After talking with Kather, she offered up her little getaway as a place to stay while everyone waits for Dria Voxville to make an appearance. He home was there home. However, she did offer the group a series of jobs for them to potentially complete while the pirates were out and about with their own jobs. They were to complete a job in the morning but in the mean time, Jo'Han asked around the space about Dria while Shiloh started running laps. Jo'han was able to learn that Dria was the princess of Divelinson. It was believed that she was supposed to be dead succumbed to a mysterious illness that supposedly took her mother. Shiloh was able to sell the gems he collected to Johanna, the orange gel which allowed some extra coin to be distributed amongst the group.
One was creating a Dark Elixir to help search for a cure for some of the crew who were affected by a mysterious illness. Shiloh and Jo'han worked together and deciphered a few pages out of a book using Jj's notes. Jj was the medic who appeared to have their hands full with 16 members showing symptoms of the illness. They were the ones who retrieved the book, but upon their return they were in a comatose state. A dark black substance lined their skin, their mouths were stitched shut, their eyes wide, skin clammy and cold to the touch. There was nothing known to be like this. They were able to decipher Alchemist Fire, Fake Blood, and Soothsalts. With the ingredients completed they used a black rose from the crater to combine a new elixir of some kind. Shiloh tested each three of them. The first he smelt it, the second one he sipped it, the third he chugged it. Smelling the soothing salts he was able to learn that these were probably the best one to try out on the patients. The black rose salt mixture proved to alleviate some of the symptoms but wasn't enough to eliminate them. It was back to the drawing board but this was a new start.
Erato and Chef took on a second job. Kather was given a treasure map and sent the two off on their way. Chef realizing that no one else was coming with regretted his choices, but prevailed. The two managed to make a half day trip to a large tree. Their first step was to find the X mark's the spot. In doing so they noted the strange growth pattern of the plants that appeared to be moving in an upwards direction indicating something at the top of the tree. Sure enough, upon reaching the top, there was a way down into the tree and below it. They traversed through it to be brought into a room with a skeleton, spider, vines, and more. Before them was a large door with five lock on it. These locks had to match to the correct key that was found on the skeleton. Upon grabbing the key, the skeleton warned them that they must but the right key in the right lock or else. It took them some time but they were able to figure out the puzzle and make their way to the second room. Down below they were able to see large tiles. Chef jumped down and started to move the tiles to eventually form a picture. When the picture was finished a bright light blinded them for a moment before the treasure appeared. A large version of a starknife with a cosmic ethereal appearance to it along with a breastplate and some coins. With the loot collected the two bantered back and forth before making their way back to Kather's.
They all regrouped and sat down to dinner with Kather where they shared with her what they learned and what happened to them throughout the day. The Cosmic Starknifewas brought to her attention and Kather wanted to claim the treasure stating that it was their job to return the treasure to her. They bargained back and forth, before finally coming to the conclusion that she would take the starknife, they would keep the coin and breastplace, and she would by Chef's chain mail off of them. The deal was made and she left them to go to the front of her shop.
