Session 08: Days of Summer Part 2 Report

General Summary

The party now with some downtime spend some time within Freeport. They spend two weeks keeping themselves busy learning new skills, crafting items, researching, and finding a crew for when they get their ship The Rancor back in operation.    As the two weeks pass they are having their breakfast at The Scholar's Quill when they receive a message that a retired iron merchant named Ulfgar has work for them if they are willing. He can be found at The Bridgeside Coffee House. The party interested in paying work go and look into the offer. When they arrive they find the old retired Iron Merchant with a peg leg. He tells a tale of how he use to adventure with a wizard known as Amelia Greyheart. He was saddened to hear of her passing and wishes the party to collect her remains at an old Sorcerer's Tower on the northern part of the island they are on. The pay is 200 gp, and the map they receive shows they can be at the tower in 8 hours. Thinking this could be a quick easy job the party accepts.   They quickly gather their belongings and begin to make trail through the tropical forest. The map is very well designed and they have no problems staying on track. They are ambushed by the wild life and the party is battered a bit. As they lick their wounds from a goblin ambush they now must press on in hopes of making the tower before sunset.
