The session started with the infiltration group, led by Ankieseth, starting in through a side entrance while the distraction group, led by Raven, knocked on the front door. Raven entered into a surprisingly friendly discussion with Yagrin (I think that was the name) about someone trying to kill Gaedran. After some extremely high bluff checks on Raven's part, he was actually believing them, and told them to keep it quiet.
At the same time, the group consisting of Ankieseth, Izak and Jess was sneaking through the place, and heard a gnome speaking through the double doors. We went down the stairs instead, and came upon a half orc torturing some children. Izak promptly one shotted him with a sneak attack, and Ankieseth looted some stuff off of him before we dropped his corpse into the river. The children cheered, but we got them to keep quiet, and then after asking a few questions we continued on. Ankieseth, who was wearing his angry face at this point, walked somewhat loudly into the room with the gnome, and he took notice. Jess ran into the room and hit him in the face with a knife, and then Ankieseth walked up and backhanded him with a greatsword, knocking him out.
The distraction party, in the mean time, had decided that they didn't much like Yagrin, and killed him. And his dog. Elizabeth and Alla.... Whatever Tenta's character name is did it. But then Raven went and killed the man, which Elizabeth found upsetting for some reason. They began sifting through the guys office, and then went on to sift through his other office, while the infiltration group stripped the unconscious gnome and sent the children to wait with the others in the area where we killed the orc. Elizabeth noticed this and joined us, as Tenta wasn't coming back and Spider went to bed. We used her rope to leave the gnome hanging unconscious over a vat of low concentration acid, and then headed off toward the boat that Gaedran was supposed to be on.
Izak dropped nimbly onto his ass through a hole in the back, and was almost eaten by spiders, but he, Jess and Elizabeth managed to kill all of them. We searched around for a bit, and then found a secret passageway into another lair, which we followed, and found our man. He proceeded to monologue, but Jess got impatient, and tried to throw a knife at him, but he magically stopped time using mystical cutscene powers and summoned a fucking alligator. The place was kind of a mess for fighting, with a big hole in the middle, but we did pretty well. Ankieseth shot Gaedran after he shot Jess, Izak snuck around, and Elizabeth almost fell in the pit of sharks while trying to hit the alligator with a hammer. Jess chucked a knife at Gaedran and tumbled through, so the jackoff quaffed a healing potion on his turn while the alligator tried and failed to eat the halfling. Elizabeth hammered the alligator, but then the lizard got pissed and bit her, dropping her in one shot. It was about this time that Izak took off his scarf and used it to drop Gaedran from 10 feet away like fucking Kratos, and then Ankieseth tried to keep the lizard from dragging Elizabeth into the water and sharing her with the sharks with fairly mixed results. Jess and Izak tried to bring it down as well, but only Jess managed to hit. The thing tried to run away, but then got eaten by a shark. Serves it right.
Ankieseth stabilized Elizabeth and Gaedran, and then we used a healing potion to revive her so that she could handcuff Gaedran after getting some more loot, including one as yet unclaimed healing potion. We looked around, got a big chunk of loot including the queens brooch, which has a 1200 gp reward out for it, and then found the fortune tellers decapitated head in a box. It talked to us, but Ankieseth was having none of it. Elizabeth seemed fine with it though, and lifted the head to find a glowing deck of cards. Ignoring Ankieseths advice to not take an intelligent magic item as level 1 characters, the ghost and the party spoke for a while about some destiny and oncoming chaos and oaths to the city nonsense, and then we went back upstairs.
The kids had been using the gnome as a pinata, but we got them to leave him alone for long enough to question him. He didn't know anything though, so Ankieseth cut him down, handed Elizabeth her rope back, and then cut him open, reached in to grab his intestines, and tossed him into the vat of acid. This acid was low concentrate, and used to dissolve fish guts. It started doing a number on the gnome, but Elizabeth didn't seem to like this. She and Ankieseth engaged in a philosophical debate, mostly for Gaedran's and Izaks' benefit, as Jess had fled the room when the guts had come out.
After a while, Ankieseth got bored, and question Gaedran while Elizabeth pointlessly attempted to save the gnome's life. Gaedran eventually gave up what Ankieseth wanted to know, and then Izak punched him in the face. After that, we grabbed the children and left the warehouse.
Once outside, we found the place in utter chaos, with all kinds of shit and fire and griffin riders flying through the sky. A crier announced that the king was dead, and that the queen had taken rule of the city, and that was where we ended off.
