The Thrappled Lemmings sat around their campfire and chewed the cud. The fight in the crypts had been hard, The crypt itself had been dangerous with pools of all kinds of noxious substances and toxic gases everywhere. As they discussed the dungeon, it became even deadlier and their opponents tougher. This would surely be a tale to dine out on (+1 Story Point).
The day dawned clear, and Sir Thiebault headed out to hunt. Lysanthir headed off towards the ruins to search too. By the end of their respective hunts, Sir Thiebault had killed several beavers and had pelts to sell when they returned to Haitabu. Lysanthir had found a small box containing a Congealed Strand.
Then it was time to set off back to Haitabu. Sir Thiebault led the way.
"Trust me, I'm a knight," he announced when the others queried the direction they were taking. "We are trained leaders and I am leading you in the right direction."
It was then up to Fulrad to navigate the way through the marshlands that Sir Thiebault had led them into. They emerged the other side smellier, muddier and much more in need of a bath, but it was clear that Fulrad had a better sense of direction than Sir Thiebault.
Upon returning to the town, the Thrappled Lemmings were able to sell Sir Thiebaults pelts for 4 Marks, and sold the spare equipment they had for 2 Marks more.
Wido enquired about the name on the bracelet they had found. Griselda was not a usual name and he soon found his way to the door of Griselda the baker's daughter, a woman who was famed for her floury baps.
"Oh my goodness!" she exclaimed. "I lost that bracelet ages ago and was so distraught because it was my mother's. I wonder how it got all the way over to that Delve. Thank you so much."
She gave Wido a big, floury hug and returned to making dough (+1 Story Point, and a new Friend).
Later, in the tavern, Onesipe heard some newly arrived merchants talking about an old ruin near Utstein Marknad. Apparently it had been taken over by some strange creatures that were making life difficult for the village (new delve added to map).
