing. He quickly determines that the single stab wound to her shoulder was probably not enough to kill her, but that the slight stain around the wound implied she was likely poisoned.

			The dwarf casts a spell of healing, then working together, the tiefling and dwarf carried Kadra back towards the still burning house of Kadra and where they could see Cormir and Drex had both been healed by Isperil Lightwind. Paumine Sandlewood, the druid, was also there now, and started systematically putting the fire out using a simple cantrip.
