After a quick breakfast (-1sp all) we pack up and head out. As we go through the streets of the old district, we are passed by a group of legionaries lead by a subaltern who pass by without incident.

Early in the day we come across four men 300ft in front of us. As we get closer Titania senses evil intent and we immediately attack. Valorian begins to cast sleep but is struck by an arrow before he can finish. Taliesin and Uthman charge forward while Aurelia drops the one who shot Valorian with an arrow in return. Taliesin and Aurelia finish off the last three.
Aurelia traces their tracks back to a tree and after careful searching finds a cache. All told we get:
- 22000CP and 4000SP in bags. (620GP, 124GP ea)
- A chalky white potion cure poison
- 124 XP ea Gold from bandits

We make good time and are able to make it to Turos Quell by the end of the day. We find food and lodging (-1GP).

The day passes uneventfully and we find ourselves at the gates of Siadanos. We stop by the Mercenary Guildhouse to look at the posting board.
Taliesin buys 10 lbs of Comfrey from Temple Row in the Plaza of the Pantheon (-100GP Taliesin). Titania gets 1lb of garlic as well. There is also a Chandler named Sigalo in another shop, a thin bald man with a comb over. We all buy a week's iron rations from him. (-4GP everyone)
We head over to the Merchant Guild and talk to them about becoming a client, but none of us mange to make a good impression and are denied.
We head to the Stone Tankard and find Mandonio and one other tavern worker along with 5 prostitutes, 26 patrons, and a troop of 6 musicians. Barto is not present. There is a closed door leading out of the parlor. Aurelia finds Mandonio and gets Krysean barley beer after greeting him. She flips him an extra silver and then sits down with the rest of the gang while she waits for him to get off work. (-0.22GP Aurelia, -1sp everyone else). Taliesin asks about gambling and is told that you can enter the gambling snug for 5sp.
12 patrons at the table, 2 tavern workers and 5 comely prostitutes. The game tonight is Lucky Sevens, and he looses badly. (-9GP Taliesin).
We head to the baths (-2CP) and then back to the Stone Tankard. We find a noble woman and a priestess of Mityara.
Aurelia lets Mandonio on first base, but is distracted by thoughts of Zelicus, and leaves him disappointed.

Taliesin is downed in the melee, but Valorian is able to quickly stabilize him. As he wakes, he sees a ghostly vision of Saphira begging him to help her. We search the brigands and the surrounding area and are able to find a hiding hole. All told we find:
