Having disposed of the undead demon crabs living in the tunnels under the manor at Glastonbury, a very common situation, the group decided to make their way to Highgate. As it is the largest settlement on the island it held promise of trade, job opportunities, and a larger selection of fruit-based drinks. On the way they encountered a mostly-naked Wood Elf druid making love to a bush, some giant tiny centipedes, and a horrendous smelling owlbear. All of which they attacked at some point for various reasons. The druid, who they have dubbed “Peen” decided to join their party, despite not being great at combat or social interaction, but damn if he can’t throw a rock pretty alright.
After arriving in town the group found a tavern, checked out a community posting board, and spent the evening doing individual tasks. Falkruun worked on her rockstar status performing at the pub, making some decent money. Lee Lee went to a temple to pray, Ephyer slept for 9 days and Natch made a contact with the less than reputable side of the town via Blind Pete. Their newest member, Peen, decided to follow Lee Lee while disguised as a rat in case she needed help, but shockingly that backfired at a level of failure and hilarity only found in sitcoms.
The next morning, after Lee Lee woke up and found Peen in her room (and Natch saw him getting kicked out) the group reconvened and decided to assist a local brewery with a bandit problem. But first, they did a spot of shopping. A few people got some new armor, they stocked up on supplies, and Lee Lee continued on her own personal quest to create a non-lethal, aerosol-based defence method. After an unusual and unhelpful conversation with a small ground-dwelling animal they decided they would join the next beer shipment to see if they would encounter said bandits.
