Jahan, the demon hunter

December 17, 2020

The massive theater troll turns out to be much more intelligent then what is usually expected for his kind. He lets Jak play a song in troll, and even if it's beautifully performed, it's still simple in his opinion. When he asks what we want from him, Adrian steps up and honestly says that we're going after The Cardinal. The troll doesn't seem to mind this. On the contrary, he longs for the days of yore when the theatre was in use for great performances instead of crime meetings. He tells us to speak with Miz'ri of the Thanor'Thal, Olivier of the Demara family and Gluri of the Bookkeepers. We can find them respectively at The Crossed wands, The Busty Darkelf and The Forge. Sirona asks about some details regarding the crime families meetings, and they find out that there is usually maybe two to four members per family present and the people attending vary from time to time. The Theater troll dose does not want to give any other name for himself. He says we are free to hide inside to eavesdrop, but if we get caught, we're on our own. We're also not allowed to perform any acts of violence inside the theater.
The party leaves and starts planning for their next move. Irdien volunteers to be the one speaking with Miz'ri about hiring bodyguards. She reveals that Miz'ri was the one who told her about Vincent's location. Adrian offers to let Irdien carry the party's money, so she can pay whatever price Miz'ri sets on the bodyguards. Apart from this, the group also needs to find the two men they have been recommended to visit. Gluri should be in the South district, and Adrian knows that a Demon hunter named Jahan also resides there. He wants to ask him for help about the cursed dagger they took from Ilgron in Eldolan. They decide to fetch the foul blade from Adrian's room at the brothel and then lastly try and find Olivier at the Busty Darkelf which should be close by.
The plan gets slightly altered as the group arrive at The Mysterious Bolder and find that Demon Hunter Jahan is already there. He vaguely remembers Adrian and tells him he's tracking an evil presence. As Jak tosses Capper a coin, Adrian leads Jahan and the others up to his room.
He tells Jahan about the dagger and puts the box on a table. Jahan says it's possessed and that he can't extract the demon without going into a trance. As he commences to exorcise the terror, the group starts preparing for the fight.
