One day after the Party's sunday adventure across the City of Argentis, Group AG-8 and Group AG-7 are finally having their rematch; this time with a whole audience, comprised of higher-ranking adventurers, silver-star leadership and even gold-star leadership. The fight was quite the spectacle, especially since this time, pushing someone out of the ring wasn't allowed. One fight later (and one Scruffy prevented from acting by continuously knocking him out), Group AG-8 is once again victorious!
Lots of applause later, and some praise given to Captain Ukren Schwerter by his colleagues (a seemingly Half-Tirrdaka Woman, a Tortle woman, a Goliath woman and a Human man with a guard drake), the group was approached by a Dragonborn man called Aldic Dobarum, a member of both the King-Rank and the overarching Leadership Rank of the Union, who gave them praise and made pleasant conversation, praising both them and Ukren. In a bit of a jest, Maylin Aeleni heckled Aldic to challenge the party, much to his reluctance. However, much to his surprise, the party agreed... And soon regretted it. While Dareth Lion'el was able to get in quite a few good hits, the party soon was overwhelmed by Aldic's fire magic. Nonetheless, Aldic praised the party, especially Dareth, for their good work.
Ukren then showed the Party to the quest board, where new quests for the party were available; and as promised by Ukren, now all across The Argentian Republic. After some deliberating, the party took on two quests around the Darkwoods, the woodlands west of the city of Argentis. Before leaving to gather supplies and to meet Eduardo Marqués, the merchant that the party met before they arrived in argentis, as well as the quest giver of one of the quests, Ukren then warned them to not stray off the path, if they go into the Darkwoods.
End of Session.
