AD&D Session 2 - House of Secrets

The 3rd of Brussendar, 835 PD
In the wake of the funeral that laid bare the complex tapestry of Daestok's nobility, our companions found themselves on the threshold of deeper intrigue. The 3rd of Brussendar, 835 PD, dawned with a divide—Serra sought refuge in the familiar halls of the leatherworker's guild, leveraging her Guild Artisan background, while the rest of the party nestled in the anonymity of an inn, Ricochet notably absent.
A note, hastily scribbled yet heavy with intent, set the day's course, guiding them to a house that whispered secrets. With a cautious approach, Serra and Bibi, driven by a blend of curiosity and duty, crossed the threshold after a hostess whose demeanor chilled the morning air. The house, a labyrinth of shadows and whispers, became a crucible for trust and suspicion. Koro and Whisper's intentions, veiled in mystery, hinted at a test of combat, a notion that unsettled Serra to her core, urging her toward solitude.
The guild became her sanctuary, a place to ponder the ties that bound her to companions whose motives danced like shadows. The day waned, leaving Serra enshrouded in contemplation, her heart torn between the allure of the unknown and the solace of solitude. The city of Daestok, with its cloaked figures and whispered alliances, watched quietly as Serra navigated the murky waters of trust and deception, her path yet undecided but her resolve unwavering.
