S23: There's Trouble in Norrven

by Alan Hayburne

We reported back to Luca in Faerstow in the rain - blasted weather this is. All else aside, it's the first bed we sleep in for awhile, so the rest is good.
 
I wonder...Should I be taking time in the mornings to pray, like a priest or a champion of a god? Seren gave me no directive of the sort, and...I haven't prayed to anything in so long. What would I even pray for? I couldn't ask for strength, and she already offers guidance unbidden when it's right. Perhaps I could simply offer thanks? Though, I can't imagine her claiming responsibility for my living to see morning - it's not really her...domain?
 
Maybe I should talk to a priest - though it could bring some trouble to ask how to pray to a god that few may know.
 
Luca joins us for breakfast - not a fan of the axebeak it would seem, and when we're all gathered, he call us to the meeting room in the basement.
 
He sounds almost cautious - not the jovial front we're used to with him as we talk about the trip to Norrven.
 
We have a lead on Illan - a place they call the Jack-o-Tavern. The...gangs are getting too organized, and someone needs to disrupt them, and find out why the elves are coming out of the forest. First, though, we really need to make our way to Hraegard.
