Dunhamati (dun-HAM-aht-ee)

A local criminal male ɛɭⱱɛ called "Moesenaith the Irrational" has taken a young noble girl from Dunhamathi hostage, and fled into the jungle nearby. Dunhamathi is offering a sizable reward for Bishikyi Berth's return and the criminal's capture, before the "Irrational One" violates the young Lady.

A local priestess (ɛɭⱱɛɳ spiritual therapist), upon hearing that a group of able individuals are in town, reaches out to them to help find a religious relic once thought lost.

The relic has already been found, and is in the possession of a religious rival, and another group of priests is on its trail as well.

This priestess, an younger, tomboyish ɛɭⱱɛ named Baṭikmiy Sear has been researching the artifact for decades. Finally, an obscure purchase order for a coffin leads her to believe the artifact was buried with the corpse of a ɛɭⱱɛɳ Lady who may have owned it, and she will pay the adventurers generously to do a bit of grave-robbing. She assures them that, in the eyes of her religious order, no sin will be committed.   Of course, she's not the only one looking for this thing - a golden goblet inlaid with runes of scrimshaw. A rival church of the same god wants it as well, and has dispatched a group of their own to recover it, led by an uncompromising warrior-priestess named Sionedi Boan'n.   Complicating things further, the body (and the artifact) have already been excavated, and are in the possession of a third rival church, this one diametrically opposed to the Baṭikmiy Sear's. The goblet is in the hands of that church's champion, an unyielding were-boar named Becumarta the Tiresome as she attempts to subjugate local villages.

• The sorceress Caswynaeirt the Alluring claims that a comet will soon appear, bright enough to see even during the day, and it will signal the end of the Vicereine's reign. • The Ebon's's Mercy tavern is selling a beer that they claimed has been blessed by the Vicereine herself. • Bedwyrani Muirealle is planning to flaunt her newfound wealth by constructing a lofty building in the center of town. It will be not just bȉnḍű - ʝχ (twelve) but shűḍű - ÿχ (twenty-four) stories tall, so it towers over all others. • A group of hooded and cloaked strangers have showed up in Dunhamathi and seem to be searching for someone.
