DAY 327 (Midwinter)(January)

Today was another day in the DAW for Fenrir and Veddic, but it was another easy one due to the inclement weather. Jenders, Dressdelle's old companion, was also there. He was a tough looking dragon shaman with big leathery wings on his back.

He didn't seem to think much of Fenrir.

At seven o'clock they returned to Spectre Island.

Random seemed to be having supply issues. He needed more food and water but didn't want to bring in too many supply vessels incase it drew unwanted attention. Veddic decided to help with daily multiple castings of 'Create Food and Water'.

DAY 328 (1st Alturiak)(February)

Another day at work for Fenrir and Veddic. Flurries of snow kept them grounded for most of the day.

The only incident was a young female dwarf flying into the city on a giant eagle. She seemed nice enough and she handed over 10 gold as a 'Benevolent donation'. Dressdelle (who was keeping warm on the watchtower roof) told him later he should have asked for a lot more.

He spent the rest of the day talking to Dressdelle, trying to make friends with her and draw out information. You may remember that Random had asked him to find out about the 'Magpie Affair'.

On their return to Spectre Island they found that Rizole had turned up there. You may remember she was a rogue we met back in my Sea Wyvern days down in Chult. She later became a warlock with a bit of a crush on Fenrir. He was a bit wary of her.

She talked to him alone on the cliff top.

'Don't forget you owe the demons a big favour for them pulling your fat out of the fire back in Castle Cormaeril,' she informed him.

DAY 329 (2nd Alturiak)(February)

They dropped Rizole off in town to ask around about the 'Magpie Affair' then went to work.

They were paid today, for their first month's work. Arahel's wages were put towards a small memorial to her in the 'Watch Park' as she had died in the line of duty.

Fenrir took Dressdelle to the Spitting Cockatrice that evening. He tried to charm her but she fended him off with a 'don't be silly young man!'

They had a decent enough evening though and he escorted her home before returning to Spectre Island.

Between him and Rizole they learned the following facts about the Magpie Affair

- Dressdelle is an 'ex' war wizard from Cormyr. The War Wizards are a group of battle-mages and sorcerers loyal to the Crown of Cormyr. They are led by the Royal Mage of Cormyr.

- Whatever happened, it involved a big fight at Castle Bleth where many guards died and also two of Dressdelle's friends. One other escaped

- Dressdelle has been doing community service in Westgate ever since

When he heard about that Random also told them that he remembered something about a thing called the 'Abraxus Affair' a big scandal in Cormyr that resulted in the exile of House Bleth and the Fire Knives to Westgate. How it all connected together though, he didn't know.

DAY 330 (3rd Alturiak)(February)

The lads reported for work as usual. It was a day of high winds and limited flying, so as usual they watched the city from the Watch Tower battlements while drinking endless cups of tea and eating multiple breakfasts and lunches.
