It was the Moonlit King who pressed the claim of Zobeck but has since retired to his tower. She may come to personally press her claim of Zobeck in a year and a day.   Impressed by the Court of Power Metal's decorum, the shapeshifter Freja Owlsdaughter - female elf - gifts most of the party a boon of an expensive goblet and gives Queen Lumi Bracers of Defense.   Elected by the city council to improve Zobeck-Dwarf relations, Lord Mayor Olleck talked of her hesitation of wanting full out war between the shadow fey, urban warfare being especially bloody.   Ondli Firedrake, high priest of Volund and priest of Rava to the dwarves, has been forming an underground resistance with strategically places stores of arms and armor, though he is always need in need of more.   The Red Cloaks, not liking outsiders doing business within the Kobold Ghettos, strike at the long-legs. Asserting their control over the area though they get sighted before their ambush can trigger! Will the heroes be able to take their newfound knowledge and make their way back to Redtower?
