Summary
The party arrived in Red Larch and made The Helm at Highsun their first stop. Rumors pointed to a missing local carpenter — Ilmeth Waelvur. After visiting the town lockup and Waelvur's Wagonworks, the group set out toward Ilmeth's old hunting cabin. On the road, Togar calmed a wolf pack with magic instead of fighting them.
What happened
- The party reached Red Larch and went to the Helm at Highsun.
- Kiara tried to order drinks for the group but didn't have enough coin. Genericus Maximus paid — and made a remark about her being poor. (Kiara hasn't forgotten.)
- Asking around the taproom, the party heard that carpenter Ilmeth Waelvur had been missing for days, and that the assistant at his shop was overworked and cranky about it.
- The party visited the town lockup and spoke with two prisoners: Jack Mack and William Theodore.
- At Waelvur's Wagonworks, a shop assistant suggested Ilmeth might be at his old hunting cabin northwest of town.
- The party left Red Larch heading northwest. On the road they encountered a pack of wolves. Togar used druid magic to calm the animals rather than fight. The session ended on the road, still heading toward the cabin.
Key moments
- Helm drink incident — Genericus covered Kiara's tab and insulted her; tension between them started here.
- Missing carpenter hook — the party's first local mystery in Red Larch.
- Wolves on the road — Togar chose a nonviolent approach with nature magic.
