Full Report
Yesss, Hello, Hecret Reporting. It doesn’t seem the others are too keen on reporting our illicit activities, but I am notorious and fabulous and have no such silly qualms. If they tell you they were simply too busy, baseless lies!
Looking for work, I was approached by several members of our fine organization to take a little trip to the Continent. That began with Ashen Hawk, Kodzak, Jirel, and Damin, who disappeared strangely enough only to be replaced by series doppelgangers. Truly bizarre and i will comment several times outloud how strange it was. I suspect these are half-brothers of Damin of several ancestries.
Anywhoo, this quest is pulling the band-aid, supporting one side over the other to end the fighting once and for all at the Iron Front that has been going on for years. Personally, I have casually forayed out there, and war is not a very fun clown time. Everyone is so obsessed with death and “living” that they never have much fun. Close to death is when I like to hear people laugh the loudest. Oh, their bellows, nervousness before that final act. It's such a sweet sound.
Anyway, after some chatting, we made our way to the frontline of Gildenwind. Damin, that weird fighter fellow left the groups, is off to swing swords and compare them to the other fighters in his guild and see who has the biggest sword. And if anyone asks, I have the biggest sword, but it's a grower, which makes my sword grow very large if you know what I mean. Wink, wink, wink.
Anyway, as we made our way into the orc camp, we were joined by the bulky Dakin Koghog, The Armcrusher. A mysterious orc that was super friendly to us outsiders.
After several secretive shenanigans, lying to a coalition member named Dawn about our intentions for passage, we made our to the city, mostly as tourists, Maybe as mercenaries? MMMM. Honest, the crime in Gildenwind is AWFUL because before we knew we were ambushed! Oh nooo! Luckily, with some light slaps and wagging of fingers, we shooed those mean bandits away! In fact, we slapped some cuffs on some of them and brought them to our mercery contact, a blueberry demon named Tralgron. And I mean that quite literally, he was made from blueberries. Hell, as we all know, is a bizarre place where blueberry and strawberry demons roam freely.
Anywhoooooo, this FELLOW, haha, he hated me calling him that, but it was so funny. Anyway, to get our mercenary orders, we interrogated these silly resistance members for information, which, upon asking nicely, using proper manners, and saying “please” many times, we went to. A secret JUICE factory in the city itself! We ran along after some chatting to this Juice Lab, where we went in and found a whole bunch of silly cats drinking juice! Hahaha!
It actually turned into a musical number, “Cats Drink Juice!” in which we sang and danced with several silly cats who spoke perfect words common. Unfounteatly, one of the kittens, the smartest and most deranged one, set off a series of explosions that took out the entire building and destroyed the alchemical lab, producing explosives and poisons for the coalition resistance. Also, Dakin turned into a cat that strangely resembles Damin, as if he were turned into a cat. Truly strange orcs are with their magics.
Anyway, after some questioning, the juice drinkers revealed some of the tunnels underneath the city being used by the resistance members, and we relayed this to Yarzug.
Jirel, being keen-eyed and curious, went scouting and discovered the Blueberry Demon Tralgron…was dead!
WHO Could have done such a thing?! With such expertise? Such power! Such strength! I don’t think we will EVER know who it was, for they were like ghosts! WoooOOOooo!.
Also, Charlie had a fun playdate with Kodzak's Lizard Rile. Those two are such good friends; I think more playdates are in order!
